COVID Policy, March 2022

March 2, 2022

Our top priority is the health and safety of our participants and staff. Following the guidance and the latest Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations and due to decreasing COVID-19 rates in the Twin Cities and the lifting mask mandates in both St. Paul and Minneapolis, we are taking the following steps to best serve our diverse audiences, effective immediately.

  • Fitness members will no longer be required to wear a mask while in the Health & Fitness Center.
  • We strongly recommend face masks be worn by all fitness members while in the Health & Fitness Center, regardless of vaccination status.

Properly worn face masks will still be required for:

  • YWCA St. Paul employees regardless of vaccination status.
  • Other visitors to our facilities regardless of vaccination status.

We will continue to monitor and follow the MDH, CDC and local guidance and implement protocols to ensure that we create a safe and healthy environment for all who enter our doors.

Thank you for your cooperation.

New Extended Hours Starting April 13!

Beginning Monday, April 13, the Health & Fitness Center will return to our 10:00 PM closing time Monday through Friday.
