COVID-19 

 

The Elkhorn Yacht Club leadership is continually working to ensure the safety of all Club members. With the rapid spread of COVID-19, we are taking precautions and direction from the orders of the County of Monterey Health​ Department, the State of California, and the guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). As a result, we have made a number of changes as follows.

 

Social distancing and wearing masks are a requirement. Practice social distancing by putting space between yourself and others. Face masks are required by ordinance on all parts of the property (annex, workshop, etc). Seating in any area is limited to 6 persons per table/seating arrangement. It is a requirement to wear a mask at all times when not seated or eating. This extends to all outside areas.
