The Ted Whitlock Community Center offers classes, programs, events, and memberships for all ages. Guests may pay a daily fee or sign up for a monthly or annual membership.

Open Gym Hours
Hours are subject to change based upon availability.

Everyone entering the gym must either pay the $2 daily guest fee or have an active membership.

Children ages 9 and under can use the basketball gym, but must be directly supervised by a parent or guardian age 18 or older.

No one under the age of 5 is permitted in the gym during open gym activities.

You must have close-toed, close-heeled athletic shoes on when using the gyms. 

*Directly supervised is defined as participating in the same activity as the child or observing the child while not participating in a different activity. 

Waivers:

Minors (under 18) who want to use our community centers for open gym activities will now be required to provide us with a waiver form signed by their parents or guardians.

Waivers will be kept on file so that kids may check themselves in on future visits.  This will allow us to have emergency contact information should a minor become hurt while enjoying one of our centers.  

Waivers will need to be renewed yearly.  Minors that do not have a signed waiver on file will not be allowed to participate in activities in our recreation centers without having a parent/guardian present.

Parents/guardians are able to create an online account and sign waivers electronically.  This will keep all the information stored digitally and avoid the need for paper copies.

Parents/guardians can click here to find the online waivers. If you already have an account, just log in and make sure to add your child to your account before adding the waiver to your cart. Go through the entire process, including check-out. The waiver is free, but the check-out process must be completed for us to have it on file. 

We appreciate the community’s help with this new process as we look to keep all our community youth safe and provide them with a place to recreate.
