The YMCA of Edmonton's Story

We're contributing two trophies that capture the spirit of healthy competition fostered by the Edmonton YMCA in the 30s, 40s and 50s.  In those days, two courts were dedicated to handball, racquetball and squash games.  The silver bowl mounted on a wooden base was given for a provincial tournament by the York Leland and Royal George Hotels.  We've also sent a badge that commemorates a city-wide fair sponsored by the YMCA for public school students in grades one to eight. 

These artifacts show how the YMCA has worked its way into the hearts, memories and scrapbooks of its members.
