Thousands of kids in the Twin Cities will be given free access to the YMCA this summer thanks to a partnership with the Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation.

Their partnership strives to strengthening communities through youth development and healthy living, and with that they're offering free memberships for Twin Cities-area students in grades 9-12.

The memberships are good from June 4 to Aug. 31 and they include:

Access to the gyms for basketball and volleyball.
Indoor and outdoor pools.
Weights, cardio machines, and all other workout equipment.
Exercise classes.
Healthy meals
Leadership development and career readiness.

Students with a valid ID, class schedule or report card and permission of an adult are eligible. Current YMCA members are not eligible.

You can sign up online or in person June 1-15, and the earlier the better because each YMCA in the metro area can only accommodate 250 free memberships.
