We’d like to give everyone an update regarding the status of our YMCA since we shuttered our health, fitness and aquatics services. As you are aware, we decided to shutter our fitness programming and facilities on January 6th in reaction to the province moving to the Orange Level. Since then, the Moncton area moved to the Red Level which was much more restrictive. As announced February 8th, the Moncton area will move back to the Orange Level. This is encouraging news for our community.

MONCTON - The YMCA Community Action Network (YCAN) has not let the pandemic slow down youth service projects. YCAN is bringing a new project to the community: named The Coronicles as a way for youth to share their experiences from the Coronavirus pandemic.

(Moncton, January 5, 2021) – The YMCA of Greater Moncton will close both of their fitness facilities as of end of business today based on the decision of the province of New Brunswick to revert the entire province to the Orange Alert Level due to the recent increase of positive COVID-19 cases. We will remain closed until we return to the Yellow Alert Level.

The Government of New Brunswick announced yesterday that Zone 1 will move back to the Yellow Phase of recovery effective 12:00 am December 7, 2020. We’re so relieved to hear this and happy to share what this change means for our Y and our members.

The YMCA Community Action Network (YCAN) is an innovative national program that engages leaders ages 15 to 30 across Canada to address a community need through service projects. The program, part of the Canada Service Corps initiative, supports youth with opportunities to identify and execute a local service project that is meaningful to them.
