Saturday Gatherings

New Start Time: 3PM

everyone MUST READ THESE DETAILS FOR saturday!

If this is your first time, READ AND e-SIGN THE WAIVER below!

Base Camp Church

3979 Tilden Avenue, Culver City

Between the CDC, California, and LA County, we’ve combed through over 40 pages of guidelines to gather as a church. We’re doing our best to follow everything as requested by our state and local government and to take every precaution recommended for the health of our people and the sake of our visible conduct out in the world.

Both our local and church communities have been torn on a variety of topics surrounding proper conduct through this coronavirus season. Churches must walk in the tension of staying true to what they believe defines the local church, as well as remain all things to all people so that by all means we may save some. We pray that this gathering aligns with both goals.

You must read these details before coming!

(sign the waiver AT THE BOTTOM IF IT’S YOUR FIRST TIME)

1. Parking in our parking lot will be limited since we’ll be using most of it for our gathering, but it should not be difficult to find street parking when the lot is full.

2. Seek emergency medical care immediately if you’re experiencing ANY of these symptoms: trouble breathing, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, new confusion, inability to wake or stay awake, or bluish lips or face. Other common symptoms are a cough, shortness of breath, fever, chills, fatigue, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, or a new loss of taste or smell.

PLEASE STAY HOME if you are sick, have any of the common symptoms, or are at an increased risk of becoming sick. Also note that the current tests are not 100% accurate so even if you test negative but have symptoms, please stay home.

3. Everyone must bring a clean cloth face covering for themselves. Spare masks will be on hand if you end up forgetting yours. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has made it very clear in their guidelines to churches that the face coverings are for the express purpose of reducing the risk of “asymptomatic” or “pre-symptomatic” transmission. In other words, the face mask is intended to keep your germs to yourself when you unknowingly carry the virus but don’t have any symptoms. Whatever your thoughts are about face masks, we want to be clear about the CDC’s expressed purpose of the masks.

4. Remember to remain over 6 feet away from everyone that you do not live with. Every HOUSEHOLD will be given their own space. RESIST THE URGE to give hugs, handshakes, fist-bumps, or holy kisses :) In addition to distancing for potential safety reasons, we want to be mindful of our Christian reputation in our local community.

5. Be familiar with how to properly wash your hands and how to properly cough. Be sure to always cover your cough with the inside of your elbow. Do not cough into your hand. When washing, wet your hands, apply soap, rub your hands together to lather all areas of your hands (the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails), scrub for at least 20 seconds (sing the “Happy Birthday” song twice or say the Lord’s Prayer), rinse well, and dry your hands on a clean towel or disposable paper towel.

6. Be ready to LET US KNOW if you start to feel unwell midway through our time together.

ASSUMPTION OF THE RISK AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY RELATING TO CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19

ASSUMPTION OF THE RISK AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY RELATING TO CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19: The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and increased disinfecting procedures and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of large groups of people. Base Camp Church ("the Church") has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, the Church cannot guarantee that you or your child(ren) will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, attending the Church or Church-related activities could increase your risk and your child(ren)'s risk of contracting COVID-19. By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that my child(ren) and I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending the Church or Church-related activities and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at the Church or Church-related activities may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, Church employees, volunteers, and Church-related activity participants and their families. I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to my child(ren) or myself (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I or my child(ren) may experience or incur in connection with my child(ren)’s attendance at the Church or participation in Church-related activities (“Claims”). On my behalf, and on behalf of my children, I hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless the Church, its employees, agents, independent contractors, and representatives, of and from the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto. I understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based on the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Church, its employees, independent contractors, agents, and representatives, whether a COVID-19 infection occurs before, during, or after participation in any Church-related activity. I understand and agree that the law of the State of California will apply to this Waiver of Liability.

I HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ALL PROVISIONS OF THIS WAIVER LIABILITY AND FREELY AND KNOWINGLY ASSUME THE RISK AND WAIVE MY RIGHTS CONCERNING LIABILITY AS DESCRIBED ABOVE
