2020 Club Rules Updated June 21, 2020

Use of Wayland Swim and Tennis Club is prohibited by any member or staff who has COVID-19, any member or staff who is part of a household of someone with COVID-19 or any member or staff who has been in close contact with someone who has COVID-19 as deemed by the Board of Health. If this is applicable to your family, please reach out to the Executive Director regarding your re-entry to the facilities. Use of Wayland Swim and Tennis Club outside of booked time or staffed hours is strictly prohibited.

These guidelines must be followed for the safety of our members, our staff, and our community at large. Failure to follow these guidelines by any family or individual will result in action from the Executive Director and the Board of Directors. Waivers • •

Waivers must be signed by all members to use the club this season. Please go to WSTC Covid-19 Info for more information.

Family and Age Restrictions The paramount focus of our Executive Director and Staff is to ensure the safety of our members. Therefore, in order to reduce potential distractions from this responsibility, this summer the Board has found it necessary to increase the age limit to 16 to be at the club without an adult/caregiver/older sibling also present. •

"Families” refers to people living in the same household.

•

•

Families must have at least one household member over the age of 16 present to be at the club to enforce social distancing guidelines. Babysitters and Nannies are allowed, but must sign the waiver (please contact the Business Manager for this process.)

Guests • •

NO guests are allowed at the club. The Board's priority is to ensure all members have access to the club. This also reduces the liability for our member-owned club.
