Roof Top and Wall Fan Policy
Periodically we will hear the wane of a member shouting - turn the fans on!
The clubs policy for turning on fans is as follows: The overhead roof top
fans will be turned on if the temperature as measured at the front desk is
at or above 65. If the temperature is above 70 degrees the desk will turn
on the end wall fans as well. As one member may want the fans on, others
prefer just the opposite. The end wall warehouse and walk through doors
should not be opened unless the temperature again, measured at the front
desk is above 65 degrees. Thank you for your cooperation.
