As our state begins to ready itself for the end of the Stay-at-Home Order, we are finalizing our plans to reopen our services In order to protect the health and safety of our guests and staff, we will be reopening both sites with limited services only prioritizing our shower and laundry services.
What to expect:
In order to limit the number of persons on-site, guests will be asked to form a line outside of each location with six feet of distance marked to encourage social distancing. Staff will walk the line and sign guests up for services needed.
We will be administering temperature checks for all entrants into either site. Anyone with a temperature above 100.4 will not be granted entry into the site and will be referred to the nearest hospital. Cleared guests will be given a mask and escorted into the facility.
