    • Cough or shortness of breath?
    • fever?
    • loss of taste or smell?
  • You are at an increased risk for COVID-19 if you are:
    • • 65 years or older, have underlying lung/asthma conditions, have heart complications, suffer from diabetes, liver disease, severe obesity or are otherwise immune-compromised
    • Your health is your responsibility
  • We reserve the right to institute further COVID-19 screening to ensure guests are not endangering others.
  • Any Guest who has had symptoms or exposure will not be allowed in Horizons Edge.
  • If a symptomatic/exposed guest is a driver for another guest, they will be asked to wait in their closed vehicle until their passenger’s activities are completed.
  • Guests will be invited to use hand sanitizer stations upon entry and exit of the building. Sanitizing stations will be provided near the main entrances.

What’s your plan if someone attending has tested positive for COVID-19?

We are communicating to event owners, partner organizations, renters, and those who register online, that anyone who has tested positive with COVID-19 is not allowed to enter Horizons Edge until they have been released by their doctor and diagnosed as “recovered.”

Anyone who is presenting symptoms of illness, or answers screening questions upon entry in a way that gives us concern, will not be admitted to Horizons Edge, as a way of protecting every other guest at the venue, and preventing exposures and spread.

Will you be testing players from out of state?

In most states, out of state travel will not occur until a later phase of reopening. At that time, Horizons Edge will work with event organizers to institute standards above and beyond the minimum requirements to promote participant and guest safety.
