Penetanguishene Arena moves into the next phase of the reopening plan
February 17, 2022 – With Ontario moving into the next phase of reopening as of 12:01 a.m. today, the Penetanguishene Memorial Community Centre (PMCC) remains open, with the following rules in place:
- 50% capacity for spectator seating, 100 patrons per side.
- Capacity limits removed for rest of the facility.
- Visitors must use the enhanced certificate with official QR code as valid proof of vaccination or medical exemption along with ID. Vaccine receipts or medical exemptions without the QR code will not be accepted.
- Masking, active screening and physical distancing in line-ups continues to apply.
Ontario intends to take additional steps to ease public health measures if public health and health system indicators continue to improve. This includes lifting capacity limits in all remaining indoor public settings and proof of vaccination requirements for all settings as of March 1st, 2022. The Town will review the modified measures once they are confirmed by the province.
An updated PMCC Safety Plan is available here.
