FWCF COVID-19 Outbreak Response Plan

The health and safety of our community is our top priority.

Therefore, as we all consume information across a wide range of outlets including the media, vendors, and social media channels, it is vital for all of us to remain aware and responsive to the ever-changing status of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Rest assured, we are in contact with health officials and others in our industry and we continue to monitor the situation. We will rely upon the Kentucky Department of Health or other state agencies, as well as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the WHO for guidance.

At this time, there are no actions currently suggested for our operations and we look forward to seeing you! However, as recommended by the World Health Organization, we ask that you “stay home if you feel unwell … and follow the directions of your local health authority.”

We encourage you to seek guidance from health agencies for up-to-date information:

We are also taking precautionary measures to help minimize the risk for our community. Please note the changes below, and contact us with any questions.

Remove Chalk Buckets
- This is a very shared piece of equipment. Please plan to bring your own “chalk ball” if you need it, and limit sharing it.
Installed 4 additional Hand Sanitizing Dispensers
- 2 by each equipment disinfecting station, 1 by kids room, and 1 in lobby
Increased stock of towels and lysol for disinfecting equipment
Eliminate Saturday “free community class”
- For the time being this class will be limited to active members of our gym, and not open to the public.
Educate and encourage members on RX’ing their hand washing
- We have posted graphics of proper washing and preventive measures in both bathrooms
- 20s of scrubbing while washing your hands is RX’d, any less is a “no rep”
Please, please stay home if you’re feeling sick
For the time being we will limit partner workouts and shared equipment
Our coaches plan to end classes 5min early to have athletes disinfect their equipment
- Please be responsible and disinfect your equipment. Your diligence here is the most effective thing we can do as a community.
We encourage you to leave kids at home if that is an option, as children and the elderly are the most at risk.
We will start to offer “at home” options for each daily WOD
Computers (Music and Check-In) are for coaches only now, athletes are asked to check in on their phones.

Thank you for your understanding as we navigate this situation.
