A Tradition in the Hillcrest Community Since 1946 

Striving to meet the recreational needs of our 

surrounding communities, SELREC has grown into a 

Recreation/Community Education hybrid, offering over 

400 classes and programs designed to enhance your 

active lifestyle. 

SELREC seeks to build a sense of community from 

among a diverse population based on common 

interests, values and the social and recreational needs. 

The variety of activities offered is in response to the 

interests of our community. Good health, friendships 

and opportunities for sharing family time are all endless 

benefits of recreation.

Eligibility 

Registration is open to anyone for most of 

our programs. Some programs are limited to 

members of the Hillcrest Family YMCA as well 

as Program Members. All others are considered 

non-members. We do register on a first comefirst 

served basis regardless of residency, unless 

otherwise noted under the actual program. 

You are encouraged to register early as many 

programs have a limit and can fill quickly. 

Hillcrest Family YMCA Policies 

Attendance Policy 

Your inability to attend a class because of a change 

in personal circumstances does not warrant a 

refund. YMCA Program credits will be issued only 

for extended illness and/or injury documented and 

signed by a physician. Credits will not include the 

cost of any materials and/or supplies purchased for 

students by the instructor for their class. 

Fees/Payment 

Registration fees for all listed programs are payable 

through the Hillcrest Family YMCA and must be 

paid in full prior to the first scheduled class. Our 

instructors cannot and will not accept registration 

forms and/or fees at the program site. Early 

registration and payment is critical for the viability 

of these classes and for assurance of your spot 

in the class or program. We reserve the right to 

accept or deny registrations if they are received 

late. You may pay by cash, personal check, 

money order, Visa, Master Card or Discover for 

any program. If you charge programs by phone, 

you acknowledge that you have read and fully 

understand the refund policy. Please have your 

credit card number, expiration date and security 

code handy when you are registering. 

Returned Check Policy (NSF) 

In accordance with the rules established by the 

National Automated Clearing House Association 

(NACHA), we have chosen to utilize electronic 

collection of checks returned for insufficient 

funds (NSF). Such checks will be submitted 

electronically through the Automated Clearing 

House (ACH) Network for redeposit and the 

check writer’s account will be debited for both the 

face amount of the check and a returned check 

fee! 

Confirmation/Cancellation 

We do not mail confirmations for class 

enrollments. We will make every attempt to 

notify you in advance if a class is cancelled, 

changed, or if your registration is received after 

a class is already full. If enrollment is insufficient 

for any particular class, the class will be cancelled 

and fees will be refunded in full within 4 to 6 

weeks after cancellation. We do reserves the 

right to cancel, combine or divide classes, to 

change time, day, date, or place of meeting, to 

change the instructor assignments, and to make 

revisions in these offerings. We will contact you 

of any changes so it is very important that you 

supply us with at least two contact phone numbers 

as well as a current working email address. 

Non-endorsement Policy 

Instructors are contracted or hired because 

they have a special skill or talent which they are 

willing to share with our communities. Please 

note however, we do not endorse the opinions or 

business affiliations of our instructors/independent 

contractors. 

Liability 

We do not provide insurance for program 

participants. You must be aware that 

participation in activities can sometimes result in 

injuries, understand the risks to these activities, 

and make no claim or demand against the YMCA, 

SELREC, the City of South Euclid, the City of 

Lyndhurst, and/or the SE-L Board of Education 

or their agents and employees in the event of an 

accidental occurrence. 

Children/Siblings 

Children are not allowed to accompany you to 

adult classes. Also, unregistered siblings are 

not permitted to attend youth or teen classes. 

High school students may register for most adult 

classes provided they are held in the SE-L school 

district locations. 

Senior Citizens 

Adults ages 60 and over may pay the senior fee 

when noted. All other classes which do not list a 

separate senior fee are available at the full fee. 

