When you become a YMCA member, you're setting yourself on a life-long journey of healthy spirit, mind, and body. You're becoming part of an association that does everything from childcare to health and fitness to your development to the youth and adult sports, and much, much more. As a YMCA member, you have many benefits but you have some responsibilities, too. You will be asked to get involved and be a champion for the YMCA values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. You may be asked to volunteer or contribute to the Y's annual support campaign that underwrites membership assistance for those who cannot afford the full fees. The YMCA involves members in offering their time, talent, and treasure for the greater good.
Family workout hours on Saturdays and Sundays from 11am-1pm. 9-12 year olds, under supervision of a parent, may use the HEC. The parents must check in with the HEC staff person on duty at the time of entry. All must be members or bu y a family day pass and be able to show their membership card to the YMCA staff.
