ADDITIONAL USAGE OPTIONS!
 

You asked, we listened. We're delivering to you an additional option to extend court usage.

The Tennis, Pickleball and Badminton courts still require a reservation. Residents (or members of the same household) are limited to a single reservation per day with an option to extend if there are no other reservations after. Please check with the front desk at the end of your reservation to make sure there are no upcoming reservations. 

The Pool and Spa still require a reservation and is limited to one hour per household per day. If at the end of your reserved time there is an open area in the pool, you may continue to use the pool if there are no other reservations after. Please check with the front desk at the end of your reservation to make sure there are no upcoming reservations. 

Reminder:
Please keep in mind reservations cannot be made more than 24 hours in advance. This includes making a reservation via email, phone or online. 

Thank you for your patience and understanding,

Board of Directors and Management

During these unprecedented times, we want to try to maintain a sense of normalcy at Four Seasons. With Club Renewals, our goal is to be prepared when Riverside County is off the County Monitoring List and the State Health Officer modifies the July 13, 2020 order, to authorize the re-opening of indoor operations. The Board will also consider the re-opening of indoor operations of The Lodge once the orders have been lifted and Riverside County is off of the monitoring list. The Board takes into consideration the safety of our residents, with being a 55+ community – this is the #1 concern and impacts their decisions.

 

Club Renewals
 

If you would like to continue having your club or would like to start a new club here at Four Seasons, renewal and new club packets are now available.

 

Click here for a renewal packet.

Click here for a new club packet.

 

Once the packet is complete return it to Amber Effinger, Activities Director, no later than October 13th, 2020 at 5:00 pm. All clubs must be approved by the Board of Directors prior to commencing operation and are not officially sanctioned without such Board approval. In order for your club to be reviewed/approved the following documents will be required:

1. Club Reservation Application (Incomplete applications will not be considered for approval) 

1. Club Roster with all pertinent membership information

Once approved, an additional email will be sent out requesting that a Social-Recreation Club Policy #23 Acknowledgement Form be signed and returned. Your Club Reservation approval is not final until the acknowledgement form is returned to The Lodge Front Desk.
 
We look forward to another great year of over 50+ clubs!

The Board of Directors and Management

Our priority is to keep the safety and health of everyone in mind. The Board and Management continue to communicate with you through the 4seasonsmurrieta.com website, Weekly Windup, and email blasts. Please share this information with your neighbors. Anyone who is not currently receiving emails from us can contact The Lodge by phone at 951-461-0072 or by email at 4seasonsfrontdesk@gmail.com to get their email added to our distribution list.   Here are some Important Lodge reminders:

Masks: All residents MUST wear face coverings at all times while inside The Lodge building. This is part of the Temporary Lodge Entrance and Exit Rules. It is also a MUST by the California Department of Public Health. Click here to read the guidance for face coverings. If you forget your mask at home, we have some available at The Lodge (limited supply). It is considered a violation and against the rules to not wear a mask when entering and exiting through The Lodge, and fobs may be deactivated for suspension of privileges with proper prior notice. 

Reservations: The Lodge Reservation system has been part of The Lodge Reopening since June 3, 2020. The Reservation system has been put in place to make sure we are in compliance with local & state gathering guidelines. The Board takes into consideration the safety of our residents, with being a 55+ community – this is the #1 concern and impacts their decisions. As of today, gatherings of individuals should be limited to no more than 10 people.  The Board will consider removing the requirements for reservations once the orders have been lifted by State and County Officials.  

Golf Range: Fridays Weekly Wind-up announced the reopening of the driving range. Unfortunately, the net is still too taut and can be dangerous for residents to use.  For the safety of Four Seasons Residents the driving range is currently closed until further notice.

 
Thank you for your support and cooperation at this unusual time.

Dear Four Seasons Community,

With the health and safety of all our residents and staff in mind, we are continuing to provide weekly updates as information becomes available. 

We request residents who use The Lodge facilities and test positive, to please notify the General Manager in writing as soon as possible. Names or personal information are not disclosed unless authorized directly by the individual. Additionally, it would be our hope that those who test positive would self-quarantine, and not come to The Lodge. We feel it is critical to our 55+ high-risk community to inform residents who may use the Four Season's amenities.  Therefore, if you use The Lodge facilities and have tested positive, we urge you to please notify the General Manager in writing, KC Steines, at ksteines@equitymgt.com.

Here is the latest information we know:

We must all do our part!

Dear Four Seasons Community,

As you are aware, the Lodge has been closed since March 19, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Board had voted unanimously in an Open Meeting to close The Lodge and grounds through at least May 1, 2020.

It was our hope to be able to re-open the Lodge today. However, per Governor Newsom’s “stay-at-home” order which has been put in place, we are unable to open The Lodge and grounds until further notice. At this time, we do not have a date. It is important to consider the safety of our residents, with being a 55+ community – this is the #1 concern and impacts our decisions. We certainly do not want to rush into opening without being fully prepared. The Board and Management continue to monitor CDC and government guidelines to determine when The Lodge can safely reopen for all to enjoy.

The Board and management will continue to communicate with you through the 4seasonsmurrieta.com website, Weekly Windup, and email blasts. Please share this information with your neighbors. Anyone who is not currently receiving email from us, can contact The Lodge to get their email added to our distribution list. Staff will be available via email and telephone only. Telephone hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00am-noon, Saturday and Sunday 10:00am-2:00pm.

Stay Safe! Stay Informed!
 

Dear Four Seasons Community,

 

As I am sure you are aware:
•    January 31, 2020  The Secretary of Health and Human Services declared a public health emergency due to the coronavirus.
•    March 4, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency in California. 
•    On March 11, the World Health Organization announced that the COVID-19 outbreak can be characterized as a pandemic. 
•    On March 13, President Trump declared that the Covid-19 outbreak in the U.S. constitutes a national emergency backdated to March 1.
•    March 15, CDC urged a halt to gatherings of more than 50 people for the next eight weeks. 
•    March 15, Gov. Newsom urged people 65 and older, and those with chronic health problems to isolate themselves from others.

 

As a result, the Board after consulting with management has voted unanimously in a Special Executive Session to close the Lodge and grounds effective Wed., March 18 at 10:00 PM through at least May 1, 2020.

 

During this time the Lodge business will still be in operation; staff will be onsite and vendors will be onsite maintaining the building, pool, and grounds. We encourage homeowner business with the Lodge to continue via email or phone. The staff during this time plans to work Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM.

 

The Board and management will continue to communicate with you through the 4seasonsmurrieta.com website, Weekly Windup, and email blasts. Please share this information with your neighbors. Anyone who is not currently receiving email from us, can contact the Lodge to get their email added to our distribution list. 

 

Additional notes:
•    The Movie scheduled for Tuesday, March 17 is cancelled.
•    The Spring Brunch is cancelled. If you paid by check, the check has been voided and shredded. If you paid by credit card, the amount will be refunded to your card. 
•    April Committee meetings and Board meetings will be held through teleconferencing we are setting up now. 
•    All food in the refrigerators will be thrown out on Thursday.
•    Homeowner fobs will be deactivated temporarily until the Lodge reopens.
•    The April newsletter will be distributed online only and posted on the website. 

 

Thank you for your support and cooperation at this unusual time.

Nancy Ahern
