DEAR MILL CREEK YMCA COMMUNITY
Spring has finally arrived! The Y is busy with all of our
programs from sports to summer camp registrations and
the wrap up of our Annual Campaign. It is so heartwarming
to walk into the Y and see the seniors interacting, the child
care staff engaged with the children and the wellness
classes as full as ever.
Big news for our senior members - we continue to offer
SilverSneaker® programs, and this year we have added the
Silver and Fit program, which has allowed us to reach out to
even more seniors through their health care provider. Check
with the Welcome Center staff for more information.
If you are a new member or a long time member and you
have not had the opportunity to sign up for your free
Wellness Connection please check with our engagement
team at the Welcome Center to get started.
Coming soon will be bringing MOSSA to our group exercise
classes and Mobile Fit to the Welcome Center. Watch for
more details on these exciting enhancements.
The Y serves so many people from every age and ability,
from those with the ability to pay and those who are
sponsored. We make such a difference in the community and
provide a sense of belonging to all we serve.
The Y Annual Campaign is about serving everyone and our
goal is never to turn anyone away because of the inability
to pay. This year, our Annual Campaign goal is $127,250
and to date, we are 37% of the way to our goal. Our hope is
to not just raise the money for scholarship dollars, but also
to tell our story. With your help we are able to make a
difference in the overall health of our community!
We are always looking for ways to make your member
experience the best it can be. If there is anything we can do
to improve your experience please let me or another
member of our team know!
Thank you for choosing to be a part of the Mill Creek YMCA!

MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION
MEMBERSHIP TYPES
FACILITY MEMBERSHIP
Get full access to fitness centers at all five YMCAs in Snohomish County
with a Facility Membership. Choose from a wide menu of free group
exercise classes, enjoy lap and recreational swimming, and receive a free
wellness orientation when you join. And as a facility member, you’ll be
eligible for priority registration and reduced fees on specialty classes and
programs for your whole family.
PROGRAM MEMBERSHIP
If you’re not already a Y Facility Member and want to participate in
programs like summer camps, youth sports, swimming lessons and child
care, you’ll need an annual Program Membership. You’ll receive the same
great level of quality and caring for which the Y is known, but without
access to wellness centers and other amenities offered through a full
Facility Membership.
COMMUNITY MEMBERSHIP
Belonging is a philosophy at the heart of the Y. Everyone in the
community is considered a free Community Member and is welcome to
participate in key community events and programs such as fun runs,
health fairs, and community education.
MY Y IS NOW EVERY Y IN WASHINGTON
We want to encourage members to use the Y as often as they can.
Sometimes, it’s more convenient for members to use a Y in a different
location when travelling, near a workplace, or in another region. Now, full
facility/full privilege YMCA members can use other Y facilities throughout
the state. See website for program details.
CORPORATE MEMBERSHIP
As part of the YMCA’s corporate membership plan, employees will enjoy
the benefits of belonging to Snohomish County’s largest and most
respected health, wellness, and human service organization. For more
information about corporate membership, please contact the our Senior
Director of Member and Community Engagement.
MEMBERSHIP FOR ALL
We believe everyone deserves a Y experience, so the YMCA of Snohomish
County offers financial assistance to individuals and families who might
otherwise not be able to afford membership or program fees. Ask a staff
member about financial assistance.
NOW IT’S EASIER THAN EVER TO JOIN THE Y! Membership in the Y is a special thing. Be a part of a leading nonprofit organization for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
The YMCA of Snohomish County is a membership organization and anyone can join. So, with simple monthly dues, you have no contracts or
minimum stays to worry about and no sales pitches to endure. Just quality, healthy programs that your whole family can enjoy.

LEED
The Mill Creek Family YMCA has received a silver level certification
rating by the U.S. Green Building Council, LEED (Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design) Green Building for the 2010 expansion we

on careful construction practices, non-toxic material selections,
efficient lighting and heating equipment, and a healthy, comfortable
indoor environment.
OUR MISSION
To inspire, nurture, and strengthen culturally
vibrant communities through youth development,
healthy living, and social responsibility.

Your membership card is valuable and important. A valid membership
card or photo ID is required every time you enter the Y. If you lose
your card, you can get a replacement for a small fee.
GUESTS
Your membership includes 12 complimentary guest passes per year -
please use them! Each pass, stored electronically on your membership
account, is good for one redemption at any branch of the YMCA of
Snohomish County, and admits one person or one family to join you at
the Y. At busy times, the Y reserves the right to limit guest usage.
All guests must present photo identification and adhere to facility
guidelines. A guest may use Y facilities up to three times in one
calendar year with a member. Thereafter, a day pass or membership

membership fees and ensure your membership is current. New
membership activation requires a one-month payment of membership
dues and pro-rated monthly fees at time of enrollment as well as
banking account information or a credit card. If your banking or credit
card information changes, please let us know at least 15 days before
your draft, or you may be charged a $30 NSF fee for nonpayment.

membership one year at a time. This option requires payment of 12
months at time of enrollment.

