"This is My Family; I'm Happy to be Back"

The YMCA’s of the Suncoast reopened to members on Monday, May 18 with modified access to branch amenities. 

“There are three things in my life that are pivotal: family, church and the Y. You can’t live without a healthy body, a healthy soul, a healthy mind and a healthy heart and those three things just kind of balance themselves out. One doesn’t work without the other for me. This is my family. I miss them. I’m happy to be back. The Y is part of my community,” tearfully says Hernando County YMCA member Rosemary LaLuz Covyeau. 

When you come back to the Y, you can expect new safety guidelines. You will be required to reserve a time slot for the wellness center, group exercise classes, lap swim, and tennis courts. You can do so by using our app, website or calling your branch directly.
