[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for doing this OP. It will help many families. Maybe consider asking Jeff to lock it.

I’d also add that ITS is $299 if you’re a YMCA member.[/quote]

Looking at the ITDS YMCA form right now.

YMCA Full Privilege Member: 
Full time enrollment- (5days a week PD days and most breaks included. No federal Holidays. 
Before care $75 (all grades, NO part-time option) 
Aftercare full time: Prk-5th $299, 6th-8th $219, B&A Combo $370
Aftercare 3 days: Prk-5 $210, 6th-8th $160, b&acombo $250
Aftercare 2days: Prk-5 $160, non option for 6+, b&a combo $180 (this still allows for full time before care, but part time after)

NON YMCA MEMBERS OR "Program Only Members" 
Before care $125 full time only.
After Care Full Time:  Prk-5 $349, 6-8th $257, B&A $425 (Full time enrollment in after care includes PD days most breaks, no fed holidays) 
After Care 3days: Prk-5 $240, 6-8th $185, B&A combo $300
After Care 2 days: Prk-5 $185, No 6+ option, A&b combo $240.

One time annual enrollment fee for NON Full Privilege YMCA Members: $62 for 1child, $114 2*or more children.

YMCA Membership seems to be about $100-140 a month depending on family size.  You do get access to the YMCA and all it has to offer and discount on summer camps, classes etc. 
If you don't plan to use the membership or their summer camps families with 1 child don't save anything. 
2 or more children and you start to break even or get a head with the membership. 
Families would have to run the numbers on costs of extras like swimming lesson, summer camps to see if it is worth the deal. With all the free and cheap dpr options and the location of the Ymca I am not sure it makes sense for smaller families.

There are also instructions on the form to pay a $50 registration fee. I am unclear if that is a typo and in the same thing as the 'one-time annual fee' if it is separate and in adtion too. Or if that is a different fee for families who wish to do drop in only. 
I do not see any fees listed for drop in only costs or drop in days or or break camps. Though I am told this is possible to do. But without knowing these fees I can not be sure what it sht better deal.

FYI You can also be a member to the Silver Spring Y (about half the price) and still get the discounted rate.[/quote]
