Volunteer Spotlight

“How can I help?” were the enthusiastic first words spoken to me by our superstar volunteer, Clara Horvath, as she arrived to help out at the Kids Triathlon event recently. 

“She showed up early for her shift and during the triathlon, she volunteered at the awards table - where she congratulated the kids on finishing the triathlon, and awarded them their medals.  She was uplifting and cheery throughout the entire day, and had packed everything up and put it away at the end before I could tell her not to worry about doing that!” said Eric Natwick, Youth Development Director. Clara shared that it was “such unbelievably good fun to share in the excitement of the children on their great athletic accomplishment!

The Door County YMCA is proud to have members like Clara, who are eager to help and give back. Volunteers are hard to come by these days and when you hit the volunteer jack pot, others are sure to notice and join in the volunteer Spirit with great people like Clara.
