Gig Harbor’s Y, which was renamed in March the Tom Taylor Family YMCA, will be adding 10,500 square feet to its five-year facility. The expansion project is focused on children and teen programs but will also include multipurpose rooms available to all ages.
The two-story expansion will house a slightly larger teen center, a half-court youth gym, an adventure zone for families and two multipurpose rooms. The current nursery and child watch areas will then be expanded through a remodel to incorporate the space now used by the teen center.
Of the Y’s 19,000 members, 5,200 are youth. The expanded space will allow for additional programming including classes, leadership programs and various activities, according to Andrea Millikan, Tom Taylor Family YMCA executive director. read more »
