Monthly Rates

Monthly rates are based upon participation in automatic billing (EFT Bank Draft). To establish a monthly membership we need authorization to bill your checking / savings account or credit card.

There is a $10 per month additional fee for a one-month membership when not signing up for automatic payments. We do not accept cash payments. You can make payments with a credit/debit card or a check.

The joining fee is a one-time fee unless a membership lapses. Joining fee will be applied to any membership that has been inactive for more than 60 days.

Teen Wellness Orientation

Attending a Teen Wellness Orientation is required for members age 13 – 17 to use the Wellness facility (Gymnasium and Second Floor) without adult parent or caregiver supervision. Wellness orientation helps teens learn about behavior expectations at the Y and welcome them into our community. 

Day + Time: Sessions are offered Thursdays and Fridays from 4:00 – 5:00pm. Sign up through the link below, or through our Member Engagement staff.

* This requirement applies to all new teen members, and those without a signed Wellness Orientation Acknowledgment Form (WOAF) prior to Aug. 31. Teens must attend orientation within 30 days of first check-in to have future access to the Wellness floor and Gymnasium. 

MEMBERSHIP CARDS

The Y is a membership organization. Therefore, personal information is collected and a photo is taken of each member. This information is maintained in our data base.
