New Hours at HCS in effect Nov 3, 2025

Dear YMCA members – after weeks of deliberation, the decision has been made to reduce the hours at our Health Club & Spa location (1977 S. Lisbon Rd, Lewiston, ME) starting Monday November 3, 2025.

We have worked with the YMCA operations team and have met a few different times with the HCS staff to try to provide as many open hours as possible, have as much access to the pool area as possible, and still offer the group exercise classes – all while also being budgetarily diligent.

New hours for Y Health Club & Spa starting Monday November 3, 2025:

Front Desk
Mon – Fri: 4:15am – 7:00pm

Pool (closed 3-4pm daily)
Mon, Wed, Fri: 5:00am – 7:00pm
Tues, Thurs: 7:00am – 7:00pm

Saturday – Sunday: Location Closed

We know that your routine is important, and we know the new hours might require a shift in terms of when you can frequent HCS. But we believe, and our research has shown, that this will be an important step in making HCS a more sustainable facility while also ensuring that it continues to be a resource for you and other community members.

See below for answers to some frequently asked questions, along with a feedback form should you wish to submit additional questions/comments to our team. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time of adjustment.
