Reminders: Everyone in attendance will be muted once the meeting starts. If you want to comment, you will need to unmute yourself. I will try to manage the conversations to make sure everyone has the opportunity to speak out. Feel free to submit thoughts via the chat and hopefully one of our OSAA staff members will be monitoring that.
Purpose: To develop a set of recommendations that we can present to the OSAA Executive Board to help our membership schools with guidance and a comprehensive set of guidelines specific to dance. What we develop and recommend will be impacted by the decisions of other entities - the situation continues to evolve and we should be prepared for changes to occur.
What we can anticipate: Continued guidance from NFHS/SMAC and the OSAA/SMAC regarding medical recommendations. As these change, they will continue to carry a big weight in the decisions and adjustments made in the future. Not every sport and activity will have the same reopening timelines.
Agenda: Practice Guidance/Protocols Camps/Summer Open Gyms Policy regarding practice/competition during temporary school closures Pre-Practice Screening temperature checks, recording those present for contact tracing Sport/Activity Specific Hygiene protocols (handwashing, hand sanitizer, shower following, washing clothes, etc.) Face coverings guidance/requirements coaches and participants No sharing of equipment between students (towels, clothing, shoes, sports-specific equipment, water bottles, etc.) Cleaning equipment, including balls, between workouts and/or use by another individual Sport Specific Drills/Modifications limited participants, etc.
