Gyms and fitness centers stand to be impacted the most from Governor Evers’ order requiring masks to be worn indoors at public facilities. For the Door County YMCA, it means that many of the plans to return to a full slate of classes will have to be pushed back from September 1st to later in the year in favor of outdoor instruction instead. Executive Director Tom Beerntsen says strenuous cardio exercise also becomes impossible.

Beerntsen says locker rooms and the pool are still accessible, so there will be more functionality than when the Y first reopened in June. He urges members and the community to take advantage of Peterson Park.
