I
n light of the uncertainty created by the increased impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19), closure of schools and recommendations of Government and public health organizations, we have decided to
cancel all programming
at the Fergus Falls Area Family YMCA.
As of 12 noon today, group fitness classes, swimming lessons, sports programming, Interactive Learning Center, water fitness classes, child watch, etc. will be temporarily suspended. We will continue to provide school age child care for registered participants in need of care. The pool will remain open until 7:00pm tonight and will be closed beginning tomorrow (Tuesday, March 17). Although we are closely monitoring the situation, we are aligning with the Fergus Falls School District’s plan to remain suspended through March 27. We recommend that you continue to monitor our website, Facebook, and mobile app for updates and possible changes.
Keeping our community healthy and safe is our number one priority. We ask that anyone who is experiencing any illness or symptoms or may have been in contact with someone experiencing symptoms to continue to practice social distancing, self-quarantine, and appropriate hygiene.
We ask families to please be aware that we are trying to give the community options. With schools being closed, it is even more important to keep the Y and members safe. As such, we will be monitoring youth facility usage closely.
- Youth must be at least 10 years old to be unaccompanied in the building.
- Children under 15 years old are welcome in the facility for a maximum of 3 hours unaccompanied.
- Children must be 15 years old to utilize the upstairs fitness facility and downstairs weight room.
We appreciate your understanding. The Fergus Falls Area Family YMCA is committed to serving the needs of our community. We take these decisions very seriously. They are made with the most current information we have and a passionate desire to do what is best for the community we serve.
If you have any questions, please contact us. We will be posting updates and changes to our
website

Stay healthy!
