Please arrive dressed in the appropriate attire for the desired activity as the locker rooms will be unavailable for all but restroom and sink facilities.
Pool patrons will need to bring a towel from home as Y towels will be unavailable. The deck showers will be available for rinsing off before and after pool use. This remains an important step in protecting the pool chemistry.

Members
Members will continue to be asked a small series of general health questions and to agree to some special policies put in place to determine facility entry eligibility, as mandated by the New Health Order.
If a member meets the eligibility criteria to enter, Front Desk staff will check to see if their desired workout area is available. If the area is at capacity, the member will be directed to wait until a specified time at which the area becomes available.
If a member is deemed ineligible to enter, they will kindly be asked to leave the Y.
If a member would like to change to a different area of the facility, they are required to check in with the Front Desk to determine if there is space available in the desired area.
Work out sessions are restricted to one (1) hour.
Staff will alert you when you are nearing the end of your session time.
Six (6) feet of distance must be maintained while working out.
Staff will be present to kindly remind members to create appropriate distancing if they observe patrons working out too close to one another. This is not only for the health and safety of everyone in the facility, but will also allow us to remain open and serving the community.
Y members are required to check out at the Front Desk upon departure.

If a staff person is deemed ineligible, they will not be allowed to work until they can meet the eligibility criteria.
