CLASS & REC SWIM RESERVATIONS

Reservations are required for Rec Swimming and all of our land and water fitness classes. Click here to learn more.

SAUNAS NOW OPEN

Members can use the saunas in the new Women’s and Men’s Locker Rooms. The steam room in the Men’s Locker Room is not yet open.

REC SWIMMING CHANGES

We are making two changes to our Rec Swimming Protocols:

KEEPING KIDS SAFE IN THE POOL!

During Rec Swimming, children ages 12 and under must wear a color wrist band that matches their swimming ability:

• Red = under 9 and non swimmer (parent must be in the water with them at all times)
• Yellow = 9 and over but cannot swim (stay in the shallow end)
• Green = swim anywhere (if under 9, a parent must be on the pool deck with them at all times)

When you check in you will pick up the appropriate color wrist band at the Welcome Center, according to the child’s most recent swim test in our system. If the child has not taken a swim test, he or she will be given a red or yellow band based on age. Children can test out of their current level by seeing the lifeguard on duty before swimming to take the swim test*.

If a child enters the pool area without a wrist band, he or she will be asked to go back to the Welcome Center to get a band before swimming.

*The swim test consists of swimming 1 length of the pool with rotary breathing and treading water for 1 minute in the deep end of the pool.

REC SWIMMING RESERVATIONS UPDATE

You do not have to be in the same household to reserve the pool for Rec Swimming. Please note that there is a limit of 6 people per reservation slot. If you have 10 people in your group, you need to reserve two slots for Rec Swimming or 4 of the people in your group will not be able to swim.

NATIONWIDE MEMBERSHIP

Members from other Ys now can use our facility. All nationwide members must sign our COVID waiver. Please note that just because we are resuming this aspect of membership, this may not be the case for every Y. For instance, Harrisburg YMCA branches are only allowing Wellness Center and lap swimming use. We recommend contacting any Y in advance that you plan to attend to find out about their current availability. Learn more about Nationwide Membership.
