GOAL:  Reinforce the responsibility we all share in following COVID-19 protocols

In addition to the standard items that we ask all members to complete prior to receiving their membership badges (payment of annual fees, signing the waiver), members will also be required to sign an acknowledgment regarding COVID-19 protocols. 
 
Every adult member (18 years and over) will be required to sign this form, which is now available electronically in the Members’ section of the website, on the Member Central Page, adjacent to the Club waiver.  

Parents signing on behalf of their children are asked to ensure, where possible, that their children are aware of the Code and their responsibilities. 

Note in particular the requirement in the Acknowledgement of all members to download the OPN APP for health screening and contact tracing purposes.  

Members and their guests are asked to respect the safety and well-being of all members, guests and employees by adhering to all protocols announced by the Club and public authorities from time to time.  These include the following, among others:

• Protocols regarding physical distancing, face coverings and hand hygiene
• Protocols regarding dining, locker and other areas within Club lodges
• Protocols regarding travel and isolation requirements
• Use the Club’s OPN app for health screening and contact tracing
• Use the COVID Alert app for your mobile device, which is available at https://covid-19.ontario.ca/covidalert
• Stay at home if you feel unwell or are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19, are looking after someone with COVID-19 symptoms or have be requested to self-isolate by a doctor, health care provider or public health unit
• Advise the General Manager or Assistant General Manager (in confidence), if you or anyone in your household tests positive for COVID-19

Section 5 of the Club’s general Code of Conduct – Sanctions and Procedures for Breaches of Code of Conduct  – outlines the procedures that will be followed in the event a member does not follow the Club’s COVID protocols.  

Please refrain from coming to Craigleith Ski Club

• If you have traveled outside of Canada; 
• If you are experiencing, or have been in contact with anyone experiencing COVID-19 symptoms 

While at the Club

• Practice safe physical distancing of at least 2 meters (6ft);
• Wear a face covering while indoors, in the lift lines and on the chairlift;
• Wash your hands and use hand sanitizer; 
• Wash your personal outdoor items frequently;  
• Use contactless payment options; 
• Follow all directional and safety signage.

Grey Bruce Public Health authorities require that all members, guests, employees and volunteers are required to complete a health screening prior to arrival at the Club. 

Therefore, the Club is now in the process of implementing a new software system developed by OPN, a leading company offering a mobile solution with both in-app health assessments and contact tracing.  We expect this new software system including an APP will be available in early December. 

How It Will Work:

• Members will be required to download the OPN App on their mobile device – but not yet!  Members will be advised via email when it’s time to download, and will be provided with full instructions on set up – target time is the first week of December – stay tuned!
• Once underway, members will be required to complete their health screening prior to each day of arrival at the Club
• Parents will be able to complete their children’s health screening on their device
• Members will receive a reminder via “push notification” if the health screening has not been completed
• Upon arrival at the Club, members will scan their membership badge, equipped with an OPN sticker, on a tablet located at entry doors throughout all buildings, to check in, confirming their presence at the Club for contact tracing purposes
• Members will be encouraged to scan their badge regularly throughout their day at the Club, as they enter and exit buildings – the more times scanned, the more information that will be available to assist with contact tracing if required.  So, scan away – the more, the better!
• Additional information will be available soon, including at the Town Hall.

GOAL:  Improved safety and reduced risk of transmission

The Club requires that everyone wear a face covering to help reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19 and to protect everyone, especially in circumstances when physical distancing is challenging.

