Safeguarding your valuables
The RA encourages members to take precautions with their valuables while at the RA. If you choose to leave your valuables in your car, ensure they are out of sight. You should also make sure your car is locked at all times. There are day-use lockers in all locker rooms and wallet lockers in LifeFIT Centre, the East and West lobbies at the RA Centre. These wallet lockers are available for your use free of charge (see staff for a token). The Association is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged items.
Locker Use
​Members have daily access to lockers while participating in an activity at the RA Centre. These day-use lockers must be emptied by close each night*.  We encourage you to take advantage of our Locker Rental Service.  Please stop by the Member Service Desk on your next visit and enquire about renting a locker.

* Please be advised that we conduct regular and routine checks of each locker room.  Without notice all unauthorized overnight use of a locker will result in the cutting of locks and removal of contents and will be subject to a flat rental fee of $25, payable upon pick-up of personal items from the Member Service Desk.  Confiscated items will be available for a period of 60 days, after which they will be donated to a local charity.  This will ensure that lockers are available for members wishing to take advantage of the rental service and for “Day-Use”.
Proximity Cards
Each proximity card is assigned to an individual person for her/his exclusive use. You are personally responsible for the use of your card.  Never lend your proximity card or allow unauthorized persons to enter an area for which they don’t have a card. Ask them to contact or direct them to the RA’s East Member Services Desk.  Lost, stolen or damaged proximity cards must be reported to the RA’s East Member Services Desk. Replacement for lost or stolen cards cost $15. The RA reserves the right to add/alter any of the above conditions from time to time as required.
