OLD - Pack 223 Current COVID Guidelines

Last updated 3/4/2022:

Hi Everyone,

We have reviewed the latest epidemiological information for Williamson county, and given the large drop in community spread (about 5% the number of new cases as a month ago) we are going to roll back our enhanced Pack-required protocols.

As always, these guidelines are subject to change. We will continue to monitor as we always have and will adjust as needed in the future.

Please remember, our first priority is to provide a safe and healthy environment for Scouting and to protect the community we live in. That provides the basis for all the fun and learning that we get to do as Scouts, and that is why we take health and safety considerations so seriously, often going go above and beyond what is required in other organizations. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to me directly.

Pack 223 Revised COVID Safety Guidelines:

Events:

- Indoor events are allowed.

- Outdoor events are allowed.

Masks:

- may be worn at any time, but are optional as a rule

- may be required by Leaders, at their discretion

- are recommended when:

-- meeting indoors

-- interacting with the public

General:

- Practice good hygiene practices (covering coughs, washing hands, etc.).

- Do not attend events if you are sick.

Background

For those of you who are curious, the primary metric we have used in determining protocols is the 7-day daily average of new COVID cases. Below is a recent summary of that data.
