“If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. We need not wait to see what others do.”-Mahatma Gandhi.
Day 65 shutdown. First, a delayed shoutout to our team MVPs for week 2 of the #smdcfshutdownchallenge, from the Pandemic Posse-Tangie G.; and from the Rona Regulators-Ellen V. (back to back). Congrats to both of you and thank you!
As we less than patiently wait for May 29 to resume outdoor fitness which most of Maryland is permitted to do, but we in Charles Country are not, we want to make sure you know we are working hard to make sure our Phase 2 reopening is at maximum safety for you, your family, our staff, and their family. We have been in contact with the Department of Health, the Charles County Sheriff’s Office, and Charles County Emergency Services, and well as spending the past 40-50 hours per week for the past 65 days working at a large chain essential store and been allowed to operate without issue, and we have taken these measures and can apply them even more thoroughly to our own box.
Please do not think that our desire to reopen is greater than the safety of others. After all, we have always believed in the Hippocratic Oath, which states first off, do no harm. And the last thing we want to do to anyone, much less our members who have supported us during this time, is expose you to any harm. Maybe you feel like you are not ready to rejoin us even if you have been paying your membership fee during this shutdown time, and we are working hard to roll out our online fitness program, which will be much more detailed and involved than a daily Zoom class. This online option will be open to anyone who wishes to wait to rejoin either Outdoor Fitness or our regular classes out of a desire of the possibly safer environment of their own home. This option will also KEEP YOU ACCOUNTABLE, the hardest thing about fitness!
