Dear Kroc Community,

STAYING SAFE TOGETHER

As we prepare to reopen our wellness center on Monday, May 11, the Kroc Center is adhering to the phase 1 framework and implementing the following safety protocols in an effort to reduce the health risks for members, staff and other visitors to our facility.

WHAT WE ARE DOING

Single Entry/Exit: To help us maintain our safety protocols, we will maintain a single entry/exit point at our location.
Regular Temperature Checks: Both staff and members will receive temperature checks before being allowed to start their work shift or to check into the facility.
PPE for All Staff: All staff will be required to wear masks and other personal protective equipment.
Self-Scan: Members will be asked to self-scan to allow for limited contact entry.
Designed for Social Distance: All open areas inside the Kroc have been evaluated and redesigned where necessary to help ensure social distancing between members. Signage will be placed prominently throughout the facility to drive awareness of this requirement.

HOW WE’RE ASKING MEMBERS TO HELP MAINTAIN SAFETY

The Kroc Center appreciates your support adhering to the following safety precautions during this time:
Stay Home if You’re Sick: Members should stay home if they don’t feel well. The CDC and state public health officials encourage seniors and members of vulnerable populations, including those with underlying health conditions, to stay at home.
Be Ready for Temperature Checks: All members will have their temperature taken prior to check in. We will also ask you five health screening questions when you enter the center.
Plan Your Visit: We must adhere to set capacities for 45 minute blocks of time, so make reservations for when you plan to visit the Kroc Center for Fitness or Child Watch.
Refrain from Using the Locker Room: Changing rooms and showers will remain closed at this time. Signage will be posted directing you to the nearest restroom.
Bring a Towel, a Mask and a Water Bottle: Members should plan to bring their own water bottle and a workout towel per each visit. All members will be asked to sanitize their hands before entry at a station provided by the Kroc Center. We also request that members bring a mask and wear it whenever possible, especially in common areas where other members are present.
Keep Your Distance: Cardio/Weight equipment has been rearranged so that members can continue to keep social distancing standards. Equipment should always stay in the designated areas. Respect all signage regarding social distancing. Strive to maintain at least six feet between you and others whenever possible.
Expect Reduced Capacity: To ensure proper social distancing, our wellness areas will have a limited capacity of 25%. Active members can sign up for a 45-minute workout block by going to our website and clicking the link to reserve a spot.
Remember to Wipe Down Equipment: Please help us reduce the risk of exposure by wiping down all equipment, weights, mats, etc., with the provided cleaning materials.

HOW WE’RE ASKING MEMBERS TO PLAN THEIR VISIT

To help us adhere to capacity restrictions and plan for proper cleaning of our facility and equipment, you will need to place a reservation for when you plan to use the space. Reservations begin at the top of the hour and last for 45 minutes. After the 45 minutes you will be asked to leave the area so we can clean. You may arrive up to 15 minutes before your scheduled reservation.
If you do not make a reservation, we cannot guarantee there will be space for you.
NOTE: We have moved fitness equipment around to new areas of the building to create more space between pieces of equipment.
