As we reopen on July 22, the well-being of our guests, team members, vendors and community remains our highest priority.  We will continue to follow all Federal, State and Local regulations, as we plan to welcome you back.  Should we need to revise our operations plans at any point based on their directions, we will certainly do so.  Our plan has been developed in conjunction with David R. Snydman MD, currently Vice Chairman for Research, Department of Medicine, Tufts Medical Center, formerly Chief, Division of Geographic Medicine and Infectious Diseases, and Hospital Epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center, and Professor of Medicine, Tufts University School of Medicine.

We also have engaged a third-party testing company, TRC, that through direct sampling, monitors existing conditions randomly over a broad geography to immediately identify the presence of any organic material on surfaces and high touch points. TRC is a pioneer in groundbreaking scientific and engineering developments since the 1960s.
