I know some may not have sports this fall, so take time By: Mike Thar out of your week call your employees and check on them. We all Manager, Clemson University should use this time to build those relationships with staff and NACC Treasurer volunteers. In the long run it will help when sports start back, they will be more willing to help or work for you because you did take that time The definition of normalcy is “the quality or condition of being and check on them and their families. normal, as the general economic, political, and social conditions of a nation; normality.” In concessions words, sports and fans at our athletic events means normalcy. As we all know full stadiums and arenas are in the past for now. So how do we cope in this new normalcy you ask? Remember the big picture of things as we all begin fall/winter sports. You may be stressed on the inside, but you need to portray that happy cheerleader to not just your staff but also your vendors and non-profit volunteers. Non-Profit groups are essential to our business. Here at Clemson we are looking out for those groups working football and helping this year. We are raising the percentage they get back this year and raised the minimums so they will reflect a three-year average.

  • Ralph Engelstad Arena Covid-19 Readiness Plan
    REA will follow CDC recommendations, along with federal and local governmental requirements on the use of face coverings, gloves, handwashing, and sanitizing stations. These enhanced protective measures will be communicated via signage reminders at appropriate locations and graphics throughout the event. REA will make accommodations to allow for physical distancing (also called social distancing) in all areas where feasible such as entries, eating areas, ticket windows, concourses, common areas, elevators, escalators, suites, club rooms, Sioux Shop, concession lines, and any other space people gather. The CDC’s current physical guidelines recommend staying at least six feet away from people not in your group. The REA will increase the frequency of cleaning and disinfecting all areas, such as restrooms, concourses, lobbies, concession stands, locker rooms, dressing rooms, concession stands, ticket windows, Sioux Shop and any other high traffic areas. High-frequency touch points such as handrails, door handles, push bars, knobs, elevator buttons, high top tables, and other frequent touch points will be cleaned before, during, and after events employing appropriate cleaning and disinfection protocols and products. All staff will be subject to temperature checks before accessing the venue. All health screenings will be performed in compliance with the current recommendations compliant with local, state, federal and CDC guidelines. These recommendations are subject to change. Where possible, REA will minimize contact touchpoints for guests and employees. Examples include touchless hand sanitizer stations, touchless faucets and toilet flushes. No staff hand shaking, high fives and physical contact with guests. Propping of doors or having staff open doors will be encouraged along with electronic ticketing.
