The Y's Seventh Grade Initiative provides free memberships for every seventh-grader in Chester County.

The fifth-annual YMCA of the Brandywine Valley Chester County Corporate Championship to benefit the Y’s Seventh Grade Initiative will be held on October 6 at The Old Course at Stonewall. George Zumbano, of Gawthrop Greenwood, PC, a presenting sponsor the last two years, participated in last year’s event on a beautiful fall day, which raised over $40,000 for the Initiative.

Registration is currently underway for the two-person team, better ball competition. Space is limited, so companies should not wait to register.

All proceeds from the event benefit the Y’s Seventh Grade Initiative, which provides free membership for every seventh-grader in Chester County. Y memberships enable those boys and girls to develop healthy habits, and gain the character assets needed to avoid risky behaviors and succeed in school and life.
