Union Privilege is starting off 2004 by adding two new Union Plus programs to its growing list of benefits and services – the Union Plus Health Club Discounts and Home Heating Oil Discounts programs.

Did you make a New Year’s resolution to lose weight and take better care of yourself? If so, we’ve got a program just for you -- the Union Plus Health Club Discounts program. This program is designed to help you and your family improve your health and save 20 to 60 percent on monthly health club fees. For a list of participating health clubs and program details, call 1-888-294-1500 or visit, www.unionplus.org/healthclubs.

According to the Department of Energy, 6.6 million households, in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states, currently heat their homes with fuel oil. The Union Plus Home Heating Oil Discounts program will help you save $200-$300 annually on the cost of heating oil for your home.
