Guest Policies

Guest Policy:
The Y is a member organization and seeks to encourage membership through guest privileges. Complimentary guest passes must be approved through the CEO. In order to avoid overcrowding during peak hours or for our most popular classes, the Y reserves the right to limit access to the facility and/or a class by guests.

Away Member: Members of other Y’s involved in the AWAY program and temporarily visiting from out of town may use the Y for unlimited visits. Members must show photo ID, proof of Y membership, and sign a Y release form.

Short Term Membership: As an opportunity to provide service to out of town guests and college students who are in town for Christmas and Summer Break and who would like to enjoy the Y for their limited stay in our community, we have short term memberships available. Participants must show a photo ID and sign a release form.
