We have Launched a New Online Membership System to Improve Your Y Experience!
Our new system is easier to navigate and provides an improved registration experience for our members and program participants.
All current New Canaan YMCA Members will need to set up a new online account to manage their membership and register online.
Please review the steps below to set up your new online account.

Navigate to the new registration system. Visit www.newcanaanymca.org/registration or click the button below to set up your new account.
Log in to your account. Enter the email or phone number associated with your New Canaan YMCA membership and select “Forgot your password?”. You must then select “Email me a reset password link” as shown below, and follow the prompt in your email to reset your password.
