Each year, as our camp season ends and we shift into fall, we take time to focus on improvement projects here at the South Shore YMCA. If you received a survey request from us during the year, thank you for your honest and constructive feedback, which helps us prioritize our improvement efforts to better serve you.
As the next phase of our Health & Wellness Reimagined Project, we are updating our cardio equipment during the week of August 26, 2024! We hope you enjoy this state-of-the-art equipment, and please ask our team if you need assistance.
