COVID-19 Special Preparations:
All in-person event plans must be submitted for review by the COVID-19 Response Taskforce.

- Safety Plan - If your event involves a physical activity, as the leader and organizer of the group it is your responsibility to write out a plan for conducting the activity safely, outlining who will be responsible for the different aspects of the activity. If appropriate, communicate safety information to all participants and document that communication in your event file.
