How Does a Colorado Health Club Bond Work?
As with all surety bonds, a health club bond creates a legal contract between three parties:
- Principal: You, the health club filing the bond
- Obligee: The Colorado Department of Law requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of CRS Title 6. Consumer and Commercial Affairs § 6-1-105.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety.
How Do I Renew My Bond?
These bonds expire annually. To renew your health club bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.
We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
