COVID Policy

August 2023

For the 2023-24 season the Westford Chorus Board of Directors has determined that COVID vaccination will no longer be required for participants. We do ask that everyone follow CDC guidelines regarding COVID diagnosis or exposure, as well as for cold/flu and other infections symptoms:

Please stay home if you are sick and follow CDC protocols. If you have been diagnosed with COVID we would appreciate it if you would email us at westford.ma.chorus@gmail.com or let a Board member know directly. Your information will be held in strict confidence, but we would want to let the chorus know if there was potential exposure.

Masks will be optional. If there is any question about cold or flu symptoms but you have tested negative and still decide to come to chorus, please wear a mask. When in doubt, stay home and practice with WJIM! If you are missing a rehearsal, we ask you to email us, so we know you are OK (we miss you!). If an illness is keeping you away from multiple practices, and you are concerned it will impact your attendance and ability to perform, please speak with a Board member so we can work with you.

Policies will be re-evaluated if local conditions change regarding COVID rates, etc., and we will follow local, state, or national guidelines.
