"Club San Diego" rebrands focusing on fun, safety and well-being [View all]

Health and the well-being of patrons are a priority for the management team. The newly designed lobby presents a welcoming, clean, fresh environment along with prominent signage of a zero drug and alcohol tolerance policy. Violation of that policy, stalking patrons while on property or taking photographs can lead to a lifetime ban from
the facility.

In the new year, Club San Diego is also partnering with the AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF), the STI treatment clinic and specialty pharmacy with a branch conveniently located across the street at 3940 Fourth Ave. AHF specializes in PrEP, PEP, and HIV treatment. Through specific funding sources, the nonprofit pharmacy can see people regardless of the ability to pay or lack of insurance. It offers a treatment commonly known as a “morning after pill,” which could benefit members of CSD who feel they may have made unhealthy choices.

Following last year’s fire, the CSD management team turned to other mens health clubs/sauna owners for support and inspiration — in particular, the Midtown Spa in Los Angeles, which heavily promotes health and social events to encourage business as it does in its other locations near San Pedro and Denver. At CSD, the weekly special events now include a Movie Night Monday, Woof Thursday (catering to the bear community with food and fun), and Fantasy Friday (for fetish and toy play). There is also a barely legal discount with a free six-month membership for patrons ages 18 to 21 years old and college students 25 years old and younger with valid student identification.

“The younger generation doesn’t want sex and play in a seedy environment. They want to socialize and meet up,” said Watts in his description of the club’s rebranding. “We want to be more community minded and develop long-term
members.”
