Any volunteer or visitor who will be in the building for more than 15 minutes or in a classroom will need to complete a health screener and have their temperature taken. Unvaccinated volunteers and visitors will be required to wear a mask while indoors. Appropriate records, including name, address, phone number, date, and time, will be kept of visitors entering and exiting the building in case there is a need to contact trace. Volunteers and visitors will not be allowed into the building if they do not follow the visitor procedures.
