We are excited about the ability to potentially reopen the Montanoso and Sierra gyms with the recently issued state guidelines. We are busy modifying our reopening plans to comply with the new guidelines and will be working on setting up the gyms next week to incorporate social distancing. We are also updating custodial agreements and staffing schedules so we may be prepared to welcome our members back. Once all of these things are in place and we determine it is safe to reopen, members will be contacted via email with our new procedures and modified operating hours. Look for an update later this month.
