YMCA

The Young Mens Christian Assosciation, am I wrong? Most of them have swimming pools, basketball courts, gyms, in some cases handball courts. I have a lot of childhood memories of my father playing handball, watching the hard navy blue ball flying through the air and observing my father jumping around chasing the thing. *chuckles* The YMCA that I was a part of hosted all varieties of local events, such as homeschooling groups, sports meets and teams, and one thing that I particularly remember, an Art camp...I spent two days working on a masterpiece that had a moon landscape with aliens and spaceships doing all sorts of stuff...at the end of art camp they displayed all the pictures at the local library, prominent on top of the bookshelves for all to see. We went back to reclaim it a month later to find that it was gone. I can only hope that it was able to make someone, somewhere, happy. Daven Ardea
