Connection Through Travel at the YMCA
Read a Y Member's Y Not Wanderers trip story!
Denise Murphy had always wanted to visit Savannah. She also wanted to challenge herself by traveling independently, but the idea of going alone came with some uncertainty.
“I wanted to go on something by myself, but I was also nervous about going by myself,” Denise shared.
When Denise received an email about a YMCA trip opportunity, she immediately saw the potential. The trip offered the chance to experience something new while still having the comfort and connection of a trusted organization.
“I didn’t even know there were trips like this through the Y,” Denise said. “I got an email, and I thought, wow, this is pretty neat.”
For Denise, traveling with the YMCA provided a sense of security. She knew she would be surrounded by people with similar interests and an active mindset, while still having the independence of her own room through the single supplement option.
