Per Governor Holcomb’s announcement on Wednesday, Sept. 23, the State of Indiana moved into Stage 5 of the Back on Track Indiana Plan Saturday. Based on the Governor’s guidelines and member feedback gathered through multiple surveys, the Monon Community Center (MCC) has begun its next phase of reopening.
Safety remains Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation’s (CCPR) top priority. The MCC’s Stage 5 reopening will take place in phases in order to keep members, guests and staff safe. Masks are still required when entering and exiting the facility and will be worn by staff. Physical distancing guidelines and enhanced cleaning measures will remain in place.
Monthly and annual memberships are available for purchase online and at the MCC starting at $44 per month. Day passes are available for purchase in-person at the MCC.
