COVID-19 Guidelines 9/8/20

The Ann Arbor Ice Cube and its tenant organizations will also restrict attendance at sessions, based upon recommendations from the CDC, Dept. of Health and the State of Michigan. When you visit the Cube, you should be PREPARED and AWARE of what awaits you:

● DO plan to wear a mask or facial covering at all times inside the Cube(INCLUDING ON ICE per EO 2020- 176).

● DO refer to a2ice3.com and specific guidelines outlining policies and procedures that may change.

● DO plan to arrive at the Cube NO MORE THAN 20 MINUTES prior to your scheduled program so we can control the number of people inside the facility.

● DO plan to have your body temperature checked by Cube staff at the main entrance (over 100.4º will be turned away for the day)

● DO make sure that no one in your group has a fever, dry cough, or other symptoms of COVID-19.

● DO plan to drop off your child or for only ONE chaperone to accompany inside the Cube.

● DO leave valuables and extra belongings at home or in your vehicle as we will no longer maintain a Lost & Found.

● DO plan to register and pay online for your program.

● DO plan to boldly and clearly label your water bottle.

● DO make sure that everyone in your party clearly understands social distancing, especially children.

● DO use hand sanitizers located throughout the Cube and wash your hands frequently with soap & water for 20 seconds, especially after using the restroom, before eating and after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing.

● DO avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

● DO plan to arrive as dressed as possible to get on the ice to minimize locker room time, if necessary at all.

● Be prepared to exit the Cube as quickly as possible in no more than 20 minutes after your ice time so that Cube staff can promptly clean spaces and surfaces for others.

● NO OUTSIDE FOOD ALLOWED The Ann Arbor Ice Cube is taking the following precautions for your safety:

● We are working to stagger arrival times for programming to minimize gathering in common areas.

● We are adjusting programming to limit the number of individuals on the ice at one time.

● We are marking or relocating floors, benches and bleacher areas to designate 6’ spacing from others.

● We have installed several hand sanitizers throughout the facility and replaced the restroom hand dryers with paper towel dispensers.

● We are cleaning and sanitizing surfaces, rental skates, restrooms, locker rooms, player benches, penalty boxes, dasher board tops, and all other potential touch points no less than once hourly.

● Our employees are receiving specific training in COVID-19 prevention protocols.

● Our employees are wearing masks when not on the ice surfaces, practicing social distancing, undergoing daily medical screening and frequently washing hands. Even with these precautions in place, The Ann Arbor Ice Cube cannot eliminate all risks associated with COVID-19, nor can we guarantee that transmission will not occur. By choosing to join us inside the Cube, guests freely assume the risk that they may contract COVID-19 despite the Cube’s best efforts to provide the cleanest and safest environment possible.
