This week, the Princeton Family YMCA plans to launch “Project Jump Shot”, a $30,000 capital campaign to upgrade the Dodge Gymnasium which was constructed more than 40 years ago, in 1972.

The “Project Jump Shot” campaign will provide resources to purchase four new backboards, winches, wall pads and two new scoreboards.

The Project Jump Shot Campaign Cabinet includes board members Bradley Ackerman (Princeton), Vicky Corrodi (Princeton), Will Dove (Princeton), Ashley Henderson (Princeton), PJ Jayachandran (Princeton) and Bill Rue, Jr. (Skillman). The committee will seek support from Y members, program participants, the general public and local businesses. Limited scoreboard sponsorships are available.

The campaign is set to launch the week of February 23 and will run through the month of March.

To make a donation, volunteer or learn more about the YMCA’s campaign and membership opportunities contact Denise Soto, Development and Communications Director at dsoto@princetonymca.org. Online contributions may be made on the YMCA’s website: princetonymca.org/donate.
