GLASGOW — Wednesdays at the Y
The YMCA will offer 50 percent off the joiner’s fee every Wednesday. That’s a savings of up to $45 for a family membership.
The discount may not stop there. Come in to try your luck at a YMCA contest in an effort to increase that discount. Spin a wheel, draw a card, or play another game that could result in up to a waiver of the joiner’s fee.
Call the YMCA Welcome Center at 651-9622 for more information.
