The Richmond District YMCA announced today that it will be expanding its space to include the Argonne Clubhouse, located on 18th Avenue between Geary and Anza. That’s just one block south of the existing YMCA building.
All programming at this new site will be offered through a new drop-in punch card system designed to be accessible to anyone interested in getting a taste of what the Y has to offer them or their family. Programming at Argonne will focus on the Y’s three areas of focus: Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility.
They plan to offer the following types of classes and programs in the new space:
Youth Development: LEAP Afterschool Program, Movie Nights, Art Programs, Movement Classes, Toddler Exploration, Holiday Camps, Summer Camp
Healthy Living: Strength Training Classes, Cardio Classes, Boot Camp, Zumba, Yoga
Social Responsibility: Community Meetings, Holiday Events, Healthy Kids Day
The Clubhouse was renovated in 2006, but has not been open to the community since 2010 due to budget cuts. The YMCA is partnering with SF Rec & Park on the project.
The YMCA will host an open house at their new annex on October 1st from 2pm until 4pm. Neighbors are invited to come by and sample classes, purchase discount activity cards, give feedback on the types of programming that will be offered, and meet the staff.
