Covid 19 Precautions and Face to Face Play

This special Board meeting was called at the request of the Club owners regarding the troubling spread of the new Omicron variant of the Covid 19 virus. They are recommending a temporary suspension of play at the center in order to provide time for all players to receive booster vaccinations.

It was moved and seconded that the Unit close the center, and suspend all play for a period of two weeks (January 3 – 16, 2022). An amendment was moved and seconded to require that upon the return to F2F play at the center, that all players must be fully vaccinated, and show proof of receiving a booster vaccine shot, if eligible to receive a booster shot, in order to be allowed to enter the facility.  The amendment and the original motion were both passed unanimously.

Tabled for the next meeting was a proposal from Paul Davis regarding use of the center.

The next meeting will be the regularly scheduled meeting on January 12 at 4 PM.

The meeting was adjourned at 4:37 PM
