THE
HAYES-TAYLOR YMCA, WHICH OPENED ON JANUARY 5TH, IS THE NEWEST
ADDITION TO GREENSBORO. THE 55,000
SQUARE FOOT BUILDING REPLACES THE ORIGINAL HAYES-TAYLOR FACILITY, WHICH USED
TO BE LOCATED NEAR THE NORTH CAROLINA A&T CAMPUS. THE NEW LOCATION HAS OFFERED MANY MORE
OPPORTUNITIES, SAYS LARRY BURNETT, THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE HAYES-TAYLOR
YMCA.
“Clearly
the biggest benefit is where we are located there were 3 areas where we were
identified at our old property that customers identified needed. First one is that they needed more
parking. We had very limited parking
spaces at the old facility so…The second thing we needed was more green space
for the children to go outside and play.
Where with this property we have a lot more green space. In addition to that we have a wide range of
classes be the aerobics, tai chi, yoga, different classes that you can come
to at this facility and we couldn’t offer wide variety of classes at the old
facility but we can do that here and that has made all the difference in the
world.”
THIS
BRAND NEW FACILITY HAS MANY FEATURES AVAILABLE TO THE MEMBERS.
SOME
OF THESE FEATURES INCLUDE A POOL, BASKET COURTS, A FITNESS CENTER THAT
CONTAINS A LARGE RANGE OF WORKOUT EQUIPEMENT, AND TRACK BOARDING THE WHOLE
AREA.
ALL
OF THE FEATURES OFFERED AT THIS NEW FACILITY HAVE BEEN ADDED TO BENEFIT THE
MEMBERS.
