Bunny at The Saturday Club

The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited and/or limited the congregation of groups of people. ​There is an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 in any public or private place where people are present.

In accordance with recommended guidance from federal, state and local authorities, The Saturday Club (the “Club”) has put in place preventative measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19; however, the Club cannot guarantee that attendance at a meeting or event at the Club’s Premises and/or at a location other than the Club’s Premises (“Offsite Meeting or Event”), will not increase the likelihood of COVID-19 exposure or infection. ​For that reason, until further notice, members and prospective members may fulfill all membership requirements, including monthly meeting attendance and credit requirements, virtually, and in-person attendance is neither expected nor required. Any member, prospective member, or event guest who willingly chooses to enter onto the Club’s Premises for any reason, including, but not limited to, attending a meeting or event, and/or attends in-person any Offsite Meeting or Event associated with and/or sponsored by the Club, including but not limited to, committee meetings, book club, or Ways and Means fundraising events, Community Outreach activities, or Membership gatherings, voluntarily assumes the risk that she or he may become exposed and/or infected by COVID-19 and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability and/or death.

The circumstances regarding COVID-19 are changing day to day and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s and the Pennsylvania Department of Health’s guidelines are regularly modified and/or updated as a result. The Club presumes that all members, prospective members, and event guests will accept full responsibility for familiarizing themselves with the most recent updates and will make an individual assessment of the associated risks of attending an in-person meeting or event at the Club or Offsite. Your decision to enter the premises of the Club, or to attend in-person an Offsite Meeting or Event associated with or sponsored by the Club, is made voluntarily and with full knowledge that you are accepting all risks associated with COVID-19, including illness, injury, permanent disability, and death, and that the Club shall not be responsible if you contract the virus.
