Spier Family Issues Giving Challenge At Hockomock Area YMCA

Greg and Kathy Spier of Foxborough are issuing a $25,000 challenge grant to support the Hockomock Area YMCA’s Food Access program, a part of the Y’s annual Reach Out Campaign. The Spiers and the Spier Family Foundation will match every donation made September 14 - 21 up to $25,000. 

The Hockomock Y’s Reach Out program provides confidential YMCA scholarships and program subsidies to people in need to experience the YMCA. These offerings include child care, camp, the food access program, and programs like swim, sports and gymnastics as well as adult chronic disease programs.

Greg and Kathy Spier of Foxborough

As a non-profit organization, the Hockomock Area YMCA exists to help people be healthier, more confident and connected to each other and their communities. The Y is guided every day to remain focused on how best to respond to the emerging needs of its communities as individuals and families face financial struggles. In 2023, $3.3 million was invested by the Hockomock Area YMCA to ensure that everyone has the chance to thrive by providing scholarships to people in need in the Y’s 15 town service area to experience YMCA programs and services regardless of ability to pay.

“We are grateful to be part of communities full of caring people committed to improving the quality of life in our neighborhoods,” said Jim Downs, CEO of the Hockomock Area YMCA.  “I am so proud of the work our Y continues to do in partnership with others to raise critical funding for our annual Reach Out Campaign.  Funds raised allow our Y to be here when people need us most.  We are only able to do this through the philanthropic support of a caring community.”

“Greg and Kathy Spier have been passionate, steadfast supporters of our YMCA and their generous challenge will help ensure that we continue to be here for our neighbors,” added Downs.   

The Spier family’s impact in our local communities runs deep.  Their legacy at the Hockomock YMCA includes the naming of the indoor and outdoor aquatics centers as well as the new splash park at the Y’s Invensys Foxboro Branch, along with Greg and Kathy’s parents, Sonja and the late Alex Spier. 

Greg Spier shares, “One of my mentors is the late Don Rodman.  Don taught me the importance of being philanthropic. He always said how important it was to be philanthropic in the areas where we work and the areas where we live. What better place to be philanthropic in the area than at the Hockomock Area YMCA. The Y benefits thousands of children and families and we’re so proud to be a part of it.”  

“The Y is a fellowship that brings people together and provides joy to so many people,” says Kathy Spier.  “As our father Alex always said, we want to leave the world a better place and that’s what we are going to do.  Please make a gift to the Hockomock Y between September 14 and 21 and we will proudly match it as part of this giving challenge.” 

“Thank you in advance from the bottom of our hearts for making a gift and for your generous support,” says Greg Spier.

Every gift matters. To learn more about this challenge and ways to make a gift, visit www.hockymca.org/spier-challenge

With Summer Around The Corner, Water Safety Should Be Top of Mind

May is National Water Safety Month. When the weather starts to get warmer, the pools, lakes, oceans, rivers and other bodies of water start calling! While swimming can be a very enjoyable activity this summer, it is important to remind all parents and caregivers of the importance of water safety. We are sharing these tips on how children can stay safe in and around water.

Hockomock Y

Tip #1: Make sure children know to always ask permission before going in or near the water.

Teaching your children to be water smart is the first step in water safety – be sure they understand the importance of asking permission before going in or near the water. 

Tip #2: Never swim alone without a water watcher.

When children swim, ensure they are actively supervised at all times. Teach your children that they should only swim in locations where a lifeguard is on duty, or where a responsible adult agrees to watch the children in the water without distractions.

Tip #3: Supervise your children whenever they’re in or near water.

Whether it’s bath time or taking a dip in a pool or waterfront, make sure your children are within arm’s reach at all times.

Tip #4: Don’t engage in breath-holding activities.

Children should not hold their breath for a prolonged amount of time while swimming, as this can be dangerous.

Tip #5: Wear a life jacket.

Inexperienced or non-swimmers should always wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket while in or around the water.

Tip #6: Don’t jump in the water to save a friend who is struggling in deep water.

