In February, the City of Minnetonka purchased The Marsh, located at 15000 Minnetonka Blvd., from the YMCA of the North. The health and wellness facility sits on approximately seven acres, adjacent to the Minnetonka Civic Center and Jidana Park.

The city plans to partially open the facility May 1. Visitors may choose from a variety of membership options or daily guest fees. Membership will be open to Minnetonka residents and nonresidents. Learn more and subscribe to facility information at minnetonkamn.gov/themarsh.

Next Steps

Minnetonka continues to explore possible future uses for the facility and property as part of a Community Facility Study later this year. The study will include opportunities for community engagement as the city evaluates the future of The Marsh and its other city recreation facilities.

    Background
    The Marsh opened in 1985 when Ruth Stricker worked to pair fitness with mental and spiritual health. For four decades, it has built a reputation for its wellness programs, meeting spaces and natural setting. Stricker’s family donated the center to the Y following her passing in 2020. The Y announced plans to sell the property this past fall.
