Mohawk Volleyball for Monday, Sept. 13, 2021 has been postponed until a later date due to Covid 19 issues.
I just wanted to remind everyone that IF you are placed in quarantine, what exactly that means.
By definition it means: a state, period, or place of isolation in which people that have arrived from elsewhere or been exposed to infectious or contagious disease are placed.
People that are placed in quarantine are to isolate themselves at home for the duration of the quarantine unless they begin to show signs or symptoms from Covid 19 and are needing to seek medical attention for Covid 19 or other medical emergencies.
It DOES NOT mean going to shopping, ball games, the golf course, or to the parking lot beside the tracks, etc. Please be aware that people are watching and you could be at risk of getting others sick. So, I please urge you to stay at home and isolate yourself during your quarantine time. Reach out to others if you have personal needs, people in this community are more than willing to help. If a person or persons are violating the quarantine policy it could lead to further disciplinary action. Thank you for your cooperation. Let's work on keeping everyone safe and everyone protected. Others before self!
Thanks again for your cooperation!
