Open to Members Beginning August 17
We recently announced our re-opening to members this August. If you're interested in learning more, please read our plan to welcome members back to the Y.
This plan includes these initial restrictions:
-
Our University Family and Fauntleroy locations will remain closed to members until further notice.
-
Access for children under 14 will be restricted at our facilities until further notice.
All active members, including local University and Fauntleroy members, can access any of our locations. These local memberships have been temporarily upgraded at no additional cost because your locations have a delayed opening.
In order to open YMCA of Greater Seattle facilities during Phase 3 of the Safe Start plan, we must comply with capacity and physical distance guidelines. Unfortunately, due to the square footage, facility configuration, and capacity restrictions, we are unable to meet those guidelines without making the above restrictions.
Remain a Member or Request to Change Your Membership Status
You have a number of options for your membership during our temporary closure:
Option 1: Continue Supporting the Y with Membership Dues and Use Member Benefits
Members who choose to pay their monthly membership dues are our Sustaining Members – because they are helping us be resilient during this chaotic time.
As a member, you get access to:
- Sustaining Member Y Bucks to use when we reopen. You can use these Y Bucks on upcoming membership dues and a variety of programs. These Y Bucks must be used within 90 days of our reopening date. Learn more >
- Access to a growing number of programs as we reopen, including small group exercise and Lose to Win classes.
There is no action you need to take to remain a member. In the meantime, check out all that we are planning for your welcome back to the Y.
Option 2: Turn Your Dues into a Donation
Instead of collecting Sustaining Member Y Bucks, you can turn your dues into a donation.
Option 3: Place Your Membership on Hold or Cancel
Placing your membership on hold will pause your membership dues until your facility opens or age restrictions are lifted. Members on hold:
- Will still be able to use Sustaining Member Y Bucks earned from March-June
- Do not need to fill out a new membership application or scholarship request when they return to the Y
If you need to cancel your membership, you may do so at any time. Your cancellation will occur at the end of your current monthly membership cycle.
Request Membership Cancellation
By cancelling your membership, you will be no longer be eligible for any Sustaining Member Y Bucks. If you choose to rejoin the Y at a later date, you may be charged a join fee and may need to complete a new membership application and/or scholarship request.
