How to Join TF&WC
Read and fill out the new member paperwork and send it to us. We will review it to see if a physician's release is necessary before you begin an exercise routine. If a physician's release is required, we will send a fax to your doctor and await his/her reply.
Then we will set up an appointment for you to come in for an initial assessment. If you join the regular fitness program, this is the only time you will need an appointment. During this assessment, the fitness staff will take your heart rate, blood pressure, and weight. They will discuss with you your fitness goals and then design an exercise plan specifically for you. The staff will also show you the proper way to use the equipment and answer any questions you may have.
Payment Policy
Memberships are on a month-to-month basis. TF&WC bills at the first of every month for that month. If you know that you will not be coming to the facility, let us know in writing before the first of the month by filling out a “membership hold slip.” We will put your account on hold for the amount of time you specify (in half a month or one month increments) and you will not be charged. Hold slips are located at the sign-in table. If you do not let us know in writing before the first of the month that you will be gone, you will be charged and you will be responsible for the balance. Members participating in a prepayment plan, redeeming gift certificates, or utilizing a special promotion offer are not allowed to place their membership on hold during that time.
Special Promotions
Family Discount: two family members can join for $60 per month, or $225 for 4 months.
Details: Dues must be paid by the 10th of the month in order to receive discount. Memberships will automatically renew each month unless specified by the member. Dues for all family members will be billed under whichever family member is deemed 'head of household'. "Family member" is defined as a spouse, parent, or child. It is not necessary to reside at the same address. If the 4 month plan is selected, the family's account cannot be placed on hold during those 4 months. Dues are non-refundable. This promotion is not available for step down or TAKE charge members. If there are more than two people in the family, each will receive a discount of $3 per month, or $5 per month with the 4-month plan.
