Honoring Governor Cooper’s latest executive order, our Y remains temporarily closed to general membership. We are hosting outdoor Group Exercise classes and have opened our pools on a reservation-only limited basis.
We look forward to welcoming back our members soon, and we are grateful to all of our members who have stayed with us and fueled our efforts to deliver critical emergency services to children and families across our community.
THANK YOU TO OUR CAUSE-DRIVEN MEMBERS!
You are enabling us to lift up our community like never before.
