Do not share any tools or other items with anyone under any circumstances during the trail day. Once assigned an EMBA tool, it is your responsibility for the entire trail day, and will be requested to sanitize it once finished.

Do not carpool to the event unless you live together

Keep work groups small, and keep a minimum of 6 feet/2 meters from others at all times, similar to the safe work zone when using tools.

If you feel more comfortable wearing a mask, please do so. Masks will be providing when work requires working inside the safe work zone
