Ogallala, Ne - The former Ogallala Goodall Recreation Center was rebranded and has new leaders since being handed over to the YMCA of Scottsbluff late in 2024. New CEO Conrad Bostron says it all came together rather quickly, "It came together very quickly over the summer last year working with the city of Ogallala and the city manager (Kevin Wilkins)." Bostron says " The community acceptance has been fantastic. It's one of these places where you can walk in and make little incremental changes to something that's already successful and already working well and just see an exponential return from that little incremental change."
The new YMCA is having a open house this Thursday, January 30."You can come check out the branch, check out the facilities at no charge. Use the pool; enjoy a couple of different classes if you want, and maybe have a few refreshments. Then get some information about membership. We're gonna do it in two increments. 10am-Noon our focus is going to be seniors citizens. They're at the "Y" at that time of day anyway for some classes. We have some great water aerobics that day and great facilities to show off" said Bostron. The YMCA will then hold another open house from 3pm - 5pm for the community as a whole and families.
Derek Beck spoke with Bostron during the Sandhills Spotlight on Z 93.5 Country on Tuesday morning. POST PODCASTS sponsored by NP Kubota.
