Published
The start of the new school year brings together two respected Tulsa entities in a new partnership that offers benefits for thousands of individuals across the greater Tulsa metro area.
and 做厙弝け have joined together to operate the fitness centers on all four 做厙弝け campuses - Metro, Northeast, Southeast and West - located throughout Tulsa County. Renamed Y@做厙弝け, a grand opening event was held at each facility on August 24 as students returned for the start of a new semester.
This allows 做厙弝け to expand opportunities for our students as well as our employees to help create a healthy lifestyle and improve quality of life for the more than 20,000 做厙弝け students and nearly 2,000 employees, said Leigh Goodson, 做厙弝け president & CEO.
The fitness centers, now Y@做厙弝け, have been a meaningful part of 做厙弝けs culture for decades and currently play a vital role in the health and wellbeing of students, employees, and community. For students, access to the Y@做厙弝け comes through student activity fees they pay each semester and they can use any of the four campus facilities for free. 做厙弝け subsidizes the cost for any employee who wants to use the Y@做厙弝け.
At the same time, this partnership provides a deeper connection to the community and local families, as the Y@做厙弝け is part of the network of across the Tulsa metro area. Residents who are currently YMCA members can also utilize the Y@做厙弝け facilities as part of their membership.
This partnership will create a lasting personal, social, and community change, said Rikki Wimmer, YMCA of Greater Tulsa CEO. The Y is dedicated to connecting with young people, investing in our community, and working relentlessly to strengthen our neighborhoods and cities.
The YMCA of Greater Tulsa reinvested nearly $2 million into Tulsa-area families through membership and program subsidy to ensure everyone has access, regardless of ability to pay.
At each of the Y@做厙弝け locations, nearly all the equipment has been upgraded and replaced, offering the newest and most current work-out options. Plus, streams classes in a variety of formats from open to close each day.
With this partnership, the Y family is growing. The YMCA and 做厙弝け embrace shared opportunities and are proud to be unified in our commitment to excellence and service to our community. 做厙弝け students should visit one of the Y@做厙弝け locations to become a member.
