Wellness Upgrades Coming to the Alexander Y

We’re excited to share a series of upgrades across the Alexander Family YMCA designed to enrich the member experience and strengthen our community. Improvements in progress include upgraded group fitness spaces, a reimagined wellness floor and an enhanced Kid Zone to better support families. We’re also making thoughtful updates to our open, public areas to boost functionality and create more opportunities for connection. Every change reflects our commitment to providing a welcoming, dynamic environment where wellness and community thrive.

KID ZONE

Our new, improved Kid Zone space is open! With three distinct rooms to separate kids by age, we are able to watch children from 6 weeks to 10 years of age.

Kid Zone Care is the YMCA's free drop-off child care service for Y members, designed to help you enjoy your workout knowing your child is safe and well cared for. It is available for children on your membership and each session lasts up to two hours.
