A site is expected to be announced soon. The group looked at about a dozen possible sites, having earlier eliminated the old Emporia Elementary School on South Main Street. A programs and membership committee is surveying the community to determine what programs are wanted and needed by the community, according to Jennifer Prince, committee chairman. This committee will work closely with the new director to develop programs. Applications are being accepted to be reviewed by a personnel committee to hire a director, hopefully, by March.
Contributors can pay their pledges monthly or quarterly for three years, annually or at one time.
Some contributors will be recognized with a plaque. Donations and pledges can be sent to The Family YMCA of Emporia-Greensville at P.O. Box 1013.
