Athletic Event Spectator Guidelines- Week One Update New Spectator Policies The Gilbert School had an outstanding first week of sports. We may not have won all the athletic events but our parents have certainly been winners by willingly following the Covid guidelines. Thank you to all of our Gilbert parents for following all the Covid policies. The sooner we can get this behind us the sooner we can get back to normal. We still are not at a point where we can let our guard down, but as we move forward and things continue in a positive direction, we will be able to gradually implement discretionary increases to our spectator policy. Beginning with our home Volleyball game on Tuesday October 13th we will allow two parents per athlete into the gym. The parents will receive a special pass that allows them access to the gym for Volleyball games. This policy is only for our home parents. NO visiting fans at this point in time. We ask that the parents enter through the gym back door at the top of the ramp. We will post a sign to clarify the proper entrance. All persons in the gym are required to wear a DPH approved mask (no gators, scarfs or single ply material) and to maintain social distancing at all times. Those who do not comply will be asked to leave. Attendance at all outdoor games, meets, and events will be by personal invitation only. Specifically, only parents or legal guardians of student-athletes will be allowed to attend the contests. Each athlete has been given two passes that are good for the outdoor fall season. Everyone in attendance at outdoor athletic events must properly wear a mask and keep a proper distance from others (spouses not included). Those who do not follow these requests will be asked to leave. We ask that you understand these decisions are made in the interest of keeping our students and our community healthy and we appreciate your support of your student-athlete and The Gilbert School Athletic Department. Please contact the Gilbert Athletic Director (morganb@gilbertschool.org) with any questions.
