The first day without badminton turned out to be a great day to be outside. But if you just have to get your badminton fix, here's some links to badminton apps for Android and iPhone: https://www.3nions.com/10-best-badminton-games-for-android/ https://www.iphoneappsfinder.com/b/4-badminton-apps-iphone/

If you're missing badminton tonight (like me) and you're getting sick of Netflix, here's another suggestion. The library has digital copies of a number of popular magazines that you can access through an app called Flipster. Click the link for details. And they're all free with your library card! http://stratford.library.on.ca/flipster

Reminder: There is no evening badminton on Wednesday, March 11th. The morning session will run as normal.

Important Information Regarding the Stratford Badminton Club We apologize for the delay in getting this information to you. The executive have been discussing this issue for most of the day reviewing the information regarding COVID-19, and our responsibility to the membership and community. A lot has changed in the past few days since I sent a letter regarding our response to COVID-19.... We were hoping that we could continue play at the badminton club in a safe manner while being responsible to the community at large. However, we have been informed that the Agriplex will be closed. Therefore, activities of the badminton club will be suspended effective immediately. We will wait for details from the city regarding re-opening of the facility, but those details have not been worked out yet. Once we receive that information, you will be informed. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we all work together to get through this unprecedented time of concern and uncertainty. Sincerely, Dave Allely On behalf of the Executive

Dear Members, As the concern with coronavirus heightens we all become increasing concerned about its impact on our community. We want you to know that the executive is monitoring the situation and working closely with the city. The City of Stratford is taking the lead of the Huron Perth Public Health Unit (HPPH). The current recommendation from the HPPH is that there is no need to cancel community events due to COVID-19. Currently there is no evidence of community transmissi...on of COVID-19 in Canada or in Ontario, so public events (mass gatherings) can still happen. The HPPH will communicate and work with local partners to provide direction to community events. We would be notified through the City right away if the recommendations change. The HPPH has updated information about the coronavirus on its website: hpph.ca/coronavirus Specifically, we encourage you to stay updated on the information and remain diligent in your infection control measures. Attached you will find a letter from the City which provides additional information for you. As updated information is received, we will communicate it to you in a timely fashion. Sincerely, Executive Stratford Badminton Club
