ABOUT THE PROJECT:
In July, the Greater Wichita YMCA and Hutchinson Regional Medical Center announced a partnership that will bring a new state-of-the-art Hutchinson YMCA facility to Reno County. The collaboration advances both the Hutchinson Y’s and HRHS’ shared commitment to strengthening the health and well-being of individuals and families in the surrounding area.
The future facility will include a first-class destination aquatics center, indoor track, gymnasium, expanded gymnastics center, fitness center with studios, community room, additional places for families to connect and programs that provide safe spaces for youth. This initial phase allows for future development to continue to transform the 9.9 acres of land into a health and wellness destination.
