| Dear Rady JCC Friends,
As we approach the end of our first week back, my initial feelings of excitement for our reopening have not wavered. Instead, they have only gotten stronger as each day went by. They’ve gotten stronger with every interaction I’ve had with our members; by seeing their smiles; through feeling their energy; by hearing about their experiences.
We continue to ask and listen to our members on how we can heighten their time spent here. Every measure in place right now is temporary. We assess each passing day and plan to add different amenities in due time, doing so with safety and well-being top-of-mind.
Earlier this week, I received a beautiful message from two of our members, Stewart and Patricia Fay. I want to share some of their comments on their first experience since we reopened our doors.
The facility is so clean, so well organized and so well set up to make everyone feel safe and secure in these very difficult times and we appreciate all the work that has gone into making Rady ready for “action”.
Plus, it was so very nice to see all our friends on staff….the front security desk folks, Josh, Edwin and Marion at the sports desk, Kevin Saunders and Max up in the gym and then Maura and the custodial staff as we left. Wow!
We can only say, “Job well done!”
Thank you, Stewart and Patricia, for your kind words. Our dedicated Rady staff go above and beyond, striving to ensure that all our members have positive experiences and interactions.
