  • Temperature Checks- Staff and members will receive temperature checks before entering our facility.

If your temperature is over 100.4, you will be required to leave the facility and return after being symptom free for 72 hrs. 
  • Personal protective Equipment For All Staff- All staff will be required to wear face coverings while serving members. Members are required to wear a face covering when at the facility EXCEPT when engaged in physical exercise or while training.

  • Cleaning- We have deep cleaned the facility and updated our cleaning procedures. We will also be closing our facility during the day for three hours of deep cleaning Monday- Friday. You will see all of staff cleaning throughout the day to provide a clean and sanitized workout space. 
  • How often is the Y and the equipment being cleaned? Staff will clean and disinfect all high touch areas frequently . Members will be asked to clean the machines and equipment before and after use. Staff will clean all areas in between reservations. A deep clean of all areas within the YMCA will take place every night after closing.

We've ensured our facilities meet the highest standards for cleanliness and safety, and we have modified our procedures and programs to facilitate safe social distancing practices.

How Are You Ensuring The Y Does Not Become Too Crowded?
