Resolutions: No join fee at the YMCA this month

Quality is an important characteristic of any gym.

As you boldly begin your New Year’s resolution to lose some weight and get in better shape, keep in mind that not all gyms are equal. While costs will vary greatly for monthly memberships, remember to take into account what that monthly membership is paying for. If you simply sign up for the cheapest membership you can find, your gym may not be as up to par as other alternatives. And lets face it – exercise isn’t usually all that fun. If you’re going to stick it out and make this resolution a reality, it helps to have a great gym environment like the one available to you at the YMCA.

With several locations around town, the YMCA is more than just a gym. It is a centerpiece of the community, hosting events every month and leagues to sign up for. The company is guided by family values, and your resolution will benefit from the positive atmosphere. Of course, there’s a cost for the premium product you’ll receive, but we know of a way to save you money on that membership if you act now.

Between now and Wednesday, January 16, you can sign up for a YMCA membership with no join fee. This alone will save you over $50 and allow you to experience all the YMCA has to offer for FREE for a month.

For those of you Cheapsters out there who are already members of the YMCA, you can probably testify to the fact that it’s a great business. To ensure this post isn’t just directed at prospective members, we want to also let you know about the new program being offered through the Indy Bike Hub YMCA. They are starting a new group called Discover Downtown that will journey out together each month to try something new. For example, the group will be heading to Fountain Square on Tuesday ,January 8 for Bluegrass in the Garden at Arthur’s Music Shop. If this group sounds like something that would be up your alley, stop by the front desk next time you’re at the YMCA for more information.
