Minors do not have to be supervised to use the Health Club. However, the sign-in sheet at the Health Club acts as a Waiver, and minors cannot waive their rights. Therefore, if you want your minor to use the Health Club unsupervised, you will need to sign a waiver on behalf of your minor before the minor can use the Health Club unsupervised the first time. The waiver is not date specific, so we will keep it on file for future visits. The waivers are available at the Health Club.

NEW HEALTH CLUB HOURS and PERSONNEL

You may also have noticed a change in personnel. Both Marjorie and Gina have moved away from San Diego. Jim is still working full time hours. We have hired Gene Cisneros, Herb Zapata, and Lisa Beebe to work part time hours – for more flexibility. Please introduce yourself to our new Attendants.

COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION FUNDAMENTALS

To offer a better conceptual understanding of how associations function and the roles of residents and leaders, we hope the following help:

• Association owners choose where to live and accept a contractual responsibility to abide by established policies.
• Association leaders have a legal and ethical obligation to adhere to the association’s governing documents and abide by all applicable laws.
• Association leaders seek an effective balance between the preferences of individual residents and the collective rights of owners.
• Association leaders and residents should be reasonable, flexible, and open to the possibility – and benefits – of compromise.
