Masks are required as listed below. This is a requirement of the State, Lake County, and our insurance companies. It is not a political statement. Please choose not to attend if you wish to protest.

These are the rules at this time, please expect that these will change as guidance from our state and local officials changes, and as our business operations requires us to maintain a safe and efficient operation.
