                          Many programs end up cancelling for lack of
                          registration, only to have folks call in the day it’s to
                          start. Please try to register a minimum of five days
                          before a course is scheduled to start, to ensure it runs.
                          This gives the instructor time to prepare and allows
                          the Recreation Department to organize all the details;

                          R. BONNIE HENRY stated on May 16, 2020 that “COVID-19 is new for all of us”. We
                          at The City of Rossland are responding to the direction from our public health
                          officials and governing bodies to open our facilities and offer services to our
                      community cautiously, with the safety of our staff and community being our priority.

                      We cannot be certain that a person (of any age) will not contract SARS-CoV-2 at one of
                      our facilities and/or while participating in one of our programs, but we have taken the
                      steps required to develop our COVID-19 Safety Plan, Policies and Procedures, which is
                      available for your review at http://rossland.ca/covid-19-information-updates.

                      We have implemented our COVID-19 Safety Plan and will be applying our policies and
                      procedures, but the risk remains that a COVID 19 outbreak could occur despite our
                      best efforts. We are focussing on distancing standards within programs and facilities,
                      decreasing instructor to participant ratios, cleaning protocols, training leaders/staff on
                      COVID considerations, implementing contact free registration, payment and check in,
                      implementing contact tracing and ensuring signage is posted in our facilities for users.

                      As a reminder, please do not participate or allow your child to participate in any of our
                      activities or programs if you or they have any of the following symptoms.
                      Key symptoms of COVID-19 include:             Other symptoms may include:
                      ✔ Fever or chills                             ✔ Sore throat
                      ✔ Cough                                       ✔ Loss of appetite
                      ✔ Loss of sense of smell or taste             ✔ Extreme fatigue or tiredness
                      ✔ Difficulty breathing                        ✔ Headache
                                                                    ✔ Body aches
                                                                    ✔ Nausea or vomiting
                                                                    ✔ Diarrhea

                      Lastly, it is vital that we all be calm and compassionate
                      throughout this pandemic. Any person who exhibits any
                      aggression towards our staff or any other person in one of
                      our facilities and/or programs will be asked to leave and not
                      return. For more information, please visit http://rossland.ca/
