YMCA Memberships
BF is a member of the YMCA and pays $35 a month. They have a family membership available for $44 a month. Would we qualify as a "family"? If it makes a difference, we live together and will be engaged soon.
Re: YMCA Memberships
All are individually run so what flies at one location may not at another. BF and I do not live together nor are we engaged but we are on the same Family Membership including our 5 kids between us.
Kelly Monaghan's 5K - 5/15/11 - 3rd Place in AG
Walk the Talk 5K - 5/18/11 - 31:12 PR

You'd have to call, but I'm pretty sure you would not qualify. My understanding is that the YMCA receives federal funds as a 501(c)(3) organization, and therefore is required to define "family" the way the federal government does. That means that living together, among other forms of a family, is not recognized for the purposes of membership since it's not a legal designation.
This may vary by location, though. They may have been able to update their rules (one can only hope), plus I had heard that there is the option of specific locations using private funds to allow this. But that was a while ago so I don't know if anything has changed.
You would qualify at my Y:
Two (2) Adults/Couple
Two adults, sharing the same residence married, engaged or defining themselves as mutual, significant others.
My Lunch Blog
We got a 2-adult "family" membership to the Y before we were married.
I don't remember being "quizzed" on our "family" status at all.
