Federal and State social distancing/gathering guidelines remain in place. Social distancing of six feet is necessary to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Staying physically active is one of the best ways to keep your mind and body healthy; however, we must do it safely.

The CDC, as a reminder, encourages reducing the spread of respiratory illnesses by practicing everyday preventative actions, including:

•             Stay at least 6 feet away from others
•             Wash your hands often for at least 20 seconds
•             Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth
•             Practice routine cleaning of frequently touched surfaces
•             If you are sick, running a temperature, or were recently exposed to COVID-19 STAY HOME
