Coronavirus update 3-13

March 13, 2020

As we navigate the rapidly developing changes and recommendations from the CDC and Contra Costa County Health Department, we are modifying our Group Exercise class policies to limit class size to 20 participants per class.

Per the County Health Department's recommendations on social distancing, limiting the number of participants will allow for ample spacing in classes.

This will begin Saturday, March 14, 2020 until further notice.

To sign-up for classes please ask for a number upon check-in at the Front Desk.

Please check the online Group Exercise schedule and App for last minute changes to classes.  Download the Oakwood Athletic Club app Androids and iphones in the App Store

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to ensure the health and well-being of our members and staff.

As the COVID-19 community impact continues to evolve, we want to keep our community abreast of our continued efforts.  We know that the situation is continuously changing and are continuing to monitor, maintain, and take as much precaution as we can to mitigate to possibility of exposure to the virus.  

Steps to keep Oakwood and our surrounding community safe:

• Stay home if you are sick and remain at home until you feel well
• Wipe down equipment and surfaces before and after use. *Please dispose of wipes in trash cans after use.
• Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, particularly before and after working out and using equipment,
• Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer when soap and water is not available. Ensure you rub the sanitizer thoroughly between your fingers, outside of hands, and fingertips and allow to dry
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth with your unwashed hands 
• Use a barrier, such as a paper towel or tissue, to touch commonly touched surfaces, such as bathroom door handles and elevator buttons

We are cleaning surfaces throughout the day to clean and disinfect as much as possible.  Please continue to help us by wiping surfaces and equipment before and after use.
