We also highly recommend that members exercise with other 24-hour access members when using the facility outside of staffed hours. 

After regular building hours, members will tap their fob to unlock the front door. Upon entrance, members will need to scan their membership barcode to track their attendance. When entering and exiting the facility, please ensure the door closes behind you. Do not hold the door for anyone, as each person will need to use their own fob. For your safety, the Y always monitors who is in the building.

Staff will review the video footage on a daily basis to address any security concerns and monitor for appropriate usage.

During inclement weather, you may still access the facility after hours, but at your own risk. 

There is a $25 replacement fee for lost, stolen, or damaged fobs. A replacement fob can be purchased at the YMCA front desk
