2025 Vision Boards
Where: YMCA Community Hub – 805 W. Franklin St. Boise, Idaho 83702
When: Wednesday, January 15th, 10:30-12:00pm
Join us at the Community Hub for some time to reflect on 2024 and begin shifting our focus on 2025 and some areas we would like to spend more of our time on. If you have never made a vision board, the idea is quite simple. We create a poster of images gathered either from magazines, photos we have, drawings, coloring, however to reflect areas we wish to focus on in the new year. This can be a time for health and wellness goal settings, or personal goals you wish to achieve outside of the YMCA. Vision boards create a nice visual for goals and is fun to do and work on with accountability friends.
Paper will be provided, please bring any craft supplies you wish to use along with any old magazines or articles for inspiration to look through and cut from.

ForeverWell Ambassador Volunteer Program
Support is the common thread connecting all the different stories of impact that unfold at the Y. Whether it’s the gift of time, talent, or treasure, we are grateful for all the support we get from our community.
The Y offers a wide variety of activities that center on helping active older adults engage their mind and body through recreational programming. Our ForeverWell Ambassadors are instrumental in achieving this goal and making a difference in the lives of our aging population throughout the Treasure Valley. Our ForeverWell Ambassadors connect people to people, people to resources, and ensure our membership continues to have a sense of belonging, feel connected to their community, as well as staying mentally and physically active.
We are seeking 5-7 ForeverWell Ambassadors at each of our Branch Locations. Includes Downtown YMCA, West Boise YMCA, Tomlinson South Meridian YMCA and Caldwell YMCA. Follow the link below to inquire.
