Hi, Members! This is your place for updates on the what's happening while we navigate this COViD-19 situation together.
Due to the coronavirus outbreak, we need your help to keep our Clubhouse as safe as possible. The greatest risk is from close contact with other people who have coronavirus and because of that our Clubhouse is closed until we understand it is safe to do so.
We will be continuing OPEN AIR LUNCHES on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 11:30a, WEATHER PERMITTING (cancelling for rain or temps below 60 degrees. It takes place at our Garden at 1121 Rock. Bring your own lunch, mask and chair (if you have one). Social distancing will be observed. You must provide your own transportation. We ask that you not carpool or ask for rides with other members as we are still concerned about virus spread. PLEASE NOTE: Do a symptom check at least one hour before coming to the lunch. If you have a fever, chills, body aches, difficulty in breathing or shortness of breath, or loss of taste or smell, PLEASE STAY HOME.
PHASE 2A REOPENING - PLAN @ 1121 Rock will be open Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 12:30p to 4p, after the OPEN AIR LUNCHES, beginning th week of March 15th to a limited number of 12 members. You must call the PLAN @ 1121 Rock main line, 972-379-9904, by 1p the day prior in order to make your reservation. At this time, we have not resumed transportation services, but hope to shortly!
