                   New Gym, Pool, Spa & Clubhouse Guidelines
       Due to new CDC guidelines allowing for limited outdoor gatherings, as of May 1st, the
pool, spa and wader will no longer require reserva ons. All reserva ons for the spa, lanes 1-5
and lane 8 will no longer be valid a er April 30th. Lanes 6 and 7 will be set up on the reserva on
system for those who want to reserve a specific lane at a certain me for lap swimming. There
will be a third lane, lane 8, set up on a first come first serve basis. The third lap lane will also be
used for swim lessons during designated hours that are to be determined. If a swim lesson has
been canceled, homeowners are welcome to use the lane for lap swimming. Honey Double-
bower has once again agreed to be the swim instructor on a limited basis for the community. If
you are interested in finding out more about private and semi private swim lessons, you may
contact Honey directly at 858.733.1001. Please note that the pool area will be closed from
8:00am-9:00am Monday, Wednesday and Friday each week for maintenance. Management is
working with the pool company to change this, but un l then, please plan accordingly.
       As of May 1st, the gym will be open to five people at a me whether they are all from
one household or not. This will require each member of the household to schedule their own
individual reserva on and con nue to check in at the front desk upon arrival. Members will be
responsible for wiping down the equipment before and a er use with the disinfec ng wipes
provided. All other posted CDC guidelines shall be adhered to while using the gym.
     The Clubhouse is available to rent for events up to fi y people with certain provisions. If
you would like to rent the clubhouse, please contact The Valley Club office for more details.
      We look forward to returning to a level of normalcy where homeowners can
once again enjoy the facili es and feel connected to the community and their neigh-
bors.

Pool Area RenovaƟon Project Update
The Board is discussing upgrades to the pool area and bathrooms. The goal is to keep the members in-
formed throughout the process. Each month we will dedicate a sec on of the newsle er for this purpose.
In April a priority list was created to ensure that the renova ons stay within the allocated budget. Below
are a few pictures of some “pie in the sky” solu ons for upda ng the pool area, showers and bathrooms.

Financial Update Report
We expect to be back up and running at normal capacity this Summer if all goes as planned. Some members
have expressed concern on whether this pandemic has nega vely affected the Associa on’s finances. Un-
fortunately the Associa on has lost revenue these past twelve months due to the inability to rent out the
clubhouse. Clubhouse rentals are incorporated into the annual budget as a way to offset certain expenses.
Loss of income combined with the increased expenses associated with mee ng the disinfec ng require-
ments created some level of concern. Through all of this, the Associa on has been able to absorb this loss of
income and stay within budget due to the Board’s careful watch over expenditures, closure of the gym and
spa per the County ordinances, and less usage of the u li es. Thank you to all the volunteers who have ded-
icated their personal me to serve the community. They are the reason La Costa Valley Master Associa on
has stayed on track this year and remains a premier community within Carlsbad. Please email Chris ne
Birster, the general manager, at cbirster@keystonepacific.com with any financial inquiries.
