YOUR SAFETY AND HEALTH ARE OUR TOP PRIORITY

To set your mind at ease, we want you to know we have been monitoring events associated with influenza, RSV and the Covid virus.

We are planning to follow the CDC guidelines, and knowing the situation is constantly fluid, we will incorporate any new and updated measures as we approach our retreat later next month.

We’re continuously noting recommendations on ways to remain healthy,

all of this with the express purpose of making a wise decision about what we can do specifically

to reach the goal of providing a safe environment for our Vivi Magoo family.

Proper hand-washing technique – hand sanitizer – equipment disinfecting – masking – social distancing

are all ways to guard against the spread of any infection

and are good practices for each of us to follow each winter during cold and flu season.

NEVER BE SO BUSY AS NOT TO THINK OF OTHERS.  Mother Theresa

Rest assured, we are planning to do everything in our power to keep everyone safe and healthy during our workshop.

We can’t guarantee anything, but we will do our utmost best to provide classroom environments that focus on health and well-being.
