GAMBLE-NIPPERT YMCA HEALTH TIP
OF THE MONTH

A quick and easy way to take in 100 fewer calories is to watch the calorie content in the beverages you consume. You might be surprised by the number of calories in a soda, coffee drink, or alcoholic beverage. Limit the number of times you have these beverages every week, and choose sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon or lime, hot or iced herbal tea (plain or with a small amount of honey), or low-sugar beverages whenever possible.

Congratulations to the Barracudas swim team for being runners up in their division. We would also like to congratulate all the swimmers that took first place at the meet.

GATORS SWIM TEAM
The Gators Swim Team is taking a well deserved break after competing in the Southwest Ohio YMCA League Championships. Megan Dechering, Michael Dechering and Brian Walker all placed in the finals. Brian Walker was the high point scorer for the team.
Many of the swimmers here at GNY have practiced hard this summer and worked on all their strokes.

Thank you for joining us on the Gator swim team, the novice swim team and in the lessons this summer. Swimming is the sport for a lifetime, and we hope to see all of you continue swimming here at Gamble Nippert YMCA.
