Shadybrook Policies

Welcome Back to Shadybrook!

Shadybrook follows CDC recommendations with the desire to insure the health and safety of our Shadybrook members and friends.

The CDC currently recommends that masks be optional for counties in low to moderate risk categories. Cuyahoga County currently falls into these categories.

Therefore, as of September 7, 2022,

 

Face coverings are optional for all participants (for in-person programs)

Shadybrook also recommends these considerations as we return to in-person programs and events:

•   Gain consent before touching or hugging others.

•   Be mindful of the safety of the whole community.

•   Refrain from coming to Shadybrook programs and events in person if you are not feeling well and/or have been exposed to COVID 19.

Shadybrook’s intention is to comply with the policies set forth by the CDC and the Ohio Department of Health, and we will update as changes occur.  Thank you for your support and flexibility in these unprecedented times.
