| Ranch House Reopening Update
We know you are all excited for the Ranch House facility to reopen. We are delighted to share that we will be opening the lap pool beginning Wednesday, June 3. Swimming laps at the Ranch House will look differently than what you are used to.
What you can expect:
- Members are asked to reserve their lap lane online at rivervalleyranch.tennisbookings.com. Drop-ins will not be accepted.
- Members will be asked to enter through the side gate of the Ranch House near the tennis courts. The front desk will be stationed at the snack shack to check you in.
- We will not be offering towels, or locker room and restroom access. The restroom located in the Ranch House entryway will be available only for emergencies. So, please plan ahead!
Our next reopening efforts will be focused on the gym. There is much to be figured out for the reopening of this amenity, to make sure we keep members safe and healthy. Please continue to look for updates on our website and weekly news for announcements on dates and details next week.

Deer Fencing Storage
A reminder to RVR residents who are storing their deer fencing for the summer season: please make sure it’s stored out of sight — from the street and from your neighbors. Whether that means storing the fencing in your basement, attic, crawl space, or offsite away from RVR — please find a place for the deer fencing that has no visual impact on the RVR community.
