BFSC COVID-19 Policy:
Updated June 20, 2021
Barefoot Sailing Club wishes to mitigate the risk of COVID-19 transmission at its events. The safety of our members and their guests are our primary concern during the pandemic. All skippers and their crew/guests should follow the CDC, State of Georgia and local guidance, such as use of face masks, hand-washing and social distancing, especially when on land.
-
Racing and Cruising has resumed with Skippers determining how many and which crew are welcome aboard their boats (e.g. some may require masking, others may require fully vaccinated crew).
-
Club sponsored social events are slowly resuming in outdoor venues. Members should assess their personal risk before attending any gatherings.
-
All Skippers and Crew will sign the COVID-19 risk waiver of liability before leaving the dock.
The COVID-19 risk waiver is here, and should be signed, dated and returned to the BFSC Vice-Commodore at tbeachem(at)synamedia.com
