Protecting and Preserving the Springer and Our Community

We recognize that as a society we will be living with the impacts of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 for an unforeseeable amount of time into the future. The goal of this plan is to provide for the safety and protection of our Springer Family, while also preserving the Springer Opera House as one of the cultural and economic drivers in our community. This plan includes guidance from these sources:
President Trump’s Opening Up America Again guidelines
CDC’s Guidance for Communities, Schools, Workplaces, and Events
The Event Safety Alliance Reopening Guide
OSHA’s Guidance on Preparing Workplaces for COVID-19
Governor Kemp’s guidelines for the state of Georgia
Mayor Henderson’s guidelines for the city of Columbus
