YMCA of the North Offers Discount to Military Members on Veteran's Day Weekend

Minneapolis, MN – The YMCA of the North, a leading nonprofit dedicated to strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, will offer veterans, active military members, and their families a $1 enrollment fee and no membership dues until January 2018 when they join the Y on Veteran’s Day weekend.

For years, YMCAs across the nation have honored and recognized the dedication, sacrifice, and service of military personnel and their families. The YMCA of the North supports military families this November and throughout the year with programs and initiatives that improve their well-being and provide opportunities to connect with their communities.

“The YMCA is committed to supporting active military members, veterans and their families,” said Glen Gunderson, president and CEO of the YMCA of the North. “Whether it’s providing a place where kids can make friends and have a sense of belonging, or providing a place for adults to meet health goals, the Y is able to help.”
