Big things are happening across our YMCAs in November! To help you get the most out of every workout, we’re installing brand-new treadmills and climbers, and at some locations, we’re adding new strength equipment too.

These updates are part of our ongoing commitment to keep your Y experience fresh, safe, and motivating. While equipment is being delivered and installed, some fitness areas may be temporarily unavailable. We’ll do our best to minimize disruption, and we can’t wait for you to try out the new gear once it’s ready! You can scroll down to learn more about the new machines.
