Membership Renewal/Cancellation

Members paying in full on an annual basis will receive a notice by mail approximately one month prior to the expiration date stating the amount to pay to renew. The anniversary date remains the same regardless of the actual date of renewal payment. Annual accounts not renewed within 60 days will be rendered inactive. Members paying via monthly credit card draft will have credit card charged each month on or about the 15th of the month. Credit card draft membership accounts are subject to annual rate increases that typically take effect January 1st. New year’s rate will be stated in Winter program brochure typically available in December. Credit card draft memberships may be cancelled at any time after the first full year.

Requests to cancel any membership inside the first year may not be granted. When you join the YMCA, you are assessed a Joiner’s Fee that is used for Board-approved improvements. If your membership should lapse and you wish to rejoin more than 60 days after your expiration date, you will be required to pay the Joiner’s Fee again and your anniversary date will be adjusted accordingly.

Membership Upgrades/Changes

If, during the course of the year you wish to upgrade your membership (e.g., individual to family, full privilege to long term locker option), you may do so at any time. You will pay the prorated difference between the new membership and the existing membership. Upgrades done within the first year of membership are also charged any difference in Joiner’s Fee between the two membership categories. Other requests for change in membership should be directed to the Membership Administrator.

Membership Hold

If, due to a physician-documented medical reason, you are unable to make use of the YMCA for a period of a month or more consecutively, you may request to have your membership account put on hold until you are able to return. When you are able to resume use of your privileges your account will be adjusted to reflect the time you were inactive. NOTE to Long Term Locker Members – account hold/time extensions will only be granted if locker is surrendered during the time you were inactive. NOTE to those with Family memberships, in order to receive any adjustment for medical hold, all family members must refrain from use of YMCA. Membership accounts may not be held/extended for any non-medical reason, including travel.

Transferring Your Membership – Moving?

Please contact the Membership Administrator about the possibility of transferring your membership closer to your new location. Memberships cannot be transferred within Morris County unless your primary job or residence has changed. Membership fees are neither refundable nor transferable to another party.
