Inclement Weather Reminders
Posted by Rochester Athletic Club on December 17, 2024
With the arrival of the winter season there also comes the possibility of inclement weather. For the safety of our members and staff we at times may need to adjust club hours or programming. The following reminders are a good resource in these poor weather situations.
CLUB CLOSING NOTIFICATION
- Club closing or reduced open hours are first communicated through Facebook and in a special orange banner that will appear at the top of every page on the website. If you have the RAC app, you will also receive a notification if you allow notifications on your device.
CLUB PROGRAMMING GUIDELINES
WHEN SCHOOL IS IN SESSION - The club follows the lead of the Rochester Public Schools:
Public School Late Start- All fee based classes are cancelled until 12 pm.
