GENERAL INFORMATION

Pool Procedures: Showers are required before using the swimming pool.  A lifeguard must be on duty before entry to the pool is allowed.  Members must follow lifeguard instructions on pool use at all times.  Band-aids, food, and gum are not permitted in the pool area. Drinks are only allowed in plastic or paper containers. Disposable diapers are not permitted in the pool.  Please use cloth diapers with rubber pants or swim diapers.  Flotation devices are not permitted.

Lockers: Available for free daily use or for annual rental.  We encourage the use of a padlock to secure belongings.  The YMCA is not responsible for the loss of personal property.  We discourage bringing valuables into the locker rooms.  Lockers are for day use only; please remove your lock when you leave the premises.

Lost And Found: For sanitary and security reasons, articles found in the building can only be kept for a short time.  Please check promptly if you have lost something; unclaimed items are donated to local charities.  The Y is not responsible for lost items or the contents left in lockers overnight.

Class Make-Ups: You may only attend classes for which you are registered.  No make-ups are allowed in other classes.  If the YMCA cancels a class, every effort will be made to provide a make-up.

Refunds and Credit Policy: Refunds for program fees will only be approved in the following instances: the YMCA cancels a program; the participant withdraws from the program and submits a completed request form prior to the start of the session; or for medically documented reasons. Program credit will be extended ONLY if the request form is submitted prior to the midpoint of the session AND only for medical reasons documented by a physician.  Participants may request a credit in lieu of a refund.

Cancellations: All classes are run based on a minimum enrollment. The Hamden/North Haven YMCA reserves the right to cancel classes due to a lack of enrollment. The YMCA is not responsible for missed classes due to inclement weather and will not issue credits or refunds; however, every effort will be made to make up such classes where possible.

Class Registrations/Schedules: The schedules and fees noted in this brochure are subject to change. A membership card must be presented at the time of registration. Registration may be done in person or over the internet at www.cccymca.org.
