KEEPING YOU SAFE
Please be assured that your safety is our number one priority. We’re following guidelines from the CDC, health experts and local officials to ensure our YMCA meets the highest standards of hygiene and safety.
What to Bring
You’ll need your membership card or phone with the YMCA app for check in, a mask, water bottle and a towel. Our water fountains are temporarily closed.
Wearing a Mask/Screening
Wearing a mask is a requirement to enter the Y. Beginning November 20, masks will be required while working out.
Cardio Center
You’ll notice that some of the equipment is not in service. This allows us to provide a safe distance between members using the equipment. YMCA staff will thoroughly clean the equipment after each use and rotate the use of the equipment to allow for full sanitation. We encourage you to wipe down the equipment before and after use for extra precaution.
