To our valued members!!

Many of you probably don’t know that Caughlin Athletic Club is not located in the City of Reno but rather is situated in and licensed by Washoe County. As such we do not fall under the jurisdiction of the City leadership.

First of all, I would like to thank you for supporting our facility during these uncertain times. At this point, we plan to remain open until we are ordered to close by our County Commissioners, the Governor or Health Department. As of now, the Health Department has not supported the City Mayor’s decision to close bars, nightclubs, restaurants, and gyms. Mayor Schieve clarified that other “non-essential” businesses are not being required to close in Reno following yesterday afternoon’s press conference. We will try to keep you updated as it relates to the club as the situation progresses.

We are taking all the standard precautions and common-sense practices to prevent the spread and transmission of communicable diseases. We have increased the frequency of our cleaning and disinfecting of the equipment and facility and have paper towels and cleaning solution for your use at the club.

We are asking you for the following:
· If you have traveled outside of our area we are asking that you do not use the facility for 14 days (Traveling is different than commuting)
· Please remain home when exhibiting influenza-like illness signs or symptoms, such as fever, accompanied by muscle aches, cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, or if experiencing vomiting or diarrhea.
· Vigilantly comply with frequent hand hygiene, cough etiquette, and environmental cleaning with a focus on high touch surfaces. Hand wash frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds and avoid touching your eyes, mouth or nose.
· Please do not remove shirts (basketball players) or have skin to skin contact with equipment. Please use a towel if necessary.
· Wipe all equipment down before and after usage.

It is a good precaution to also wash your hands again after your workout and throw the workout clothes and hand towels (if you brought your own) in the wash after you get home.
