To our valued guests:
Your health and safety is our top priority. Therefore as we follow the quickly developing environment around Coronavirus (COVID-19) we are hardening our policies to help us prevent the spread of the virus and limit the impact on our community. Thank you for reading this and supporting our efforts!
Following recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control (CDC) we are implementing the following enhanced health and safety policies.
Cleaning
We are implementing enhanced procedures in our locations to protect our guests and staff. These include;
Cleaning shared surfaces regularly with disinfectant.
Providing hand sanitizer and anti-bacterial wipes if available.
Asking our members and guests to help sanitize common surfaces that you have used.
Hygiene
Please follow these important guidelines about hygiene:
Wash your hands frequently and properly. A guide can be found here: www.who.int/gpsc/clean_hands_protection
Use your arm or sleeve when coughing or sneezing, not your hands, and use hand sanitizer regularly. Wash your hands. (It’s a theme.)
Please dispose of tissues immediately and wash hands or use sanitizer any time you have used tissues. (There’s that hand-washing again!)
Refrain from touching your nose or mouth. If you do, please wash your hands afterwards. (In case you forgot.)
Food
We are asking our guests to not serve any unwrapped snacks or "finger food" or common items (potato chips in bags etc.) and to only distribute food items that are covered and distributed with appropriated precatuions (golves, tongs, etc.)
If You Are Sick
For the safety of our coworkers and community, we are asking members who are displaying even mild flu-like symptoms, including fever, cough and cold to stay home. Please! Not only is this common courtesy, it will help you recover more quickly and keep your immune system strong.
Please notify our staff if you are diagnosed with COVID-19 and have used our space in the past 30 days.
If You Have Traveled
If you have recently traveled to high-risk areas (China, Italy and other areas as updated by the CDC), you are being asked to self-quarantine for 14 days, even if you show no symptoms, to monitor for any symptoms of illness. This may be extended to those who have traveled to other areas where COVID-19 is spreading.
If you have recently traveled internationally or may have been exposed to people traveling from affected areas, please monitor yourself.
If you are showing any symptoms of illness we ask you to cancel your event with us and check with your healthcare provider.
Social distancing
We are strongly encouraging members and guests to avoid congregating in our common spaces and maintaining a distance of 6 feet. Our rooms can be set up to facilitate that distance with groups of 12 or less.
Thank you for putting the health and safety of our employees, members, guests and local community first! We are closely following the recommendations by the WHO and CDC and will provide updates as needed. In the meantime, thank you for helping continue to keep our welcoming community healthy and safe!
