Maintenance Preparation for Clubhouse Events

Fall is here. The many clubs and various interest groups

are beginning a new season. Maintenance will be busy and

challenged in setting up and preparing the ClubHouse to

meet the needs of these organizations. In a week’s time

Maintenance will setup and break down the club room

eight to twelve times with cleaning and vacuuming after

each event.

This week we began Saturday with a setup for the

Sunday night Potluck. Monday morning the Potluck tables

are removed and the carpet vacuumed to be ready for the

8:30 a.m. Exercise Class. When the Exercise Class leaves

at 9:30 a.m., we setup for the noon Garden Club meeting.

Later we break down the Garden Club tables and set up for

the 2:30 p.m. Emeritus Class.

Early Tuesday the Emeritus Class chairs are removed

and tables are set up for the Men’s Club meeting to be followed

by another break down and setup for the 2:00 p.m.

Emeritus Class. Wednesday we remove the Emeritus Class

chairs, vacuum and set up for the 8:30 a.m. Fitness Class

followed by the 11:00 a.m. setup for the Bridge players.

Nothing is scheduled for the ClubHouse on Thursday

so we cleanup for the Friday Fitness Class to be followed

by a set up for a Saturday night private party.

All this requires coordination and scheduling of manpower.

Speaking of scheduling, let’s give a shout out to the

office and maintenance staff for their planning and resident

notification of street closing during the recent street

maintenance. This involved e-mails, direct mail and hand

delivered notices, street signs and pylons. It was a good job

of minimizing the disruption of this street maintenance.
