The Eugene Family YMCA is thrilled to invite you to Walk It Off with the Y, a decade-long tradition of encouraging movement, health, and fun throughout the summer! Join us for weekly raffles, guided & independent walks, and family-friendly fun!

 

Join our Pre-Party at the new Y!

Monday, June 24 | 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. | 600 E. 24th Ave.

We can’t wait to get the fun started with you at our first-ever pre-party! This is a fun, get-to-know-you event on the new Y’s Spencer Terrace, our covered outdoor workout studio with views of Spencer Butte. Pick up your Walk It Off t-shirt, meet Y staff, check out the new Y facility if you haven’t visited us yet, and grab fun swag! We’ll be joined by title sponsor PeaceHealth and Barry McGuire, one of the hosts from 99.1 The Beat of Eugene, will be spinning throwbacks. We’re PUMPED!

Olympic Gold Medalist and 2014 University of Oregon grad Phyllis Francis will be at the Walk It Off Launch Party on June 26 with Hunter Communications
