STEPtember 2025 Challenge Recap: See Who Stepped Up!
The YMCA STEPtember Challenge 2025 brought members and staff together to stay active and build healthy habits. See the top finishers and staff standouts who stepped up to reach 300,000 steps this month!
This year, our STEPtember challenge encouraged YMCA members and staff to reach the goal of taking 300,000 steps in the month of September—about 10,000 steps a day!
We’re excited to share that so many members and staff took on the challenge and pushed themselves to keep stepping all month long.
Congratulations to our Grand Prize Winner: Gina C. from the Downriver Family YMCA!