YOUTH SPORTS
The Y is the starting point for many youth to learn about
becoming and staying active, and developing healthy habits
they’ll carry with them throughout their lives. And the benefits

the positive relationships that lead to good sportsmanship and
teamwork, participating in sports at the Y is about building the
whole child, from the inside out.

YOUTH SPORTS (CONT.)
The YMCA approach to Youth Sports is different from many
leagues. We focus on the four YMCA core values of caring,
honesty, respect, and responsibility. Every child gets equal
playing time and we encourage fair play, positive competition,
and family involvement. Our goal is to enable each player to
excel in that other game we’re all familiar with; the game of life.
All of our sports promises no tryouts, no getting cut, and no
bench warmers. All divisions are co-ed.
Our sports leagues are coached by volunteers; if you are
interested in coaching one of our teams please indicate so
on your child’s registration form, or ask about coaching at
our Welcome Center.

EXERCISE AND FITNESS AS YOU AGE
As you grow older, an active lifestyle is more important than ever. Regular exercise can help boost energy, maintain your independence, and manage symptoms of illness or pain. Exercise can even reverse some of the symptoms of aging. And not only is exercise good for your body, it’s also good for your mind, mood, and memory. Whether you are generally healthy or are managing an illness, there are plenty of ways to get more active, improve confidence, and boost your fitness.
Starting or maintaining a regular exercise routine can be a challenge as you get older. You may feel discouraged by illness, ongoing health problems, or concerns about injuries or falls. Or, if you've never exercised before, you may not know where to begin. Or perhaps you think you're too old or frail, or that exercise is boring or simply not for you.
While these may seem like good reasons to slow down and take it easy as you age, they're actually even better reasons to get moving. Exercise can energize your mood, relieve stress, help you manage symptoms of illness and pain, and improve your overall sense of well-being. In fact, exercise is the key to staying strong, energetic, and healthy as you get older. And it can even be fun, too, especially if you find like-minded people to exercise with.
Tips for getting started safely:
Get medical clearance
Consider health concerns.
Start slow
Commit to an exercise schedule
Stay motivated by focusing on short-term goal
Recognize problem
Experiment with mindfulness. Instead

VOLUNTEERISM & GIVING

community advocates, parents, teens, and individuals who want to give
back and support their neighbors volunteer at the Y. In 10,000
neighborhoods nationwide, including Snohomish County, we have the
presence and partnerships to not just promise, but deliver positive
personal and social change. Y volunteers give men, women, and children
of all ages and from all walks of life the resources and support they
need to be healthy, confident, connected, and secure.

Lead our Board of Directors and branch committees.
Raise funds to ensure the Y is accessible to all members of the
community through our Annual Campaign.
Motivate and support youth through coaching our sports teams

FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Financial assistance keeps the Y available for kids and families who
need us most. We count on the generosity of our members and
community to help people of all ages and from all walks of life be more
healthy, confident, connected, and secure. When you give to the Y, your
gift will have a meaningful, enduring impact right in your own
neighborhood. The Y’s Financial Assistance Program is supported by
contributions to our Annual Campaign and United Way.
TOGETHER, WE CAN BUILD A BETTER US
Every day, the YMCA of Snohomish County gives our
community the support it needs to learn, grow, and thrive.
From advocacy to food security, disease prevention to athletics,
football to dance classes, everything we do helps strengthen our
neighborhood and the people who live here.
But keeping our neighborhoods great is a full-time job. Every
day, our community faces new challenges that create a greater need
for the work we do. And we need your help to do it. Your gift can
help Snohomish County and everyone in it shine.
For a better you. For a better community.

ANNUAL CAMPAIGN
JOIN US ON OUR JOURNEY!
At the Mill Creek Y we have a plan for a better us! Our goal for the 2016 Annual Campaign is to raise $127,250 and with your help we know we can get there. Every dollar raised can help change the course of someone's life, right here in our community.
With Annual Campaign funds we are able to offer program opportunities to those that would otherwise not be able to participate at the Y. These funds provide hope, inspiration, and acceptance to those who really need it.
Please join us on our journey to help write the next chapter for so many families and children, and please consider supporting the Annual Campaign this year through volunteering or donating.
DOESN’T MY MEMBERSHIP FEES COVER THE YMCA’S PROGRAMMING COSTS TOO?
In simple terms Membership Fees support the operations of a Y such as towels, front desk staff, lights, pool heat and lifeguards, equipment, equipment maintenance and upgrades, facilities staff, some portion of our health and well-being staff, etc.
Annual Campaign funds support the mission of the Y such as teen centers and the staff who mentor the teens by providing support and encouragement, school age child care financial assistance so families have a safe and supportive place for their children after school and before their work day is done, membership financial assistance ensuring the Y is accessible for all, community outreach programs, LIVESTRONG, ACT!, MAP, our Youth Development Centers, the list goes on and becomes increasingly unique depending on the needs of the local community. To put it another way, Membership Fees provide the tools while Annual Campaign Contributions provide the opportunities. Both are important and one can hardly exist without the other.
