New name, schedule announcements, moving updates, and workouts for week of 7/6/20

ICYMI: We are now Fog City CF! Thanks to everyone who submitted ideas and voted. We’re excited to continue to strengthen and grow this community with our new name, and coming soon, a new identity (see photo below for design inspo). 

Some important schedule announcements for the week:

  • Check out the schedule and please note that Monday and Tuesday evening’s classes will be at 6pm (not 5pm).

  • We’re sharing the class plans (slide decks) for the whole week via this Google Drive folder. (Access to the folder is restricted to members, based on email addresses through MINDBODY. If you need access, request via the link and/or reach out to comments@arenaready.com.)

Moving updates:

  • Next weekend (7/11 & 7/12) are our official move-out dates. We’ll be loading up everything left in the gym into storage pods while we continue the search for our new home.

  • People still have things in cubbies, if that’s you, swing by during one of the pick-up times below. Anything not claimed will be donated.

  • There are some small-ish pieces of gym equipment and more valuable items that we’re hoping to store in people’s homes, rather than in the pod. Check out this list and sign up in the “volunteer” column if you’d like to borrow the equipment and/or have some space to store items. Pick-up will be during the windows below. (Access to the folder is restricted to members, based on email addresses through MINDBODY. If you need access, request via the link and/or reach out to comments@arenaready.com.)

Gym access pickup times:

  • Saturday 7/11 2-4pm

  • Sunday 7/1212-2pm

If neither time works for you, reach out to Katoa@arenaready.com to coordinate.

Do you have ideas, questions, or suggestions for the interim board? We’d love to hear from you at comments@arenaready.com!
