A NOTE TO CHESTERTON MEMBERS REGARDING COVID-19
Updated as of March 25, 2020
Dear Valued Member,
As you know, in accordance with recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and Indiana/Illinois legislators, we made the confident decision to close our Fitness Centers on March 16 th . Like you, we want to do our part to flatten the curve of this pandemic. We have been monitoring the situation closely, alongside Franciscan Alliance hospital administration and will provide updates to members via our website , email and social media outlets.
Both Indiana and Illinois Governors have ordered the public to stay home and leave for only essential reasons through April 7, 2020. In the event our closure lasts longer, please rest assured knowing t hat we will take appropriate actions for dues and services during the closure of your facility. We intend to take care of you to the best of our abilities, as we always have in the past.
The purpose of this letter is to alleviate your burden of financial concern. We have directed our billing company, ABC Financial, to cease April dues’ payments for all members.
Please note: Not all members will receive their credits the same way. The membership plan you have and how your dues are paid will determine any special attention we need to issue your credit. Upon reopening, if you have not received your credit for some reason, please contact the Business Office at your respective club so we can take care of you personally and promptly.
For all GlobalFit members (Chesterton and Schererville ONLY), you will need to contact GlobalFit directly for all requests for credits at 800-294-1500 or email at customerservices@globalfit.com.
