Masks still required

Just so there’s no confusion or ambiguity, masks are still required for access to the space. Here are the CDC guidelines for proper mask wearing - https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/about-face-coverings.html

As a side, it’s important to note that many (maybe most?) of the activities in our space warrant wearing a face mask anytime they are performed. I’m certainly guilty of not always doing this in the past as a woodworker, but this past year has brought a lot more awareness to the importance of this. Protect your community during this pandemic and protect yourself always.

Any forthcoming updates to this policy? The rest of Austin seems to have transitioned to “optional”…

We’ll have an update towards the end of this week (the board meets Wednesday night). We just sent out a short survey to all active members in Neon to get some community feedback that will help guide our policy decisions.
