Sew Safe Policy – Updated

Due to the global COVID-19 environment, our concern for members’ well-being, and liability concerns for the Royal City Quilters Guild, all RCQG activities are to be conducted according to current Ontario provincial guidelines including capacity limits, masking, and physical distancing.

In all instances, RCQG in-person gatherings must include proof of vaccination and contact tracing. These gatherings include, but are not limited to monthly guild meetings, executive meetings, committee meetings, special interest groups and workshops.
