Held annually in memory of long-time Oneida member Don Connelly, who suffered from Post-Polio Syndrome, the YMCA of the Greater Tri-Valley acknowledges members in Oneida and Rome who, like Connelly, use the Y to achieve significant goals and refuse to give up. 

In honor of Don's service to the USO, join us for an unforgettable evening at our WWII-themed dinner celebration! Experience the vibrant spirit of the era with a night filled with Big Band music and lively Swing dance. Dress in your best 1940s attire and be ready to dance the night away as we celebrate the courage and camaraderie of this historic period, which Don devoted his career to. Don’t miss this chance to step back in time and create lasting memories!

All proceeds for this event support the YMCA's ability to provide scholarships to children and families who are unable to afford life-changing programs and services.  Our commitment is to ensure the YMCA is for all, regardless of ability to pay.
