COVID-19

PGC Covid-19 Policy effective April 1, 2022:

The State of Hawai‘i has lifted the indoor mask mandate as of March 26, 2022. In response to this updated guidance and low COVID-19 case rates, the wearing of masks will now be optional at PGC and all of its locations. Nevertheless we ask for everyone’s kokua in continuing to practice safety precautions:

  • Temperature checks will still be required for entry;

  • Masks are optional in all places except for common areas;

  • Continue proper hand hygiene;

  • Social distancing as needed. Avoid congregating.

A temperature will be taken at time of entry and should a person register a temperature of 100.4 or higher, this person will be asked to leave the premises and to consult a health care provider.
