Memberships Automatically Put On Hold

All active memberships will be placed on hold effective Friday, Jan. 14 at 12:00 AM. This means no membership funds will be removed from the member’s account during this time. All memberships will be taken off hold once the move to Level 2 is announced and we are able to re-open our facilities.

Members will be able to donate their membership fees to Strong Communities if they request by emailing donate@saintjohny.ca.
