An analysis done during the 2010-2011 YMCA swim season showed that parents donated 1360 hours to the Jersey Shore YMCA swim program. That blog posting can be read here. When you put a dollar value on that, it comes out to $27,893.60 (the estimated dollar value of volunteer time for Pennsylvania is $20.51 per hour for 2010, according to the Independent Sector, a coalition of charities, foundations, corporations, and individuals that publishes research important to the nonprofit sector).
The Jersey Shore YMCA recognized these efforts by the dedicated swim parents by awarding them this year's volunteer award (picture below).
