New Westport Weston Y Ribbon Cutting Aug. 28, 7pm

The Dedication and Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony for the new Westport Weston Family Y facility will take place on Thursday, Aug. 28, at 7 pm. This special event will involve Y volunteers, donors, staff and members as well as an array of state and local civic leaders and public officials.

The new facility is located at 14 Allen Raymond Lane, Westport, CT. Parking will be available onsite, past the Connector Road leading from Route 33 toward the northbound on-ramp of the Merritt Parkway's Exit 41.

Due to open to members and the community in September, the new 54,000 sq. ft. facility at the Y's 32-acre summer-camp property along the Saugatuck River will be known as the Bedford Family Center, in honor of the Y's founder, E.T. Bedford, and the continuing support of the Y by his descendants.

Constructed at a cost of $38.5 million, the new Y includes a 10-lane, 25-yard lap pool and adjacent warm-water family/teaching/therapeutic pool; a 5,600 sq. ft. Wellness Center with expansive views of the Saugatuck River and wooded Mahackeno grounds; multi-purpose Gymnasium; three group-fitness studios; a Kids' Club child watch area; a cafe for members; five locker rooms, including one for those with dependent care; and other amenities of a modern, family-oriented Y facility.
