By delivering a wide range of services, from the familiar group exercise and swim classes to childcare, the Livestrong program for cancer patients, and the extraordinary Noah’s Anchorage facility downtown for homeless and runaway youth, the YMCA has earned a unique place in the heart of our community. For executive director Craig Prentice, being awarded Best Health Club means more than ever during the pandemic because “during these difficult times, the YMCA is trying to rebuild and be a cornerstone” for Santa Barbara. Our readers believe they are succeeding.
