I want to inform you that at least one individual who attended our Election Night Victory Party has been confirmed Positive for COVID-19. As such, others who joined us eight days ago may have been exposed to this virus. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the virus is thought to spread mainly between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) through respiratory droplets produced by an infected person.

While there is no evidence transfer of the virus occurred at our event, I want all attendees to know there is a possibility you may have had at least minimum exposure. If you become aware of any other cases involving attendees of our event, please let me or a member of our leadership team know. If you experience symptoms of COVID-19 illness, please follow Johnson County Department of Health and Environment recommendations and contact your health care provider.

In consideration of this information and as a health precaution, the monthly Elephant Club meeting and other scheduled activities are now suspended.

Respectfully,

Chairman
