Hello all, Since we re-opened there are some changes to be aware of at Natural High Fitness as we                                                        navigate operations after our Covid-19 shut-down.

The Okotoks Recreation Centre re-opened July 7, 2020. Hours of operation and services are modified from prior to the shutdown. Details on schedules, programs and services at the Okotoks Recreation Centre, will be posted at www.activeokotoks.ca as they come available.

Please be patient as the team works through many details and planning measures to ensure the safety of all clients and staff.
Natural High Fitness re-opened on June 22.

Due to our partnership with the Town of Okotoks and our shared facilities, there are some changes to be aware of. There are also some changes to our regular hours, programs and operations to keep our staff and participants safe. It is important to note that the Recreation Centre will look and feel very different than it was before.

Hours of operation for August will be:
Monday to Friday 5:30am-8pm
Saturday 7am-6pm
Sundays 8am-4pm
We will be closed, Monday Sept 7

-Locker rooms and wallet lock boxes will not be available until possibly mid-July after which you’ll notice some traffic flow changes in the locker rooms to allow for better social distancing. Please leave valuables at home or in your car, and come to the gym changed and ready to workout. We do have washroom facilities of course, but our goal will be to limit your time in the Rec Centre, so please come ready to workout. We would appreciate you not spending time in and around the Rec Centre until the facility is back up and running on July 7.
