Child Watch & Tumble Room Updates
In preparation for the grand opening of our Early Learning Center on September 3rd, we’re making a few exciting changes to better serve our youngest members. Starting August 11th, the Tumble Room will be closed through August 23rd and will reopen in its new, refreshed home on the 2nd floor on September 2nd. During this time, Child Watch will temporarily move into the Toddler Zone on the 2nd floor. Thank you for your patience and support as we make room for more learning, laughter, and growth at the Y!
