All memberships provide complete access to the facility's fitness center, aquatic center, gymnasium, and track during regular operating hours. The Vandalia Recreation Center (VRC) offers three price classifications of membership based on residency:

• Resident- Any person who resides within the corporate limits of the City of Vandalia. Since the city and school district boundaries are not the same, this is not to be confused with being a Vandalia-Butler School District resident. Proof of residency (state-issued photo ID or utility bill and valid ID) is required to qualify for resident rate. VRC staff will confirm residency through Montgomery County.
  • Resident ID- With proper identification, a VRC Resident ID can be obtained free of charge at the VRC Front Desk. We encourage all Vandalia Residents nine years of age and older, who are not members of the VRC, to obtain a Resident ID. The Resident ID will provide quick identification at the VRC and ensure resident rates are applied.
• Business - Any household that does not reside in the City of Vandalia, but is employed within city corporate limits. Proof of employment must be presented at the time membership is purchased by providing a current pay stub or a letterhead document from your employer.
• Non-Resident- Any person who does not reside within the corporate limits of the City of Vandalia. While your mailing address may be Vandalia, this does not always qualify you as a City resident.

Membership Categories

• Family - A married couple or single adult and any children (17 years of age or younger and/or still in high school) residing in the same household and claimed on their most recent federal income tax return. Any child attending a university or college full-time may be included in a family membership with proof of enrollment.
• Dual - Dual consists of any two people residing in the same household. Both parties must provide proof of residencies such as a valid driver's license, utility bill, or recent tax forms.
• Adult - Any person, eighteen (18) years of age or older.
• Youth - Any person, ages 5 to17 years of age, or current high school student.
• Senior Adult - Any adult age 62 or older (for purchase of memberships only).
• Senior Dual - Senior Dual consists of any two people residing in the same household and must be age 62 or older. Both parties must provide proof of residencies such as a valid driver's license, utility bill, or recent tax forms.
