------------------------------------------------------

1. DARA Clubhouse Closed Until Further Notice

With the Ohio Department of Health's Director's Stay At Home Order issued
Sunday, March 22, 2020, the DARA Clubhouse at 6619 Bellefontaine Rd is now
CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. This means no meetings of any size, no use of
radios and no access to the building. Please respect this notice and your
fellow members in this time of unprecedented crisis.

Please follow this mandated notice and stay at home or your place of
residence to help prevent the spread of the COVID19 Virus. This will slow
the spread of the virus and allow hospitals to manage cases. Please follow
all the safety precautions you have been reading for the last weeks, such
as: maintaining Social Distancing, washing hands or using hand sanitizer
frequently and not touching your face, when you must go out for necessary
supplies. Keep up to date on the virus and take time away from it also. Too
much information can be stressful. You can still get out and walk or garden,
if it ever stops raining. Make time to get back to your radios, which is on
my list.

Be safe and we will get through all this!
