Rules & Regulations

Dublin Recreation Services is committed to providing quality recreation programs and facilities for the Dublin community. Use of the facilities by families and citizens is strongly encouraged. The following policies have been established to operate the DCRC and to ensure our patrons quality and safe recreation experiences:

  • Proper and valid identification is required to gain access to the DCRC. Users of the DCRC need to check in at the front desk and provide annual pass, resident card, temporary pass or pay the daily pass rate for admittance.

  • Annual pass holders who do not present their annual pass will only be admitted if an alternate form of photo identification is produced.

  • Resident card holders must present their Dublin Resident ID card each visit to receive the daily pass discount rate.

  • Annual passes are not transferable and will be deemed void when in the hands of those other than the proper registrant.

  • The DCRC and its grounds are smoke- and alcohol-free environments by City ordinance.

  • Eating and drinking is permitted in designated areas only.

  • Effective Jan. 1, 2010, children ages 9 and under must have adult supervision at all times. Supervising adults must keep children ages 4 and under within arm’s reach; there must be at least one adult for each two children in this age group. Children ages 5 through 7 must be within sight of their attending adult at all times. Children ages 8 and 9 must have an adult nearby at all times. For children ages 5 through 9, there must be one adult for every five children. Children ages 10 years and over may enter the facility without an adult supervisor.

  • Youth ages 12 - 15 years are permitted in the fitness area if directly spotted by an adult or if they have passed the Junior Fitness Card Program (see Teen Fitness Program Section). Youth under the age of 12 years are not permitted in the fitness area or on the jogging track except during scheduled Family Track time. During Family Track time children must be directly supervised by an adult.

  • Changes in recreation schedules may occur without notice. Staff will post changes in the schedule with as much advance notice as possible. Current pool, aerobics and open gym schedules are available at the Front Desk.

  • Dublin Recreation Services is not responsible for lost or stolen articles. It is strongly recommended that you lock your possessions in a locker during your visit to the DCRC.

  • Lockers are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Locks may not be left on lockers overnight. Locks which are left overnight will be removed by staff.

  • All participants must observe the rules and regulations relating to the safety and operation of the facilities. Any passholder who fails to comply with the rules and regulations of the DCRC will be subject to the following penalties:
    • One week’s suspension from use of the facilities upon the first incident;
    • Thirty days suspension from use of the facilities upon the second incident;
