To accommodate extended travel (more than a month) and medical disabilities, Island Fitness offers membership holds (freeze). Island Fitness will only freeze memberships that are in good standing with all current fees paid.

If you are freezing your membership because of a medical disability, you must provide Island Fitness with verification from your physician stating that your medical disability will prevent you from using the facility.

To allow adequate time to process your request, please provide Island Fitness with thirty days notice prior to a travel related freeze.

Membership Freeze Dues are $10/month.

Membership Parking Policy
Island Fitness has two parking lots with plenty of dedicated parking places for the sole use of our members. In addition, there is plenty of parking surrounding Island Fitness on Winslow Way, at City Hall, and at the BPA Playhouse for our use during non-business and non-performance hours.

Upon joining you will receive a parking permit/sticker with a number and expiration date. Please adhere the sticker to the driver’s side of your front windshield.

The permit allows you to park in the designated Island Fitness parking lots while you are using the facility, ie: please only use the lot when you are working out at the fitness center.

Membership ID/Swipe Cards
Upon joining Island Fitness, you will be issued a Membership ID/Swipe card and your picture will be taken for your electronic membership file.

Please swipe your card each time you enter the fitness center. For your convenience, your card has a hole in the corner for attaching to your key chain. Alternatively, you may file your card in our file boxes at the front desk.

Your Membership ID/Swipe card is for your sole use. We will confiscate a card if it is used by anyone other than its owner. If you lose your card, Island Fitness charges a $5 replacement fee.
