Day 31-Friday Sign Up Genius

Friday has become a ritual. It starts by getting to work early and knocking the weekly weight room signups. Both signups seem to be utilized regular at this point by the same patrons week in and week out. The staff scheduling has roughly 8 people out of the max 10 that was set with nearly 6 actually showing up daily.

When it comes to the student weight room hours, attendance is lower. Only 1 in every 4 students actually show up when they sign up to attend. With the max capacity never being reached and not limiting student who would potentially want to sign up, it is truly irrelevant, however it does pose a concern if the weight room slots were to fill up. Thus, I have revisited the settings on the signup genius form which now send out an email reminder 1 day prior to which ever day a student signed up to work out. The hope is that students will not forget about their assigned times, and start utilizing the slot they signed up for. Worst case, they get tired of the emails and only sign up for days they truly plan to attend! I will be sure to monitor moving forward to see how the settings change the rate of attendance.
