A youth may stay on a Family Membership as a dependent through the end of their 18th year. A youth is considered a dependent if they are:

  • A biological, adopted, or foster child
  • A sibling, niece/nephew, or grandchild that resides at the same residence as you for more than half the year

Once youth turn 19, they will need to transition into either a Teen Membership or be added to the Family Membership as another adult.

We encourage all members of the community to come and use our spaces! Our drop-in fees are as follows: 

  • Under 5 Years Old: Free (with paying adult 18-years-old or older)
  • Youth (ages 6-12): $5
  • Teen (ages 13-19): $10
  • Adult (ages 20-64): $20
  • Senior (ages 65+): $15
  • Family: $40

Please bring a hard copy of ID (ex. Driver’s License) with you.

For international visitors (including Canadians), please bring American currency to pay for your drop-in fee.

As a perk of membership, each active membership unit receives 3 guest passes per year that can be used to bring in non-YMCA friends and family members ages 18+.
