Coronavirus Covid-19 Update
We received PCA National direction about their requirements around events from our President, Tom Gorsuch. He addressed three areas.
First is a requirement that each of us attending a PCA managed event, complete a Communicable Disease Waiver (CDW) (updated June 25, 2020) . This waiver is effective from signing until May 26, 2021. Our BGS Board is looking at what system we use to ensure forms are completed and filed. The second area gives us Guidelines for PCA Officers and Event Organizers. The final area gives Member Safety Guidelines. Please take time to read the documents as they will influence how our events will be held. If you have any questions or concerns please contact one of our Board Members. |
