Welcome to The Granite YMCA
Please be assured that the safety of all our members, program participants, staff and volunteers is our number one priority. We are following guidelines from health experts and local officials to ensure that our facilities meet the highest standards for hygiene and safety, and we have modified our policies and programs to facilitate safe social distancing practices. Please continue reading to learn what services are available at your local branch, what to expect when returning to the YMCA, and more.
We are pleased to announce some major changes regarding our reservation policies for many of your favorite wellness activities. We hope these changes allow for greater freedom and convenience while visiting the Y and when using our facilities.
RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR
- Manchester: water exercise classes
- Concord: water exercise classes
- Goffstown: water exercise classes, open gymnastics, pickleball, and badminton
RESERVATIONS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR
- Rochester: group exercise classes and Kid Zone
For activities that do not require reservations, you may drop-in to the Y at any time during our scheduled hours listed on our wellness calendars. If you have any questions about reservations, please contact your local Welcome Center.
The Future of Reservations
Please note that while we are excited to relax our reservation policy, we may consider reinstating reservations in the future to help ensure the best possible experience for our members and the safety of our members, staff, volunteers, and program participants. We will continue to communicate these changes as decisions are made.
For activities requiring a reservation:
- How far in advance can I make a reservation? Reservations may be made up to 48 hours* in advance. Example: If you wish to reserve a spot for Monday at 8:00 am, you may now make a reservation as early as Saturday at 8:00 am. *Please note that starting July 11, reservations will open 49 hours in advance for water exercise classes at the YMCA Allard Center.
- What if I cannot attend my reservation? Members are required to cancel their reservation at least 30 minutes in advance if unable to attend. If you need to cancel less than 30 minutes before the start of your reserved activity, please call the welcome center.
To learn how to reserve your time, please watch the video tutorial or read the step-by-step guide.
The Granite YMCA's Mask Policy
Masks are no longer required at The Granite YMCA. Masks will remain optional based on each individual's personal preference. Any of our members, participants, staff, or volunteers that choose to wear a mask will always have the option to do so and will be supported by our staff and the association.
Since March 2020, The Granite YMCA has diligently followed guidelines from health experts and local officials to ensure the health and safety of our community during the COVID-19 pandemic. As national and local restrictions ease, vaccinations increase, and COVID-19 cases continue to fall, The Granite YMCA has determined that we are ready to move further to more "normal" procedures.
Please be respectful of others’ decisions and comfort levels regarding mask usage. We appreciate you helping our Y be a place where all are welcome, cared for, and respected. The Granite YMCA may choose to adjust this mask policy again in the future in response to illness outbreaks and community spread. We appreciate your understanding and are thankful for your support.
If you have any questions about these changes, please contact your local Welcome Center. Please email our Membership Team at membership@graniteymca.org with any questions or concerns regarding your YMCA membership.
Please note we may follow different guidelines for youth enrolled in child care or day camp programs. If you have any questions regarding these programs, please reach out to your child's program director.
As our members return, we are asking everyone to lead with our core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
