Harriet and Joe Foster Family YMCA

Harriet and Joe Foster Family YMCA

We want to provide a quick update regarding the temporary closure of our basketball gymnasium.

During a recent inspection, bats were discovered in the northwest quadrant of the gym. Out of an abundance of caution, we have temporarily closed the space while a licensed wildlife removal vendor safely relocates them and completes the necessary inspection and cleaning process.

No other areas of the facility are affected.

The gymnasium will reopen once the space has been cleared and approved for use. We are working closely with our vendor and will share confirmed reopening details as soon as they are available.

We appreciate your patience as we prioritize the safety and comfort of our members and staff.
