POOL IS REOPENING!

We're excited to announce that we've reached a significant milestone - a signed agreement approving a $1 million grant from the County Board of Supervisors for aquatic programming. This substantial funding will pave the way for reopening our pool, a crucial community resource, under the management of our Y. The pool is on track to reopen in the fall of 2024, offering grant provided swimming lessons monthly for the first year, a testament to our commitment to providing essential life skills to individuals of all ages.

WE'RE HIRING NOW!

You belong at the Y! Make an impact that goes beyond your work day. Be the reason someone discovers their potential, courage and joy while building and creating memories that will last a lifetime!
