Exciting things are happening at the Victory Family YMCA soon. Starting June 2, our center will be renovated for six months. Many changes will be made to accommodate the work that needs to be done in the center. But no worries—we will be open and operating our regular hours, just with a few changes.
The Victory Family YMCA renovation focuses on expanding the facility's usable footprint through interior renovations and expanding the exterior building frontage. In doing so, the design offers increased wellness areas and group exercise studios to provide more space and capacity to help our community grow healthier.
