NEW MEMBER ORIENTATION Every new member at the OAC is given an orientation to the track area. Appointments for your orientation can be made in person when joining the club, by phone, or by email. The orientation is conducted by the track supervisor and consists of a tour and a thorough explanation of the different components of the workout. This is
followed by a demonstration of cardio equipment and a selection of weight
machines. The orientation is not personal training and the machine based
program is non-specific. Members with specific goals or training concerns such as health problems should consult a Personal Trainer before attempting a program.

APPOINTMENTS for the certification and orientation can be made in person at the track desk or by phone at (613) 523-4024 ext. 239.
