The Challenge

A primary challenge for the YMCA of the North Shore has been improving member awareness regarding schedules, special events and other notifications. Having content readily available and displayed effectively within the YMCA’s expansive facilities was difficult. The YMCA was looking for a better way to present, manage, and control messages dynamically to avoid missed communication opportunities and eliminate cluttered bulletin boards.
