All attendees must maintain physical distancing. 2. Leaders and participants will decide together whether or not to wear masks. 3. Anyone who feels sick or has been exposed to someone with COVID-19 should stay home. In the case that someone begins displaying symptoms during an outing, they will be escorted back to their vehicle to go home and rest or separated from others until they can go home.
