Woodward Community Media Supports YMCA Gala in Springfield

By Michele Mitchell Nov 14, 2025 | 11:46 AM

On November 7th, the Crowne Plaza in Springfield hosted the annual YMCA Gala to benefit the YMCA of Springfield, a signature event dedicated to strengthening community programs and services. The evening featured inspiring stories, fundraising activities, and a celebration of the YMCA’s mission to promote youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

Woodward Community Media was proud to be part of this impactful event. Two of our on-air personalities played key roles:

  • Sam Madonia, host of AM Springfield on WMAY, energized the crowd as the live auctioneer, helping raise critical funds for YMCA initiatives.
  • Rocki, co-host of The Morning Routine on 98.7 WNNS, served as the emcee, guiding guests through the evening with her engaging presence.

The YMCA Gala is more than a night of entertainment—it’s an opportunity to invest in programs that make a difference in the lives of families across our region. We’re honored to support the YMCA and its commitment to building a stronger, healthier community.
