Now about those masks...
From our friends at Newaygo Fitness Club: After almost 6 months of being closed, we are happy to tell you that we will be opening tomorrow September 9th! We will be staffed Monday-Thursday 8am-8pm, Friday 8am-5pm, and Saturday from 10am-3pm. 24/7 access will be available to all of our members under the FULL ACCESS PACKAGE. We are very excited to open our doors and continue our mission to transform lives by inspiring and supporting lifelong fitness and personal well-being through 24/7 club access, state-of-the-art equipment, expert training, group fitness classes, and a welcoming community that empowers our members to reach beyond their expectations. However, because Covid-19 is still here, we will need to take more precautions to keep our club safe and healthy. We ask that you follow the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines while we take on this new challenge together. The CDC states, based on currently available information and clinical expertise, older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions might be at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19. If you are at risk, please protect yourself. If you are sick in any way, please stay home. We will monitor each person that comes into the gym, and it is our discretion on whether you will be fit to utilize the facility. We also ask that all of our members clean each piece of equipment after each use with the many sanitation bottles we will have placed around the gym. Please clean anything that you touch when you are finished, barbells, dumbbells, medicine balls, cardio equipment, mats, weights, heavy bag, jump rope, squat rack, everything. We will do our part and thoroughly sanitize the gym before and after each day. Please keep 6ft apart from each other. We will have a few treadmills taped off and some equipment staggered so that we are able to follow this guideline. On the subject of face coverings - the CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based transmission. We have situated our club so that each person will be able to keep a distance of 6ft or more while working out. However, the latest Governor’s order requires masks to be worn inside at all times even while working out. If you can medically tolerate a mask while working out, please wear one and have one on you at all times. We will have masks available at the front desk. We will have the guidelines posted at the club and will update with any new information that the CDC puts forth. Lastly, I want to personally thank everyone that supported us during this pandemic. Our fitness family is stronger than ever before, and we plan on continuing to build that strength. Lucas Gross High School Football Coming Back For Fall; 6 game schedule to begin September 18
From our friends at MHSAA: EAST LANSING, Mich. – Sept. 3 – The Fall 2020 football season has been reinstated today by the Representative Council of the Michigan High School Athletic Association after Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s Executive Order 176 lifted restrictions that previously did not allow the sport to be played. Whitmer’s executive order also allows for an immediate start of competition boys soccer; Lower Peninsula girls swimming & diving and girls volleyball on Wednesday (Sept. 9) for schools located in Regions 1-5 and 7 based on the MI Safe Start Plan. It also sets spectator limits of two per participant for outdoor and indoor events in Phase 4 of the MI Safe Start Plan. Statewide football, and competition in those regions for volleyball, soccer and swimming & diving, had been restricted as part of EO 160, which ordered gyms and pools to remain closed and required social distancing in competition to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in areas under Phase 4 of the Safe Start plan. Schools in Regions 6 and 8 have been able to play volleyball, soccer and swim because those regions have been under fewer restrictions while in Phase 5 of the reopening process. The MHSAA’s Council had authorized on Aug. 20 the start of competition in volleyball, soccer and swim statewide, pending the authorization of that activity in the specific regions by Whitmer’s office. The Council also on Aug 14. postponed the Fall 2020 football season to Spring 2021, but voted today to allow for a shortened season this fall. Schools are not required to play any of those sports this fall, and may postpone until the spring. However, the MHSAA will conduct its postseason events in those four sports only for the Fall 2020 season. “We are thankful for the opportunity for kids to get back on the field in all fall sports, and we appreciate Governor Whitmer providing that opportunity with Executive Order 176 ,” MHSAA Executive Director Mark Uyl said. “We share the Governor’s priorities of putting health and safety first, and the COVID-19 guidance and protocols designed by the MHSAA at her request have led to the safe starts in all sports across the state. “Thirty three other states are currently participating in all fall sports, and the MHSAA and its member schools are committed to doing this as safely as possible. We are ready to again provide those experiences to students and communities that have hoped for a return of some normalcy. Given the challenges of online education in many school districts across the state, providing sports and a daily routine may be more important than ever in motivating students and providing a safe outlet for physical activity, competition and socialization.” Football teams previously had been allowed to practice in helmets only during the traditional first week of practice, which began Aug. 10, and then during Council-approved offseason “contact” days beginning Aug. 24. With the reinstatement of this fall’s season, football teams must cease all activity until Tuesday, Sept. 8, then practice two days in helmets and shoulder pads before adding full pads Sept. 10. They may begin regular-season games Sept. 18, and will play six games beginning with their originally-scheduled Week 4 contests. All football teams in 11 and 8-player football will qualify for the playoffs during this fall’s shortened season, and then advance through their usual postseason progression with 8-Player Finals the weekend of Nov. 27-28 and 11-Player Finals the weekend of Dec. 4-5. All other Fall 2020 tournaments will be conducted as previously scheduled. |
