About the "Y" Club
The "Y" Club is a community and school service organization. Associated with the Kentucky YMCA, the "Y" Club aims at bettering the individual, school, community and world as a whole. Its goal is the personal and spiritual development of character, leadership and group skills of each member. Members participate in club service projects, as well as help plan and attend social gatherings. Members of the "Y" Club also attend KYA (Kentucky Youth Assembly), a mock Kentucky State Legislature, and KUNA (Kentucky United Nations Assembly), a mock United Nations, plus other state held youth assemblies. This year's club (2006-2007) marks the 12th year of its existence at Lexington Catholic High School.
