COVID-19 SAFETY PROCEDURES
- NEW! BC Vaccine Card – proof of vaccination required upon entry for spectators. Please bring your QR code passport (on your phone or printed) + government issued I.D.
- Participants can show up to class at least 15 minutes before start (9:45pm). Please give enough time for the instructor to complete daily verbal screening, attendance, and to complete any required forms.
- Participants must complete a health check, waiver, Assumption of Risk Form, and Declaration of Compliance form on the first day of class. Failure to do so means participants will not be permitted entry.
- Participants 5 years and older must wear a non-medical mask until they are in situated in their designated workout area, to remove during activity, and to replace if going to the washroom or leaving the program.
- We ask that participants avoid aggregating in entryways. If you’d like to catch-up before or after class, outside is safest, while maintaining distance.
- Participants must use the hand sanitizing station at the front entrance but are also encouraged to wash their hands before and after the activity.
- Hand hygiene and physical distancing will be encouraged.
- Handshaking & hugging is discouraged.
- Each participant will have their own equipment (e.g. ball)
- Instructor will clean high-touch surfaces before and after the start of class (e.g. door handles, chairs).
- Instructor will manage complete record-keeping and report daily attendance and any incidents to the Recreation Coordinator.
- Participants must stay home if they show any symptoms (e.g. cough, fever, fatigue).
- Class may be cancelled by coaches if they show symptoms.
- In the event of a participant or coach showing symptoms during the program, the participant will be isolated, removed from the program, a parent/guardian called for pick-up and recommendation to seek medical advice as required. Beyond daily screening, is not up to our staff to do temperature checks, testing or contact tracing.
Staying safe is a shared responsibility. These procedures and our combined efforts help to lower the risk of spreading COVID-19, but there is still a risk.
Please do your best to abide by these new procedures to ensure we can recreate safely and respectfully together on Haida Gwaii.
