March 16, 2020

**Please note this blog was written on March 16, 2020.

We are closely monitoring the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and World Health Organization statements regarding the coronavirus. Our industry is regulated by strict local, state and federal guidelines. In addition to these guidelines, we have put the following steps in place in an effort to best take care of our team and our guests health and well-being. We will continue to adjust our behavior and operation as the situation evolves.

OUR GUESTS
We kindly request that if you have traveled through an airport in the last two weeks, have a cold, a sniffle, a cough, fever or are feeling unwell, please stay home. We are waiving all cancellation fees during this time of heightened personal responsibility

EMPLOYEES
We are taking the temperature of our employees prior to work to ensure they don’t have a fever and we are insisting employees with cold or flu like symptoms not come to work.

We have trained our staff on cough etiquette and proper handwashing procedures and require they wash and moisturize their hands every hour to keep their hands clean and healthy.

We reinforce training and the steps we are taking to prevent the spread of the coronavirus at daily meetings and on our communication boards which are prominently displayed in each department.

We have enforced a no-handshake and no-hug policy when greeting each other and our guests.
