Program Registration Policy
Sign up online using the ONLINE PORTAL
Members and program participants now have access to their Lakota Family YMCA account
online. Once you are registered for access in the Online Portal, you can register for most
programs and events, pay off balances, email, view account history and print receipts.
Instructions:
To register through the Online Portal, call the YMCA's Welcome Center at
(513) 779-3917 to be placed in our system. Make certain that ALL family members connected
to you are in the system.
*Don't wait until the day of registration to be set up to use the Online Portal.
Call ahead to make sure you and your family are listed in our system*
NOTE: Online registration is your best way to get into a class each session. Registration
starts at 8:00am on registration day. Walking in on registration day is your second best
option. Calling in to be set up on registration day is not recommended, since this puts you in
a call que and would prevent you from getting into a specific class or session.

to emulate a warm home setting with intellectual stimulation,
supportive of the school age child’s emotional, social, cognitive

experience and genuine concern for children. The staff has also
under gone YMCA training in emotional and physical child

Insanity is a total body workout.
You exercise, using your own
