For the past few weeks, we have been highlighting our Volunteer of the Year winners from our 2023 Keystone Awards. Today, we introduce you to Michael Noday. He is a Pickleball and Group Ex Volunteer.
Michael has made volunteering at the Y a high priority in his life. Now that he has retired, you will find him setting up the gym for many group exercise classes, welcoming new members and engaging all around him. His friendly personality draws his classmates together and he shows newcomers what to do and what to expect. He’s never without an encouraging word and doesn’t hesitate to show his support for many of the activities. Mike is ME Lyons’ biggest advocate for Pickleball. He has brought together a group of people and created a community, in fact, they call themselves a family. Mike’s dedication to the Y makes a true positive impact on the lives of our members. Thank you, Michael, for embodying the values of the YMCA.
