How to I become a member?
First, come visit us. We'd love to give you a tour and a day pass. Next, try us out and then select the membership level right for you and your family. Go here to learn more about our membership levels and benefits.

 

Why should I become a member? 
Because in addition to free classes and deep discounts on other Y programs and services, members enjoy regular access to all of our state-of-the-art facilities. And if your employer has a corporate partnership with the Y or your insurance offers health club reimbursement, membership costs can be nearly free. So come in, take a tour, and talk to a member services team member about your options!

 

What classes and programs do you offer?
We have activities for all ages and stages, from youth swimming lessons to adult pickup basketball. Check out our current program guide.


Do you have day care for my child while I work out?
Yes! We have two rooms specifically set aside for our smallest community members: The Rainbow Room and Kid’s Gym.  Go here for more information, hours and rates.  


Do you have open swim times? 
Yes. Go here to see our schedule.

 

What is the difference between the two pools?
We have a 25-yard, 6-lane pool that is kept at 84 degrees. The smaller pool is 20 yards in length and kept at 92 degrees – perfect for children and those with injuries or other special needs.


What is the difference between fitness coaching and personal training?
Fitness coaching is complimentary and helps new members get acquainted with the facility. Personal training is fee-based and perfect for those who are ready to take their fitness to the next level with an educated, nationally certified trainer!  


I am a veteran; do I get a free membership?
We are proud to offer complimentary, six-month memberships to our military men and women and families who meet certain criteria. Contact us for more details.


What is towel/locker service?
Daily, non-overnight use of a locker is complimentary and a daily towel is just 50 cents. Y members can enjoy unlimited towel service for just $5/month and an assigned locker for $5 per month. Locks are strongly encouraged and can be purchased at the front desk for $5.


Can I prepay for my membership or is auto-draw required?
Membership can be automatically deducted from a checking, savings or bank account each month. This method is preferred, as it helps keep overhead costs low and operations running efficiently. However, members may also choose to pay either six or 12 months in advance. 


I love the Y! How do I get a job there?
We’re always looking for energetic people who share our values! If you see a fit with one of our current job openings, fill out an application.
