News from the RYE YMCA
November 2021
We wish you and your family a happy Thanksgiving! 
We will be closed Thanksgiving Day and open from 8am to 8pm on Friday, November 26. No youth or registered classes November 25-28.
We are currently open on Sundays until 4pm and starting November 14, we will be open on Sundays until 6pm.
Mask Update
Masks are strongly recommended, but no longer required, for vaccinated individuals. All unvaccinated individuals ages 2 and up are required to wear masks. We adjusted our policy last week because the COVID threat in Westchester County was lowered from substantial to moderate. Since then, it has risen again to substantial. For now, we will not require vaccinated individuals to wear masks but are asking that you wear masks in the hallways and during check-in. All staff are required to wear masks.
RYE Y NEW AQUATICS DIRECTOR READY TO DIVE IN
The Rye YMCA is pleased to announce the appointment of Tim Corcoran as its new Aquatics Director. Tim joined the staff just as the Y’s two pools closed due to flood damage from the remnants of Hurricane Ida. Nevertheless, he dove into his new role with enthusiasm, helping his co-workers with flood recovery, finding alternate locations for Y swimmers, and making plans for when the pools reopen.

Born in Stamford, CT, Tim and his three siblings were avid swimmers by the time they reached high school. As a teen, he was a four-time All American in the 100 Butterfly and 200 medley relay. He was also a national age group champion in both the 100 and 200 Butterfly and two-time Junior National silver medalist in both events as well. Read more
