Wellness Center Procedures for Members

All visitors must enter/exit the MAC building through the main entrance, and successfully complete the daily screening - temperature check, screening questions and face mask in place – before continuing to the gym.

Members are asked to sign in at the front desk when they arrive, and to sign out when they leave. This is for the purposes of COVID-19 contact tracing.

 

Entering the Wellness Center

MASKS: Members should wear a mask while in the gym, and while exercising. If you are actively exercising and wearing a mask would pose a bonafide health risk, you may unmask. Please resume wearing a mask immediately afterward.

SOCIAL DISTANCING: Please practice social distancing at all times (remaining 6 feet apart)

 

At the gym front desk

On the first day you return to the gym, you will give your name and pay your membership fee at the gym front desk; staff will then generate, activate and issue you your membership card. This card will be needed to check in every time you visit the Wellness Center

 

Check-In & Check-Out

Once your membership card is activated, you will simply scan it each time you visit, for a quick, touchless check-in. Before exiting the Wellness Center, scan your card to check out. This is critical for contact tracing protocol.

 Equipment Usage

Please wipe down equipment, and use hand sanitizer before and after equipment use.
Ask a gym staff member for help if needed!
