30 September 2021
Following our last communication regarding the opening of the gym on 1 October 2021, we regret to inform you that it has been rescheduled to open on 16 October 2021 instead. This is due to the non-delivery of a vital component of the Fire Safety System from a Covid-19 locked down factory in Japan, which will only be delivered in mid-November 2021. This has caused the inability of the gym to be certified for fire safety compliance as mandated by the Singapore Civil Defence Force. Meanwhile, the electrician is sourcing for a temporary system until the component part arrives.
In addition, two workers on site have unfortunately contracted Covid-19 and this has resulted in the restriction of manpower deployed to finish the renovation works. Please rest assured that this is an isolated case and the infection is contained within the Sports Block. Since then, we have thoroughly disinfected the Sports Block.
The gym will open for fully vaccinated* members and their guests from 16 October 2021 with a common set of workout equipment. The gym is expected to be fully equipped by the end of October.
The existing arrangement with the Hollandse Club to accommodate our gym enthusiasts will also cease on 1 Oct 2021 due to the current Covid-19 tightened safe management measures.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience and understanding.
* Refers to a fully vaccinated person (2 weeks after the second dose of vaccine: Pfizer BioNTech/Comirnaty or Moderna)
