As We Address Coronavirus Together
Dear Patrons,
Pittsboro Youth Theater's (PYT's) family of performance arts organizations within the Center for the Arts, Pittsboro (CFTA), is dedicated to improving the lives of area residents. Needless to say, the ongoing good health of our customers, neighbors and visitors is of great importance to us.
As of early Spring 2022 it looks like COVID is getting better. Presently, everyone in CFTA and Sweet Bee Theater must wear a mask. Vaccinations are encouraged for all and currently required for Spring PYT casts.
We expect that participants in our summer camps will not be required to wear a mask or be vaccinated; we will make that determination based on NC and Chatham County health department recommendations, Chatham County School District requirements and our own research of professionally-accepted sources of information.
Those who prefer to wear masks will always be encouraged to do so.
All employees and owners of organizations here are working hard to keep our facility as safe and clean as we can. We have added extra cleaning procedures with bleach and Lysol before, during and at the end of every day we're open.
All staff and crew are fully vaccinated and boosted.
Further, we keep the front door and back window ajar with a fan blowing out a window in the middle room, and keep our HVAC system running full blast with fancy $30 virus-quality air filters to improve fresh safe air ventilation during operating hours.
Thank you very much for doing all you can to keep us all as safe as possible from COVID.
Sincelely,
Tammy Matthews and Craig Witter
