Good afternoon everyone! A few things to update you on….
We have added new classes to the time table from September which are now available to book via GymSync. Details are on the website –www.abshotcountryclub.com/fitness-centre/class-timetable
Aqua classes are back too from September. Whilst numbers are restricted please only book 2 classes a week to help us ensure everyone has a chance to participate. We will monitor demand.
It has been great to welcome members back to the pool.The sessions have been evenly booked with good availability. Thank you everyone for adhering to the procedures, coming ‘swim ready’ , using the changes rooms quickly and only if essential. We have been admiring the array of towelling ponchos being worn !
Spin classes have resumed in the new marquee and it withstood the barrage of rain yesterday !
Court Bookings – Track & Trace. Members, if your opponent has booked the court, please register your membership number with Reception. Guests of Members please provide your name & phone number at Reception when you are paying the guest fee. Details will be stored for 21 days, then destroyed. The adult squash guest fee is currently £5.50. We must adhere to the government track and trace requirements and we thank you for your assistance.
We have had a question regarding air conditioning and fans. Currently we are unable to use the air-conditioning, our system is re-circulating so must be left off. We have the spin room, cardio room, aerobic studio and downstairs gym doors open to allow as much fresh air as possible and as such the air-con wouldn’t cope or work anyway. Under the guidelines for gyms fans are also to remain off as unless there is copious amounts of fresh air, they would circulating potentially infected air. All of our considered measures are in place to protect our members and staff.
If you are unable to attend any sessions – gym, swim, courts, classes please let us know. ‘No shows’ are increasing and whilst we are restricted in numbers it is now even more important that you manage your bookings. We don’t want to have to implement a system of fines or suspensions so are just asking that you help us.
From September we will be extending our opening hours to a 9pm close which allows additional gym, swim and court bookings.
As always please talk to us if you have any suggestions or comments and thank you all for helping bring back the happy, friendly atmosphere to the Club !
