The YMCA was founded on Christian principals and prohibits the inappropriate behavior and conduct. This includes, but not limited to, profanity or abusive language, attire, smoking/vaping, use of alcohol or drugs, the removal of YMCA property or criminal conduct of any type. Such inappropriate behavior is unacceptable, and the YMCA consequently retains the right to deny memberships to its applicants and to revoke a membership of any current member or participants at its sole discretion.
