Update from our club president Ron Matusek, WA6TQH:
Texas Governor Announces 100% Reopening, No More Mask Mandate After Months Of Closures
After nearly a year of mandating lockdowns and closures in the state, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott lifted COVID-19 restrictions, effectively opening all businesses and abolishing the statewide mask mandate by March 10. Depending on the alert levels in Harris County, NARS may be able resume our monthly meetings in person at the Klein Fire Department Admin Building, our normal location.
This should not be interpreted to mean that all requirements to wear masks and social distance no longer apply. The governor made it clear that if the infection levels go back up, the state restrictions will be reinstated. He also stated that it is up to the facility or business to set their own rules and requirements. As users of the facility and customers of the business, we are required to comply with those rules.
For current information and guidance on the COVID situation, please visit the following sites:
When license testing is available, we will announce it here and on the reflector. Please visit our testing information page for current requirements and guidelines. Thanks for being considerate.
We are planning to have the March meeting in person at the Klein Fire Department Administration building. ZOOM will also be available, but we encourage in-person attendance if possible. Health guidelines - masks and social distancing - will be in effect. Our continued access to this excellent facility is completely dependent on how well we comply with their requirements.
NARS attempts to provide an enjoyable, interesting, and informative experience at each of our meetings. This being your club, we welcome suggestions from the membership for topics that you find useful and interesting. Either send an email to any of the club officers, attend a board meeting and make your suggestion in person, or make a suggestion at the regular meeting at 7:30. We are always happy to entertain your suggestions.
