(b)Volunteering
The South Shore
YMCA is an organization founded on the principles of unity and
bringing people together for a common cause. As members of the
Stryper Community, we are working to provide a safe, fun and
nuturing environment for each other. Members who supersede
expectation and volunteer their time for the betterment of our
Strypers Swim Team are the lifeblood of our organisation.
Some volunteers
will contribute hundreds of hours per year on our Strypers Parent
Committee, while other volunteers are able to commit to one meet
per year. Every volunteer is important to our team and its success.
All volunteers are organized by the SPC and Head Coach.
