YMCA Renovation Updates

A work in progress, but here are your Y renovation updates: 

The first part of the Y renovation project is now complete.  We have now opened the two new racquetball courts for members to enjoy.  The new court space also offers a mezzanine for others to view the games and for tournament play. 

The construction has now moved into the next part of the renovation project, which includes demolition of the pre-existing Racquetball Courts to create new program space and the replacement of the pool HVAC system.  The new floor has been poured to create the two levels of program space in the old court area, the exterior windows have been installed, the walls are up and being painted, etc.  Over the next couple of weeks, the construction will be focused on installing the lighting, flooring and completing finishing touches.  The pool HVAC system has been installed and the pool reopened on Monday, January 9th.

The new program space will include a larger group exercise studio and cycling room, as well as, a specialized circuit training room for all ages. The free weight and nautilus equipment will soon be on the same level with the cardio equipment for your convenience and easy access.

During the renovation process, all Group Exercise Classes will be held in the Mini Gym or in Studio 2.  An updated schedule will be posted for you to check on the new locations of your favorite classes, as well as, the Y member service staff will be happy to answer any of your class schedule questions.

 The YMCA renovation project officially began on Monday, August 22nd, 2011. 

The project timeline is estimated to be completed within 6 months, with the renovation being completed in phases.

As construction moves into each area, other adjustments may need to be made at a moments notice, but we will do our best to give you advanced notice.  We welcome your feedback throughout this process, including any concerns or questions you may have in regards to the renovation.  We look forward to providing you with new space to enjoy!
