However, guests may bring or send only three visitors at any one time. Visitors must be 18 years of age or older.  We reserve the right to discontinue guest privileges, in whole or in part, for the general benefit of the Center.

You should consult with your physician before using our services and facilities. You understand and acknowledge that we have no expertise in diagnosing, examining or treating any medical condition.

It is your responsibility to consult with your physician to determine if any of these medical conditions exists and, if so, whether such condition poses a direct threat to the health or safety of yourself or others. The Center reserves the right, however, to make the final determination in this regard.
