GRF is reopening, step by cautious step

THE LIBRARY IS OPEN

At the May 6 meeting of the COVID-19 Ad Hoc Committee, two motions were passed unanimously, reflecting the progress being made in the battle against the pandemic.

The committee moved to recommend to the GRF Board that it allow the Recreation Department to continue reopening its facilities under CDC, state and county guidelines.

The decision was made because the GRF Board’s final meeting of this fiscal year is in May. Its approval would allow the Recreation Department to prepare for reopening clubhouses under minimal restrictions, predicated on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan to drop the tier structure and open indoor venues June 15.

The authorities retain the final say, but the decision clears the way to begin renewing existing clubs and, once dates are confirmed, to book private events as well.

Clubs that have an email address on file received a Club Officers Renewal Form and should return those electronically, by snail mail, or by dropping them off at the Recreation Office as soon as possible.

If your club did not receive it, contact the Recreation Office. If your club does not intend to continue meeting, notify Recreation in writing of the decision to disband. Once the renewal form is received, the club president will be contacted for an appointment.

Due to reconfiguration of some locations, not all clubs will be able to resume
