We regret to advise you that the Toronto Windsurfing Club is now completely closed until further notice. This closure includes all grounds and facilities such as the parking lot, lawn, storage trailers and, as announced last week, the clubhouse and toilets.
This action follows an order by the Government of Ontario in response to the outbreak of COVID-19 which requires the closure of all outdoor recreational amenities in the province. It also reflects recommendations from Ontario Sailing and is consistent with the decisions of all other clubs of the Outer Harbour Sailing Federation which are also closed.
As a result of this closure, the lock on the entry gate has been changed and we ask all members to stop visiting the club immediately.
Finally, please be aware that city by-law officers and/or the police have begun significant enforcement actions with fines and penalties which start at $750. The City of Toronto has also announced an emergency order regulating physical distancing in parks and public spaces, which include the club’s property and surrounding area. Any members who continue to visit the club will be doing so at their own risk.
We thank you for your support and cooperation during this challenging period and hope that everyone will do their part to maintain appropriate “physical distancing” to successfully “flatten the curve”. Please click here to contact us with any questions.
