COVID-19 and Communicable Illness Warning.

An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public space where people are present. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”), senior citizens and those with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable. By visiting our On-Site Facilities, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and any other communicable illness. Some images shown throughout the Site do not represent current operational guidelines or health and safety measures, including social distancing and face coverings.
