I personally support the broader YMCA mission and have contributed to YMCA organizations over the years. In fact, I was recently reminded that I donated a boat to a New Hampshire YMCA camp and provided priority service when needed. I have also previously supported YMCA Camp Belknap, Inc. directly, working with Gene Clark, including reciprocal business dealings and providing preferential consideration in a boat sale.
It is important to distinguish between the broader YMCA mission — which I respect — and specific actions taken by local management that I believe warrant scrutiny.
My position remains focused on pollution, accountability, property rights, and lawful conduct — not opposition to the YMCA mission itself.

Thing is, Randy, it’s hard to know what to believe with you. Your questionable reputation precedes you.
