Is membership each year automatic? What about membership at the Palestra Fitness Center?
Yes, unless written notice is provided to the Club to cancel your gym membership or Penn Club membership, you will be billed for the new fiscal year’s membership. When you receive that bill, you may notify the Club in writing if you have any changes to your account (e.g. new mailing address, gym membership cancellation, etc.). The Palestra Fitness Center membership dues are an annual contract, billed on a quarterly basis. Please note that if you utilize the club’s facilities (e.g. gym, dining, rooms, etc.) and its member privileges (e.g. reciprocal clubs, notary services, etc.) during the new fiscal year, beginning July 1st, you are automatically renewing your membership and are committed to paying your dues for that year, including the gym dues (if you utilized the gym during the new fiscal year).
