aples Senior Center has been physically open at 30% capacity since August 2, after having closed its doors in March 2020. Of course, as we all know, we are in the midst of a resurgence of the COVID19 virus. To protect our members and clients, who are among the most vulnerable, we have put the following protocols in place: • Everyone entering the building must be masked. • Temperatures are taken. • A questionnaire regarding potential exposure, health and travel is presented and answered each time a member or client comes into the building. • Social distancing is practiced in each program. • The space is cleaned between each program. • Members preregister for programs, and after a program is over, they leave the building.

Prentiss C. Higgins, Naples Senior Center Board Chair; Dr. Jaclynn Faffer, Naples Senior Center President / CEO; and Jay H. Baker, Naples Senior Center Board Trustee, unveil Naples Senior Center new building sign. new building groundbreaking event for Nov. 12. It will be a busy day with several events, embracing key donors to the capital campaign as well as the general community. These exciting events have been a long time coming! We thank our team of professionals for getting us to this point. And we thank members, volunteers and clients for their patience. Our dream is closer to becoming a reality.

• All staff and volunteers must be vaccinated, with proof of vaccination on file. • All vendors who come into the building must show proof of vaccination. I know you all join me in looking forward to the day when COVID-19 is a distant memory.
