Reopening – July 6th

Date Updated: October 9th

Over the past several weeks, the club’s leadership team has been working tirelessly on a comprehensive reopening strategy. This plan builds upon Beverly Athletic Club’s high standards of health, safety, and cleanliness – and takes them to the highest level.   As a member of the club you are also a key player in this detailed plan.

We realize this is an adjustment for everyone.  We ask first and foremost, be kind, be considerate, and be mindful of others.  We want the club to be a sanctuary for your well-being.   

MASKS ARE REQUIRED TO ENTER THE BUILDING AND DURING YOUR WORKOUT


CLEANLINESS


ENHANCED CLEANING & DISINFECTION

  • In addition to existing continuous cleaning protocols, we will perform a rigorous deep-cleaning and disinfecting process overnight.   Designated areas of the club will be sectioned off during the day to help facilitate the deep cleaning.

Members will be asked to use hand sanitizer when entering the club and frequently throughout their visit.
