Member Alert: YMCA To Make Improvements

Beginning Aug. 19, the Middlesex YMCA will closing some of its facilities for maintenance and improvements.

The Middlesex YMCA on 99 Union Street in Middletown, will be beginning renovations of its facilities beginning Friday.

Both pools will be drained, cleaned and refilled which will necessitate their closing from Aug. 19 at noon until Sept. 6 at the regular scheduled time.

The basketball gymnasium will also be closed while the court is being cleaned and refinished. It will close Aug. 25 and will reopen Aug. 31, depending on the weather. The curing process is sensitive to humidity and if the weather doesn't cooperate it might take longer to cure so keep that in mind if you plan to use the court around that time.

For those who use the Fitness Plus locker area, the showers and sauna will be closed for a week while they are cleaned and repaired. They will be closing beginning Monday and reopened on Aug. 29 at the regular time. The lounge area will still be open and Fitness Plus members will have access to the fitness locker rooms.

If you plan to use the facility, please keep in mind that while the staff will do their very best to keep everything on schedule,  the times and dates for re-opening may change while maintenance is being completed.
