canton ymca site visit

On Wednesday September 14th our sports administration class visited the Canton YMCA for our first site visit. In our site visit we sat in a classroom and recieved information on YMCA the organization and how the Canton YMCA is ran. We walked thru the lobby area where members checked in. We were shown the indoor pool where aquatic classes are taken, the basketball gym where full court basketball is played on Tuesday nights. There was also an indoor track facility so people could run and a gym with different weight machines and treadmills. You could be a lifeguard, teacher of a class, or work on the staff handling marketing and memberships. What I learned from the site visit is that the Canton YMCA is involved greatly in the community and that there are over 9,000 members at the Canton YMCA alone.
