Covid-19 Policies and Procedures

---

The Technique Swim Academy will work closely with Harvard University to ensure that all protocols set forth by the CDC, Massachusetts Department of Early Childhood Education and the Boston Board of Health are enforced.  

There is an inherent risk of exposure to Covid-19 when in public despite our best efforts to mitigate the spread. Harvard is mask optional and we will do our best to move lunch and our informative discussions outdoors.  However, please determine your comfort level before signing up for our program.

The facility guidelines below will be strictly enforced for the safety of all swimmers and staff: 

• If a patron exhibits symptoms of COVID-19 while engaged in activity at Blodgett Pool, he/she will be immediately isolated and arrangements will be made for discharge. 

• Programming and spacing in the water and on land will adhere to local and state guidelines

• Patrons are asked to leave personal belongings on deck while swimming. Neither the Technique Swim Academy nor Harvard University are not responsible for these belongings. Please leave valuables at home.

• When swimming, patrons must follow Harvard staff directions.
   
• The Technique Swim Academy and Harvard ask patrons to stay home if not feeling well. (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/steps-when-sick.html)
