The Christian County YMCA like a lot of businesses and organizations has been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Executive Director Chris Weittenhiller says that things have been extremely tough. 

Weittenhiller says that they lost approximately $340,000 in revenue in part because they felt it wasn’t right to charge members while they were closed. 

Since they reopened Weittenhiller says that membership numbers are way down and that they haven’t been able to offer the same type of programming that they usually are able to offer.

Despite everything Weittenhiller says that they’ve been able to stay cashflow positive, but moving forward they’re anticipating a $20,000 loss each and every month.
