In addition to the regular expectations for safety and well-being for all volunteers, we have included a list of COVID-related precautions and expectations for all staff and volunteers:
- Personal protective equipment (PPE) is highly encouraged for all staff and volunteers while volunteering in the Park.
- Keeping a social distance of at least 6 feet is required for participants not living in the same household.
- Masks are required on federal lands when social distancing cannot be maintained.
- Anyone not feeling well should not enter the Park or participate in any Park-related programs.
- Participants are recommended to supply their own gloves (we will have gloves available), close-toed shoes, water bottles and water*, snacks/food (as needed). Tools such as garbage bags, rakes, shovels, etc. will be provided by the C&O Canal Trust.
* Please note: Due to the increased risk of spreading infection, we will not be providing any water or other drinks during Canal Community Days 2021. Please be sure to bring enough liquids for everyone in your group, at least one quart per person.
