Annual Club Maintenance Shutdown

Friday, August 21 – Sunday, August 23

To provide our members with the best possible experience, the Club will be closed for our Annual Cleaning & Maintenance Shutdown from Friday, August 21 through Sunday, August 23. We will reopen on Monday, August 24.

During the shutdown, our staff and contractors will be completing several important improvement projects throughout the Club, including:

  • Partial asphalt refinishing in designated parking lot areas
  • Deep cleaning throughout the facility
  • Interior painting
  • Carpet cleaning

These annual maintenance projects help keep our Club clean, safe, and in excellent condition, ensuring a welcoming environment for all members.

Pool Closure: August 21st–31st

Please note that the pool will remain closed from Friday, August 21 through Monday, August 31 while we complete extensive maintenance and refurbishment, including:

  • Draining the pool
  • Resurfacing – which takes 7 days to cure completely
  • Thorough cleaning, reorganization and painting
  • Filling the pool, and balancing the chemicals for reopening

The pool is scheduled to reopen on Tuesday, September 1, refreshed and ready for members to enjoy.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while these important improvements are completed.

Thank you for your continued support and for being a valued member of our Athletic Club. We look forward to welcoming you back to an even cleaner, safer, and better-maintained facility.

The Sauna Isn’t a Towel Warmer or Sweaty Gear Dryer!

It may be tempting to pop the sauna door open to warm a towel or dry damp workout gear, but every time the door opens, the sauna loses heat and the members inside lose the experience they came for! Also, please understand how off-putting the sauna becomes when someone else’s sweaty, smelly workout gear is left hanging in the sauna. A little courtesy goes a long way. Thanks for helping us keep the sauna comfortable for everyone!
