On Friday, October 20, at 8 a.m. the Summit YMCA fully reopens after months of hard work and dedication. Our renovated YMCA reflects our belief that, when individuals come together as a community, they can achieve incredible things. The new Summit YMCA is a place where we can unite, support one another, and grow together. In this space, you belong.
What’s New?
• State-of-the-Art Fitness Center: Featuring brand new exercise equipment, our fitness center now spans two, open-concept floors. Whether you’re creating a custom workout in our modern space or are exercising with one of our personal trainers on our newly installed turf, the Summit YMCA is fully equipped to help you maximize your fitness routine.
• Spacious Exercise Studios: Prefer working out with a group of friends under the guidance of an enthusiastic instructor who will pump you up? You can enjoy four beautifully redesigned exercise studios, which feature gleaming floors, sparkling mirrors and all of the indoor cycling, barre, and body pump your heart desires.
• High-Tech Teen Center: The Summit YMCA is a home-away-from-home for teens. Our new, 1,300-square-foot Teen Center comes complete with everything middle schoolers and high schoolers need to bond, get mentoring, and practice their esports and coding skills. It’s a safe—and free—space for all teens in our area.
• Redesigned Kid Zone: Parents of young children can use the Summit YMCA with the help of our free child watch space—Kid Zone. This room is conveniently located on the first floor of the Summit YMCA, so you can drop your children off easily and get to your favorite class. Best of all, it’s equipped with the staff, toys, and crafts that will keep your children engaged the entire time you’re enjoying the Summit YMCA.
• Community Lounges: At the Y, we’re all about togetherness, and our new lounges facilitate that. Come to our main lounge or our new parlor, where you can grab a cup of coffee with neighbors, your favorite YMCA instructor, or one of the many other friends you’re bound to meet when you join the Y.

SUMMIT AREA YMCA
BERKELEY HEIGHTS YMCA | SUMMIT YMCA | THE LEARNING CIRCLE YMCA
In 1886, we were founded as the Young Men’s Christian Association, but today, we are The Y. An association that values, and is made stronger by, its diverse people. We stand for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility — For a better us. We are committed to creating equal opportunity for all regardless of gender, age, disability, income, ethnicity, sexual orientation or religious affiliation. We strive to create a welcoming and inclusive culture in which our four core values — responsibility, honesty, caring and respect — are integral to everyday operations.
Each year, as one of the area’s leading 501(c)3 charitable organizations, the Summit Area YMCA serves more than 15,000 individuals with our free and fee-based programs and services in an area spanning the New Jersey communities of Berkeley Heights, Gillette, Millburn, New Providence, Short Hills, Springfield, Stirling and Summit. Our history is rooted in working side-by-side with our neighbors to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Through the generosity of our members, donors, and partners, we are able to offer financial assistance for our programs and services to those in need.
