🎙️ COMMUNITY PULSE: THE YMCA SERIES – EPISODE 6
Featuring: Norm Johnson
When most people hear “YMCA,” they think of a gym—but the Family YMCA of Black Hawk County is so much more. From infant care and preschool programs to youth sports, aquatics, wellness initiatives, camps, community outreach, and programs for older adults, the YMCA touches lives at every stage of life.
Welcome back to Community Pulse: The YMCA Series! Every third Tuesday at 2 p.m., Executive Director Norm Johnson joins us to share the programs, partnerships, and people making a difference throughout Black Hawk County.
This month, we’ll spotlight the incredible variety of opportunities available through the YMCA, including early childhood education, school-age care, youth sports, aquatics, healthy living programs, and community outreach initiatives. We’ll also get an update on preparations for the Black Hawk YMCA’s 3rd Annual Triathlon coming September 13, 2026, at George Wyth State Park.
Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, athlete, volunteer, or someone simply looking to connect with others, there’s a place for you at the YMCA—and today we’ll explore why.