If a child finds their friend in deep water unexpectedly, their natural reaction may be to jump in the water to try and save them. Even if a child is a great swimmer, a panicked person will overpower them, pulling the rescuer under water. The Y’s Safety Around Water program teaches the “reach, throw, don’t go” concept of using a long object to reach for them, and pull them to safety. By using this technique, children can help their friend without compromising their own safety.

Tip # 7: Use four-sided fencing with self-closing, self-latching gates, pool covers, and alarm systems to help prevent children from accessing water unsupervised. 

Water safety isn’t just during swim time. Know the five layers of protection which include: barriers & alarms, supervision, water competency, life jackets and emergency preparation. You never know which layer will save a life.

Tip #8: Prepare for emergencies by making sure everyone in your home takes water safety, first aid and CPR Courses. 

Training in lifesaving skills such as lifeguarding and CPR presents opportunities for us all to take greater responsibility for ourselves and others. The Hockomock Area YMCA offers lifeguard and CPR training programs with full certification. We also babysitting courses and first aid training. The Hockomock Y is offering lifeguard certification courses in June at their branches in Foxboro and Franklin. Visit www.hockymca.org and select Register for Programs.   

All of our water safety tips are located on the Y’s website: www.hockymca.org/water-safety-tips/

As a leading nonprofit committed to youth development, the Y has been a leader in providing swim lessons and water safety for more than 100 years. The Y continues to help youth and adults experience the joy and benefits of swimming, so they can be healthy, confident and secure in the water. There are a variety of programs to choose from, including swim lessons for all ages, water fitness classes, competitive swimming, and family swim times. To ensure that everyone has an opportunity to participate, financial assistance is available to those in need to help cover costs. 

The Hockomock Y is enrolling swim lessons starting May 13th for Summer! To learn more, visit: https://www.hockymca.org/summer-classes/

In addition to learning lifesaving water safety skills, children can increase their physical activity by swimming. Swimming also motivates children to strive for self-improvement, teaches goal orientation, and cultivates a positive mental attitude and high self-esteem. It also teaches life lessons of sport and sportsmanship, so that children can learn how to work well with teammates and coaches and how to deal with winning and losing.

Via Twitter and our subscription to HockomockSports.com, we share the results of the Spring sports competition for Franklin High School on Saturday, May 11, 2024

Baseball = Franklin, 9 @ King Philip, 3 – Final

Austin Campbell picked up the win, striking out 13 and allowing three hits and three runs over six innings. He struck out the side in the first and fifth innings and struck out two batters in the second, fourth, and sixth. The Panthers got off to a good start, loading the bases with no outs in the first. Ben Yuknis hit into a 6-4-3 double play, but it brought in Dom Caccavelli (3-for-4, three runs) with the opening run. Franklin broke things open in the second. Zach Winer started the rally when he was hit by a pitch with one out. Mike Davide ripped a double to left center that scored Winer. With two outs, Caccavelli singled and Henry Digiorgio (2-for-3) singled to score courtesy runner Brad Morin. After Rex Cinelli (2-for-3, two bunt singles) walked, an error brought in two unearned runs to make it 5-0. KP got two back in the fourth. Drew Herlin drew a one-out walk and came around to score on an Aiden Astorino double to left. Astorino took third on the throw into the infield and scored on a wild pitch. In the fifth, Leo Dowling singled with one out and courtesy runner Cole Kotkowski stole second. Max Robison came through with two outs, dropping a single into shallow right to cut the deficit to just two runs. Franklin sealed the win with a four-run seventh. Caccavelli started the rally with an infield hit and Digiorgio drew a walk. Cinelli pushed a bunt past the mound for a hit to load the bases. Yuknis hit a grounder to third that brought in a run. Cole Sidwell lined a single to right to score a second and Lukas Phillip doubled to left to bring in another. Winer would single as well, scoring Phillip with the ninth run. Matt Miller gave up a pair of hits in the bottom half, including a double from pinch-hitter Alex Lufty, but got through the inning without allowing a run.
