Duke University Partners with Local JCC on Discount Membership Program

Duke University, Durham, NC, is expanding its Duke Fitness Club employee discount gym membership program to a local Jewish Community Center (JCC).

Earlier this month, the university announced the partnership between its Live for Life employee wellness program and the Levin JCC of Durham.

From Duke University:

"By signing up through the Duke Fitness Club, faculty and staff receive a waived $150 initiation fee and can have monthly membership dues taken from their direct deposit paycheck. Monthly costs, which include all-inclusive access to the JCC, range from $60 for an individual to $97 for a family with two adults and dependents."

The Duke Fitness Club consists of nearly 3,000 Duke staff, faculty and family members. A Duke Fitness Club registration requires a three-month commitment. After that, participation is based on a month-to-month basis, according to the university.

The JCC is one of 26 member facilities of the Duke Fitness Club program. Other facilities in the program include the Duke Raleigh Hospital Wellness Center, Fitness Connection and the Triangle YMCA.
