This honor is awarded to an individual that continually goes above and beyond for the YMCA.

Betsy embodies these characteristics and has been an active YMCA board member for past 22 years.

In that time, Betsy served on the Marketing Committee and provided valuable input and ideas to our organization. For the past 10 years, Betsy has been the HR Committee Chairperson and has also served on the YMCA Executive Committee for ten years as well.

Professionally, Betsy is recently retired from the private banking industry and spending some well-earned time traveling.

Thank you, Betsy, on behalf of the YMCA of Greater Dayton for your service to not only the YMCA but the entire Miami Valley community.

The President’s award was presented during the YMCA's 144th Annual Meeting at the David H. Ponitz Center at Sinclair in Dayton on March 12th. The event raised over $20,000 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.
