Are you a teen that demands more of yourself? Do you hold yourself to higher standards and expect excellence and success? Do you have lofty dreams and the drive to accomplish them?
Leaders' Club may be the right place for you!
Leaders' Club is for teens that are interested in building their leadership skills while gaining valuable experience through volunteerism and aspects of physical education. More importantly, Leaders' Club is a family!
What is Leaders Club?
The GWSY Leaders’ Club program is for students in grades 6 thru 8. It is an exciting and productive program that focuses on community service, social development, leadership training and physical development. All members play an active role in the Leaders’ Club and are responsible for achieving personal growth through goals defined by each member and the club.
Who Should Join?
Students in grades 6 thru 8, who enjoy physical
activity, participating in community service projects, working with younger youth and who
are striving to be Leaders are encouraged to
apply. Leaders must be a role model to others;
therefore, it is required that the Leaders
maintain a minimum 2.5 GPA. All Leaders
are expected to maintain physical fitness and will be asked to demonstrate skills and lead
events. Candidates must enter with a positive
attitude displaying the YMCA Character Traits of Caring, Honesty, Respect, Faith and
Responsibility.
What do we do?
Each member of the club strives to become a community leader through various service projects and trainings. Teens attend weekend
rallies, social activities and fitness events. The training classes offered are to benefit
the members through developing skills and the knowledge to use these skills. Each Cleveland County Family YMCA
