Outing: Outdoor Skating
Description

Outdoor skating is a great way to get residents outside and moving during the winter weather, and lends itself to being social-distancing friendly.

Skating is a very effective cardiovascular workout that works all the leg muscled and balance. If you are looking for ways to stay active, maybe outdoor skating is the exercise for your residents. To transport residents by bus to a booked outdoor skating venue, social distancing precautions must be made.

To make the bus social-distance friendly, one seat should be left empty behind and in front of every resident. In addition, residents should be seated in a staggered fashion on each side of the bus. Here is a downloadable resource discussing best-practices for making your bus ride social-distance friendly.
