๐Ÿ”จโœจ We're Pressing Pause to Level Up! โœจ๐Ÿ”จ

Next week, our branch will be closed for our annual Enhancement Week!

During this time, our team will be hard at work deep cleaning floors and pools, painting, organizing, dusting, and refreshing our facility from top to bottom. These improvements help us maintain a clean, welcoming, and enjoyable environment for all our members.

Did you know? Our association has 7 branches, and we alternate Enhancement Weeks so members still have opportunities to stay active while their home branch is closed.

๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ‹๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ While we're closed, visit one of our sister branches, including Jennersville YMCA or West Chester Area YMCA. Check out the class schedules and try something new, or find your favorite class offered at a different time!

๐ŸŒ Visit ymcagbw.org to explore schedules and programs across the association.

Thank you for your understanding as we invest this time in making our facility even better. We look forward to welcoming you back to a refreshed and revitalized branch soon!

๐Ÿ’™ Thank you for being part of our YMCA community.

We would like to thank Dr. Jim Knox for his informative and inspiring presentation on how the body works and changes as we get older, especially within our senior population.

His message reminded us that aging does not mean we have to stop being active or give up on working out. With the right approach, regular exercise can help us stay strong, healthy, mobile, and independent at any age. ๐Ÿ’ช

โญ๏ธ A special thank you goes to our staff members, Rita and Steve, and our board member, Aguida, for all their help in making this possible. We appreciate everyone who contributed and those who attending!





Thank you to Gallagher for investing in our community. ๐Ÿ’
