In an effort to eliminate confusion for members about the availability of club services and facilities when severe weather is forecasted, the general manager shall determine club hours and service based on availability of staff and severity of weather as reported by the National Weather Service.

Club closure, delayed opening, or opening with limited services is announced to members at least four hours in advance, and by 9 p.m. for the following day. Weather alerts are posted on themac.com homepage and at all entrances as soon as they are announced.

When Portland Public Schools announces closure, early dismissal, or delayed opening due to weather, MAC Child Care, Playschool, and youth classes are canceled or delayed. Coaches determine if specific sport team practices are canceled and use TeamSnap or Team Unify to notify the teams directly.

YOUTH ACTIVITIES

EXPERIENCING AND CREATING POETRY (AGES 7-11)

INTRODUCTION TO MARLISLE KNITTING (AGES18+)

Marlisle knitting is a simple, yet novel approach to stranded knitting. This technique, pioneered by Anna Maltz, works with two colors of yarn to create patterns in stockinette and garter stitch. Whether you are an accomplished knitter, or an advanced beginner, looking to learn new techniques in knitting, there is always something new to learn and try – and it can be surprisingly simple! Marlisle lets you reevaluate rules, your yarn and what you thought were the limits of colorwork in knitting. The knitting project for this class is The Coniferous Hat, published by Interweave Gifts magazine. This pattern uses the marlisle technique that combines marling and solid colors through stranded knitting to create a colorful, geometric beanie. This hat is worked from the bottomup starting with a twisted-rib brim in the main color, then a strand of a contrasting color is added to create the colorful garter-stitch sections. This class is taught by Lisa Carney-Fenton, owner of the Handworks Knitting Studio. Capacity: 9 2/3 F 3-4:30 p.m. Pettygrove $40/$60 AEC114
