- Floors around entry points and workspaces will have clear markings to show six feet from any space in which employees and members spend regular extended amounts of time.
- Chairs in waiting or lounging areas will be relocated to ensure a minimum distance of six feet between seating.
- Signs detailing handwashing requirements, illness precautions, social distancing, and proper use of face coverings will be posted prominently throughout worksites.
- Signs noting limitations on the number of people allowed in changing rooms (1-person limit) will be posted.

Member Safety Guidelines
In light of Governor Inslee’s recent COVID-19 restrictions and given our paramount concern for the safety of our members, families, volunteers, donors, and staff, we’ve had to make further changes in our council programming and volunteer engagement.
ALL in-person programming across the 18 counties served by Girl Scouts of Western Washington (GSWW) is suspended from November 16 until January, when we will re-evaluate our operation based on state guidance at that time. The Member Safety Guidelines have been updated to reflect this change. For more information on this decision, please read the most recent email from our CEO.
