We are excited to announce the start of the Wilton Kiwanis Pumpkin Patch Sale on September 21st! This fun event is not just about pumpkins; it represents the Kiwanis Club’s commitment to the community and the Wilton Family YMCA. All net proceeds from this sale will be donated to the Wilton Family YMCA’s Flood Relief Campaign, a vital role in helping us recover from the devastating impact of the historic flood that struck our community on August 18th and 19th. The storm inflicted considerable damage to various areas of the Y including Kiwanis Pond, the beach, pavilion, baseball fields, paddle courts, archery range and our beloved 50-meter pool.

In the face of such challenges, we are reminded of the incredible spirit of our community. We want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to the Wilton Kiwanis Club for their generous contributions over the years. Their support has been invaluable, starting with the donation of Kiwanis Pond back in 1972, which has served as a cornerstone of our Y for decades.

We invite everyone to participate in the Kiwanis Pumpkin Patch Sale. Your involvement is crucial as we work together to “Restore, Rebuild, and Recover.” Let’s show our solidarity and commitment by coming out to support this fundraising effort. It is this spirit of giving and collaboration that strengthens our bonds and inspires us to come together during challenging times.

We are sincerely grateful for the unprecedented contributions by the Wilton Kiwanis Club, which significantly reinforces the Wilton Family YMCA’s unwavering commitment to youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. This generous support will not only help us recover from the flood but also enhance our future programs, restoring our vibrant community where everyone is welcome. The Heart of Your Community needs you more than ever!
