For those of you with a COVID policy regarding testing (particularly re:
performers "testing in" to be on stage unmasked) - please consider your
lead time and possibilities for contingency action. We'll be changing the
policy of our dance due to our experience tonight.
Our caller (me!) tested upon arrival at the hall. Entered masked, helped
get set up going and then discovered a positive result. Thirty minutes to
the first dance, folks already en route. Best efforts made, the dance was
able to happen without me but just barely.
We will be requiring this optional testing now to happen within a specified
period which will provide for sufficient time to react appropriately before
the event set up commences.
