COVID-19 Protocol 

• All Coaches will be required to wear a mask during group class time and while at UOO.
• All patrons of the UOO are asked to wear a mask while in the building.
• Please follow all directional signs that are posted.
• As soon as a skater or patron has entered the building, they will have their temperature taken before they are allowed to enter the rest of the facility.
• Learn to Skate participants will then proceed to the check-in desk on the north side of the guest services counter to pick up his/her group tag.
• Skaters will then be directed downstairs to the tunnel where they can get their skates at the skate rental counter or put their own skates on.
• Group tags are color coordinated with the level the skater should be in. Skaters should sit and put skates on next to the coordinating colored class sign. The skate rental lobby is very large. Benches and classes will be spaced out to help with social distancing.
• The instructors will meet their classes in the lobby for the first day of class.
• Once skaters have their skates on and have met their instructor in the tunnel, they will be directed to the staircase that leads up to the rink area where they can get on the ice. Parents are not permitted to go up to the arena to be rinkside unless their child is under the age of 6.
• If a parent/guardian wants to stay and watch the skater(s) in the rink, only one parent/guardian will be allowed to observe the skater or skaters from the same family. Parents must wear masks for the entirety of the class. To maintain the social distancing guidelines, any additional siblings, family members or friends who are not enrolled in the scheduled class will not be permitted to be in the facility.
• Any parents or guardians that must stay and watch may do so by going up the east side stairs in the tunnel and into the east side of the arena where the bleachers are.
• When class has completed, skaters will be directed to the ice exit area and a coach will assist the skaters to the staircase that leads them back down to the lobby in the tunnel where parents can meet their skaters.
• Please follow the signs to return rental skates and remember to adhere to the social distancing guidelines.
• All skaters must leave facility immediately following class to allow for other customers to enter the facility for their programming.
• The 15 minute practice ice time that usually happens during Learn to Skate time is not available to skaters during this initial phase of returning to classes. Instead, each skater will receive a punch pass for four Public Skating sessions to use at their convenience.

TIPS

• Arrive a few minutes early to sign in and put skates on.
• Wear gloves, pants and a light jacket – the temperature is 65 degrees inside the rink year round.
• Helmets are provided and must be worn for skaters 8 and under.
