IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: 

For their own safety, all children must check in at the front desk and be supervised at all times. 

While in the club, children under 13 years old must be in childcare, directly supervised by an adult in the pool, or in a club sponsored activity. The Wisconsin Athletic Club pools do not have lifeguards on duty; therefore, parents are responsible for the safety of their children in the water. 

No child under 13 will be allowed in the Main Fitness Center regardless of parental supervision. Children ages 13-15 interested in use of the Main Fitness Center must schedule an appointment with a Fitness Specialist. An evaluation of the applicant’s physical and emotional maturity will determine which activities are appropriate. (Parent must attend evaluation.)
