Membership Rate Adjustment

Effective February 1, 2026, membership rates will increase by $1–$2 per month, depending on membership type. This modest adjustment allows us to continue investing in our facilities, programs, and overall member experience while maintaining the high standards you expect from the YMCA. 

Facility & Program Enhancements

Thank you to everyone who shared feedback during our fall membership survey. Many of the improvements currently underway, and those planned for 2026 are a direct result of your input. We are proud to turn your suggestions into meaningful action, including: 

  • Additional equipment added in both branches for the Wellness, Sports, Music & Arts, and Child Watch Departments, with more to come 
  • A major renovation of the Middletown Wellness Center, including new strength equipment, flooring, lighting and more 
  • New flooring in the Monroe Group Fitness Studio and Middletown Child Watch Room   
  • A custom YMCA mobile app, currently in development and scheduled to launch in the spring, featuring: 
    • Easier program registration 
    •  Fitness challenges and engagement tools 
    • More efficient and personalized communication 

We also received feedback expressing interest in a wider variety of group fitness classes and programs. In response, we are prioritizing investment in our staff team in 2026 through enhanced training for current employees and the onboarding of additional team members, ensuring our YMCA remains a place where everyone can thrive. A list of our current programs and member benefits by age category is included on the back of this letter. Looking ahead, we remain committed to upgrading our facilities to better support you and your family for years to come.
