The news many of you have been waiting for is here. With recent changes announced by the State of Oregon we can open the fitness center and use of district facilities to the community. Since it has been over a year since the fitness center has been open any person wishing to use the fitness center must complete and submit the liability waiver. The waiver can be found on the district website, click the menu and scroll down. You can either submit this from electronically and email back to rsmith@echosd5.org or you can drop by the school during summer hours (Monday - Thursday 9:00 am - 12:00 pm) Some things to remember about using the Echo Fitness Center: You must be an Echo resident or have children who attend Echo. No one under the age of 18 without adult supervision ever. If you give your code to other people your code will be revoked. Only people with approved liability waivers may use the fitness center. Remember to wipe down and clean all items after use. Please help us keep this facility in top notch shape and a free resource to our community. Echo facilities are also now available (gyms & meeting space) for reservation. Facility use is open to both Echo and non Echo groups and individuals. FEES MAY APPLY! Please use the Community Calendar/Facility Use Account link under the menu tab to submit a request for use. For additional questions please email the above address or contact Echo School District @ 541-376-8436. Thank You
