Lloyd Arnold Massasoit Yearbook Photograph
Description:
Photograph and brief bio of Lloyd Arnold from the 1949 Springfield College yearbook, The Massasoit. After serving in the U.S. Army from 1944-1946, Arnold received his undergraduate degree from Springfield College and later earned his doctorate from Pennsylvania State University. Arnold’s first full time YMCA position was as physical education director at the Canton (Ohio) YMCA. He served in the Rochester (N.Y.) association, prior to joining the Central Atlantic Area staff as the associate executive for health and physical education. In 1968, he was named on the national staff as the national director for health, physical education, and sports. Under his leadership, there was significant growth in the complexity and breadth in the health and wellness field. Arnold emphasized the individual’s responsibility for their own health as a central philosophy in YMCA programs. He redeveloped the YMCA Aquatic Program and introduced a comprehensive structure for YMCA youth basketball. When he retired in 1981, he was recognized as one of the 10 people in the country chosen for the Healthy American Fitness Leader Award. In 2002 he was inducted into the YMCA Hall of Fame.
