WHAT WE NEED
GENERAL COMMENTS
The YMCA is now fully up and running at all locations - City (Accommodation, Health and Fitness, Youth Services, Climbing Wall, Alternative Education), Bishopdale (Health and Fitness; childcare), 888 Colombo Street (Youth Training) and Wainui Park Camp (Akaroa Harbour) We are one of the few gyms open and are seeing a steady stream of people keen to get back to an exercise routine. All buildings are structurally sound; the City Y Accommodation has been refurbished due to water damage and is now sporting a fresh, new look. The YMCA is open to all.
