The Fanwood-Scotch Plains YMCA is excited to announce the expansion of its offerings and will be holding an 8-week program session this Spring. The Spring session will run from May 3 to June 27, 2021 and online registration for programs begins Monday, April 19 at 9:00am.

This is the Y’s first full 8-week program session since its closure last March due to COVID-19, and it plans to increase its offerings for youth, teens and adults. Highlights of the Y’s Spring programming include: swim lessons for toddlers through adults; youth and teen sports programs such as Middle School Running & Conditioning, Tae Kwon Do and Youth T-Ball; 1:1 and small group fitness programs for teens; a Fitness Reset program for those looking to start or restart an exercise routine, and much more.

“We continue to bring back the programs that our members enjoy and meet community needs, while placing an emphasis on the health and safety of all who walk through our doors,” said Tracy Crane, associate executive director of the Fanwood-Scotch Plains YMCA. “With our updated practices and procedures proving effective over the past year, we are ready to expand our offerings and kick off a great Spring season and beyond.”
