This orientation needs to be completed before entering the facility.

Before you head into the YMCA, please read through this orientation (Hmong, Russian, Somali, Spanish) so you feel prepared on your first visit. This short slide deck will give you information about what you can access with your new membership!

Also, on your first visit you will have your photo taken. Please bring a photo ID, preferably a school-issued student ID, for verification.

YMCA membership includes agreeing to policies designed to help everyone feel good about being a part of the Y. Get Summer participants are expected to abide by these polices including the code of conduct.