Inclement Weather Cancellations 

When the South Euclid-Lyndhurst City Schools 

are not in session or are dismissed early due 

to inclement weather, all daytime, afternoon, 

and/or evening classes being held in any SE-L 

buildings will not be held, regardless of weather 

changes. Classes missed due to bad weather or 

other “acts of God” will be added on to the end 

of the session whenever possible. We, however, 

reserve the right to terminate any class with 

fewer than the scheduled number of meetings, 

without issuing a refund or a credit if we cannot 

add it on at the end of the session. Programs held 

in other school districts or at the Hillcrest Family 

YMCA (i.e. Mayfield, Shaker Hts., or Beachwood) 

follow their respective building and/or school 

closing schedules. Feel free to call the Hillcrest 

Family YMCA after 4:30pm for class cancellation

be contacted for class cancellations.

Accuracy 

Our goal is to ensure each brochure is free of 

errors; however, there are times when errors 

in dates, times, rate or registration/program 

information do occur. We will do everything 

possible to correct such errors, and we 

appreciate your patience and understanding 

when these situations arise.

most people, including financial 

advisors, only think of trusts in terms

benefit, they can also provide many 

more protections such as shielding inheritances

marriages, bad judgement, creditors, 

and more. Get an overview of how they

Trips 

Riverside Inn 

Come enjoy a bus ride and an afternoon 

of excellent food and entertainment! 

One of the biggest attractions of the Riverside 

Inn today is its charm of yesteryear. 

Situated on the banks of French 

Creek, Cambridge Springs has been 

in continuous operation since 1885. It 

was built to accommodate wealthy patrons 

during the exciting “mineral water 

boom” of the late 1800’s and early 

1900’s. In The Last Romance, a heart 

warming romantic comedy about the 

transformational power of love, a crush 

can make anyone feel young again - 

even a widower named Ralph. On an 

ordinary day in his routine life, Ralph 

decides to take a different path on his 

daily walk, one that leads him to an 

unexpected second chance at love. Relying 

on a renewed boyish charm, he 

attempts to woo the elegant, but distant, 

Carol. Defying her resistence, and 

his lonely sister’s jealousy, Ralph embarks 

on the trip of a lifetime regaining 

a happiness that seemed all but lost. 

In Boeing, Boeing, an architect living 

in Paris has been successfully juggling 

three flight attendant fiancees with his 

housekeeper reluctantly playing romantic 

air-traffic controller as they fly 

in and out of his swank bachelor pad. 

But when an old school pal visits, things 

get rather turbulant. Schedules change, 

flights are delayed and chaos ensues in 

this whirl of mayhem and matchmaking. 

In The Marvelous Wonderettes, 

you will be taken back to the 1958 

Springfield High School prom where 

we’ll meet the Wonderettes, four girls 

whose hopes and dreams are as big as 

their crinoline skirts! Learn about their 

lives and loves and be treated to their 

performance of some of the classic 50’s 

and 60’s songs like; “Lollipop,” Dream 

Lover,” “Stupid Cupid,” “It’s My Party,” 

and over 20 other hits - a must-take 

musical trip down memory lane. You’ve 

never had this much fun at a prom! 

Fee for each of these exciting trips will 

include the Noon performance, bus 

transportation and lunch. Depart from 

and return to the Mayfield Village Civic 

Center on Wilson Mills, where you can 

safely leave your vehicle.

CORPORATE 

WELLNESS 

Health and wellness within your organization 

is achieved one employee at a time. 

Most employees know that regular exercise, wise eating 

decisions and regular check-ups will give them the greatest 

opportunity to live a long, productive life. 

And, most companies know that a healthy, active 

workforce is a productive workforce. 

However, many individuals do not always make the best 

decisions when it comes to their health and well-being. 

They may not know how or what to do or have the 

resources to make appropriate lifestyle changes. 

That’s where the YMCA comes in. 

We can build the program you need to help your 

employees and their families be healthier and more 

productive.
