What do we mean when we talk about learning loss in early childhood education? What, exactly, is being lost? Is it possible there's little to worry about?

We’re so excited to be re-opening our branch facilities and to welcome you back on Wednesday, July 8th!

The safety of our members and staff is our top priority. We’re following guidelines from the CDC and local health officials to ensure that our YMCA meets the highest standards of hygiene and safety.

Everything you need to know is available on our Reopen page here: https://www.hockymca.org/reopen

On Wednesday, the following facility areas will reopen:
• Fitness Centers & Strength Training
• Selectorizer equipment in our Gymnasiums to accommodate social distancing protocols
• Indoor Group Exercise at a limited capacity*
• Indoor Pools in Franklin and North Attleboro at a limited capacity*

As we return together – the way we interact with each other will be different. But rest assured we are committed to creating a welcoming, supportive community focused on safety and your well-being.

*Open swim times and indoor group exercise offerings will be published on Monday in our Reservations system and on our branch schedules pages.

Thank you!

Thank you for supporting us as we support those facing challenges in the 15 communities we are proud to serve. Our emergency response efforts have achieved amazing milestones this week!

➡️We have served 108,410 grab and go meals to kids & families in Milford, Bellingham and North Attleboro. This is made possible by the dedicated work of our staff coupled with the generosity of so many in our community that have supported our efforts and believe in what we are doing.

➡️This week, we surpassed 10,000 bags of groceries distributed since March each Wednesday at our three branches. These bags of food – valued at $50 each – help fill a critical need for so many local families, individuals and seniors. We will continue to be there for our neighbors when they need us most. No registration, no questions. Just nourishing food for those who need it.

We are proud of this mission work and couldn't do it without the support of our loyal members, donors, staff, volunteers, partners and the community who are helping us be there when people need us most. hockymca.org/food-access

Thank you for staying with us.