The Club’s policy regarding face coverings is based on the provincial government and Grey Bruce Public Health requirements: 

• “Face covering” means a medical mask or a non-medical mask or other item used to cover the face such as a bandana, a scarf or a cloth that covers the mouth, nose and chin ensuring a barrier that limits the transmission of infectious respiratory droplets.
• Face coverings are mandatory while inside all Club buildings – throughout all lodges, locker rooms, locker buildings, administrative areas, cafeteria serving areas, ski patrol and race crew areas and Squire John’s.
• Face coverings are mandatory in lift lines, while loading the lifts and while riding the lifts.
• The only exception to the policy that will be generally relevant is that face coverings can be removed for eating or drinking provided the person is seated in one of the Club’s designated dining areas.  As soon as a person stands or leaves the table for any reason, a face covering must be worn. 
• Public health officials have advised us that the Club can choose a strict approach to requiring masks at the Club.  Accordingly, those who are unable or unwilling to wear a mask will be asked to stay away from the Club to protect your and others health and safety during the COVID-19 global pandemic.  Management and staff will be actively enforcing this and other policies.
• The Club’s Code of Conduct has been updated to address COVID-19 protocols.  Section 5 outlines the procedures that will be followed in the event a member does not follow the Code of Conduct including the requirement to wear a face covering as noted above.
• Masks are available for sale at the front desk, and disposable masks will be available for emergency use.

Members who feel unwell and/or are experience symptoms of COVID-19  https://www.ontario.ca/page/covid-19-stop-spread  should leave the Club immediately.  Take the on line self-assessment, contact Telehealth or contact a health care provider for advice on next steps. 

In the event a child develops COVID-19 symptoms during an Alpine Program, the child should inform his/her coach or instructor, who will then contact the Alpine Programs Administrative staff.  The parents of the affected child will be contacted with arrangements made for pick up, preferably outside, as soon as possible.  A designated, isolated area is available when parent/child pick up outside is not feasible.  Take the on line self-assessment, contact Telehealth or contact a health care provider for advice on next steps. 
 
Staff members or volunteers who develop COVID-19 symptoms while at the Club must immediately advise his/her supervisor, then leave the premises as soon as possible.  Follow up with the supervisor as required (i.e. symptoms or worsen, results of a COVID-19 test, any quarantine requirements). Take the on line self-assessment, contact Telehealth or contact a health care provider for advice on next steps. 


Members, employees or volunteers can only return to the Club and any programs with:

UPDATE - AS of Friday February 19th, 2021, the club has suspended indoor dining therefore the table reservation system will not be offered until indoor food service resumes.  

GOAL:  Provide members with an identified seat, section and time when in the lodges. Reduce flow and improve contact tracing if needed.

The Club is implementing a new table reservation software system in all three lodges, to manage lodge capacity. 

Details are as follows:

• Members will make reservations via the Craigleith APP or website
• Reservations are required daily for Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, Christmas holidays, Family Day Monday and March Break
• Reservations for dining area tables are required prior to coming into any of the lodges for food and beverage or warm-up requirements
• Reservations are required all day from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. - no “drop in” seating is offered
• Reservations will be for 30 minutes maximum, with 2, 4 or 6 people per table, and start times every 15 minutes
• Members can book more than once per day, but there must be a minimum 15 minute break between bookings (no back to back bookings)
• Reservations will open every Thursday at 9:00 a.m. for the coming weekend
• For the week of Saturday December 19^th to Thursday December 24^th, we will launch the table reservations system with a “soft opening” and ask that members make reservations beginning on Tuesday, December 15^th at 9:00 a.m.
• For Christmas Holidays, Saturday December 26^th to Sunday January 3^rd, table reservations will open on Tuesday December 22^nd at 9:00 a.m.
• Members will select reservations according to availability (which will be clearly visible at the time of booking) and may indicate lodge preference and location within each lodge (e.g. bar area, Georgian Bay Lounge etc.)
• Club staff (dining host) will then assign a table for the reservation and advise member of table number via email
• All tables in all lodges will be numbered 
• Dining hosts will be clearly located in each lodge to provide assistance, along with Club and food & beverage staff
• Reservations will also serve as an excellent tool for contact tracing 

