Where do I enter the building?
Fitness center activities are accessible from the main door as usual. However, to get to the pool you will need to park by the side of the building and follow the signage to the pool entrance. We enabled direct access to the pool to minimize traffic inside the building for the health and safety of our community.
What do I need to know before my first visit?
All JCC members will need to read and sign a waiver when they first come to the JCC. You can print it at home and bring it signed if you wish. We highly recommend that you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled timeslot, to allow for the check-in process.
How are you protecting the health and safety of JCC members?
We comply with the latest state and federal guidelines and CDC recommendations including social distancing and extensive cleaning protocols. Everyone entering our building are required to go through a temperature check and a health screening. All visits to our facilities are by appointment only. This is how we assure that the safe number of users in each area of the building is not exceeded. Every piece of equipment, doorknobs, and railings will be cleaned between sessions, and all areas will be closed for 1-2 hours during the day for additional deep cleaning. Everyone is required to wear a mask while at the JCC (except when on a cardio machine or in the pool) and floor/wall markings guide one-directional traffic and facilitates safe-distancing.
