| | | February 11th, 2022 February 16th Mask Update Contra Costa County has announced that they will lift the indoor mask mandate beginning Wednesday, February 16, 2022! This includes indoor businesses such as gyms. With the COVID-19 vaccine and booster being strongly recommended to further our defenses, ClubSport will continue to require proof of COVID-19 vaccination for members 5 and older. Full COVID-19 vaccination is two weeks after your 2nd dose for Pfizer or Moderna or one week after a single dose of Johnson and Johnson. ClubSport and our members have worked diligently to keep the Club safe, and we want to be cautious as we emerge from the Omicron wave. We want to pursue a prudent transitional process as we adjust our policies, looking forward to the day when we can welcome all members back to the Club, regardless of vaccination status. We will continue to send updates as we take a phased approach to returning to our typical operations. - Masks will be optional for members beginning Wednesday, February 16, 2022
- Proof of Vaccination is required for members 5 and older to use the Club, including Childcare
- Children 4 years and younger may use the general facility and Childcare
- Children 2-4 years old must wear masks at all times while indoors
- Childcare remains a mask required environment for all ages
We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation as we continue to carve a path forward for our members. Please email [email protected] should you wish to make any changes to your membership. | | | December 28, 2021 December 29th Mask Update Today, Contra Costa County issued an update to the Indoor Masking Order. The order goes into effect December 29th, 2021 and requires all people in Contra Costa, regardless of vaccination status, to mask in public indoor settings. Contra Costa County, and much of the Bay Area, have kept the indoor mask mandate in place through the fall and it is currently in effect. Previously, as a fully vaccinated facility, we were able to allow masks to be optional indoors. The Contra Costa County Order issued to start Wednesday, December 29th, is requiring masks to be worn in all public settings, regardless of vaccine status with no exceptions. Beginning tomorrow, December 29th, 2021, masks will be required in all indoor areas of the Club. This includes on the fitness floor, studio classes, the basketball courts, and in the general locker room area. Masks are not recommended in the showers, steam, sauna, hot tub, or pool. Members must continue to show proof of vaccination to use the Club for all members to access the general facility. Outdoor equipment, depending on weather, is still available. We understand the frustration and challenges that come with wearing a mask while exercising. Please understand that by staff enforcing this policy, we are doing so per the health order and for the health and safety of our members and staff. Please be respectful if you are asked to ensure your mask covers your nose and mouth. | | | | December 15, 2021 December 15th Mask UpdateMasks NOT required indoors per Contra Costa County. We have been notified by the Contra Costa Health Officer that the updated California Department of Public Health guidance only applies to those local health jurisdictions that do not already have an existing indoor masking order. As of now, local health orders continue to apply. California re-imposed the indoor mask mandate statewide. Contra Costa County, and much of the Bay Area, have kept the indoor mask mandate in place through the Fall and it is currently in effect. However, in November, Contra Costa County allowed indoor masks to be optional for some indoor settings that were fully vaccinated, including gyms. Members, 5 years and older, must continue to show proof of vaccination to use the general facility. We will send updates should this change. |
October 22, 2021 November Mask Update Contra Costa County has announced that certain Indoor settings, where everyone is fully vaccinated, may lift masking requirements beginning November 1, 2021. This includes gyms and fitness facilities! Beginning, Monday, November 1, 2021 masks will be optional at ClubSport, as our membership and staff are fully vaccinated. Due to the update in the county guidelines and in allowing masks to be optional at ClubSport, please review the operational changes for November 1st - Members will continue to be required to show proof of vaccination to utilize the Club.
- Members that have not submitted proof or do not have proof upon check-in will not be granted access to the Club.
- We are unable to make any medical or religious accommodations for unvaccinated members at this time to follow the county guidance of a fully vaccinated facility.
- Youth members, under 12, will not be able to use the general facility. Childcare will remain open and youth will have access to the pool. To follow the county guidance of fully vaccinated, this includes those not yet eligible.
- Children under the age of 12 will not be permitted in any main areas of the club including the lobby. Childcare parents, when dropping off and picking up, please enter and exit through the outside entrance (glass double doors).
- KidFit will not be in session after today but we will be back again in early 2022 with another exciting new KidFit session.
- Members are asked to self-check for COVID-19 symptoms prior to coming to the Club and to not come if they are not feeling well or if they have had contact with someone who has tested positive for covid-19 in the last 14 days.
We continue to encourage wearing masks to the extent possible with your workout. General indoor-masking requirements remain in effect in other businesses until the criteria outlined by the county are met. This is projected to be late December, early January. Once the general indoor masking is lifted we hope guidelines will allow youth general access to the facility. We will continue to send updates as mandates and guidelines change. Please contact Membership should you wish to make any changes to your membership. |

