ATTENDANCE CAPACITY UPDATE AND GOOD NEWS FROM PEN GLENN MILLER
Fellow Rotarians, As the summer approaches, and the rules surrounding Covid restrictions continue to ease, we anticipate a much fuller return to "normal" for our club! Following Memorial Day weekend, capacity limits for indoor gatherings are no longer restricted by the state. The Country Club of York will follow suit as a result, although lunch will continue for now to be plated rather than buffet for additional safety reasons. Therefore, beginning in June, there will be no limit on the number of Rotarians who can attend in person at the club! Further, "GUESTS" will also now be permitted and encouraged!
Until we can return to a buffet style luncheon, the reservation system will need to continue. Please continue to make your lunch reservations on line through ClubRunner before the deadline, and if you have not yet returned to joining us in person, consider doing so. It would be great to welcome everyone back!
