Y Family Memberships: The Y offers three types of family memberships; two adults, two adults and all children ages 20 and under (or through age 25 if full time college student), and one adult and children ages 20 and under. A family membership provides activities for each family member seven days a week. There are activities that parents and their children can do together such as swimming, Family Fun Night, and playing in the game room. The Y also provides options where parents can do their activities while their children do their own Y class or activity. For example, parents can take a group exercise class or lift weights while their kids take a swim or gymnastics class or play in the game room. This provides one-trip, easy scheduling options to help each family member get valuable exercise, relax and have fun. Financial aid can cover 20-70% of all dues and class fees.
