STILL ON HOLD, READY TO PRESS PLAY
"Safe Start" Plan: Phase 3
Like so many of you, we've been dancing our fingers back and forth between the hold button and the play button; with some twiddling of the thumbs in between sets from the governor.
At last announcement, Edgeworks
(along with all other indoor gyms)
was placed in
Phase 3
of the
"Safe Start" re-opening plan
for Washington state. With each phase estimated to last 3 weeks, the current best case scenario has us looking toward a
mid-late June reopening
with a
50 person capacity
limit.
We're continuing to review all of our options that will help us manage and maximize member
access to the gym. Most likely this will involve an
online reservation system allowing you the opportunity to reserve your
2-hour climbing session prior to showing up at the gym. Not only will this help us manage capacity limits and cleaning between sessions, but it will also allow up to
300+ check-ins every day. A new
“check-out” process will also be introduced to further help track the number of people in the gym and let you know when check-ins are available.
In the
first 2-3 weeks of reopening, we plan to be strategic in our offerings, prioritizing member access to in-gym climbing. With that,
climbing school courses and
youth programs may be offered at limited capacity.
Summer camps will likely move to outdoor locations and
group fitness classes could remain online until we feel it's safe to reintroduce them in the gym. Times and schedules of courses, programs and classes are also likely to be adjusted.
We are also working hard to create a plan that
minimizes risk for both our members and our staff. We will be doing our best to accommodate both the
desire to climb, as well as the need to
reduce contact and exposure; more details to follow in the coming weeks.
We share this information with you knowing that we're
chasing a moving target and these plans may very well change between now and then.
Please stay connected and feel free to reach out to us with ideas, updates, concerns and/or considerations.
