Sat Nov 7 + Sun Nov 8: Gingerbread Swim Meet
On Saturday, November 7 + Sunday, November 8, the Ridgewood Y will be hosting the Gingerbread Swim Meet, a large youth swim team competition. Here are a few things to be aware of around the facility over the weekend:
• Parking lots and the surrounding street parking spaces will be very full, especially on Sunday. Please allow ample time to find a spot. Parking on a nearby side street or closer to downtown are alternative options.
• LAP SWIM AND FAMILY SWIM ARE CANCELED FOR THE WEEKEND.
• Swim lessons are unaffected by the meet.
• The gymnasium will be unavailable for open gym time beginning on Saturday at noon and will remain closed through Sunday. It is used as a staging space for athletes during the meet.
• Youth soccer is unaffected by the meet and will take place outside on the turf field, weather permitting.
• There will be extra foot traffic throughout the facility as athletes and spectators move between spaces. The safety of our members and visiting athletes is a top priority, so there will be signage and volunteers helping to keep things moving and to assure safety for all.
Thank you for your cooperation! We’re looking forward to the event. Good luck to all the swimmers competing!
