The Westport Y:  It’s not just for winter storm victims.

That isn’t the tag line.  But it could be.

In March 2010 — when some Westporters lost power for a week — the Y opened its doors to anyone for showers, stress-relieving workouts, even cell phone charging.

Now — 16 months and 6000 degrees later — comes news that Y is a “local cooling center.” As the Village People know, it’s fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A.

You can stay until closing at 9:30 p.m., just hanging out in one of the public areas — including the very comfy Bedford Room.

When the pool’s open, you can even swim — free of charge.

How cool is that?
