General
The Heritage Meadows Recreation Center is part of the Heritage Meadows Community, owned and operated by the Resident Homeowners. Working together, we strive to create and maintain a clean and healthful recreational environment that can be enjoyed by all Owners and Members. Our rules and regulations are founded on the expectations of respect for others, mindfulness of the nuances of a shared family friendly space, helpfulness in maintaining our beautiful environment, and expectations of reasonable behaviors.
Membership
This facility is available for use by all Heritage Meadows Homeowners and their families. In addition, we make a limited number of memberships available for neighbors in surrounding communities. We welcome these Members and their families to enjoy our facility with the expectation that they have read, understand and observe all the rules and regulations of this facility. These rules exist to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all who use the Heritage Meadows Recreation Center (HMRC). The Heritage Meadows Board reserves the right to add, amend or delete rules as necessary and to limit or revoke access for any Member who is unwilling to follow the intent of these rules.
Hours
Heritage Meadows Recreation Center is open 7 days a week from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM from the beginning of May through mid-September, depending on the weather.
