When the pandemic lock down was lifted I notice a change at the Hamilton YMCA fitness locations. I was there when it reopened and gradually members returned yet still to this day not to full capacity. On the other hand this opened a topic for discussion we members could share either in the locker room or at the fitness centre regarding COVID-19 and the return to the YMCA, especially with the senior Y members. I’ve been a Y member for years and I recall before the pandemic hit the world most members would go about their workouts with not much social interaction. Today that’s all changed, members will greet others with a nod, smile or a hello. I believe the pandemic made us appreciate others in a positive manner. Enjoy your workouts!
