Online Sign-Ups for Limited Use:

The general guidelines that Symons Recreation Complex will be following to ensure the health and safety of our staff and users are:

If you are sick, stay home. If you have a temperature, stay home. If someone in your house is sick, stay home.
If you have allergies and can’t control sneezing, stay home.
Use online gym/workout services if possible. See above for log on information
When walking through the facility, maintain a distance of at least six feet from other members and employees if at all possible.
Plan your workout routine ahead of time to avoid lingering and socializing. This will allow more members to work out given the reduced occupancy necessitated by distancing requirements.
Limit the items you touch within the gym to only the items you will use.
The water fountains will not be accessible, until we move into Phase 2. Please bring water from home.
The moveable floor fans have been removed. They will not return until Phase 2.
Wear a mask as you enter and leave the building. Consider wearing a mask during your workout. Symons Recreation Complex staff will be wearing masks and practicing social distancing.
Wash your hands before you start working out and after you finish your workout. If it is not possible to wash your hands, use hand sanitizer when you enter and before you leave. Hand sanitizing stations are located throughout the facility.
Avoid using lifting gloves or other personal items that are not easily cleaned.
Wipe down each piece of equipment before and after you use it, using a fresh wipe each time, and dispose of the wipes appropriately.
If you get the urge to sneeze or cough, put on your mask (if not already wearing one) and cover your nose, mouth and mask with a napkin or handkerchief. Wash your hands and face thoroughly before returning to your activity.
Symons Recreation Complex will provide gloves for any user that requests them.
Once the staffed hours begin, a special time frame will be reserved for older adults. This time frame is Monday –Friday 8am-noon. We will not be offering children programming during this time frame.
The facility has the right to refuse service to anyone exhibiting symptoms or not following facility guidelines.

The following information is for Phase 1 of opening the facility. Phase 1 only allows for 10 people in a space. So that will mean 10 people in the exercise rooms and 10 people in the pool area. The Richland County health department will let us know when it is safe to increase move into Phase 2 which allows for up to 50 people per area.

Adult lap times– Only 10 people** will be allowed in the pool at one time. This will be 5 lap swimmers and 4 walkers, during adult lap times. All people using the pool must maintain 6 feet distancing.

** The rule for 10 people is defined as 1 person from a family. So if 2 adults from one family come swimming, they may share a lap lane. The will count as 1 person. The lifeguard counts as a person, so eight more people will be allowed access to the pool.

Showers/locker rooms

The locker rooms will be cleaned hourly. There will be a limit of 6 people in a locker room at a time.

Please let the receptionist know which locker that you used, and it will be disinfected, between users.

Leave the pool, through the atrium doors, onto the patio, and then to the sidewalk. This will prevent our lobby from getting slippery.
