CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — After almost a week of being closed, the local YMCA of the Coastal Bend is inviting the public back inside in its first phase of a total reopening of the facility.
The YMCA closed suddenly last Wednesday for what board members called "a little TLC." That consisted of steam-cleaning carpets, painting walls and wiping down equipment.
3NEWS visited the location off of South Upper Broadway as staff got the last bit of cleaning done before they re-open their doors Thursday.
"We wanted to make sure it was good to go, wanted to make sure that everything was on par for what the YUSA said that we needed to do, and just to make sure that not only for the YUSA, but also for our members," Interim CEO Estevan Guerra said.
Some programs and facilities will still be unavailable, like the pool. However, the gym will be open 24/7, and the daycare center will be open during normal business hours.
