In Person Programming to Increase at the Mary Ann Young Center Staff are excited to bring back more programs in May. All programs require: • • • • •
Advanced registration Wearing a mask that covers the nose and mouth at all times Temperature scan with a reading of 100.4° or less upon arrival Six feet social distancing Any other criteria given by staff at time of registration.
These procedures are in place to keep both participants and staff safe. Thank you in advance for following the protocols so that we can continue to offer programs for the community. We also encourage you to follow CDC recommendations and be fully vaccinated before participating in programming. Other precautions in place are the new air flow ionization system, new/improved furnace filters, tabletop Plexiglas barriers, sanitizer stations, and consistent sanitation procedures, all designed to help you feel safe. Staff are following state and federal guidelines so program start dates, times, and details are subject to change. Please be flexible as we navigate this process. Participants may enter the building up to 15 minutes prior to program start time, and must exit immediately following the program conclusion. Bathroom breaks should be taken as needed, not at program conclusion. Staff will let you know which doors to enter and exit, or the outdoor location designated, when you register.
