LOCK HAVEN BRANCH YMCA

POOL RESTORATION CAMPAIGN:

A pool is so much more than just a place to swim. A community pool, like the YMCA’s, is integral to community health, safety, quality and inclusion. Swimming and aquatics classes enable all individuals, including those with limited mobility, the ability to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle. 

*** Thank you to the following Tier 1 donors: Clinton County, Clinton County Community Foundation, City of Lock Haven, Sons & Daughters of Italy, Inc., Wayne Township Landfill, Poorman & Group, and to all of our additional sponsors.

The pool restoration project is a $880,000 dollar repair and refurbishment venture aiming to restore the pool facility to working order with improved safety, accessibility and user satisfaction.

COMPLETE! TIER 1 – THE ESSENTIAL PHASE $280,000  We will replace the 30+-year-old HVAC unit,  which is broken beyond repair, with an  eco-sensitive Pool Pak system of next-   generation technology that will provide consistent  and economic performance for the next decades.   Without this, we cannot reopen the pool.

TIER 2– THE PRIVACY PHASE $260,000  We will reconfigure the entire women’s locker area,  move the egress, build individual shower stalls with  private changing areas, and add an additional stall  in the men’s locker room. Lastly, we will continue any  repairs, tiling, and painting and install water-saving  fixtures and energy-efficient lighting.

TIER 3– THE CONVENIENCE PHASE $340,000  We will bring natural light to the pool area through  the installation of exterior transom windows and   add an electronic lift to provide easy pool-access for  all mobility-impaired swimmers or physical therapy   patients. In addition, we will install a modern,  energy-efficient coed sauna in the wet area and  convert the former sauna space into a physical  therapy center.

We need your help to bring the Lock Haven Branch YMCA pool back to our community!
