Next Steps and other info:
We are making progress on restoring both the Pa Cope and Brookside Pool. We hope to reopen the pools around October 18.
Our members have praised the Carver Center pool for its cleanliness and large windows - as well as the opportunity to see familiar staff and swimmers. See below for details.
  • Lap swimmers may use the Carver Center pool in Port Chester and make reservations through our reservation system. The hours listed are reserved for Rye Y members and the pool is staffed by Rye Y staff. The Darien YMCA is also accommodating our members until we can reopen our pools. (The New Rochelle pool is still closed.) If you plan to use these facilities, please click here for detailed information about their guidelines for visitors.

  • We have received approvals from the state for alternate sites for our licensed child care programs. Programs will start October 4 and registered participants have been notified.

  • The cleaning and first phase of the restoration process on the first floor is complete. The next stage is rebuilding all the rooms. We estimate the lobby/membership area will reopen by mid-November, the classrooms by December and the adult locker rooms by January. These timeframes are our best guess estimates and may change based on the rebuilding progress.
