Will my membership rate increase?

If there are any rate adjustments, members will be notified at least 2 months in advance. 


I froze my Platinum Membership, but I’m still being charged. Why?

Platinum is an add-on to your Base membership. If you froze only the Platinum portion, your Base membership remains active and billable.  Have questions?  Stop by the Membership Office; we’re happy to help. 


I had a locker before the renovation. Will I get the same one back?

If you completed the locker opt-in form, your original locker will be reserved for you once the Platinum locker rooms reopen. 


Can I rent a locker in the general locker room?

Locker rentals are not available in the general locker rooms due to space limitations. However: 

  • You can purchase a lock for $5, or
  • Borrow a complimentary day-use lock at the front desk

Can I leave my items in the general locker room overnight?

No. General lockers are for daily use only. Items must be removed by the end of each day.


How do I get towels?

Towel service is included with Platinum-level memberships only. 
Interested in upgrading? Visit the Membership Office to explore your options.


When is coffee being offered?

We’re hosting pop-up appreciation events, including coffee and refreshments for our valued members. While these do not follow a set schedule, keep an eye out for announcements in the building or on social media! 


What equipment will be in the new functional fitness space? 

The upgraded space will feature: 

  • Two custom hub training systems with integrated storage 
  • A wide variety of Escape Fitness functional training tools 
  • Three new squat stations 
  • Heavy pro punching bags  
  • Two adjustable cable columns 
  • Refreshed cardio equipment lineup 
  • 50 feet of turf with sleds for strength and agility training

This area is designed for maximum versatility and impact, something for everyone!
