Update from the CEO

May 2026

Hello Y Members,

As the weather warms and Summer Day Camp approaches, it’s an exciting season at our YMCA. This summer, we’ll be serving more than 185 children each day through our licensed childcare and day camp programs, while also providing an estimated 30,000 meals across our food sites.

Improvements Coming Soon

As we continue to grow and support our community, we’re equally committed to caring for our facility. Starting next week, we’ll begin several improvement projects to help keep our building safe, welcoming, and running at its best.

5/26:

  • All pools will be closed for a clean-up
  • Lobby restrooms will be closed for floor refinishing
  • Lighting controls will be updated in the entire building to improve efficiency
    There will be NO interruption in service
  • Construction begins in the Pool Lounge, where we will be adding a new office for the Maintenance Team

5/26-5/30:

  • Kidzone will be closed as we prepare for its relocation for the Summer.

5/27–5/29:

North Parking Lot closed- Stones replaced and curb stops installed
24/7 users will need to park on the road

Bay City Fireworks

Just a reminder—our annual Bay City Fireworks parking lot fundraiser will take place on Saturday, July 4, this year. By purchasing one (or more!) parking spot(s), you will be supporting our financial assistance program, which provides scholarships for YMCA programs, childcare, and memberships.

Parking passes go on sale Tuesday, May 26th, and can be reserved at the front desk. Thank you for your continued support of our YMCA.

We’re proud of what we’ve built together and remain committed to keeping it a special place for all. Wishing everyone a safe and happy Memorial Day!

*Reminder: We will be closed on Monday, May 25th, in observance of Memorial Day. 24/7 access will remain available during this time.
