The YMCA of San Benito County on Wednesday was wrapping up a move from its downtown location on Fifth Street to its new home at the former Fortino’s Total Home store at 351 Tres Pinos Road.
YMCA President Scott Fuller had expected the organization to be open for business by Thursday.
It is intended to provide a temporary home in anticipation of the organization’s plans to use more than 30,000 square feet for an indoor facility along with a 10,000-square-foot outdoor pool at the former site of Leatherback Industries.
The city’s RDA owns the Leatherback property and has been working with the YMCA on plans to partner with a builder in developing at the location.
Fuller said the old Fortino’s building will accommodate a lot more programs and he noted how the YMCA expects to get some exercise machines in mid-July.
