PLEASE CHECK THIS ANNOUNCEMENT FREQUENTLY FOR UPDATES! Last updated: 1/13/21

It is great news that Governor Brown announced seniors age 65+ being a priority for the COVID-19 vaccine later this month. She emphasized PATIENCE as they figure out the process. It is still UNKNOWN if we (Summerfield Civic Association) can have a clinic in our community, but we are working on it! Keep watching this announcement for details. (We may find out that residents need to work through their medical provider). Note: The Summerfield ESTATES qualified for the Phase 1a vaccine because they are a long-term care facility (Summerfield Civic Association is a homeowners association).

RESIDENTS: PLEASE mail in your assessment check or drop it off quickly (exterior mail slot or under office window). READ your January newsletter for all the details (newsletters are mailed to every residence and it also posted on this website, under About Us, Newsletters). If you still choose to come into the Clubhouse, please wear your mask PROPERLY! THANK YOU!

ALERT: Our community has had a total of six residents with COVID-19. All are recovering at home. They had NO access to any common areas. Please continue to be vigilant in following all of the protocols---masks, distancing, cleaning, etc.

The approved 2021 Annual Assessment is $625 per person (down $50 from the 2020 amount!). 2021 Annual Assessments are payable now through February 15, 2021. Detailed budget info is posted on the Clubhouse bulletin board, lobby alcove poster, available from the SCA Office or residents may email a request to sca55@comcast.net

ALERT: Washington County is still in the "Extreme Risk" category and therefore the following still applies for the Summerfield Clubhouse:

*Group limit of 6 people total, recommended limit 2 households; this means most groups are CANCELED. All groups have been contacted.

*NO access to the Fitness Centers or Ping Pong.

*The Clubhouse remains open to residents (bring your fob and wear your mask) to walk through, visit the Library, read the bulletin board, use the restroom.

*A mask / face covering is required in the Clubhouse. A "face covering" means a cloth, polypropylene, paper or other face covering that covers the nose and the mouth and that rests snugly above the nose, below the mouth, and on the sides of the face. The Oregon Health Authority does not recommend that individuals wear a face shield instead of a mask or face covering, therefore the SCA Board does not permit a face shield alone. Thank you for your compliance.

The Off-Season Golf Pass is now available! $175 for unlimited golf from now until February 28, 2021! Limited quantity available; purchase from the Golf Pro Shop.

The next SCA Board Meeting is Monday, February 8th, 2021 at 9:00 AM via Zoom. Residents may contact the SCA Office for the Zoom link.

Although the Clubhouse is open to residents again, let’s be very clear—the COVID-19 virus is still prevalent and we have a very susceptible community. By entering the Clubhouse, you assume all risk of contracting COVID-19. There is no essential SCA business inside the Clubhouse---you may contact the SCA Office via phone or email, utilize this website and use the exterior mail slot if needed.

*Please use the front door when entering the Clubhouse (touchless entry). There is a new "wave to exit" feature for exiting out the front door (touchless exit). Just wave in front of the black box to the left of the doors.

*You will need your fob for entry; front doors to remain locked at all times. (Remember to “beep” your own fob, even if the door is still open, this will help us with contact tracing if necessary). Need a fob? Contact the SCA office to schedule a time to obtain one.

*Please stay 6’ away from others (unless from the same household).

*Please limit touching anything in the Clubhouse. You may want to use a tissue or paper towel to open doors, cupboards, handles, etc. If you do touch something, please use one of the 16 sinks with soap to wash your hands frequently and/or the hand sanitizer stations. Please also use the cleaning wipes to wipe down spaces that you’ve touched.

LIBRARY: Occupancy limit of 4 people. Put returned library items in the marked bins outside of the Library (in the hallway). Do not remove items from the bin. Do not bring returned items into the Library. Full return bins will go into “quarantine” for an amount of time. Please use the new hand sanitizer station before entering the Library (located at the Library doors). Wait your turn in the hallway if necessary, staying 6’ away from others. Please limit your visit in the Library to 15 minutes. It is recommended that you disinfect your new library materials when you get home (household spray cleaner or a disinfecting wipe).

PING PONG: Unable to meet while Washington County is in the "Extreme Risk" category.

The SCA Office is back to regular office hours of Monday - Friday, 8 AM - 12 noon. As always, here's how to contact the office if they are closed:

*Leave a voicemail at 503.620.0131

*Email sca55@comcast.net

*Put a note in the mail slot under the office window OR in the exterior mail slot (by the utility door, with a gold flap)

As another reminder, if you feel ill, please do not come to the Clubhouse. Please continue to keep at least 6’ from others, wear your mask / face covering when out and about, wash your hands frequently and not touch your face.

We are counting on our residents to follow these new Clubhouse guidelines and we appreciate your cooperation! As always, if you have further questions or concerns, please contact the SCA Office (phone, email, note). Thank you!
