Summer Water SafetyAfter a long and blistering New England winter, the time has finally come to walk in the sun, ride the waves, and take a dip in the pool. For all of us at the Emilson Y it means opening up the Outdoor Center, a place for families to cool off in our three pools, play, grill, and breathe in the outdoors together.
As beaches and pools open, boating activities launch, and people host backyard barbeques with pools, water safety must be a priority. To have a safe experience in and around water, we recommend the following precautions:
Supervision - Designate a responsible adult to actively watch when children are in and around water.
Communication – When there are multiple adults present select one person to be in charge, don’t assume.
Buddy System – Adults and children should swim with a buddy and in an area with lifeguards present.Never swim alone.
Learn CPR – In the time it might take for paramedics to arrive your CPR skills could make a difference in saving someone’s life.
Worst Case Scenario – If your home has a pool, even a small wading pool, and your child goes missing,check the pool first. Seconds can make a difference.
Learn to Swim – Enroll non-swimmers in formal swim lessons, children and adults.
All of us in Aquatics look forward to welcoming you to all that the Emilson Y has to offer during the summer months and we are hoping for a season filled with sunny days and fun.

New Aquatics Policy:
TEST * MARK * PROTECTAt the South Shore YMCA we are committed to keep-
ing all patrons as safe as possible while swimming. As
such we will be implementing a new protocol in our
Aquatics Department called Test * Mark * Protect. All
children under 14 will be given a swim Test. Based on
the swim test, or their age, individuals will be given a
colored bracelet to Mark what areas of the pool they
may use. Using this system will help us Protect the
children who use our pool.
Swim test results will be stored in our system and members will receive a colored
membership tag, to bring with them to the pool to receive their bracelet. This
will allow a convenient way to know each child’s color and swim ability each
time they arrive at our pool or the Y. Swim tests will not need to happen every
time you come to swim unless the individual or child wants to try for a higher
level or the swim ability has changed drastically.
For questions or more detailed information regarding this program,
please contact the Aquatics Department:

Helping Children CopeSaturday, August 17; 9:30–11:00 a.m.
For Youth ages 4–10, accompanied by a parent/caregiver
Young children have deep feelings about what's happening in their lives, but often lack
the words to match. Would you like your child to gain some practice and confidence in
sharing their emotions — both upbeat and more challenging ones — with you? If so,
come join us at a free, 90 minute story and art workshop at Laura’s Center for the Arts.
Children (ages 4-10) and their parents/caregivers will share precious time together.
Through art and imagination, they will take part in amazing conversations about how
best to deal with life’s stresses. Every family deserves that gift.

Germantown Neighborhood CenterSince 1982, the Germantown Neighborhood Center (GNC) has been providing critical support services, needed resources, programs
and workshops to the youth and families of the Germantown and neighboring communities of Quincy. Located within one of
Quincy’s largest public housing developments, the GNC serves a community of mostly low-income, single-parent households and
works with support and guidance from the South Shore YMCA to identify and develop strategies to address community needs.
Our youth programs give kids a safe environment where they can grow and learn positive values that they will carry with them for a
lifetime. Our after school youth programs run from September to June and include: Sports Blast, Fun Size Fitness, Reading Round Up,
Dancing Divas and Girl Scouts to name a few. School vacation camps run during February, April and during the summer months for
grades K–12. Women’s programs are designed to get women out of the house and build relationships with other women who are in
the same situation. Childcare and dinner are often provided. Women are encouraged to bring the whole family while mom engages
in skill-building workshops with other women. Our Family Lifelong Learning programs encourage literacy and educational achievement
through our GED programs, or Teen Success programs. Our food pantry serves residents all over the City of Quincy with food assistance.
We are constantly trying to raise more money, add more programs, and do all that we can to help. Our programs and services work
toward giving community members the skills, confidence, and resources to take action and improve their lives.

“For my husband the Y has been a life-changing experience. Unemployment can be hard
on a family, especially if you are actively looking for work. The Y has been a stress reliever
for my husband and our entire family.”
You may know of people in our community whose experiences are similar. Having an impact like this is one reason
that the South Shore YMCA is investing in a new facility in Quincy. The new Y will provide an expanded Early Learning
Center where working families can have peace of mind that their children are safe and thriving, a health & well-being
center for all ages, teen programming, and vibrant spaces where families can participate together in healthy activities.
The Y’s collaborations with other health care providers will make this facility a focal point for community well-being.
Construction has begun, and we expect to complete the new facility by October of 2013. Follow the progress on our
website and learn how you can help the Y lead the way in youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.

MY Y STORYPersonal Training
When I came to the Y my workouts consisted of
the selectorized circuit machines and some cardio. At that time I was only
able to do 1 push up. That is when a personal trainer approached me
about bringing my current workout to the next level. Within three months
of working with my trainer I was able to complete multiple boot camps
each week. With my trainer’s knowledge, motivation and direct attention on me, I now have completed a Tough MudderObstacle Challenge, Reach the Beach 200 mile relay, RuggedManiac, Ruckus and am running a 10 mile trail race this weekend!
