OPENING UPDATE 

May 23, 2020

The club is now open!

The province has allowed boat clubs to reopen for recreational boating, and GRCA has opened Guelph Lake for limited day use including boating as of Saturday, May 23.

Please remember that access and use of the club is at your own risk, and we are obliged to comply with all provincial regulations.

Physical distancing measures are still in place. Please observe the following while at the club:

1. Maintain a distance of 2 metres from anyone not a member of your household;
2. Park at least 2 metres away from other vehicles;
3. Bring sanitizer, wipes, masks, and gloves as needed;
4. Sanitize the gate lock and any communal items touched both before and after use;
5. Pack out any garbage; and,
6. Please sanitize hands and wipe all contact surfaces both before and after using the port-a-potties.

As at this time, we are unable to use the club house or the co-op shed. Benches and picnic tables may be used, so long as the 2 metre distance limit is respected with non-members of your household. The group gathering limit is 5 people.

The above restrictions are by no means a complete list, merely the highlights. Please refer to the Government of Ontario website for a complete list. At all times there is an expectation that common sense will be used, and respect for each other's health and safety will be given.

Please assume that the person before you has not sanitized the gate lock nor any other surface at the club.

All active members should have received the 2020 gate codes with their membership confirmation email.

Please ensure your membership is up-to-date in order to receive updates and have access.  Renew memberships here
