Posted Mar 17, 2020 2:46 AM

The Great Bend Recreation Commission will close the GB Rec Center/ City Auditorium, GB Activity Center and cancel recreation programs and activities scheduled for the week of March 16-March 22.

The Recreation Commission is monitoring the latest information and guidelines provided by Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) on the COVID-19 virus. Essential employees will report to work sites during this period for staff education on proper procedures and guidelines as required by KDHE to limit the spread of COVID-19 virus.

As our facilities reopen, we encourage general preventive measures for everyone attending the GBRec facilities and programs and to take proper precautions to help prevent the illness transmission.

· Stay home when sick

· Proper and frequent hand washing

· Cover mouth and nose when sneezing and coughing

· Avoid contact with people who are sick

Any updates will be posted through local media sources, through our Facebook page, Rain Out line and GBRec Website: www.greatbendrec.com .
