The Greater Marco Family YMCA has the right to suspend or cancel a membership if the members' behavior or language is judged to be in conflict with the welfare of other members or staff, or in conflict with the YMCA's purpose. The Chief Executive Officer will render the final decision on a revoked or suspended membership. Transferring Membership You must first cancel your membership at the other YMCA. The Greater Marco Family YMCA will not charge the joiner's fee if your transfer occurs within 90 days of your membership expiration. Lockers Lockers are available for your use during your visit to the YMCA.
