You may wish to put a hold on your membership when you know you will not be using it for a period of time. Here is how it works:

Two weeks written notice prior to your payment date is required to hold a membership.
Persons must be a member for a minimum of six months before they are eligible to put a hold on their membership.
Memberships can be held for a maximum length of four consecutive months, once per membership year.
A minimum hold must be one full month.
Membership cards must be returned to Member Services where they will be held for the designated hold period.
Membership payments will automatically resume after the hold period ends.
If a member decides to return earlier than their original hold period, the payments will be adjusted.
Members are responsible for notifying the YMCA-YWCA of Guelph in writing two weeks prior to the end of their hold period if they decide to cancel their membership. A $25.00 cancellation fee will apply.

Wellness members do not pay a joining fee.
You have full acces to the Y and will also have full access to Wellness Programs included in your membership fee.
You choose the membership type of your choice (Membership Plus, Adult, Student) and this will become your monthly fee.
Wellness memberships carry a minimum commitment of 2 months, which is approximately the length of 1 full session before you may cancel or hold your membership.
There is not cancellation fee for Wellness members. We simply require two weeks notice.
Wellness members may also be linked to a family plan, however if the other members of the family are not wellness participants the regular 6 month commitment will still apply for them.
