The code of conduct’s primary purpose is not to be punitive, but to clearly communicate in advance that negative behavior carries consequences. The YMCA strives to maintain an atmosphere in which competition, fair play and gracious winning or losing exist under the umbrella of the YMCA’s Christian heritage and mission.

YMCA skateboard competition

The Y will be hosting the second annual Skateboard competition this coming weekend for those with kids or those who just want to watch.

The next Shaun White or Ryan Sheckler could very well be spending their afternoons at the North Rutherford YMCA.

The center will host its second annual Skate Park Competition beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday. The competition is open to ages 7-18.

Have fun.

YMCA tailgate party tomorrow

The YMCA is hosting a tailgate party tomorrow for LaVergne and Smyrna, and all are invited.

The North Rutherford YMCA will host a tailgating party from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. in its parking lot before the game. It is the second year the YMCA has hosted the event. Last year, more than 1,000 people showed up.

"It will be a good time for fellowship before they go out and start hollering at each other," said Mack Barrett, a YMCA board member. "The Y is doing their part to be a good neighbor. It's just one of the many things the Y does to bring the community together."

The event will feature a DJ, food from Jim 'N Nick's Bar-B-Q and inflatable games for kids. While Jim 'N Nick's is offering the food for free, donations will be taken for both schools.

Looks like it will be fun.

While on the subject of High school football. Is there anyone out there who would like to do some basic posts on the school scene, and school sports in Smyrna? You could do it as individual submitted articles, or become a regular poster here at This is Smyrna, TN.
