HEALTHY HAPPENS HERE2016 SESSION CALENDAR


4 l 2016 C.W. Avery Summer Program Guide

Those who agree with the mission of the YMCA, but choose not to take advantage of year-round facility use, may purchase a program membership. Program Members pay a low fee each year in order to be able to register for YMCA programs, but pay as much as twice the cost for YMCA programs and pay daily to use YMCA facilities. Program Members must also wait until two weeks before the start of each session to register for programs.

Program Members who choose to become Full Members will receive a credit for the remaining portion of their program membership, as well as a credit for the difference between the Full Member and Program Member rates for any programs in which they are currently enrolled, if the membership upgrade occurs within the first two weeks of the session.

Payment of Membership FeesMembership fees are not refundable and are payable through a monthly bank draft. The monthly amount is debited electronically from a checking account (debit or credit card also accepted) on the 15th or 28th of each month. Drafts are ongoing until cancelled in writing by the primary member, no less than 10 days prior to the scheduled draft date. Cancellations are accepted by fax, email, mail or in person. Those who prefer to pay their membership fee annually may do so by cash, check or credit card. A $25 fee will be charged for membership fees that are returned and unable to be processed. Members who change their billing or payment methods, including reissued and expired credit cards, should notify the Membership Desk to avoid any interruption in services.Membership Cards and Photo IDsIt is necessary to present your membership card for admittance to the YMCA. Daily visitors and members who forget their cards must present photo identification and may be denied access. There is a $5 fee for replacing lost or damaged cards. Full Family Members using Kidz Korner services must have their cards and their children’s cards when checking in.

Why the YThe Y is an association of people who have committed to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all people, regardless of their ability to pay. We are a non-profit, charitable organization established to provide programs and services to youth, adults and families in order to strengthen the community. The YMCA is funded locally. Funds raised through contributions, endowments and membership fees are used to provide services in Will, Grundy and part of Kendall Counties.

Your Y Membership Offers All This and More!Everyone belongs at the YMCA! We’re more than just a place to work out; more than a place where families can spend quality time together; more than a place to learn to swim; more than a place for kids to play team sports; and more than a place for seniors to stay young at heart. We’re all those things and more. We’re a place where you belong!

Y Member Benefits: • Galowich-Smith Full Members enjoy unlimited use of the Galowich and Smith Family YMCAs and the Morris Community Y. They may also use the C.W. Avery Family Y twelve times during a calendar year. • C.W. Avery Y Full Members enjoy unlimited use of the Avery, Galowich, Smith and Morris branches. • Morris Y Full Members enjoy unlimited use of the Morris Community YMCA and twelve visits to the Galowich, Smith and C.W. Avery Family YMCAs during a calendar year.• Priority registration on all programs. • Lower member rates on programs. • Five guest passes per calendar year.• Full Members enjoy free fitness orientations.• Free child watch services with a family membership. • No contracts to sign. • When you join the YMCA, not only do you get a good value, you get good values. That’s because everything we do is centered around the Christian character values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.

Member Code of ConductIn support of our Christian character values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility, all members are expected to behave appropriately while using YMCA facilities and abide by the Member Code of Conduct and Discipline Policy. Those who choose to act inappropriately, as defined by YMCA staff, may be asked to leave the building. Repeat offenses may lead to a membership suspension or revocation of all privileges.

AWAY Program - Always Welcome at the YMCAWhen you travel outside of the greater Joliet area, you can use your Y membership at more than 2,000 locations across the country. Some guest fees and limitations may apply. Please contact the Y you are visiting for details. Members from other YMCAs across the country may enjoy the amenities at the Greater Joliet Area YMCA branches up to twelve times per calendar year. Please contact the Membership Desk for hours, availability and additional information.

Bring a Friend to the YCurrent members may bring guests to the Y to share the YMCA experience. When a friend joins the Y, members receive one FREE month of membership. New members must maintain an active paid status for a minimum of two months. Plus, your friend will receive a gift for joining! See the Membership Desk for guest and referral details.

Transferring Your Y MembershipMembers of other YMCAs looking to join the C.W. Avery Family Y should cancel their existing memberships and speak to a representative of our Membership Services Team.

Giving back and providing support to our neighbors.FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

MEMBER SPOTLIgHTMeet J.P. Fox

J.P. Fox and his family joined the C.W. Avery Family YMCA many years ago thanks to the financial assistance they received from the Y’s scholarship program.

Ever since, J.P. has spent countless hours within the confines of our pool—first for swim lessons, then as a Porpoise Club swimmer, and now as a YMCA lifeguard.

The Y, J.P. says, has become his home away from home. The people inside have become his second family.

At the 2011 Giving Gala, J.P.’s mother Jackie spoke about the impact the Y had on her family, inspiring many guests to make a donation to the Y’s scholarship fund.

Nearly five years removed from that night, J.P., now 17, has decided to pay it forward with a contribution of his own. Recently, he made a very generous donation to the Y’s Annual Campaign.

“I was once part of a family that needed a scholarship to go here,” he said. “I feel like it’s my time to give back to the Y and help people who need it. Hopefully they will get the same opportunities I did. To have a second home and family.”

You can make a similar impact in the life of a YMCA family. Funds raised during the 2016 Annual Campain will benefit the Y’s scholarship fund, ensuring no one is turned away from the Y due to the inability to pay.

DONATE TODAY!

For more information on how you can make a tax deductible donation to the YMCA, please contact:

Funds donated to the Y’s annual Campaign help to ensure that no one is turned away from the Y due to the inability to pay.
