Dr. Saltzman started participating in the Y in Boca Raton, Florida at 8 years old swimming and playing basketball.

The YMCA of Snohomish County and the Everett Public Schools have been working in partnership to support students and their families since 1901 when the Everett High School Basketball team began using the Y for their workouts. For generations, Everett Public School staff and administration have provided their skills and leadership on YMCA volunteer boards and committees including the YMCA of Snohomish County Board of Trustees.

The YMCA is a cause-driven organization focused on three key areas: youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. The YMCA believes a strong community can only be achieved when we invest in our kids, our health, and our neighbors. Its programs, services, and initiatives enable youth to realize their potential, offer families ways to have fun together, empower people to be healthier in spirit, mind and body, welcome and embrace newcomers and help foster social responsibility. In Snohomish County, the Y has been serving and strengthening the community since 1901.
