COVID GUIDELINES
COVID GUIDELINES
These new guidelines will be effective from June 14, 2021, until the board votes to remove or change them based on CDC and State guidelines.
MONTHLY MEETINGS: Wearing masks will be highly encouraged (but optional) while attending our indoor monthly guild meetings. Our guild meetings will still be jointly broadcast on Zoom, and you may choose to attend online. Water bottles/beverages will now be permitted.
SKG BOARD MEETINGS: These will continue to remain on Zoom for now.
EXTRA GUILD EVENTS: Events sponsored by the guild will require all participants to show they have been fully vaccinated at least two weeks before the event. Non-Vaccinated individuals will not be allowed to attend these events. This includes the yearly retreat, and any other guild sponsored field trips. The guild cannot provide proper distancing during these events that may include working in close proximity and eating without masks. There is no way to ensure everyone will remain safe without proper vaccinations.
