A Special Message from the Regional YMCA of Western Connecticut

For the past 150 years, the Regional YMCA of Western Connecticut has been an integral part of the fabric of our community. We are excited to share our plans with you about our future and upcoming improvements.

As you are aware, we conducted a member survey this spring. The response to this survey determined that improvements need to be made to the facility in order to meet the growing health and wellness needs and to reflect the increasing demands of the community. Our goal is to serve our members' best interests while making the most of our limited resources.

Given those limited resources and the current footprint of the building, a tough decision had to be made that requires a complete renovation of the two racquetball courts to make designated space for functional fitness areas and spin classes.

Other planned improvements include: relocation of the child watch center to our current spin area to provide more space and an improved environment for children and parents, replacing the studio floor, refinishing the gym floor, repairing a lane line in the pool, and refurbishing and refreshing the lobby area. 

We will begin these renovations and improvements, as well as doing a thorough deep cleaning, during our annual "shut down" week, from August 29th thru September 6th. Our goal is to have the work completed and ready for use by September 7th. 

We hope you will join us in celebrating our Y's fresh new look! If you have any questions, please contact me.
