Peter Gilgan Family YMCA reminders
NEW Access Gates and
Turnstiles
During September, the gate and turnstiles will be closed intermittently. Please remember to bring your membership card with you every time you come to the Y. Visit the membership services desk to update your card or to get a replacement card. Beginning In October, you will need your membership card each time you want to access the building.
Scent Smart and Allergy Aware
Many people are sensitive to perfumes, colognes and other scented products. Please refrain from wearing them at any time in the Peter Gilgan Family YMCA.
To help create a safe environment for people with life-threatening food allergies, we also encourage you to only eat nut free snacks and food in our building. If you suspect any allergic reaction, please contact a YMCA staff member immediately.
