Community Week
Generosity sparks change, and Y members like you lead the way. This Community Week, we're celebrating the founding of the YMCA of Greater New York and the people who make our mission possible. Please stop by the branch and celebrate with us throughout the week. 
 
All Week – Bring-A-Friend to Class 
Members can bring a guest to any group fitness class all week long-because workouts are better together. Just bring your favorite friend (or two) and stop by the front desk to sign them up.
