Dear Courtsiders,
First and foremost, I hope you
and your families are Safe & Healthy! Even though swimming is often
an individual sport, at Courtside, we are definitely a community and extended
family!! I am home right now, like I am sure all of you are, wishing we
were poolside and lap swimming with our friends at the club.
I just wanted to shoot you a
brief update in regards to Aquatics here at Courtside;
1)
The Bay Club Company wants to get you back in the pool as soon
as possible! Plans are being worked on every day to get our doors opened
as quickly as we can.
2)
USA Swimming – USA Swimming is mandating the cancellation of all
its sanctioned events across the U.S. through April 30, 2020. This will
continuously be reassessed based on the health and governmental authorities’
information. Visit www.usaswimming.org
for more information.
3)
Swimming for kids – since many of the schools will now be shut
down for the remainder of the school year, we know you want to keep your kids
active, safe and engaged. We are working on plans to have half day Swim
Camps, once we are allowed to. Please feel free to shoot me any ideas or
suggestions – they would be appreciated!
4)
US Masters – US Masters has canceled all educational courses and
swim meets through April 30, 2020. Visit www.usms.org
for more information.
Below is a correspondence
sent out to the Membership last night. If you did not receive it, please
check your spam folder. If you still did not receive the email, please log on
to your Bay Club Connect account and under “profile” double check that your
email is up to date. If you need any assistance, please reach out to me and I
am happy to help you. J
I certainly have appreciated
all your support over recent months, the past year and a half! During
these challenging times, it is when I am most proud to be a part of this
fabulous club. Seeing the way everyone supports each other is really what
brings me the most amount of joy and happiness. Any Membership Dues you
can continue to contribute
to help keep
my fellow Associates compensated would be a blessing to our Courtside team.
If you have any questions at
all, please do not hesitate to ask! I’m looking forward to a very fun
summer with all of you.

Dear Bay Club Members,
In these very uncertain times, we are taking one day at
a time as we try to make the best decisions for our Members,
Associates, and their families. Starting tomorrow, please expect a
Daily Bulletin that will provide fitness, sports, family, and
hospitality-themed tips to help you survive the challenging times ahead
and stay connected to our Bay Club community. Some of our top
professionals will be providing fitness classes, stay-at-home kids
projects and lessons, sports drills for the driveway or cul-de-sac, and
nutritious recipes for the family. We will do our best to help everyone
through this unprecedented time.
Our goal is to continue employment and pay our
Associates their wages and health insurance during the time that
services are suspended at our clubs. We are attempting to maintain a
certain amount of revenue coming in from our loyal membership base to
cover a fraction of the pay for our front-line Associates—housekeeping,
service providers, front desk staff, and managers—to support their
families. After considering quite a few options, we would like to
propose the following three:
- Continue
to pay full dues during the time that club services are suspended
- Pay 50%
of your monthly dues while club services are suspended
- Pay $0
dues while club services are suspended
If you would like to continue to pay full dues during
this time, you do not need to do anything. Billing will continue at the
normal monthly cadence. If you would like to pay 50% or pay $0 dues,
please contact your Bay Club team at SanJos...@bayclubs.com
and they will make the necessary adjustment effective March 16, 2020.
We intend to open our clubs and welcome our Members back
as soon as it is safe and appropriate to do so. We hope that our
Members will choose to stay with us, so that we may continue to build
our vibrant Bay Club community, as we have for the last 40 plus years.
Lastly, we want to say thank you. We are incredibly
grateful for your support, as well as your calls and emails checking on
our Associates. Your loyalty and dedication to our community are
tremendously appreciated. We are going to come out of this together.
Yours in Good Health,
