At the present time the Wellington gym is open from 5 am until 11 pm every day. However, due to the need for social distancing and the occupancy limits on the gym, only Wellington residents are allowed to use the gym. No guests will be allowed until such time as social distancing measures are no longer necessary. Your neighbors will appreciate your cooperation.
See the links above for requirements and recommendations for coming into the gym and using the equipment. Now that we are re-opening the gym using social distancing, we here at Wellington Athletic Club want to encourage everyone to stay active and healthy during this trying time. It’s important for us all to eat nutritiously, stay active and get plenty of rest while following all public health guidelines.
