The Reopening Plan


We are proud to announce that we have put together a reopening plan for the Tolles Parsons Center (TPC).  We have worked on our first draft of our reopening plan which is a strategic and slow reentry and transition to in-person activities at the TPC.  All plans are contingent upon the continual progress of conditions related to COVID-19 and approval(s) by the Health Department.    

  

At this time, this plan has been reviewed by the Director/Assistant Director, the Health Department, the Programming Working Group, and the COA Board.  We understand that there may continue to be frustrations as participants get vaccinated and everyone is eager to return to the building.  Please be assured that we are thinking everything through thoroughly and working to ensure continued and increasing service, while keeping everyone’s health and safety at the forefront.    


April


As we welcome April, we welcome some added in-person options: 

  

The Patio is Open 

Need to get out of the house? Meet up with a friend? The outdoor patio will reopen starting in April.  To comply with COVID restrictions and safety precautions, we will be limiting the patio to 10 people until the end of June.  There will be cleaning wipes and trash available on the patio for anyone’s use.  Please be respectful of other people who may be waiting to enjoy the patio and limit your time to an hour if there is further interest.  For the month of April, we ask that no beverage or food be consumed on the patio at this time. 

Movies are back 

We will be showing movies again in our Multipurpose room starting in April.  We are limited to five participants at a time and the movie that we will show will be advertised the week in advance.  If we have enough interest, we may offer multiple showings.  Please call us at (781) 235-3961 for our next showing and to sign-up.   

 

IT with Lois in Person 

Lois will continue to hold remote help sessions on Thursdays and has begun meeting at the TPC with folks in person to assist with their IT needs on Tuesdays.  Please call for more information and to schedule a 45-minute appointment today at (781) 235-3961. 

 

If you are interested in seeing the most up-to-date plan, and/or looking further ahead at what we project, please check out the full plan click here.  As we progress forward, we will continue to keep the most up-to-date plan available on the main page of our website at www.wellesleycoa.org.  The plan is broken out by category: building access; Covid precautions; programming in-person; programming – remote; services- in-person; services – remote; and transportation.  In the plan, a colored-in space means the service/program is expected to be operating/in affect that month.  Numbers in parentheses indicate the maximum number of participants for that activity during that month.  Please note that while programs begin to slowly return to the TPC, most, if not all, of our programs will continue to be available as a remote option.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at (781) 235-3961 or click here to email us.
