The City’s Montanoso and Sierra Recreation Centers are gearing up to reopen to the public on October 5 in accordance with the recently issued state guidelines.

The City of Mission Viejo continues to follow evolving state and local guidelines under the statewide emergency order and has been proactively modifying reopening plans to comply with the new guidelines to ensure patrons remain safe. In anticipation of the October 5 reopening date, the City updated its custodial agreements, staffing schedules and safety measures to welcome members back.

The facilities will reopen with COVID-19 procedures and modified operating hours listed at this link. Along with the modified hours, the gyms will close periodically during the day for additional equipment cleaning on top of the increased sanitizing that City staff will conduct each hour.

“With Orange County’s move into the red tier giving us the opportunity to reopen our recreation facilities with proper COVID-19 procedures and safety measures in place, we are excited about our members returning and complementing their health, wellness and fitness goals,” said Recreation and Community Services Director Mark Nix.
