COVID-19 Guidelines 9/8/20

The Ann Arbor Ice Cube will gradually reopen to the public and reintroduce programming as it is determined safe to do so.

The Ann Arbor Ice Cube and its tenant organizations will also restrict attendance at sessions, based upon recommendations from the CDC, Dept. of Health and the State of Michigan. When you visit the Cube, you should be PREPARED and AWARE of what awaits you:

● DO plan to wear a mask or facial covering at all times inside the Cube(INCLUDING ON ICE per EO 2020- 176).

● DO refer to a2ice3.com and specific guidelines outlining policies and procedures that may change.

● DO plan to arrive at the Cube NO MORE THAN 20 MINUTES prior to your scheduled program so we can control the number of people inside the facility.

● We are adjusting programming to limit the number of individuals on the ice at one time.

● We are marking or relocating floors, benches and bleacher areas to designate 6’ spacing from others.

● We have installed several hand sanitizers throughout the facility and replaced the restroom hand dryers with paper towel dispensers.

● We are cleaning and sanitizing surfaces, rental skates, restrooms, locker rooms, player benches, penalty boxes, dasher board tops, and all other potential touch points no less than once hourly.

● Our employees are receiving specific training in COVID-19 prevention protocols.

● Our employees are wearing masks when not on the ice surfaces, practicing social distancing, undergoing daily medical screening and frequently washing hands. Even with these precautions in place, The Ann Arbor Ice Cube cannot eliminate all risks associated with COVID-19, nor can we guarantee that transmission will not occur. By choosing to join us inside the Cube, guests freely assume the risk that they may contract COVID-19 despite the Cube’s best efforts to provide the cleanest and safest environment possible.
