Facilities, Personnel, and Operations Update
Fitness, Sports and Tennis Policy Reminder:
The Bay Club goes through great efforts to give our members a safe and enjoyable exercise experience. To accomplish this, our tennis and athletic instructors, and trainers are interviewed and extensively vetted regarding their experience, expertise, and background to allow our members to choose from a topflight instructional staff.
To maintain such standards, the Bay Club’s Membership Guidelines restrict “Formal, personal, or group instruction with regard to fitness and sports training, including tennis, by any individuals other than authorized Bay Club staff.”
We ask that all members be respectful of this policy. Violations of the policy could affect the memberships of both those offering and receiving unauthorized instruction, including the suspension or termination of memberships.
Please contact your Club if you have any questions regarding this policy. Thank you for your cooperation.
Indoor Pool Open
We appreciate your understanding with the closure of the Indoor Pool, and we are glad to let you know the Pool is now open. The heaters are functioning normally and we took this time to deep clean the pool.
Friendly Reminder: Cell Phone Usage
As a reminder, cell phone use is absolutely prohibited in the locker rooms, including the sauna, steam room and hot tub. Please do your part to respect other members using the facilities. Silent cell phone use only (no phone calls) is permitted on the fitness floor.
