4. MEETINGHOUSE If you need to go into the meetinghouse, enter and exit only by the Elliot Room door for now. Wash your hands or use the hand-sanitizer, and limit your time indoors.

Contact the Officers and Music Director if you have questions.
4. BROADBROOKS HOUSE If you wish to return to Broadbrooks House (offices), call the Secretary from Mondays – Thursdays by 3:30 pm to make an appointment. Staff, officers, Board and Committee chairs may enter – only two at a time — observing health and safety protocol. Take your temperatures at home. Park, mask, enter by the parking lot door, use the hand-sanitizer provided or wash your hands, and limit your time in the house. Stay out of the Secretary’s office (and other staff offices) or speak with the Secretary if she is present from outside the half-door. Leave by the porch door, and return to your car or ride.

6. PARISH HOUSE The Parish House remains closed until further notice. It is not recommended that you meet indoors, if at all possible; otherwise, open all windows and doors. Do not turn on the air-con as it simply circulates the air.
