CONSTRUCTION UPDATE: The Somerset Hills YMCA is undergoing a major expansion of our facility.  Our parking lot expansion is now complete and adequate parking should be available on-site.  Our main building entrance is temporarily closed due to the construction.  Follow the signs to the temporary entrance on the left end of the building near the gym.  If you desire to drop off your swimmer prior to parking, please proceed to the far end of the building at the temporary entrance.  Additional parking, if needed, will be available in a satellite lot at 150/170 Mt. Airy Rd, immediately before the Y on the right.  From the parking lot, follow the marked path, walk by the Y Annex House (blue Cape Code) and across the foot bridge to the Y.  Directional signs will be posted to facilitate parking.  AS WE ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION, PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS AND STAY CLEAR OF ANY CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT.  ALSO, KINDLY REMAIN AWAY FROM THE CONSTRUCTION SITE AS THE AREA WILL NOT BE SAFELY SECURED FOR VISITORS.
