Jeremy Fritz
What is your intramural programing and sport clubs looking like for the fall?
Michael Thomas
For contact tracing purposes...Did you have to close your facility once you had positive tests?
Sue Weaver
Anyone planning to have "in Person" group fitness indoors? If so, what are safety precautions you're taking?
Janice DeMonsi
Our university is going to restrict all travel.....so how do club sports play?
Sue Weaver
We might take temperatures at Check-In. University gave our program 2 "temp guns"
Janice DeMonsi
For the fall, we are not doing anything indoors - the facility will be closed (it is still closed via the county at this time) so all fitness classes will be like special events and on our 4.7 acre field.
Michael Thomas
Anyone planning any outdoor recreation local trips? Biking, hiking, paddle sports, workshops?
Sue Weaver
great, yes thanks!
Sue Weaver
through zoom?
Brenna Lacey
Our group fitness classes have most of the same procedures as Greta described, but we are having a lot of trouble getting consistent signups and employees have shown up without masks on- regardless of it being a requirement by the local government.
Brenna Lacey
Just sharing experience so you think through those scenarios, because it's not a comfortable situation!
Brenna Lacey
We also had trouble today with 2 group fitness participants who temp checked at 100.3 and 100.1 from the outside temperature... each had to cool down to get a "green" reading and this delayed the start of the group fitness class.
Jeremy Fritz
I was planning to do some outdoor trips but due to travel issues our administration advised us not to until the spring
Chris Crume
Keep those great questions coming!

Michael Thomas
Is the NIRSA Championship Series occurring this fall?
Brenna Lacey
Q1) Anyone have any creative solutions for student staff to make sure they leave a full 10-minute dwell time for disinfection throughout the day or during closed cleaning periods? I'm having trouble getting students to understand the importance and that they have to follow up with wiping clean on all contact points. We are currently out of the 3-min dwell time disinfectant wipes so are dependent on spray bottles and towels.
Corbin Hedges
are people using IMLeagues as the way for people to sign up for workout time slots etc? if not what platform are you using?
rachael Finley
We are using IMLeagues (And the App, which we love), for workout time slots, as well as Group Ex sign-ups, IM and Club Sport Sign-ups. There is even a feature for people to see what the realtime capacity is if we have our student employees update it.
Michael Thomas
What is that feature? I have the app, but I did not know it could do realtime capacity.
rachael Finley
Contact IMLeagues (We work with Tyler), and he can get it set up for you. I don’t think it’s automatically there.
Greta Giese
We use SportsMan and having our members sign up for court time for individual workouts or shooting around within your own immediate family group.
Carl Bolton
We are using Do Sports Easy (DSE) and they just added a reservation module for our fitness center
Brenna Lacey, MO Baptist Univ
I have had great luck with picktime.com
Brenna Lacey, MO Baptist Univ
It's completely free and our group fitness members like it because it's really simple and mobile friendly.
Joe Quartarone
If any of you have bocce, I can share all the details for safely playing bocce. Being a VP of US Bocce Federation and run www.GlobalBocce.com, I recently organized a BocceCLEAN webinar for the executives for all North American Bocce Clubs. From interviewing several execs from OR to MO to KY to MA and up to Canada, we have come up with all the best guidelines for keeping bocce players safe. Some of the best things about bocce are people can be spaced out and when you mark the balls, people don't need to share them. After each game, the balls will be sanitized for the next group.
A few of you are talking about trying some new ideas, so if you don’t offer bocce now, I will gladly help anyone who wants to try it at your facility. It can be played either outside or on a gym floor. Trevor, bocce might be a fun option for your Rec Day Thursday when you are playing little games since it’s easy to play and all-inclusive.
rachael Finley
Thanks Joe! We were considering it, I will definitely check out your website!
Paul Clay
Thank you Joe! We are considering host an events as well.
Michael Thomas
Do you have an email Joe?

Janice DeMonsi
Thanks everyone for the roundtable - always learn something - now off to figure out how to cut 50% of our student wages.....in California we will be slow to open and right now are still closed until further notice.
Trevor Brunet
I will be reaching out Joe. I do not currently offer bocce but this is definitely something I would be interested in offering. We are always looking for different games and sports that our students are not familiar with.
Sue Weaver
thank you to everyone!
Corbin Hedges
