Member Benefits

With the Y, you’re not just a member of a facility; you’re part of a cause.

With a shared commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, improving health and well-being, and giving back and supporting our neighbors, your membership will not just bring about meaningful change in yourself, but also in your community. You may be joining the Y to be part of a healthy community. But, soon you will realize that you are part of something bigger. You’re support of the Y as a member will help support the larger community.

To meet your own personal and family needs, the possibilities are nearly endless. Increase energy, decrease stress, prevent illness, minimize the effects of chronic disease, learn to swim, watch your children learn through play, find personal balance, enjoy quality time with family and friends, and more… at the Y! We combine spirit, mind, and body in an integrated approach to well-being that goes beyond just fitness through our focus on the Nine Dimensions of Health & Well-Being: Achievement, Belonging, Character, Giving, Health, Inspiration, Meaning, Relationships, and Safety.

YMCA's across New England have made it more convenient for you and your family to access the resources you need to lead a healthy life while traveling. As a member of the YMCA, you have access to other Y's throughout New England at no cost. Simply take your membership card with you when you travel and enjoy membership access to the local YMCA where you're traveling. This reciprocal membership entitles members to utilize another Y's facilities however; programs are at an additional fee.
