Deadlines:

The deadline to submit your paperwork is determined by how you pay for the membership.  Please see below.

  • If prepaid, must show proof of payment for the full year. 
  • If monthly, you must have proof of payment for at least 8-months (payments can be made to different locations. For example: online gym for 4 months and then an in-person gym for 4 months) 
  • The online membership must have a physical fitness/activity component.
