Bedford Center YMCA at Generations Park 

Bedford’s beloved Boy’s Ranch has been replaced by the new Bedford Center YMCA at Generations Park. The new multigenerational indoor and outdoor YMCA will serve the community of Bedford, while taking programmatic offerings to the next level.

The indoor multifunctional facility features one large body of water containing three lap lanes, a current channel and a children’s play area with an interactive water play feature. Additional indoor amenities include a warm-water spa, two waterslides, a gymnasium, fitness rooms and a second-floor fitness mezzanine, party rooms, and a large community gathering room with seating for 250 people. The outdoor waterpark includes a large lazy river with two waterslides, a zero-entry leisure pool, two splashpads, ample deck seating, concessions and a restroom facility. Cabanas, available for rent, will have a significant impact on revenue streams and will incentivize guests to stay longer.

The project embodies the best example of protecting the past and community history while visioning for the future. A unique sculpture located between the center and the lake showcases the extensive history of the park and will serve as a lasting tribute for the community.
