Replacement Card Fee: $5 per card

If you misplace your membership card, you will need to check in at the service desk before proceeding to the fitness center, gymnasium or pool. Our staff will provide you with a confirmation pass. Members will be allowed 5 passes before they will be asked to purchase a new card.

Financial Assistance/Scholarships

The Edwardsville YMCA has established reasonable membership and program fees. We realize that some individuals and families from our community may not be in a financial position to use our services. We believe we have a responsibility to provide the assistance necessary to make sure local District #7 residents have access to the YMCA. Please contact the YMCA for financial assistance information. Scholarship program made possible by support from the United Way and the YMCA Century Club.
