Reopening Guide

PREPARING FOR REOPENING
FOR A SAFER US.

We are excited to welcome you back to the Y! Please take a few moments to review our re-opening Safety Policies and Procedures so you know what to expect when you visit the Y. We hope to see you soon!

PLEASE NOTE: Our re-opening plan is based on state and federal requirements and guidelines, the experience of other Ys throughout the country that have reopened, as well as the feedback we received from a recent member survey.

A lot of work has gone into the planned reopening of our Y Facilities. The information on this page will tell you what we are doing to safely reopen our doors to you and your family. You may also jump to our FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS section for more information.

KEEP UPDATED

We will continue to communicate information regarding new regulations or restrictions as they become available via email, Facebook, and this Reopening Guide, so please check back often. If you are a Y member and have not been receiving our emails, please make sure we have your preferred email address here.

A SPECIAL THANKS TO 500 + SUSTAINING MEMBERS

Our deepest thanks to those members who stuck with us, our Sustaining Members, during this difficult time. There is no question that your loyalty has been a crucial factor in our survival since the COVID-19 crisis unfolded. We truly appreciate and humbly thank you.
