The Oshkosh Community YMCA will offer 24/7 access to the 20th Avenue YMCA starting Feb. 1.
There will be access to the wellness center, training studio and indoor walking track all day, everyday for members 19 and older.
To apply for access, members must sign a 24/7 access waiver and agree to abide by our policies, pass a background check, and upgrade for $5 per month per member. The approval process is estimated to take 1-3 business days.
The Oshkosh YMCA is protected by advanced security and video surveillance systems. However, these systems will not provide staffing assistance for emergencies that might arise outside of the regular hours. As such, the YMCA highly recommends that members exercise with another 24/7 approved member when using the facility outside of staffed hours of operation. First Aid Kits and AED’s will be made available.
“Member feedback has been amazing so far. (Increased) access will allow current members to really expand their use of the Y, especially those who have small children and challenging work/life schedules. Members have expressed that being able to use the Y a few hours after close or before opening will make all the difference in their ability to stay active all year long. Flexibility is key. The Y is so pleased to provide this new option and truly support our member’s health and wellbeing.” said Julie Smith, vice president of membership and community engagement, Oshkosh Community YMCA.
