Community Use of Track, Tennis Courts, Weight Room

The Exeter Township School District would like the track, tennis courts and weight room to be a resource for our community members.  Please read the information below.  Keep in mind that the facilities are for Exeter residents during designated times.

TRACK

We have installed a turn-style gate where community members can enter.  To enter the turn-style, you will need a card key which will activate the electronic lock. Community members can obtain a card key at the athletic office in the high school or the administration office on Perkiomen Avenue.  The cards require proof of Exeter residency ie; drivers licence and a $5.00 card fee.

Please follow a few simple rules:
 

Do not use spikes for recreational running.  Competitive runners who are training may use spikes but please use the preferred spike length of 1/16 inch, but no more than 1/4 inch. Do not run on the inner three lanes.  The inner three lanes wear out faster than all other lanes.  This will help keep our track in better shape.  Do not allow any bicycles, roller blades or skate boards on the track.  These items are very destructive to the track surface. The track can be used whenever there are no competitive events.

TENNIS COURTS

There are two sets of tennis courts available.  There are four courts at the High School next to the stadium.  These courts are unlocked and are available whenever there is no varsity practice, match or camp.  There are five new courts at the park below the Lausch Elementary School.  These are new and are locked to prevent damage by bicycles, skateboards and roller blades. 

Bicycles , skateboards and roller blades are very destructive to the court surface.  Because the court surface is expensive to repair,  we must keep the aformentioned items off of the court.  You may obtain a key to these courts by visiting the athletic office in the high school.  You will need proof of residency. Keys for the tennis courts are complimentary but replacements are $3.00.

WEIGHT ROOM

The new weight room will be open to residents during a limited time slot.  If we find that the time needs to be increased due to heavy use, we will make the adjustment. The time slot is 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM Monday through Thursday.  This weight room is a fine facility and we ask for assistance in keeping it clean, and replacing your weights to their storage space when finished working out. There is a $1.00 charge per visit. There is no charge for current students.  Everyone must sign in with the weight room supervisor. Entry to this weight room will be at the rear of the building at the door to the far left.
