Redmond, what we really want is to join the Y. We are impressed with it after bringing N there for swimming lessons.

But at $100/mo for the family rate, that's more than we can swing at the moment.

We were looking at other gyms to see if rates are comparable...but it looks like they aren't available online.

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
