The Y‑12 Employees’ Society (YES) is a nonprofit corporation chartered in August 2001 to enhance morale of Y‑12 employees by organizing recreational, charitable and community service activities. Since that time Y‑12 employees and the community have realized a number of benefits. Examples include:

  • Sporting and recreational events such as annual softball leagues, golf tournaments and whitewater rafting
  • Trips to New York, Biltmore Estates and Harrah's Casino
  • Company picnics and holiday parties
  • Discounts to area vendors and attractions
  • Establishment of the on-site Y-12 Company Store
  • On-site Weight Watchers at Lunch program for employees
  • Fund raising events to support Mission of Hope, area tornado victims, domestic violence centers and military troops stationed abroad

YES is managed by a board of 12 directors elected annually by the membership. Officers are elected by the board.

Membership is free to all Y‑12 employees. Members may participate in any team sports, trips, events, vendor discounts, and activities sponsored by YES with proof of membership. Membership cards are distributed annually. To request a card or report a lost card, email Naila Howell or call her at 865.574.1481.
