The Lake County Y reserves the right to deny access or membership to any person who has been accused or convicted of any crime involving sexual abuse, is or has been a registered sex offender, has ever been convicted of any offense relating to the use, sale, possession, or transportation of narcotics or habit-forming and/or dangerous drugs, or is presently or habitually under the influence of dangerous drugs or chemicals, narcotics, or intoxicating beverages.

Honesty, the cornerstone of integrity, fosters trust and transparency. It is the commitment to truthfulness even when faced with adversity, laying the foundation for genuine connections and ethical decision-making.
Caring, the essence of empathy, calls us to extend compassion and kindness. It prompts us to understand the struggles of others, creating a community bound by support, warmth, and a shared commitment to each other's well-being.
Respect, the bridge between individuals, transcends differences and embraces diversity. It acknowledges the inherent worth of every person, promoting a harmonious coexistence where differing perspectives enrich our collective experience.
Responsibility, the mark of maturity, compels us to fulfill our obligations and be accountable for our actions. It empowers us to contribute positively to our communities, understanding that our choices ripple beyond ourselves.
A Growth Mindset, the catalyst for progress, invites us to embrace challenges and view failures as opportunities to learn. It fuels a continuous pursuit of knowledge, innovation, and self-improvement, fostering resilience in the face of setbacks.
As a family organization we encourage members and guests to maintain an appearance that is not disruptive, distracting, nor offensive in any regard. Therefore we have adopted a modest dress code which aligns with the Y’s mission and core values so that everyone is comfortable when they come to the Y. Staff may ask a member or guest to change because of inappropriate attire. We hope together we can make the Y the best part of your day!
