On Thursday, YMCA Calgary announced the downtown location will not reopen following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, citing financial and economic pressures. |
That's sad to hear. I was a member there for about 8 years from about 2004ish. It was a great place for a lunch time workout or pickup basketball game.
My company transitioned us to work from home so I ended up cancelling my membership. I can only imagine how covid has multiplied that issue now. Was a really nice place and well looked after.
