COVID/Surveys/January Town Hall/Shout Outs and More
From Christine Baker
Hi Everyone,
THANK YOU
Thank you for all the team work during the busy time, we had instructors helping each other, instructors running carpets, instructors fitting boots. You all were everywhere, in addition to teaching kids, adults, families, sometimes at similar levels, sometimes not so much. We appreciate the extra days, the long hours and the flexibility that was shown. It was a busy week and with your efforts it was a successful one too.
COVID
Thank you for adjusting to our new COVID policies. Here is some information on masks:
Here is an article on why cloth masks might not be enough. We have KN95 and N94 masks on order, please let us know if you would like one. A surgical mask with a cloth mask covering it is also a good option. Please consider using something more than a cloth mask with you are spending time indoors and not actively eating and drinking.
Here is an article on KN95 masks and that they are multi-use masks, that can be used until they no longer fit appropriately or they are soiled.
Please let us know if you have questions, concerns, or recommendations for us and our COVID policies.
