Refunds

Membership refunds are only permitted when there are extenuating circumstances that limited you from notifying the YMCA of your cancellation. These would need to be accompanied by proper documentation (i.e. doctor’s note).

Under these circumstances, the YMCA will not refund more than six months of membership at any given time.
