Free Access This Summer

This June and July, your local Y is opening its doors to the entire community. Join us every Wednesday from 5–7 pm for Community Nights — a free opportunity for individuals and families to experience the YMCA with full member access. No membership required.

Step into the Y for an evening of swimming, group exercise, kids and family activities, fitness, and community connection — with access to the same spaces, programs, and amenities our members enjoy every day.

What’s Available

Guests enjoy member access during Community Nights, including wellness spaces, pools, group exercise classes, gyms, family-friendly areas and more.

Plan Your Visit

Wednesdays in June and July at 5pm

Save Time At Check-In

Stop by the location of your choice on Wednesdays from 5–7 pm and look for the Community Nights check-in desk. A friendly YMCA staff member will greet you and help activate your guest pass. You’ll be asked to provide a few details to create a guest account, and within minutes you’ll be ready to enjoy the Y. All guests must check in at our Welcome Desk, but if you're new to the Y, you can set up a non-member account ahead of your visit to save time check-in. Details on account set-up coming soon!

Group Fitness Classes

Guests are invited to participate in fitness classes during your visit! A schedule will be available at the branch. You can also view our schedule here.

Child Watch

Child Watch for ages 8 weeks to 12 years is available for guests during Community Nights! At check-in you'll be asked to complete a quick child watch form for the safety and security of all.

Swimming at the Y

For safety, youth ages 11 and younger must have a parent or guardian present on the pool deck. Youth ages 13 and younger will also complete a quick swim test and receive a wristband while using the pool area. Don’t worry — our friendly aquatics team will guide families through the process. It only takes a few minutes and helps us create a safe, enjoyable environment for everyone.
