Emelia, Iliza, & Sara's Story "I really want to be an Olympic gymnast or a track star...or a swimmer."PROSPECT PARK YMCAFAMILY & YOUTH PROGRAMSAt the Prospect Park Y, we’ve found so much more than a gym—we’ve found a place to grow together.Sara: As a parent, I love that the Y has given my children confidence, friendships, and a sense of belonging. It’s a space where we can be healthy together as a family. Whether we’re exercising side by side or cheering each other on, the Y brings us closer in the best way.Emelia: My favorite thing is doing gymnastics with my awesome coach, Coach Devonte—he’s taught me so much since I was five! I also love running on the track with my dad. When I grow up, I want to be an Olympic gymnast, a track star, or a swimmer. Maybe all three!Iliza: I love swimming the most, but I also do gymnastics and track. I’ve made great friends here like Connor and Willow—we run together, play ping pong, and hang out when we need a snack. I don’t think I want to be in the Olympics, but I definitely want to keep coming here to have fun and play sports.For us, the Y is where health, happiness, and family time come together. It’s where we move, dream, and grow—one practice (and one cartwheel!) at a time.
