Inclement Weather Policy
Inclement Weather Policy
Weekday Cancellation Policy: When local school districts cancel school due to weather related incidents, all
scheduled congregational activities will also be cancelled.
Weekend Cancellation Policy: When inclement weather affects the potential safety of worshippers traveling to and from church for worship, Pastor Chris and our Executive Committee will determine cancellation on an individual
basis. Factors that affect these decisions include forecasted precipitation, hazardous road reports, extreme wind chill, and/or the ability to clear our parking lots and sidewalks of ice and snow for the safety of our worshippers and staff. We will aim to communicate any worship cancellation at least two hours in advance by “robo” call to our
membership as well with WOWT (Channel 6 online/television).
