ABOUT MOVE FOR A MISSION
You are invited to join us for a community fitness fundraiser that combines the excitement of a Spin-a-thon with the energy of a Bootcamp Challenge to support LIVESTRONG at the YMCA, the Darien Y’s free program for local cancer survivors.
You can choose the activity that works for YOU: pedal with our spin instructors OR take the bootcamp challenge with our trainers. Both activities will take place simultaneously, allowing us to maximize both participation and funds raised for our life-changing free LIVESTRONG at the YMCA program here at the Darien Y.
Participants will fundraise through our easy-to-use online platform. We promise it’s simple and straightforward, and we will walk you through it every step of the way!
Take advantage of Early Bird Registration – only $25 to register before September 7!
As of September 8, registration increases to $35.


ABOUT LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA
The Darien YMCA’s LIVESTRONG at the YMCA program is a free wellness program designed especially for adult cancer survivors. The program helps participants:
- Rebuild strength and endurance
- Improve physical and emotional well-being
- Reduce cancer-related fatigue
- Connect with others facing similar challenges
- Receive ongoing support through our Alumni class
“Cancer took a lot from me, but LIVESTRONG at the YMCA helped me take it back. Thanks to the generosity of donors and sponsors, I found strength, support, and hope when I needed it most.”
– LIVESTRONG at the YMCA Participant
So far 33 local cancer survivors have found renewed strength through LIVESTRONG at the YMCA – with your help we can continue to grow that number!
