A Statement about our Covid policy.
Due to the evolving nature of Covid, our policy regarding Covid has been evolving along with it.
Currently our policy is:
1. Although we encourage everyone to get the current vaccination, we will not be requiring it.
2. Masks at dances are optional, but are encouraged, especially for those who have any high risk factors .
3. We also recommend that you do a home COVID test prior to attending a dance, especially if you have been in a situation were you could have been exposed to Covid.
4. Do not come to a dance if you have any symptoms of Covid
We realize some of our dancers will not be satisfied with our policy. It's hoped that all dancers will consider both their own health and that of their partners when making their decisions.
