New re-Opening Policies (please see also the e-mail I sent out):

• All participants (Game Directors, Assistants and Players) must provide a photo id and proof of dual vaccinations as they enter the building.
• Temperature checks are not necessary in the moment.
• Players must self-certify that they are not experiencing any symptoms associated with Covid-19 or have come into recent contact with anyone who is tested positive with Covid-19. If you take care of yourself, everyone around you will be protected as well.
• You can only enter the building from the Main Door entrance beside the Library.
• Masks are required to be worn at all times.
• Wearing Gloves are optional.
• All bidding boxes are disinfected in the evening by the cleaning crew. You may use a bidding box provided by the club or you bring your own box. It will no longer be necessary to take the bidding box with you from table to table, unless you choose to do so.
• North will wipe the Bridgemate unit with a disinfecting wipe at the beginning of the game.
• Players may enter their own ACBL/Thornhill numbers and E/W can approve the scores.
• Cleaning supplies will be placed in a central location in the club and may be used to clean playing areas during the game.
• Hand Sanitizer will be available throughout the club as well as at each playing table. Please use these prior to playing and throughout the game.
• Boards and cards will be rotated and used only once a week.
• Coffee, tea, water are NOT available at this stage at the Club. Players may bring their own food and drink to the club, but there is absolutely NO eating at the playing tables inside the Hall. Note: the Kitchen is CLOSED.
• The Game start is the usual 1:00pm start time daily Monday-Wednesday only for now (Thursdays and Fridays will be added on later on as needed) . No Evening or Weekend Games are planned at this stage. Some Virtual Club Games start times will be modified to coexist with F2F Games played at the Club.
• The Hall Capacities are LIMITED and it will be first come first participate and late arrival players will be turned away when we reach each Hall Capacity!
• Players have to bring EXACT paper bill ($5) with you-NO change is given.
• This is your Club and volunteers are needed, please let me know if you can help?
• I would appreciate it if you let me know in advance if you are planning to come on Monday, September 27 and/or Tuesday, September 28 and/or Wednesday, September 29?
• In the first two weeks, each game will be classified as "Upgraded Club Championship" Games with very big Master Points awards! Please join ACBL to take advantage of their generosity!
•  In addition, a total of 8 "Club Championship" Games for every session, till the end of this year 2021, will be used with more Master Points than a regular game.We are looking forward to welcoming you back to our wonderful club and resume some face to face bridge!
• Clubs are already opened across the United States and now it is Canada's Turn!
• Based on my recent experience in the US (where Face Masks are optional), we are here more careful and consider the safety of the players is beyond any compromises, Face Masks are to be worn all the times like when you go for Grocery Shopping!

• Of course, any helpful suggestions are welcome. Please forward this email to others not my master list, thanks.
