Athletic Facilities | Print |  E-mail

Our athletic facilities are located on the lower levels of the Temple House. There is an attendant available at all times when the facilities are open, and there are locker facilities for men and for women. It is possible to leave small personal items (i.e. sneakers, a racquet) at the Temple between uses.

CBE Gym and Pool Membership is available to all Temple members as a benefit of Temple membership. Temple members who wish to use the gym or pool during membership hours must obtain a Gym and Pool Membership Card from the Temple Office during office hours.

Gym and Pool Membership is also available to up to 50 non-Temple members at a cost of $300.00 for an individual and $400 for a family.

No one will be admitted to the gym or pool without a Membership Card. All gym and pool users must sign in at the Garfield Place security desk prior to entering the gym or pool.

Children under the age of 14 may not use the pool or gym unless accompanied by an adult.

Pool

CBE Pool

The swimming pool measures 60' by 20' and has four lanes. It is accessible from both the men's and women's locker rooms, as well as from the hall. A lifeguard is always in attendance.

All pool users must shower before entering the pool.
The pool may not be used if a lifeguard is not present.
Bathing caps must be worn in the pool.



 
CBE Gym

Gym

The large gymnasium is located on the floor below the pool and is equipped with basketball hoops and volleyball nets.

When the gym has not been reserved in advance, its use is on a first come/first served basis and is limited to one hour if there are members waiting to use the space.

Temple members who would like to find other members to join them for a game of basketball, volleyball, squash or handball should contact the Executive Director, who can provide them with information about scheduling availability and can post requests for players on the Temple’s list-serve.

GUESTS
Temple Gym and Pool Members may be accompanied by no more than two guests at a time when using the pool and no more than four guests at a time when using the gym. There is a $5 fee for each guest, which must be paid when the members and guests sign in. Guests may not use the facilities unless accompanied by a Temple Gym and Pool Member.

Non-Temple Gym and Pool Members are not permitted to bring guests.
