Bank Midwest is pleased to announce a $20,000 Community Fund donation to the Sioux Falls Family YMCA in support of the construction of the new Treehouse at Camp Leif Ericson, an exciting project designed to enhance outdoor experiences and learning opportunities for youth and families throughout the region.
The Treehouse will serve as a unique gathering and activity space where campers can explore nature, develop confidence, build friendships, and create lasting memories. The project reflects the YMCA’s commitment to youth development and providing meaningful experiences that foster growth, leadership, and connection.
“At Bank Midwest, we believe strong communities are built through investments in organizations that positively impact the lives of children and families,” said Rick Rysavy, Market President. “The Treehouse at Camp Leif Ericson will provide countless opportunities for young people to learn, grow, and experience the outdoors in a fun and engaging environment. We are honored to support a project that will benefit generations of campers to come.”
Camp Leif Ericson has long been a destination for outdoor recreation, education, and personal development. The addition of the Treehouse will further expand the camp’s ability to provide innovative programming and memorable experiences for participants of all ages.
The donation is part of Bank Midwest’s ongoing commitment to strengthening the communities it serves through investments in projects that support youth, education, health, recreation, and community development.
