Temporary Pool Closure & Exciting Partnership

As part of our ongoing construction, the YMCA pools will be closed starting November 2 through May 2025. During this time, we’ve partnered with Jackson Public Schools to provide members with access to their pools for swim team practices, lap swim, swim lessons, and aqua fitness classes.

We are committed to ensuring you can continue your aquatic activities during this transition. A special thanks to Mike and Shelia Levy for their generous support in making this partnership possible.

Water Safety for Kids

Ensuring children’s safety around water is a priority at the Jackson YMCA. We offer several programs to equip kids with essential skills and build water confidence.

Thanks to the Alvin L. Glick Foundation, kids learn lifesaving skills like how to stay safe in open water, assist a friend, wear a lifejacket, and more.

• Jackson Swims

Free water safety program for local 2nd graders starting Fall 2025. Volunteers are welcome to support this life-saving initiative!

Youth Swim Lessons

Our swim lessons foster strong swimming skills and confidence in kids of all ages. Beyond fitness, they build resilience, courage, and a sense of achievement.

What to Bring:

• Swimmers should come in their suits, bringing goggles, towels, and water bottles.

• A soap shower is required before entering the pool.

• Locker rooms are available for use.
