I became a member of the Ashland YMCA in June 2020 mostly so my teenage boy could use the basketball court. When we went in to play I was approached aggressively by one of the employees that we could not play basketball together even though we live in the same household.

I felt racially profiled and targeted because my son is African American. They did not inform me of this rule and I put a pause on my membership because of all of the limitations and feeling that we were not welcomed there.

We had great experiences with the Athletic Director Tony with flag football in the past as he was very supportive and helped me with coaching the team, but when you live somewhere that racially profiles your son I can not support a business like that. I am boycotting the Ashland YMCA and I would like a refund on my membership fees.
