President’s comments:

• Reminders:
  • Everyone must ALWAYS wear a face mask when they are inside a building.
  • No more than 3 people to a large room. Classes can have 4 (instructor and 3 students). Maintain a social distance of at least 6 ft.
  • Current associates can have door rights until Apr 1st if they have taken new member orientation and at least 1 red tool class.
  • We would like to bring back small classes. Please consider helping teach a class.
• Things that have not changed:
  • The space may NOT be used;
    • for social gatherings,
    • for group recreational activities,
    • as a substitute for a home office, work from home, or remote office.
  • In many cases, the sites will be used for mask, face shield, or other pandemic support activities, and those activities will be given priority.
  • We have provided hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes for use in the facilities and request that each member wipe down any parts of the facility used before and after their use.
  • If you are an associate member requiring access, please send an email to AugustAccess@makersmiths.orgso we can set you up on the August smart lock. We will need your full name, cell phone number, and the first date you plan to visit the space.
