Joanne Rafferty Wins our Guilty Pleasures Story Slam!

Joanne Rafferty won our Story Slam with her tale of how a Guilty Pleasure led to a rather embarrassing altercation with another YMCA member. Joanne won a prized pint glass and has earned a slot in our Grand Slam this coming November, when she'll have a chance to compete with other winning storytellers for the title of Best Storyteller in Lancaster.

We heard fun stories on a range of "guilty pleasures," a few of which included: smoking marijuana, going through people's personal belongings, eating a box of Krispy Kremes, enjoying a cup of tea, watching a bat crawl up a shirt, watching reality television, eating brownie batter, and lying.

Our next Story Slam will be Tuesday, March 24 and the theme is "Good Vibrations." Order your tickets HERE.
