Here for You! Serving the Community!

Dear Y Family,

The health and safety of our members, staff, and community is our top priority. Given the current attention and concern around public health and safety, we want to keep you informed about how the Y is proactively working to support community well-being. Each week, we will be providing an update letting you know what we are doing to keep our Y Family, members, program participants, and staff healthy and safe.

The YMCA of Snohomish County is comprised of six branch locations, 40 program sites, and our Big Brothers Big Sisters affiliate. Here are the updates for this week:

As a member of our Snohomish County community, we remind you to: Stay home when you are sick or not feeling well; coughing, sneezing, and/or higher than normal temperature.

Stay home when you are sick or not feeling well; coughing, sneezing, and/or higher than normal temperature.
Wash your hands frequentlywith soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the restroom, after your workout, before eating, and after blowing your nose or covering your sneezes and coughs.
Prioritize hand washing.Hand sanitizer helps lower the spread of germs and viruses, but only use hand sanitizer when soap and water are not readily available.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
Encourage family, friends, and neighbors to take part in these practices.
Alert Y staff members if our facility supplies of soap, hand sanitizer, or cleaning spray is low.

These updates can also be found on our Prevent the Spread Germ & Viruses Page located on our website, and members will receive push notifications of updates via our mobile app.

Here at the Y, we believe our communities are stronger when we come together. When we work together we can keep our families, friends, and neighbors safe and healthy. As we lead the efforts to keep our facilities safe and clean, we hope that you join us and help prevent the spread of germs in our facilities and in our community.
