Effect on End Result
Successful performance of the job duties by the Wahoo Assistant Coach can have a major impact on the overall effectiveness with which the Riverbrook Regional YMCA and the Wahoo team accomplish their goals and objectives through:
The Riverbrook Regional YMCA has been an integral part of the fabric of our community for over 50 years. The seeds of the Y were planted in 1956 with the Wilton Kiwanis Club’s purchase of the property that would become the home of the Y less than 20 years later. The Riverbrook Regional YMCA was officially chartered in 1972 when the first phase of the main building was completed.
Since, the Y has grown in membership and services as the community has looked to the Y for swimming lessons, health and fitness programs, senior activities, youth and adult sports, early childhood educational programs, afterschool child care, summer day camp, volunteer opportunities, and a values-based environment where everyone is welcome. Some civic leaders have referred to the Y as one of the “building blocks” of the community.
