UPDATED MEMBERSHIP WAIVER AND CODE OF CONDUCT: Please review & sign the new Membership Waiver and Code of Conduct before you enter the YMCA of Montclair. We deeply appreciate your help in practicing all safety guidelines to protect each other’s health.

1. SCREENING & TEMPERATURE CHECK: For the safety of all, all members, program participants, and staff must complete a pre-screening and have their temperature taken prior to entering a YMCA facility. Look for the Screening Station upon arrival – it is a fast and easy process that uses a touchless thermometer (100 degrees or higher will not be admitted).
2. PRE-REGISTRATION: To help us maintain physical distancing, reservations are required for all activities on our MotionVibe online program.
3. FACILITY CAPACITY LIMITS: We currently adhere to the State of New Jersey 50% capacity guideline.
4. PHYSICAL DISTANCING: We adhere to physical distancing requirements throughout our facilities and in our programs. We appreciate your help in keeping everyone safe.
5. FACILITY TIME LIMITS: There are time limits for certain activities to allow others to access our facilities, equipment, and programs.
6. WEAR A FACE COVERING: We follow recommendations from the CDC and the Governor’s Orders, requiring all members, program participants, and staff to wear a face covering.
7. BRING YOUR OWN: Please bring a water bottle, towel, and mat if needed. Unfortunately, water fountains will not be available, but water bottle filling stations will remain open, so be sure to bring your bottle.
8. CLEAN YOUR EQUIPMENT: Please wipe down equipment before and after each use. Cleaning supplies are provided.  This is imperative for the safety of all.
