By choosing this option it is understood that children aged 13 -17 are subject to restricted hours from Mon - Thu: 3:45 pm - 7:30 pm and Sat: Opening - noon and will not be able to access the club at these times. Children participating in paid programming during these hours will be allowed access for those sessions.

Annual Pool Access Fee is not prorated and is non-refundable, and member must be active (not frozen or inactive) to receive access to the pool.

This is a rider to the membership agreement between Fitness Formula Clubs and member listed above. It is hereby understood that the member has requested to add Annual Pool Access and will be billed an additional $100 annually for individual or $200 for couples and family membership.

Member agrees to pay the initial Pool Access Fee on date of initial purchase. If Member fails to cancel the Pool Access Agreement by the 15th of the month marking each twelve (12) month anniversary date of this Agreement, the annual pool fee will be assessed.

Member agrees to pay Annual Pool Fee through EFT or ACH in accordance with Member’s Payment Preauthorization contained in the base membership Agreement. Member agrees that the Annual Pool Fee may increase. The Club shall provide Member with notice of Annual Pool Fee increases at the e-mail or street address provided by Member at least 30 days in advance of the imposition. Notice shall be deemed to be given when sent via e-mail or when mailed or placed into the U.S. mail.

The value of the Annual Pool Access fees is not dependent on the availability of the Pool's facilities. Events, parties, repairs and/or maintenance of the facilities may make it necessary for the Club to restrict use of one or more of the facilities or to temporarily close the Club which will not reduce or suspend the Member’s obligation for payment of Annual Pool Fees.

Annual Pool Fee billing cancellation requests must be submitted in writing by the 15th to impact the next billing cycle. Cancellation submissions after the 15th will incur one additional billing cycle.

Payment Preauthorization. Monthly membership fees and the annual or maintenance fee are charged prospectively and on the first business day of the month along with charges for any additional services received or purchases made by Member during the previous month. Member authorizes Club or its agent(s) to make an EFT or ACH withdrawal on the first business day of the month from the bank or credit card account specified below by Member for any amount due from Member under this Agreement on that date. Member recognizes that the amount of the withdrawal may increase due to membership fee, maintenance fee, monthly dues and annual fee increases. Member is entitled to receive written notice of all varying charges or transfers. Member understands, acknowledges and agrees that an EFT or ACH withdrawal is not a varying charge or transfer when the sum of the charge or transfer is comprised of amounts listed in this Agreement, including return fees and balances from prior months, or when the EFT or withdrawal is for a price or an amount of which Member became aware, through writing or some other notice, for such additional services received or for purchases made by Member. By signing below Member agrees to exercise its option to receive advance written notice of a varying EFT or ACH withdrawal when the total amount of the EFT or withdrawal is more than $2,500, which Member acknowledges and agrees is a reasonable amount that a member could expect to incur during any single month of membership. This authorization for automatic debit remains in full effect until Member cancels this Agreement in conformance with the Terms and Conditions. If there is an outstanding balance at the time of cancellation, the Club or its agent(s) will continue trying to collect until the balance is resolved. Member agrees to provide Club with any changes in the account from which payments are to be made and that the Club is authorized to extend the expiration date of any credit or debit card utilized to coincide with any update or reissuance of the current credit/debit card that secures the membership and associated services. Member acknowledges that they are responsible for notifying their bank of any errors that appear on their bank or credit card statement in a timely manner and that they shall notify the Club within 60 days of a claimed error on their bank or credit card statement.

AUTOMATIC RENEWAL - UPON TERMINATION OF INITIAL TERM THIS AGREEMENT WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW ON MONTHLY BASIS UNLESS CANCELLED

This Agreement is for the current prorated month and one (1) calendar month from the Initial Bill Date (“Initial Term”) and may be automatically renewed at the Member’s option on a month-to-month basis. Member agrees that unless Member provides written notice to Club by the 15th of the month preceding the end date of the Initial Term as set forth above, this Agreement shall be renewed automatically upon completion of the Initial Term for successive one month periods at the rate(s) established by Club for the class of membership applicable then in effect, and the term of this Agreement shall be a monthly term. Member’s credit card cancellation or failure to use the Club’s facilities without written cancellation notice does not constitute membership cancellation and does not relieve Member of payment obligations under this Agreement.

Increase in Fees After Initial Term. Member agrees that after the expiration of the Initial Term the Club may increase monthly membership fees. Club shall provide Member with notice at the e-mail or street address provided by Member at least 30 days in advance of the imposition of any increase in monthly membership fees. Notice shall be deemed to be given when sent via e-mail or when mailed or placed into the U.S. Mail.

Monthly Dues Increase and Maintenance Fees At the Start of Each Year. I agree that the Club may increase the amounts and terms of payment in the Club’s sole and absolute discretion and at any time. If the Club may choose, I authorize the Club to initiate an increase of my monthly membership dues amount at the beginning of each calendar year, on or around January 1, regardless of my start date and regardless of the length of time I have been a member. I understand and acknowledge that this dues increase shall apply to former members who return, rejoin or re-activate their accounts after a prior cancellation, after requesting a “freeze” of their accounts or after some other pause in membership.

In the event the initial member terminates his/her membership in the Club, the Spouse/Partner, or Dependent, dues rate will revert to the full prevailing rate for that membership type. Upon becoming age 23 and a dependent on a couple or family membership, such persons shall become a primary member and will be subject to the prevailing membership dues at that time.

4. Enrollment/ProcessingFee. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph No. 11 herein, the Enrollment Fee is nonrefundable. The Enrollment Fee is a fee for membership and not a prepaid sum for services; it merely entitles Members to buy services by paying dues and other applicable charges.
5. Monthly Dues Increase and Maintenance Fees At the Start of Each Year. I agree that the Club may increase the amounts and terms of payment in the Club’s sole and absolute discretion and at any time. If the Club may choose, I authorize the Club to initiate an increase of my monthly membership dues amount at the beginning of each calendar year, on or around January 1, regardless of my start date and regardless of the length of time I have been a member. I understand and acknowledge that this dues increase shall apply to former members who return, rejoin or re-activate their accounts after a prior cancellation, after requesting a “freeze” of their accounts or after some other pause in membership. I also acknowledge and agree that the Club, in its discretion, may charge a Maintenance Fee as part of my membership.

If any check or credit/debit card draft payable to the Club is not honored, the Club will:(a) assess a return fee of $30.00 for each check or credit card rejected to reimburse the Club for the cost of collection, and (b) collect the current and past-due balance in any subsequent month.

The surcharge amount shall not be greater than FFC's actual cost of acceptance of the credit card or any applicable maximum amount, and pursuant to
Illinois law shall not exceed 4% of the amount charged to a member's credit card. I further understand that debit cards do not incur any surcharge, and that I may change a payment method from a credit card to a debit card at any time in person at an FFC facility.
