Surviving to Thriving
Surviving to Thriving
The coronavirus pandemic has been a rollercoaster ride to say the least. As the number of COVID-19 cases in the U.S. have increased again in recent weeks, many states have already begun forcing community rec centers to reclose their doors.
To help you navigate this uncertain time, we’ve assembled a panel of industry experts for a virtual roundtable, brought to you by Lebert Fitness, to discuss strategies to help your facility thrive — not just survive — in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Topics include:
- Setting your facility up for future success even in a difficult time.
- Adjusting cleanliness, safety and distancing procedures based on state and county guidelines.
- Communicating with members about changes in the facility — new hours, restricted programs, closures, etc.
- Emphasizing the importance of your services in the community.
- Getting involved on a local level — partnering with local businesses to pool resources/provide services, as well as advocate with policy-makers on behalf of your facility.
- Preparing for a possible reclosure of your facility.
- Bracing for the continued financial impact of the pandemic.
Panelists:
- Chris Tointon, president and CEO of the YMCA of Greater Omaha
- Art Krueger, director of The Wave Aquatic and Fitness Center
- Todd Rockoff, president and CEO of the Tucson JCC
This roundtable is sponsored by Lebert Fitness.
