What is the health club bond?
The health club bond protects the party requesting the surety bond, the Obligee, against any financial losses as a result of poor financial choices, damages, unethical decisions, or a failure to adhere to state and local laws on the part of you, the Principal. By obtaining your bond, you are telling the Obligee that you can be trusted and that you stand by your business decisions.
The Virginia health club bonds are also known as: Virginia health studio bond, fitness bond, fitness club bond, and health club bond.
