The excitement is building as we get closer to the opening of the new Cal Community Center! As the pictures below demonstrate, it is going to be a beautiful facility!
The facility will be home to a wide range of programs offered by the Caledonia Resource Center, and through a partnership with the YMCA we will be able to bring even more opportunities to our residents. Whether you’re looking to join a fitness class, enjoy a swim, or simply engage with others in the community, the center will offer something for everyone. Here are answers to some commonly asked questions about our partnership with the YMCA:
Q1. Where can I get help with my YMCA membership?
A1. We’re happy to help!
Q2. I am eager to use the facility! How can I join?
A2. Starting Thursday, February 27, the Cal Community Center will be open for in-person YMCA membership sales. Please note that while a membership is required for general facility use, it is not necessary for those participating in Caledonia Resource Center programs or school district activities such as swim meets.
Q3. Do local taxpayers receive a discount?
A3. Absolutely! There will be a 10% discount on the YMCA “branch only” membership rate at the Cal Community Center for taxpayers of Caledonia Community Schools. Please note that the YMCA has six other branches throughout the Greater Grand Rapids area and a full YMCA membership gets you access to all the branches, while a Cal Community Center “branch only” membership applies to the Caledonia Community Center location.
Q4. Will Silver Sneakers memberships be accepted?
A4. We understand how important the Silver Sneakers program is to many of our community members. While Silver Sneakers memberships won’t be accepted at this facility, there are discounted rates for seniors. Additionally, the YMCA is partnering with FitOn Health and adding One Pass in 2025, offered through Priority Health. If you have additional questions about either of these plans, please reach out to your respective health plan provider
