Gym Discounts

Knox County offers discounted gym membership options. YMCA of East Tennessee and National Fitness Center membership fees are paid through payroll deduction. Memberships are terminated if an employee leaves Knox County. Membership gives you access to all locations for that particular gym.


YMCA of East Tennessee

Knox County employees may join any local YMCA without signing a contract. To enroll, visit any local YMCA with your Knox County ID badge or recent pay stub, complete the membership application and fill out a payroll deduction form.

Membership can be terminated at any time by visiting a YMCA location.
