The club opened on Friday, June 26th as Berks County went to the green phase. At that time, because we were limited to 50% capacity, the board decided to open the club to members only. As of last night, we have not seen the 50% capacity limit so we have decided to open the club to members and guests of members starting Thursday night, July 2nd. Guests of members must be signed in the book at the front door and will not be allowed to order drinks at the bar or to gamble. Members must purchase drinks for their guests. Remember, masks must still be worn when entering the building, to go to the restroom or to move through the bar or deck, and when leaving the club – you may remove your mask when seated. As a reminder, all members must show their membership cards in order to be served and bartenders will be asking to see the cards. The Sleepy Hollow AC board members are looking out for your safety as well as complying with CDC and PLCB guidelines and regulations for clubs.

Fishing at Sleepy Hollow
Thanks to Lee Angstadt & Jake Ketterer, several hundred trout have been put in the pond at Sleepy Hollow AC. Starting Saturday, June 13, 2020 at 9:00 AM, kids of members under 15 can start fishing for those trout. The limit is 4 per kid and will continue though the end of day, Saturday, June 20, 2020. Because of the Covid-19 restrictions, this is not the typical fish rodeo and there will be no prizes, food or beverages provided.
Starting Sunday, June 21, 2020 the pond will be available to members of all ages.
Club Update during PA Opening Phases
Berks county has gone to the Yellow phase starting today, Friday 6/5. We know that some of our members were expecting the club to open…unfortunately, we will not be opening. During the Yellow phase, bars/ restaurants can open outside dinning at 50% capacity. We, as the board, and with insight from Neil, feel that it would not be feasible to open, without side dinning at 50% only. Our club has a catering/club liquor license. That means, by the governor’s mandate & signed bill HB327, clubs can NOT serve mixed drinks to go. Therefore, we are preparing for when Berks county turns to the green phase. We are in the process of setting up the bar, dining area & outside area for “social distancing”. Once Berks county turns to the Green phase, we will open. When we open, we must follow CDC guidelines for social distancing and only be able to operate at 50% capacity. We will only be allowing MEMBERS ONLY, NO guests, at this time, since it is 50% capacity. Masks must be worn when entering the club, ordering drinks, going to the restroom and any other movement within the club. When seated, you do not need to wear the mask. Tables will be set up with 4 chairs…families only at tables, with a 6′ distance to next table. There will be NO standing at the bar, and bar stools will be set up for social distancing. A serving area has been set up and drinks must be ordered from this area only, with social distancing. We have installed hand sanitizers throughout & touch-less faucets in the bathroom sinks.
The board is following CDC guidelines & the governors mandates to insure we are doing what is best for the club.
HOPE to see everyone in the near future.
