FALL 2008
THE SAN DIEGO ARMED SERVICES YMCA Serving 6,000 military and their families each month with free social networking and family bonding programs with the help of volunteers and donors like you.
Paul Hartley 1925-2008 The Armed Services YMCA and the world lost a true gentlemen on August 23, 2008 when Captain Paul Hartley, USN, (Ret.) passed away after a gallant battle against cancer. Captain Hartley, or “Uncle Paul,” as he was known to so many, was truly a man of honor and courage, and, a man who gave so much to his family, his friends and his community. With a twinkle in his eyes and a grin on his face, he was ready in an instant to liven any gathering, including business meetings, with his bugle and ukulele. Captain Hartley, after a very successful 31 year Navy career, continued his love for military families by serving on the San Diego Armed Services YMCA Board of Management and the Board of Directors of the Armed Services YMCA of the USA. Captain Hartley never took “no” as an answer when pursuing assistance for military families. His contributions cannot be measured as they were enormous and, while we miss his humor and his warmth, we will never loose our wonderful memories of Captain Paul Hartley. Executive Director Captain Paul Steffens, USN, (Ret.)
The Armed Services YMCA, the USO, Navy League, and the Fleet and Family Support Center joined together to honor the 2008 Ombudsman and Key Volunteers at the Annual Ombudsman and Key Volunteer Luncheon.

Active Duty Programs Were you in the Gaslamp for Operation Liberty Call On October 3rd at Jimmy Loves? It was the best yet! This annual Fleet Week sponsored event of the Armed Services YMCA offered discount coupon books to San Diego Military, along with spirited military volunteers who brightened up the Gaslamp with their enthusiasm and support of the Armed Services YMCA!
Naval Medical Center The month of September has been very busy at Naval Medical Center. With more than six visitations and on base events, and five community outings, the patients and staff have enjoyed the hospitality and support of the community. We started the month by honoring 9/11 with the 4th Annual Patriot Day Event, where we spent time with the local fire department. Sailfest 2008 with the San Diego Yacht Club and Sports Boat Fishing were also crowd favorites!
