Health & Safety Commitment
Our nation and our planet are experiencing a health crisis not seen in over a century. The direct toll on humanity from loss of life due to COVID-19, and indirectly due to economic and other factors, will be felt for years to come. It will require a concerted effort and commitment to personal responsibility by every person to stop the spread of coronavirus and mitigate its devastating impact.
In voluntarily participating in the use of the 1ST SUMMIT ARENA and North Central Recreation Center (“NCRC”), on behalf of myself, and on behalf of my minor children, using the 1ST SUMMIT ARENA/NCRC facilities and the ice sheet, I understand and accept that such use by me or my minor children is conditioned upon agreeing to abide by a set of guidelines designed for the personal and collective health and safety of myself, my minor children and all those who are included in this use.