 
Helpful Hints

• If you can, avoid the typical busy lunch period between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 pm. – take a late morning coffee break (don’t forget to reserve first), or bring your snacks to eat on the hill, and enjoy the slopes during lunch
• If possible, have lunch at your chalet, outside or in your vehicle
• Enjoy the new outdoor dining option on the Base Lodge deck – new chairs and tables with heaters and umbrellas to keep you warm.  Reservations aren’t required, but a 30 minute limit will apply.
• Lunch breaks for those in Alpine Programs are 45 minutes – table reservations are for 30 minutes.  Plan your activities (picking up kids, washrooms, ordering food) so you are ready to sit down as soon as your reservation time opens
• The previously announced arrangements by which some program groups would eat lunch with their coaches will not be offered based on revised direction from Grey Bruce Public Health

Updated February 19 2021 

• Our goal is to keep the Club operating for the remainder of the season. 
• Therefore, Board and management have made the decision to be proactive and open with caution, temporarily suspending all indoor dining and indoor bar service, effective Friday February 19^th,
• Food service will be offered in both the Base Lodge (Roadrunner Foods) and North Lodge (SoCo Foods) with take-out / “grab and go” options
• The food truck on the Base Lodge deck and Starbucks will be open starting Saturday February 20^th
• We recommend members, guests and staff eat at their chalets where possible, in their vehicles, or on outdoor spaces provided – this includes consumption of all beverages. 
• The chairs provided indoors are for warm up purposes only and not for food or beverage consumption
• Brown bagging is not permitted indoors in any location.
• The table reservation system will not be implemented while indoor dining is suspended.
• We will assess indoor dining on a regular basis going forward and provide updates to the membership as required.
• This approach will allow the Club to gauge how the province’s re-opening plan is unfolding, in particular in Grey County and surrounding areas, and at other Clubs.  This also allows us to better understand any potential concerns of spread due to the new Covid variants. 

 Protocols for Food Service in Cafeteria by Roadrunner Foods

• one entrance to the cafeteria for all marché, grab & go stations
• one line maintained throughout the cafeteria from food to purchase 
• servery is equipped with plexi-glass where customers interact with food and beverage staff

• significant focus on grab and go items, both hot and cold, and pre-packaged goods to reduce wait times and potential line-ups
• elimination of exposed food products (hot pastry display, toaster, chili and soup stations)
• chili and soups will be available from the hot food line & hot grab and go counter
• individually wrapped food services (baked goods, sandwiches, salads, snacks, etc)

GOAL:  Minimize time and numbers in the locker rooms at all times

Access to all lockers, in all locations, will now be managed in time allocations, based on the following:

• For members with odd number lockers, access times are:
  • 0:00 to 0:10 (top of the hour to ten minutes past the hour) plus 5-minute transition time
  • 0:30 to 0:40 (on the half hour to twenty minutes to the hour) plus 5-minute transition time
• For members with even locker numbers, access times are:
  • 0:15 to 0:25 (quarter past the hour to twenty-five minutes past the hour) plus 5-minute transition time
  • 0:45 to 0:55 (quarter to the hour to five minutes to the hour) plus 5-minute transition time

Colour coded signage will be posted on each locker to remind members of their allotted times for access.

Helpful Hints

• Consider using your vehicle as your change room and locker
• Minimize the number of people in your family going into the locker rooms at one time
• Store only your most required items in the locker – this will make it easier and quicker to get out what you need

GOAL:  Reduce locker usage for whole season

 

• Members will have the option of “opting out” of using their locker for the coming season, with payment of a holding fee based on approximately 25% of the full fee
• A credit will be issued to the member account for the difference between the full fee if already paid and the holding fee
• Members choosing this option must remove any locker contents they require for the season by Sunday December 20^th, and the Club will then lock the locker for the season with a new lock
• The locker will not be reallocated to another member for the season, in keeping with the goal of reducing the number of members accessing locker areas
• Members wishing to take up this option should contact Cindy Brown no later than Sunday December 20^th at membership@craigleith.com, or via phone to 705 445 3847 ext. 226, providing their member number, name, locker number and combination if a lock is in place, along with confirmation that the locker contents have been removed
