Important Update Regarding Childs Park YMCA
July 22, 2026
Earlier today, two individuals unaffiliated with our Y were involved in an isolated shooting incident at the Childs Park YMCA. We are very grateful that our staff and participants were not injured. Childs Park YMCA will be closed for the remainder of the week and until further notice.
The safety and wellbeing of everyone who enters our doors and programs is a top priority. We will continue to cooperate with the St. Petersburg Police Department as they proceed with their investigation. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by this incident.
