Revitalized Delanson Fitness Hub Opens: A Community Boost with 4EverBods at Former YMCA Site

Schenectady County recently opened the 4EverBods Fitness facility, located in the former Duanesburg YMCA in Delanson. The building, closed since 2020 due to the pandemic and permanently shut down in 2022, was purchased by the county from the Capital District YMCA at the end of 2023. It was then sold to Chris and Lauren Davis, who have experience in managing fitness centers.

The opening ceremony involved Schenectady County legislators, the Schenectady Metroplex Development Authority, and the Davis family. This event showcased the collaboration between public and private sectors to rejuvenate an important community asset. Managed by the Davises, the facility aims to become a central spot for community health and wellness.

The partnership includes a Community Benefits Provision, ensuring the facility will support the public in various ways over the next ten years. It will provide space for school activities, offer free memberships to disadvantaged youth, and host essential services like lifeguard training and senior meals, emphasizing its role as a multifunctional community resource.

The 4EverBods Fitness facility covers 26,276 square feet and features a 25-yard lap pool, a large gymnasium, and a wellness center. These amenities are designed to accommodate a broad range of activities, aiming to attract different community groups, including school children and seniors, to promote community engagement and physical health.
