COVID-19 Update Clubhouse Remains Closed (Updated 1/20/2021)

Your WCHOA regrets to announce that due to a variety of critical factors, including procedural, legal, and economic factors, a difficult decision has been made for the Clubhouse to remain CLOSED until further notice. Additionally, changes have been made to the proposed 2021 Events Calendar as shown elsewhere on this website. Pursuant to executive orders by the Governor, and guidance offered by local authorities, legal counsel and insurance providers, severe restrictions have been imposed, and under the terms and guidelines of our liability insurance, opening of select community amenities during the current ongoing pandemic is not an option. In addition to regulatory mandates, and liability exposure for the WCHOA, it is simply not financially feasible within the constraints of our current budget. Just a few of the considerations going into this decision include required additional sanitization requirements, as well as the necessity to hire the services of a monitor to enforce occupancy limits, social distancing, and other unaffordable precautionary health measures. During this operational interruption, the expense of routine community amenity maintenance must continue along with maintenance on all other Association assets. The WCHOA Board will not entertain requests to refund or interrupt dues payments. The WCHOA Board will continue to monitor all issues contributing to this decision and communicate any updates to the Association members as soon as possible.
