BECOME YOUR BEST SELF
Following the guidelines set in place by the state of Nebraska and the CDC, we plan on opening in phases as we reinstate and train our team. We will continue a rigorous cleaning schedule every day and are adding additional staff and sanitation stations as needed.
Four work out areas will be available to members. These areas include the Hazel Keene Wellness Center, the new Cross-Training Room, and the Large Gym which has been divided into two areas by the large curtain. Access to each work out area will be limited to 50% of overall capacity. This means that members should not have to wait to work out. Members must be over the age of 14 to utilize the work out areas. Children ages 10-13 may use the Wellness Center if they are accompanied by a parent, or alone if they have completed our weight training program. Work out times will be restricted to 1.5 hours total per day.

Monday-Friday: 5am-8pm
Saturday: 7am-3pm
Sunday: 12:30pm-4pm

FREMONT FAMILY YMCA YOUTUBE CHANNEL - The YMCA is posting workouts that you can do at home led by the familiar faces of the fitness instructors of the Fremont Family YMCA.
Being healthy means more than simply being physically active. It’s about maintaining a balanced spirit, mind, and body. The Y is a place where you can work toward that balance by challenging yourself to learn a new skill or hobby, fostering connections with friends through our lifelong learning programs, or bringing your loved ones closer together through our many family-centered activities. At the Y, it’s not about the activity you choose as much as it is about the benefits of living healthier on the inside as well as the outside.
