REOPENING WITH CARE AND SAFETY!
We are so happy to welcome you back to the Y.
We are thrilled to have seen so many of our members who have visited our YMCA so far. It has been GREAT to see so many familiar faces. We understand and know that not everyone is ready to come back to the YMCA yet. For those still not ready, we have plenty of virtual offerings on our Beyond Our Walls Page and through or Member’s Exclusive Virtual Y for everyone to enjoy.
Y Cares Financial Assistance is also available to all current qualifying members of the YMCA of Greater Nashua. More information about our financial assistance program can be found on our Membership Page or by downloading the Y CARES application.

What the YMCA is Doing to Keep Us All Safe
Our #1 Priority is to Make Our Facilities as Safe as Possible When We Begin Reopening.
Our facilities are maintained with the utmost care, cleanliness and safety in mind. Although some of the spaces may look and feel a bit different when you visit the Y, the adjustments we’ve made to our facilities will help make it safe for everyone to enjoy the benefits of the YMCA.
Below are some of the adjustments we have made:
-
We have quadrupled our daytime cleaning crew.
-
There are more sanitizing wipes in the wellness centers and common areas; and we have increased hand sanitizers throughout the buildings. We ask that all members use the cleaning materials provided to wipe down equipment before and after their workout.
-
Our cardio and strength equipment are now either spaced 6 feet apart or have been taken out of service to promote social distancing.
-
We have installed plexiglass screens at our Welcome Centers.
-
We have increased all staff training to ensure new State of NH Guidelines are understood and being followed.
-
New Member Engagement Specialists have been added throughout our YMCAs to assist with any questions members may have.
-
We have removed all group seating in our public areas to discourage group gatherings. (There will be seating for those that need to take a rest.)
-
We have removed all YMCA provided personal equipment such as yoga mats, board games and magazines.
-
All staff will be wearing masks, when in public areas.
-
We will do mandatory, but brief health screenings for everyone entering the building to keep us all safe.
-
Staff will be asked to stay home if they are sick.
We have used resources from the dozens of sources including: NH Dept. of Health & Human Services; Nashua’s Public Health Dept.; the Centers for Disease Control; and YMCA of the USA.
As more information is made available regarding new offerings and other updates on service, we will share this through an email to you, on our social media channels, on our website and through the media.
