We miss you! It’s been hard being away from the people we care about and who make up the YMCA.
We’re thrilled to share that we will slowly be reopening our YMCA Health and Fitness sites in a phased approach beginning on August 21, 2020. We wish to proceed in a phased and staggered approach to reduce risk and exposure for our staff and members.
In the meantime, the Y is planning on providing FREE outdoor classes at select sites across the region and FREE indoor workout access at select locations through a sign-up process. Until sites are officially open, membership fees remain on hold. More details regarding site openings, dates, and FREE programming will be provided on our website, via social media and through email.
We’ve done everything possible to ensure our facilities meet and exceed the highest standards of health and safety, and we’ve modified our policies and programs to ensure proper physical distancing practices are maintained. As you would expect, this means we’ve modified spaces, access points, traffic flow through our facilities, and more.
Here are a few of the safety measures you’ll see at the Y:
- Reduced hours of operation & building access
- Physical distancing to maintain 2m/6ft between people
- Increased sanitization & disinfection, more hand-sanitizing stations
- Glass barriers at Membership Desks
- Health screenings upon entry
- Single one-way directional entry & exits
- Contactless membership badge scan-in stations
Although the way we’ll interact with one another may look different, you’ll always be able to connect with people, improve your health and wellness, nurture your children’s potential, and help strengthen our community.
We can't wait to see you soon!
Sincerely,
Your YMCA Health, Fitness & Aquatics Team
