As Club reopens, there will be changes, safety precautions and new procedures to follow every day. We have been working in collaboration and with direction from state and local health departments. These changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, will significantly impact how our clubs will operate and the number of youth we will be able to serve as we reopen. Please review the following information carefully.
SAFETY PROCEDURES YOU CAN EXPECT
Safety is the number one priority of Boys & Girls Clubs of Southwest Washington, and we are doing everything possible to keep children, staff, and volunteers protected from the COVID-19 virus. We continue to monitor all updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Washington State Department of Health, and Clark County Public Health for updated information. We are advising all staff, families, and youth to take precautions recommended by the Center for Disease Control.
Group Sizes
In compliance with guidelines from our state and local health departments, Clubs will operate with a 2:8 ratio (two staff members to every eight youth), limiting groups to 10 people or fewer. Groups will stay in separate program areas, and Club staff will be utilizing masks and gloves. Youth will receive an overview of safety information daily, as well as strict guidelines for hand washing and sanitation procedures.
Check-in and drop-off procedures
Each day all members, staff, family and guests entering the building will be required to comply with check-in safety measures, including but not limited to temperature checks, a verbal health screening, and sanitation procedures.
