Held annually, the YGB Games is an exciting, fast-paced day of athletic competition that’s also a lot of fun! Teams will compete head-to head in five activities and points will be tallied to name the winners; Center and Industry winners. Fun prizes will be awarded to runners-up. A reception and awards ceremony with food, cocktails and more fun follows the competition. At the end of the day, you’ll go home tired and happy, knowing your workout has helped the Y do the work that transforms our community for the better.
