Y.E.T.I. Programing and the Corona Virus

As many of you know, the COVID-19 virus is having an increasing impact on our community since January 21, 2020, when the first known case was announced in Washington State.  Y.E.T.I. is carefully tracking the recommendations of public health agencies and the spread of the virus in King County, and our hearts go out to those who have been affected. The health and safety of our community is our top priority. Based on what we know about COVID-19, it is spread most frequently among close contact (within 6 feet) with those infected. Due to the nature of our programs, participants will be in close contact during transportation in our van. Additionally, many of our participants borrow and share gear, which is another easy way to spread the virus. For these reasons, we have decided to cancel all programs in March. We will continue to monitor the situation and reassess program viability at the start of April. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to Talia Hirsch at talia.hirsch@goyeti.org or (413)250-2798.
