🎃 HALLOWEEN NIGHTS OF LIGHTS 2021 | Richmond Hill, Ontario

Halloween nights of lights, Richmond hill, Ontario 2021

clarify the in-person registration of 55+ table tennis at McConaghy Centre.

 I like to clarify the in-person registration of 55+ table tennis at McConaghy Centre.

This service is offered to help only those who are not able to register online at home. You should note that:

(1) It is not possible to use this service to "jump the queue" and hope to secure a spot in a popular time slot in advance before the day opened for registration for that particular time slot. 

(2) You should not try to ask the staff at the centre to register for you if you are able to do it yourself unless you encounter a problem. The centres are very short handed and we must not over burden the staff with unnecessary extra work.

There is one more point that I like to bring to your attention. If, for some unforeseeable  circumstances, you cannot attend a session booked, please do withdraw it to free up that spot for somebody else. You can phone McConaghy Centre to withdraw if you do not know how to do so.

我需要解釋一下親身到 McConaghy 長者中心登記打球的服務。請注意以下幾點

(1) 此服務是為了幫助不能(不熟習電腦運作或沒有電腦)自己登記 的球友，不可能用此服務搶先在預定開始登記的日子之前取得比較受歡迎的時段。

(2) 如果你能自己上網登記，請不要利用中心的員工替你登記,以免加添員工不必須的工作量，中心已經有嚴重的人手短缺情況。

(3) 如你不能在預約好的時間到場打球，請儘早上網取消，好讓其他的球友取得這時段，如果你不知道如何上網取消，可打電話到長者中心取消。

在早前的電郵中，我說需要時可于週日親身到長者中心求助, "週日"雖然可解作 平日或工作日，但亦可解作星期日，故在此澄清原意是星期一至星期五。

烈治文山市的長者 Hello, 55+ Table Tennis Players,

以下是 Jennifer and Kim ( 她們主理一切 烈治文山市的長者活動 ) 給大家的電郵。內容如下

Jennifer 與我都明白登記打球是有難度的，如任何會員想打球卻無法用電腦登記的話，可于週日早上九時至下午四時直接到 McConaghy 長者中心登記，但必須帶同疫苗接種證明和身份證明及表明 無疫症徵候或接觸, 方可進入中心。

為求安全地容納多些會員打球，由本月二十五號起，我們將全部在運動場內打乒乓球的名額加添兩個，但大家就必須合作，輪流打球，以便所有在場的會員都有機會打球。我們知道這個登記打球的方法有難度，不過這是跟從安省及約克區的健康指引而定，是為了確保大家安全。

無論在任何情況下，大家都不能開門讓沒有登記的會員進入打球場所，違例者可喪失會員身份及打球的權利。

我們會继續在疫情下改善打球的程序，在此先多謝大家的耐心及諒解，請繼續安全地打球

Kim and Jennifer

Hello, 55+ Table Tennis Players,

Welcome back!  It’s great to see you.

 

Jennifer and I understand that registering for table tennis can be challenging.  If you know of anyone who wants to play but can’t register on a computer, please tell them to come in person to McConaghy on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m..  They will need to show proof of vaccination, photo ID and do a Covid screening to enter the building.

 

In order to accommodate more players safely, we will be increasing the maximum number of people allowed to play per session.  As of Monday, October 25, we have added 2 more spots to all of the table tennis played in gyms.  The addition of 2 more players per gym session means that everyone will be required to rotate during the two hours so that everyone has a chance to play. 

 

We recognize that the process to register before playing can be difficult but we have put these measures in place as per the guidelines from Ontario & York Region Public Health for your safe return to play. 

Under no circumstances may you open doors to let non-registered players enter the gym.  Anyone who does this will risk losing their membership and the opportunity to play table tennis.

 

We will continue to look for ways to simplify the process to play as we move through this pandemic.  Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Please continue to play safe,

 

Kim & Jennifer

Amendment to Provincial Proof of Vaccination Requirements

We are writing to notify you about additional instructions from York Region Public Health related to the Ontario government’s proof of vaccination requirements.

Effective October 1, 2021 further York Region Public Health measures require that all visitors to certain City facilities (i.e recreational facilities) age 12 years and older must show proof of being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and identification or a valid medical exemption. This means that youth under 18 actively participating in organized sport will no longer be exempt.

To enter, visitors must:

Show proof of COVID-19 vaccination (print or digital)

Show valid ID (e.g., health card, driver’s license)

Complete the screening form (RichmondHill.ca/Screening)

Note additional health and safety measures are in place once inside, including face-covering/mask requirements and physical distancing. If you are feeling unwell, please do not visit a facility.

Exceptions

Proof of vaccination is not required for children under the age of 12.

Medical exceptions

Individuals who cannot receive the vaccine due to medical exemptions are required to present identification and appropriate written documentation from a physician or registered nurse stating the individual is exempt for a medical reason.

Parents/guardians, spectators ages 12 and over, and all other visitors who do not meet the exemption criteria above must provide proof of vaccination and show ID before entering. Where adult participation and/or supervision is required, the adult accompanying the individual must show proof of vaccination and ID before entering.

All visitors, regardless of exemption, must still complete the online screening form at RichmondHill.ca/Screening before entering and must adhere to other health and safety requirements when inside the facility.

Those who wish to withdraw from a program can contact recreation@richmondhill.ca

Where applicable, you are encouraged to speak with your sports leagues and organizations for any additional requirements they may have implemented.

The health and safety of our staff and visitors is a priority for the City. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

For more information on the provincial proof of vaccination guidelines, visit the Ontario government's Frequently Asked Questions page or the Proof of Vaccination/Exemptions page.

Additional Health and Safety Measures

Face masks or coverings are required in all enclosed public spaces. Exceptions include people who cannot wear a mask for medical reasons, children under the age of five or those who require accommodation in accordance with the Ontario Human Rights Code. Learn more at York.ca/MandatoryMasks.

Signage is posted throughout facilities, including floor markers, to reinforce physical distancing and other health and safety guidelines.

Plexiglas barriers have been installed at front counter service areas and hand sanitizer stations will be available at all entrances.
