The pandemic continues to be of concern for all.  We must continue to follow the guidance of our local health officials.  Please check the health department section of your county’s website and follow their directions.  Safety is our #1 priority and until the trend of positive cases drastically decreases, we need to be vigilant about our Scout meetings and activities.  We appreciate your understanding of any necessary adjustments in the interest of health of safety.

Key points to protect everyone from COVID-19 as following:

  • Clean your hands often, either with soap and water for 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer.
  • Maintain physical distancing of at least six feet between those who are not members of the same family or living unit.
  • Cover your mouth and nose with a mask when around others.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces daily.
