COVID-19 Updates

Effective October 7, 2020, a facial covering will be required for everyone inside our facilities except:

• Children under the age of 5
• Individuals who have trouble breathing, especially during accelerated physical exertion activities
• Those with medical conditions that prevent wearing of a face covering
• Those who have mental health conditions, sensory sensitivities or developmental disabilities
• While swimming, using aquatics facilities, or showering
• On-duty lifeguards
• While eating or drinking
• When an individual is speaking while leading an activity as long as they remain 8 feet from others

Members are encouraged to inform Y staff upon arrival if they qualify for an exception to the state of WI emergency order. If a participant removes their mask during physical activity, Y staff will assume they are exempt from the state-wide mandate. While staff may offer a mask to all participants, they can decline that offer based on their exemption.

If you fall under a state-wide exemption listed above, you will be REQUIRED to wear a face covering while entering and exiting the building, throughout the building, throughout the facility in common areas and anytime you are within 8 feet of someone else. 

We ask that all members respect the privacy of others. Please assume participants without facial coverings are exempt from the state-wide mandate. 

We encourage, but do not require, those outside of our facilities (athletic fields, parking lots, etc.) to:

• Wear face coverings except children under the age of 5
• Maintain an appropriate distance, six feet or more, from all other parties
• Limit contact to infrequent or incidental movement with fitness activities

Thank you for your ongoing cooperation in the keeping our community safe and healthy.
