ACTiVE, STrONGHEALTHY, HAPPY KiDSSaturday, April 309 a.m.-NoonHealthy Kids Day is a YMCA initiative that’s designed to raise awareness about the importance of establishing healthy habits in kids at a young age. The goal is to encourage more kids to stay moving and learning, so they can stay active all summer long—which is critical during out-of-school time.

Healthy Kids Day is a free event that is open to the entire community. Festivities include a health and wellness expo featuring local vendors, kids games, exciting prizes, giveaways and YMCA membership specials.

GIVING GALA


2 l 2016 C.W. Avery Winter/Spring Program Guide

Those who agree with the mission of the YMCA, but choose not to take advantage of year-round facility use, may purchase a program membership. Program Members pay a low fee each year in order to be able to register for YMCA programs, but pay as much as twice the cost for YMCA programs and pay daily to use YMCA facilities. Program Members must also wait until two weeks before the start of each session to register for programs.

Program Members who choose to become Full Members will receive a credit for the remaining portion of their program membership, as well as a credit for the difference between the Full Member and Program Member rates for any programs in which they are currently enrolled, if the membership upgrade occurs within the first two weeks of the session.

Payment of Membership FeesMembership fees are not refundable and are payable through a monthly bank draft. The monthly amount is debited electronically from a checking account (debit or credit card also accepted) on the 15th or 28th of each month. Drafts are ongoing until cancelled in writing by the primary member, no less than 10 days prior to the scheduled draft date. Cancellations are accepted by fax, e-mail, mail or in person. Those who prefer to pay their membership fee annually may do so by cash, check or credit card. A $25 fee will be charged for membership fees that are returned and unable to be processed. Members who change their billing or payment methods, including reissued and expired credit cards, should notify the Membership Desk to avoid any interruption in services.

Membership Cards and Photo iDsIt is necessary to present your membership card for admittance to the YMCA. Daily visitors and members who forget their cards must present photo identification and may be denied access. There is a $5 fee for replacing lost or damaged cards. Full Family Members using Kidz Korner services must have their cards and their children’s cards when checking in.

Why the YThe Y is an association of people who have committed to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all people, regardless of their ability to pay. We are a non-profit, charitable organization established to provide programs and services to youth, adults and families in order to strengthen the community. The YMCA is funded locally. Funds raised through contributions, endowments and membership fees are used to provide services in Will, Grundy and part of Kendall Counties.

Your Y Membership Offers All This and More!Everyone belongs at the YMCA! We’re more than just a place to work out; more than a place where families can spend quality time together; more than a place to learn to swim; more than a place for kids to play team sports; and more than a place for seniors to stay young at heart. We’re all those things and more. We’re a place where you belong!

Those who choose to act inappropriately, as defined by YMCA staff, may be asked to leave the building. Repeat offenses may lead to a membership suspension or revocation of all privileges.

AWAY Program - Always Welcome at the YMCAWhen you travel outside of the greater Joliet area, you can use your Y membership at more than 2,000 locations across the country.

Transferring Your Y MembershipMembers of other YMCAs looking to join the C.W. Avery Family Y should cancel their existing memberships and speak to a representative of our Membership Services Team.

MEMBEr SPOTLiGHTMeet Erin and Willis

Seven-year-old Willis Terry is a true Y Kid. The Y is where he was first introduced to sports such as soccer and basketball. It’s where he and his Grandpa have made memories swimming in the pool. It’s the place that provides him with before and after school care each day.

“Based on the experiences that we’ve had at the YMCA, I would suggest it to anybody,” said Erin Davis, Willis’ mother. “For me, the biggest benefit has been the sense of security. The Y has the best child care that’s been offered to me. It works around your schedule and around your income. They understand that life happens.”

With the assistance of the Y’s scholarship program, Erin is able to send Willis to Kidz Zone at Walker’s Grove Elementary School. A single parent, Erin works full-time as a restaurant manager, while also pursuing a bachelor’s degree in business management and human resources.

Because of the Y’s Kidz Zone programs, Erin can go to work each day knowing that Willis is in good hands. When she attends classes at night, she can rest assured that Willis has completed his schoolwork.

Erin credits the Y as a big part of Willis’ growth over the years. When he first came to the Y, Willis was typically pretty shy. Now, Erin says, Willis’ confidence and social skills are greatly improved.

“Compared to other care places, the YMCA has values to make sure that you see your child grow,” Erin said. “I don’t see the Y being out of our lives anytime soon. We’re going to be here a while.”

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization, the Greater Joliet Area YMCA provides hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarship funds each year to those in need of financial assistance. To learn more about our People Helping People Scholarship Program, please contact your local branch.

For more information on how you can make a tax deductible donation to the YMCA, please contact:

Funds donated to the Y’s annual Campaign help to ensure that no one is turned away from the Y due to the inability to pay.
