Dear Member,

This past February I sent you a letter outlining some operational changes we were striving to implement by the end of May. This summer brochure reflects some of the initial changes in these important areas:

Program Registration Procedures
Monthly Class Sessions and Fees
Children of Family Members Receive 50% Off Swim Lesson Fees
Reinstate National YMCA Swim Class Ratios and Duration
Provide More Open Swim Time
Summer Day Camp Is a Weekly Program (not daily or hourly)

PROGRAM REGISTRATION
In order to ensure appropriate ratios, safety, quality and organization we must know each class size prior to its beginning. We will have specific registration dates for most of our classes – especially swimming, fitness and Day Camp. Unless otherwise indicated in the brochure please follow the established registration dates. Class enrollment is on a ‘first come first serve basis’ so we strongly encourage you to follow the registration dates as classes will close as ratios are reached.

50% FEE REDUCTION
Children of family members will receive 50% off all swim lessons year round. Just present your membership card at registration verifying your current family membership.

We will monitor the skill levels that fill quickly. It is our intent to offer more class times of our most popular levels (pre-school and youth) as we progress through the summer and into the fall.

MONTHLY CLASS SESSION AND FEES
Unless otherwise indicated in the program brochure, our classes are offered on a monthly basis and monthly fee only. The ‘pay as you go’ option is no longer available for classes – excluding Silver Sneakers.

NATIONAL YMCA SWIM CLASS RATIOS AND LENGTH OF INDIVIDUAL CLASS TIMES
In order to improve our class quality, safety and organization the following class ratios and times will be followed:

Parent/ Child	12 to 1 ratio	30 minute class length
Pre-School	6 to 1 ratio	30 minute class length
Youth	8 to 1 ratio	45 minute class length

SUMMER DAY CAMP – WEEKLY ONLY
Camp is developed with weekly themes, activities and fees. Participants must enroll the Thursday before the week they will be attending. One of our goals with camp is to provide an environment for kids to develop relationships and social skills. Weekly participation is critical in meeting this goal. We strongly encourage your child’s participation every day and only weekly fees are available.

Thank You,

Gary Miller, CEO
