The health and safety of our customers, staff and volunteers is of utmost importance during this challenging time.
The Provincial Premier has just declared a state of emergency in Ontario as COVID-19 constitutes a danger of major proportions! As such, medical health officers and the Premiers Office has ordered the closure of all facilities providing indoor recreation programs, all public libraries, all private schools, all licensed childcare centres, all theatres, cinemas and concert venues and all bars and restaurants except to provide takeout food and delivery. This is effective immediately.
It is now time for the Grafton Legion to close its doors until April 6th, when we will re-evaluate the current COVID-19 crisis and determine if and when the Branch will reopen.
