Redmond, what we really want is to join the Y. We are impressed with it after bringing N there for swimming lessons. - kelly Mar 28, 17:17 27
- do you have a Lifetime Fitness around you? I love the place, great day care and pools -- nm - Remlik Mar 28, 17:40 2
  - Nope, none within 25 miles. -- nm - kelly Mar 28, 18:09
  - Is that owned by the Lifetime Channel? -- nm - Bacon Mar 28, 17:41
- Aaah. I am guessing the Y is the most family friendly. We have gyms here as low as $10 a month. None with a pool though. - Bacon Mar 28, 17:23 7
  - Really? Strange. The book we grabbed from the Y last week had it at $100/mo. - kelly Mar 28, 17:25 6
    - the Y offers subsidized rates for seniors, welfare, and discounts to unions, military, medicare subsidies (doc prescribes water aerobics etc) -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 28, 18:08 2
      - Ok? -- nm - kelly Mar 28, 18:10 1
        
        Check and see if there is a category you might qualify under. -- nm - tl Mar 28, 18:12
    - I'm on the website for Metro DC Y, and it is impossible to find membership rates. ugh. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:33
    - I linked it below -- nm - Bacon Mar 28, 17:26 1
      - Thank you!! -- nm - kelly Mar 28, 18:23
- its $75 a month for my mom and I, even though mom hasn't gone in 2 years, yeah families can run to $100 -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 28, 17:22
- hmmm. I use the county pool for $30 a month, for just me. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:21 2
  - And the Y is a shit-ton more than the pool. They have a great care center where you can drop the kid while being there for no charge. -- nm - Spawn Mar 28, 17:22 1
    - the Y is great. no question. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:22
- That sounds pretty rich for the Y, wow. -- nm - Shaun Mar 28, 17:20 1
  - They cost you. Luckily, Amy gets a library discount. -- nm - Spawn Mar 28, 17:21
- holy shitstacks. i thought $72/mo was brutal. -- nm - TFox Mar 28, 17:18 9
  - That's not including the fee to join. - kelly Mar 28, 17:22 8
    - I see the Y as $99 to join and $79 a month -- (link) - Bacon Mar 28, 17:25 7
      - That is so strange. Our local Y website has a similar rate, but the booklet had $100. I will have to check into it. - kelly Mar 28, 17:28 6
        
        it looks like each one sets its own rate. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:34 4
        
        That site said membership gets you into all the Y's in Maryland -- nm - Bacon Mar 28, 17:35 3
        
        the area of Maryland I guess -- nm - Bacon Mar 28, 17:35 2
        
        I don't know if the Huntings are technically in Metro DC, but that is its own region. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:36 1
        
        yeah, it looks like Fredneck is in the Metro DC Y region. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:42
        
        IIRC that sounds closer. They way I remember it is that we get a rate of $55, a savings of $25. -- nm - Spawn Mar 28, 17:31

  - THIS. -- nm - Mop Mar 28, 18:13
  - people have lived for 50 years! ok more than that. with low def. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:22 3
    - well...yeah, but.....why? -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 28, 17:24 1
      - because I don't like spending money on unnecessary crap. -- nm - loosi at home Mar 28, 17:39
    - Those fools!!! -- nm - Shaun Mar 28, 17:24
- I would not say "without" it. - Spawn Mar 28, 17:11 1
