COVID-19 Policy

Travel/Transportation: Use extreme caution if traveling with your troop and follow transportation guidelines.

  • It is strongly recommended to adopt a zero-transportation policy (no carpooling girls) until the county, town or region is safely past its final phase of re-opening. Until then, individual parents drop off and pick up their own girls from meetings, events, and trips.
  • Once a county or region is fully past its final re-opening stage, carpooling may resume as necessary with precautions.
  • For example: - Girls and adults should wear masks when inside of a motor vehicle - Keep car window opened, at least slightly, to circulate fresh air.
  • Consider the personal situation of your girls:
    • Do they live with an immune-compromised person that they can put at risk? If so, perhaps make other accommodations for her with her parents.
    • Have the families been isolating, and free from contagion? If so the troop may essentially be a safe bubble.
  • Remember, sustained contact within less than six (6) feet for longer than ten (10) minutes within an enclosed area creates a high risk for virus transmission, so be very careful with carpool decisions.
  • CDC guidance for rideshares and drivers for hire may be helpful as an additional reference when evaluating motor vehicle transportation or carpooling: Ride Shares and Drivers for Hire
