🫧🫧Attention Friends!!!🫧🫧
Pack the Pools is back for a second year on June 19, 2026! 1 week from today! It will be from 6-8pm. This is a one-night-only group exercise event for all fitness levels that will be happening simultaneously at all four of our water park locations (South, North, Northwest, Andover) and at the Hutchinson YMCA (which is where we- McPherson- will be). It is best described as a full-blown group exercise water park takeover.

Pack the Pools included 3 rounds of back-to-back water group exercise classes that are 30 minutes each. Several classes take place at the same time during each round in different pool/lazy river areas. It is up to you 🫵 to decide which class you want to jump into each round.

Bring a friend to this event. It is going to be a blast!

Attention all members!!! Please read below!

Our lap pool heating system is not in the best shape at the moment and our temperatures will be fluctuating but mainly hanging around 80 degrees. We have ordered a new boiler to replace the old one so that we do not have this issue happen again. Please bear with us and thank you for your patience.

We had a great time hosting the McPherson Chamber of Commerce’s Coffee Connection this morning. It was nice to share all of the great things happening at the Y with our community leaders.
