Cornerstone has set etiquette policies and procedures in place that we request of every person who uses the facilities. The policies and procedures help to insure your safety, maintain your workout environment and keep your experience here at Cornerstone one of the best parts of your day.

• Please consult a Personal Trainer in order to assist you with the design of a personalized fitness plan. Physician consent may be required prior to starting a routine.
• Please report any injuries sustained on the fitness floor or in a class to a trainer or instructor immediately upon occurrence.
• Please report any equipment malfunctions to a trainer immediately so we may check the equipment safety and a repair work order form can be completed.

Fitness Center Etiquette

Proper workout and foot attire is required: athletic shoes must be worn. No open toed shoes permitted. PLEASE no cell phone use on the fitness center floor. The use of a “personal towel” for each workout is encouraged. Also, please wipe down all equipment after usage with towels and disinfectant spray provided throughout the fitness center. Please make sure that equipment is turned to the “off” setting prior to leaving all pieces of cardiovascular equipment.

Free Weight Area

Please re-rack all weights and return all other training aids, bars and bands to their original location after use. No dropping of the dumbbells. Please only lift what you can set down properly after your repetitions. Please do not place dumbbells or other metal attachments on the half walls, on equipment or anywhere that is not considered safe. Please ask a trainer for a spotter if needed and always utilize safety clips and settings.

Spinning / Group X / Arena / Training Room Utilization

These rooms are designated for use during supervised classes, workshops and personal training sessions only. All members must be under supervision while using the equipment in the rooms and therefore these rooms are NOT intended for general membership usage.

Inclement Weather Policies & State of Emergency Notices

Cornerstone is committed to minimizing any reasons that would cause us to close our facilities or alter our services in any way. However, in the event of inclement weather (primarily snow and ice) we may cancel group exercise classes or possibly close. This decision is made solely out of concern for potentially endangering our members and staff by prompting them to drive in dangerous conditions. During inclement weather you are encouraged to call Cornerstone prior travel during questionable or inclement weather as we may have altered our schedule based on the following circumstances:

Weather Factors that may alter our standard opening/closing and class schedule:

• Weather report indicates extremely hazardous conditions.
• CentralBucksSchool Districthas cancelled or delayed opening (2 hour delay or half day delay in opening).
• If dangerous snow or ice accumulations occur or if a “state of emergency” is declared, CHF will close.

The following are our specific policies:

• If there is 2 hour delay in the CBSD or NHSD opening schedule all GX classes will be canceled and morning CornerKids childcare service will open and be available at 10:30am. CentralBucksSchool District: www.cbsd.org  |  New Hope/Solebury School District: www.nhsd.org
• Mid Day School Closings: The club will remain open for normal operating hours under most circumstances. If there is a SCHOOL CLOSING that is posted later in the day there may be modifications to the Group Fitness Class schedule and the CornerKids Play room hours. Members are encouraged to call the club for changes to the schedule.
• In case of early closings, if time allows, the CHF staff will attempt to make courtesy calls to inform members who are signed up for spin, Pilates and zone classes.
• Please Note: If there are school closings and CHF maintains its regular schedule, please note that we will NOT have childcare or activities for children over the age of 6, other than the regularly scheduled classes on the 7 & up program schedule.

We will do our best to announce any foreseen weather or emergency changes on the home page of each club when possible.
