How to Apply & What to Know
Applying for 24/7 access is simple. Here’s everything you need to know before heading to Member Services.
How to Apply
Y members ages 18 and older may apply for 24/7 Wellness Center access at the Member Services desk of any YMCA of the Fox Cities location.
- To apply, you must sign a 24/7 access waiver and agree to abide by our policies.
- The cost is $5 per person per month.
- If you do not have a smartphone, you may purchase a physical Kisi fob for $6.
- The Y will notify you when your access has been approved — this process typically takes 1–3 days.
- Please note: 24/7 access is available to YMCA of the Fox Cities members only.
- Each member (age 18+) must have their own separate access and must scan in individually.
- Individuals with a day pass, one-month membership, AWAY membership, Nationwide membership, or other short-term membership are not eligible to apply.
Accessing the Building with Kisi
- To access 24/7 facilities after staffed hours, download the Kisi app to your smartphone.
- Enable Bluetooth and location services, then open the app when approaching the facility and tap the location you wish to enter while holding your phone up to the reader at the front door.
- The door will activate and the reader will turn green.
- The door will re-lock automatically after 5 seconds — ensure it closes behind you.
- Everyone must use their own app or fob to enter.
- Do not hold the door for anyone else — this is important as the Y tracks who is in the building at all times.
- Your Kisi app or fob may not be shared with anyone, including family members.
Safety & Security During Non-Staffed Hours
- Our 24/7 wellness center areas are protected by advanced security video surveillance. However, there is no staff available during non-staffed hours — we recommend exercising with another 24/7 member whenever possible.
- An emergency telephone, First Aid Kit, and AED are located at the wellness center entrance.
- In case of emergency, please dial 911.
- Parking lot lights remain on after the Y closes. Park in a lit area.
- Snow removal does not occur until regular business hours — during inclement weather, access after hours is at your own risk.
- The Y will post closed hours for select holidays and inclement weather.
Honor Code
The Y’s 24/7 Wellness Center Honor Code is based on our core values of honesty, respect, caring, and responsibility. These guidelines exist to protect our members and our property. If a member fails to abide by 24/7 access policies, their access — and potentially their Y membership — will be revoked with no refund given.
