Virginia YMCAs Join Together to Offer Reciprocal Memberships

8 July 2015

The Y stands for healthy living. To make sure all members continue to be involved wherever they may travel, YMCAs across the state of Virginia have joined together to offer reciprocal membership through the “My Y is Every Y” program.

The program, which began July 1st, allows Y members to access over 80 YMCAs throughout Virginia at no charge when they present a valid YMCA ID card.

“Our members count on the Y for their health and wellness needs. Now they’ll be able to take advantage of what Ys across the state have to offer. We’re very excited to be able to bring this added benefit to members,” said Billy George, President and CEO of the YMCA of South Hampton Roads. “We look forward to welcoming members from other Ys as we all stand together to strengthen our communities.”

Through “My Y is Every Y”, full facility/full privilege members have access rights to over 80 YMCAs throughout Virginia. Members should bring their YMCA ID card and a photo ID to check into a partner Y. Some restrictions may apply depending on the YMCA, so members are encouraged to check with the Y they plan to visit ahead of time to learn the specifics.

“The program is a growing trend across the YMCA movement so we’re pleased to be able to expand these benefits to members here in Virginia,” said Lisa Drouin, Resource Director for YMCA of the USA. “No matter where our members travel across Virginia, they’ll be able to stay connected to the local community and improve their health and well-being.”
