Clubhouse 1 Renovation Update

Renovations to the historic Clubhouse 1, a key community landmark at Laguna Woods Village, began on March 4 and are progressing smoothly, with completion expected in mid-September. This first significant refurbishment since 1964 includes modernizing interiors such as flooring, lighting, and wall coverings, along with replacing doors, windows, and the exterior paint of the 41,000-square-foot facility.

Construction Progress

They are now in the fifth week of this 24-week project. Key milestones so far include:

  • Exterior painting and new window installations, set to be completed by May.
  • Complete removal and upcoming restoration of restroom and shower fixtures, expected by June.

Important Reminders and Changes

  • Safety: Residents are reminded not to enter the construction zones around Clubhouse 1. Security will monitor the area to ensure compliance.
  • Recreation Access: Due to increased contractor activity, residents can bring only one guest at a time to the pickleball courts and the Community Fitness Center. Usage time limits may apply during peak hours.
  • Parking and Traffic: Limited parking is available at the Community Center. We suggest visiting during non-peak hours for better access.
  • Alternative Activities: Badminton and light volleyball are temporarily relocated to the Tennis Center’s courts. Pool 2 remains closed for maintenance until mid-April, but bocce and pétanque are available as usual.

Expanded Fitness Center Hours

To accommodate the community during renovations, the Community Fitness Center and Clubhouse 5 Fitness Center have extended their hours:

  • Community Fitness Center: Open Monday-Friday, 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.; weekends from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Clubhouse 5 Fitness Center: Open daily from 5:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Additional Resources

  • Transportation Hub: Relocated to the parking lot east of the Village Library at 24266 Calle Aragon.
  • Library and History Center: Remain open with parking access near the entrances.

It’s so exciting to see Clubhouse 1 finally getting the attention it deserves! The renovations sound comprehensive, and I’m particularly looking forward to the modernized interiors. Kudos to the team for keeping everything on track!

I really appreciate the updates on the renovation progress. The temporary changes, like extended hours at the Fitness Center and relocated activities, seem well-thought-out. Can’t wait to see the finished Clubhouse 1 in September!
