By Daniel Kane ITEM STAFF As local businesses struggle to adjust to the impact of COVID-19 guidelines and closures this week, gyms around the North Shore have been forced to either close their doors entirely or drastical- ly change their day-to-day operations. Initially, the YMCA of Metro North had planned to close only its tness centers while continuing to provide daily child care programs. But as of a statement released Wednesday by President and CEO Kathleen Walsh, all Metro North YMCAs -- including Lynn, Saugus and Torigian (Peabody) -- will be closing all facilities and programs until April 6. “This is an extraordi- narily challenging time; unlike anything we have experienced,” the state- ment said. “Our Y commu- nity is strong and connect- ed. We will get through this together. And when we emerge from this chal- lenging moment, we look forward to welcoming you and your families back through our doors.” The YMCA will release information on how to stay healthy, including videos of workouts and tips on- line.
