Step into an unforgettable evening of timeless elegance, entertainment, and community at the 2027 Winter Social! After a sold-out event in 2026, we’re excited to welcome our community back for another incredible event at the Neal Center YMCA! Enjoy dinner, great company and the lively entertainment of dueling pianos as we come together to celebrate and strengthen our community.

More than a night out, the Winter Social supports the Neal Center YMCA’s Membership for All program, helping ensure that everyone in our community has access to the opportunities, relationships and resources they need to thrive.

Since opening its doors in January 2019, the Neal Center YMCA has provided opportunities for Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility throughout Cumberland County. Through Membership for All, financial assistance is available for YMCA memberships and youth programs so that financial circumstances do not prevent individuals and families from participating. This important work is made possible through the continued generosity of our community.
