My relationship with the YMCA began about 50 yers ago at the Alamo Branch YMCA located at 1730 E. Commerce street in San Antonio, Texas. I was the Director of the Alamo Branch YMCA after the retirement of Mr. Odie Davis, who was a great leader of the YMCA. In or around 1976, I wrote a proposal for the YMCA of San Antonio to revenue Revenue Sharing funds to construct a new YMCA in Pittman-Sullivan Park. This facility today is known as the Scott-Davis YMCA.
While I am incredibly proud of what the Davis-Scott YMCA does in the community, I can also say I am a new member of the Branch and use the outdoor walking track twice a week. I live more than 15 miles away and actually pass several YMCA's on my way to Davis-Scott. While my history of my association with the YMCA is rarely known, I am proud to have been an integral part of its continued success in San Antonio and Bexar County.
