We are happy to announce that we will be reopening our full time Child Care Center on Tuesday, May 19th which includes providing full day programs for our school aged children. We are taking all of the necessary steps to ensure the safety of our families and staff which means things may look and feel a little different when you come back to the YMCA. However, our priority continues to be the health of our staff, child care families, members and the broader community.
To say that these are unprecedented times is an understatement. One month ago we temporarily closed our doors in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a socially responsible community organization, we felt it was important to help with our Community’s efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19. As I reach out today, our #1 priority is for you to be well. Your health and well-being is the most important thing to us, whether we are together in the same building or we are in our own homes. It is about Community.
Given the unprecedented circumstances related to the global spread of COVID-19, we have decided to postpone The Fredericton YMCA Inc. AGM originally scheduled for April 27th. A new date for the AGM will be set once the New Brunswick Department of Health provides guidance that such gatherings can be done safely.
Due to facility closures, the YMCA of Fredericton Spring Session and Summer Camp registration is on hold. We appreciate the support of our YMCA family and the community at large as we take measures to reduce the spread of this virus. #Community
