The health and safety of our members and staff is always our top priority.
Our Minnesota mask policy has been updated. Per Governor’s orders, masks are required for everyone in the facility for all activities. Children from infant to 5 years old do not need to wear a mask. Those with medical conditions that are unable to wear a mask must wear a full face shield.
At our Hudson Y where pools and showers are open, you do not need to wear a mask when swimming or showering, when on a piece of cardio equipment, running on the track or in mask-optional cardio-based group exercise classes. Masks are required on the pool deck at all times.
Please help us keep you, our team and our members safe and healthy by wearing your mask.
Staying Safe Together
The information below is subject to change at any time. To ensure members’ health and safety, as well as the enjoyment of our facilities, we are implementing the following safety protocols to reduce health risks to our members, program participants, and staff.
What the Y is Doing
- Personal Protective Equipment for All Staff: All staff will be required to wear masks.
- Self-Scan: Members will be asked to self-scan to allow for limited contact entry.
- Designed for Social Distance by Physical Distance: All open areas inside the Y have been evaluated and redesigned where necessary to help to help social distancing by physical distancing between members. Signage will be placed prominently throughout the facility to drive awareness of this requirement.
- Cleaning: In addition to sanitizing equipment by staff every two hours and the request of our members to wipe down equipment after use, the facility and equipment will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected each day by using products and processes in accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Environmental Protection Agency.
How We're Asking Members to Help Maintain Safety
Y staff will be stationed throughout the facility to assist with cleaning disinfecting equipment and to answer questions regarding new guidelines. The YMCA appreciates members’ adherence to the following safety precautions during their visits:
- Stay Home If You’re Sick: Members should stay home if they don’t feel well. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state public health officials encourage seniors and members of vulnerable populations, including those with underlying health conditions, to stay at home.
- Bring a Mask, a Towel, and a Water Bottle: Masks are required for all members and team members at all times except when in the pool or when showering. Members will be asked to bring their own water bottle and a workout towel (towel services will not be provided).
- Keep Your Distance: Please exercise on designated equipment only and respect all signage regarding social distancing. Strive to maintain at least 12 feet between you and others whenever possible.
- Expect Reduced Capacity: We may have limited capacity due to government and health department guidelines. To ensure proper social distancing by physical distancing, our wellness areas will have a limited capacity.
- Remember to Wipe Down Equipment: Please help us reduce the risk of exposure by wiping down all equipment, weights, etc. with the provided cleaning materials.
