Announcements

This Omicron thing is scary, and it is here or about to be.

We need to be aggressive per masking. Please get a good mask for use at the club (N95, KN95, K94). And be sure it completely covers your nose and mouth.

We are trying to keep the place open. Please. Let’s see if we can get through this.

Here are some sites to search for quality masks:
