Volunteer of the Year Award Presented To YMCA Camp Kern Supporter
Bill Klapper received award of appreciation from YMCA Camp Kern
[Oregonia, OH 4/01/14] – The YMCA of Greater Dayton is pleased to recognize Bill Klapper as the YMCA Camp Kern volunteer of the year.
Bill first came to Camp Kern on a walking tour of all 485 acres and from that moment, he was hooked. One of his favorite spots at Camp Kern is the Tree house village at the Brisben Center.
Last October Bill joined the Camp Kern Board of Directors; he is also serves on the Arctic Dash Committee. He brings endless amounts of enthusiasm and energy to our board. Bill has been sharing his excitement with all his friends and fellow church members at North Fairfield Baptist.
We are very excited to have Bill Klapper as part of our Camp Kern family and thank him for his support and action on behalf of our Y family.
The award was presented during the YMCA's 143rd Annual Meeting at the David H. Ponitz Center at Sinclair in Dayton on March 13th. The event raised over $22,000 for the YMCA's Annual Campaign and consisted of a silent auction, dinner and a program where volunteers and staff were recognized for their contributions to the success of the YMCA of Greater Dayton.
