Waynesboro YMCA Offers Free Showers to Those in Need - NBC29 WVIR Charlottesville, VA News, Sports and Weather

Six days after the storm and some people are still without power - which means cold showers.  The Waynesboro YMCA found a way it could help.

The YMCA opened its doors, but more importantly its showers in response to those in need.  It has been offering free showers since Monday to anyone who is without power.

More than a dozen have already benefited.

YMCA Director Jeff Fife said, "Saw that there were still a lot of people out there, that their homes were dark, no AC, probably had already used up all their hot water.  So we wanted to give them an opportunity to give them a hot shower here at the Y."

The Waynesboro YMCA always has hot water with or without electricity thanks to recently added solar panels.
