***MOJACAR BOWLS CLUB COMMITTEE LATEST UPDATE 7***

** NEW MBC STATEMENT Wednesday 2nd September **

Following a meeting that our President Verna Bimpson  and myself had with the management of Hotel Marina Playa this morning, they have confirmed that the hotel will be closed from October 12th 2020, until February 2nd 2021, as will all other hotels in Mojacar.

We discussed MBC's requirements during the closure period,  and they have confirmed we can carry on bowling and that the water and electricity connections will be left on for us.  Apart from a final clean they will only carry out a clean two times per month, which is insufficient to comply with the Protocol for us operating, therefore the cleaning which needs to be rigorously carried out after each bowling session, will be down to the club, and will be discussed at the next committee meeting

We have agreed with the hotel that no subscriptions will be paid until the hotel opens again in February, meaning that there will be no charge for the period that the hotel is closed, and  all subscriptions will commence in February 2021.

For your extra information, talks are ongoing with FAB as to whether it will be possible to play leagues or winter competitions and as soon as we have firm news we will let you all know.

Rest assured that your committee are working in your best interests to keep everything going and to ensure that we all remain safe while bowling.

Dear Bowlers,

We are now open for members Roll ups, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays only.... Hooray!

After the first week of bowling, everyone is observing the new 'Normal'

Rules and the concensus is that it is all working well.

Remember, We must remain vigulant to stay safe.

Apologies If anyone has contacted the club during the lockdown period and have not recieved a reply, could you please resend your enquiry through the contact page section of this website.

Latest rules subject to revision at any time, please revisit regularly.

You now MUST wear a face mask at all times. On entering, you will be asked to sanitise your hands and register with your name and contact details in a book provided outside the office, please bring your own pen to use. We are required to do this to provide Track and Tracing information should it be required. All our furniture and equipment will have been sanitised by the hotel and they will continue to do this on the days that we open. Members will not be allowed extra visits for practice or games outside of these sessions for the foreseeable future.

We are still getting updates to the regulations from FAB/ Junta de Andalucia which will cover the 'New Normal' and we will send these to you as soon as they are received.

On behalf of the Committee, we look forward to bowling together again soon.
