Hello everyone,

After last nights meeting we have come up with a plan. We have written up some guidelines for the Rec that we are have submitted to the town of Washington to approve. Once approved we hope to reopen the Rec on June 1st for a phase 1 plan. This plan we will try out for two weeks and be adjusted as we go. We are going to reconfigure the weight room to make it safer and move some equipment into the Mosling room. To keep the staff safe a Plexiglas shield is being designed for the front desk. A sanitizer station has been ordered for the front door and donated to the Rec Center. For now with this soft opening we will not be opening the pool, hot tub or locker rooms until we get the go ahead . I am working with the YMCA and my pool people to make this a safe move forward. We will all have to get through this together. I do not want to put my staff or any members at risk. Please standby for the guidelines and schedule after the town decides to accept our guidelines. I will definitely post right away when I know we have the go ahead.

For safety reasons we will also not be hosting the Rec Run live this year. We are really hoping that everyone will please join on a virtual run we are trying to put together. This is our biggest fundraiser and I truly loved having everyone come together, even though I stress out a little bit. In a few weeks I will post information on the web and Facebook on how to do this event. Please, please, please consider this event.

If anyone has any questions on anything I check my email daily, so please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Together we can do this!!
