The 41st Annual Montclair Run honors the memory of longtime YMCA of Montclair Staff member, Betsy Smith. Betsy proudly served the Y for 25 years as a fixture at our Welcome Center, where she greeted members and staff with her famous Betsy smile. She was deeply involved in the Montclair community, riding in the Y's float in the annual 4th of July Parade, co-chairing the 2017 1891 Gala, and running in the Montclair Run. We ask this year's participants to wear pink or sparkles in Betsy's honor.
