Thank you La Madrona Members!
All of us staff would like to thank those of you who have continued to show your amazing support to La Madrona through our opening!
We have truly appreciated all the support in following our new safety procedures. It seems like some of you are enjoying some the "new" way of doing things more than before.
It has felt so wonderful to see those of you that have been regularly using the Club again! We have worked hard to make sure the Club feels safe and is as similar to the La Madrona experience you shared before as possible.
Your kind words, gifts, and smiles has made all the hard work feel so worth it! Thank you very much!

Tennis Updates
Hello Members
It's hard to believe that we are on week 3 of reopening. WOW! I see a lot of you back on the courts and there are a lot of you still waiting a bit. AND THAT"S OK! We are here to help you if are playing now and will be there when you're ready if you're not playing yet.
Of course its summer time and courts are busy with young campers running around. These campers keep us busy weekday from 10-4pm and we use quite a few courts to accommodate them, in our new normal, so keep that in mind when planning your next tennis outing. A few things to remember when you come and play;
- No water fountains are available so bring plenty of water
- Hand sanitizer is available throughout the club but bringing your own never hurts
- Use it every time before you use your towel or water bottle for safety precautions
- Club is only open until 8pm (Not 9pm)
- Tennis Landing and some benches are off limit.
These are just a few tennis specific guidelines and we certainly appreciate everyone being safe. Social distancing and mask wearing is a little bizarre but we can see everyone making extra efforts to follow our guidelines.
Now, a few update on our tennis programming. We are still available for private lessons or small group if anyone is interested just contact me or your favorite pro for a lesson, but I can I not be your favorite ;-)
We are here to help you improve your game and work out some kinks after a little time off the courts. You can also drop your racquet at the clubhouse for some much needed racquet stringing if that is the case. Finally, stay tuned as we will soon resume our weekly clinics and Saturday drop in.
Well! That's all for now! You know where to find me if you have any questions, comments or suggestions.
See you all on the courts
Cheers
Fred
Aquatics Update
The swimming pool is alive and well and members have been logging laps. Our lap reservation system is in its infancy but proving to be a wonderful tool moving forward in Covid times. Welcome back swimmers!
We were able to register a fraction of the children we usually have for our summer junior guard program. Every session is full and we have an extensive waitlist. The weather has been beautiful! But as we know, the pesky fog can roll in at anytime. Many thanks to our junior guards who show up, swim hard, and engage in the fun activities our instructors have to share.