| | | September 15, 2021 Vaccine Mandate Contra Costa County has announced a new health order, effective September 22, our club must require our patrons 12 years old and older must show proof they are fully COVID-19 vaccinated (two weeks after their second vaccine dose or two weeks after the one dose of J&J COVID-19 vaccine) in order to use the club. In an effort to create the safest environment possible for our members and staff, ClubSport will require members, ages 12 and older, to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to utilize the Club. This can be one-time, should you authorize ClubSport to store the verification for check-in purposes, or you can show proof of vaccination at every check-in. Should you authorize ClubSport to store the verification for check-in purposes you may begin submitting proof on Wednesday, September 15th, 2021. You can show proof at Activities at the front desk or at the membership offices. Once the verification process is complete we will delete the uploaded file. You will be asked to complete a one-time authorization form to allow us to store the verification for subsequent Club use. COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements: Beginning September 22nd, 2021, members, 12 and older, must show proof of vaccination to utilize the Club. This can be one-time, should you authorize ClubSport to store the verification for check-in purposes or you can show proof of vaccination at every check-in. Proof will be accepted in one of the following forms: - Physical vaccination card
- Photo of vaccination card
- Digital vaccination card via CA SMART Health Card
Members are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after their second COVID-19 vaccine dose, or two weeks after the one dose of J&J COVID-19 vaccine. ClubSport San Ramon reserves the right to request an additional vaccine verification in the form of the California State digital Covid-19 vaccine record to determine validity. More information on this digital vaccine record can be found at https://myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov/. Proof of your vaccination status will be recorded for future Club visits: - Provided proof of COVID-19 vaccination is for verification purposes only. We will not make or store a copy of your vaccination card.
- When uploading your proof, the card will be reviewed by us for verification purposes but will be deleted after the process is complete.
Members that do not wish for ClubSport to store such verification WILL BE REQUIRED to show their proof of vaccination at each check-in. ClubSport will work with members who require medical or religious accommodations. Please contact the Club as soon as possible. Masks: Masks continue to be mandated by Contra Costa County, regardless of vaccination status. Masks must be worn to cover the nose and mouth throughout the indoor facilities. Masks are not recommended in the indoor hot tub or steam room. Please be respectful of the staff and your fellow member by adhering to this guidance.
Thank you for your commitment to the health and safety of ClubSport and the community at large. |

August 3, 2021 August Mask Mandate Update Dear ClubSport Members, We are aware that Contra Costa County has issued updated mask requirements for indoors. The county is now asking that all people, regardless of vaccination status, wear masks while in indoor public settings. We will be asking that all members wear masks throughout the facility, regardless of vaccination status. However, we will allow vaccinated members to take down their mask as needed on a piece of cardio equipment should they need to, as we understand intense cardio is inhibitive in a mask and we have continued to distance our cardio floor. We will be working to move some classes outdoors where we can, as well as have some outdoor workout spaces. We appreciate your understanding as we work together to continue navigating these changes. |

Dear ClubSport Members,
As we navigate through an unprecedented year we continue to evaluate our reopening guidance, state and county mandates, and the vaccine availability. Our top priority is the health and safety of our members and staff.
We have been thrilled to hear from members that are on their way to being fully vaccinated and are ready to get back into the Club! We encourage anyone currently eligible to receive the vaccine to request an appointment today to help the community continue on the path to reopening safely.
Contra Costa County has announced movement into the Orange Tier, which allows for 25% indoor capacity for gyms. While this is a needed move forward for our community on a whole, we are still looking to balance this with vaccine availability for both members and staff. The county has now opened vaccine appointments to the general public, which is giving staff the ability to be vaccinated this month. We will continue to phase in aspects of the facility as this happens and send updates accordingly.
Should the state and county continue to progress forward at the current pace we are hopeful to have the majority of the Club open by May 1st. Although reservations may still be required, May will be free for all members to compensate for closing mid-March 2020! We hope to have all services available by mid-May and would look to resume dues and billing on June 1st. This is contingent on continual progress forward and movement into the Yellow Tier of operations, which is 50% indoor capacity.
This timeline is certainly an estimate and may change based on the tier assignments, but we wanted to let members know of ClubSport’s current path to reopening the club.
Please stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
We look forward to seeing you and your families again soon!
Nick Barker
General Manager
| An Update from ClubSport San Ramon |
|
February 12, 2021 Dear ClubSport Member, As the stay-at-home orders for Contra Costa County were recently lifted, we understand you may have questions on how this change effects ClubSport’s operations. We were happy to be deemed by the State and County as an essential business that can operate outdoors under the more restrictive stay-at-home order. However, as Contra Costa County remains in the purple tier, according to the California Reopening Blueprint, we remain at outdoor operations only. We anticipate Contra Costa County moving into the red tier of operations in the coming weeks. According to the California Reopening Blueprint, this allows gyms to be open at 10% indoor capacity, with limited services available. Given these restrictions, we have made the decision to continue with only outdoor operations until the county progresses to tiers with less limitations. These restrictions were in place when we opened this past October indoors. We found that we had little usage as the facility was so limited in what we could offer. We are continually assessing regulations and changes to guidance, coupled with the status of the vaccination process. As this process unfolds, we will continue to update members on a timeline to reopen indoors. Our focus continues to be the health and safety of our members and staff. We are optimistic that as the vaccine becomes more widely available and administered, that members and staff will feel safe to return to indoor operations at ClubSport. Reminders regarding your membership and dues: - We continue to pause all memberships and will not resume billing until further notice
- All annual membership have been paused and the duration of the annual will not resume until the Club resumes dues.
- Memberships may be placed on hold at no charge until further notice.
- As a reminder, our Business Office hours are very limited due limited operations.
We are continuing to utilize our outdoor areas for classes and workout space for the foreseeable future. This includes the lap pool, group classes and personal outdoor workout spaces. These options are by reservation only and can be booked through the member login. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions regarding operations or need assistance logging in. Updated operations can be found at ClubSportSR.com As the days get longer and warmer, we look to expand our outdoor operations and will continue to send updates as things change. Thank you again for your patience and support over the past year. We understand that the ongoing stress, uncertainty, and challenges of COVID-19 effect everyone and we hope to get you back to your ClubSport routine soon! Nick Barker Club Manager |
