Bring identification when purchasing a membership. The City accepts proof such as a driver’s license, state-issued ID or birth certificate. Proof of residency may be needed to receive resident rates.
Fort Worth states membership cards can be used at other municipal community centers and Haws Athletic Center. For another Fort Worth facility, see our Southwest Community Center hours, membership and recreation guide. Southwest offers Bronze Tier fitness access rather than Chisholm Trail’s Gold Tier.
Gold Tier Fitness Membership: Actual Prices
Chisholm Trail is listed as a Gold Tier fitness facility. Fort Worth’s Gold membership permits access to Gold, Silver and Bronze Tier community-center fitness rooms.
The City’s fitness pricing combines annual center membership with fitness access. Do not add the annual community membership price again unless staff specifically explains a separate charge.
| Gold Tier Plan | Resident | Nonresident |
|---|---|---|
| Youth | $19/month or $145/year | $38/month or $290/year |
| Adult | $24/month or $190/year | $48/month or $380/year |
| Senior | $18/month or $140/year | $36/month or $280/year |
| Family | $52/month or $540/year | $98/month or $1,030/year |
| Additional family | $14/month or $110/year | $28/month or $220/year |
| Military | $20/month or $158/year | $20/month or $158/year |
| Special populations | $14/month or $110/year | $32/month or $240/year |
Choose daily admission or a basic center membership if you mainly want scheduled open play, sports or community activities.
Compare monthly and yearly Gold memberships. An adult resident paying $24 monthly would spend $288 over 12 months, versus $190 for the published yearly plan.
Some eligible older adults may qualify for supported fitness programs such as SilverSneakers or Renew Active. Check eligibility with the program and the center before purchasing a paid membership.
