COVID-19 Precautions for Contactless Materials Exchange (if opting for curbside pick-up)
Based on guidance from our governing bodies*, follow these guidelines to safely exchange materials with Girl Scout members.
- Ensure that everyone who is participating in contactless materials exchange is feeling healthy and well.
- Carefully disinfect materials when received or purchased.
- Wear a mask and gloves when handling materials.
- Coordinate with members for contactless pick-up ahead of time, such as scheduling curbside/porch pick-ups or making time slotted appointments to avoid in-person interactions.
- Remind members to also wear proper protection gear, including but not limited to masks, for pick-up.
