Richmond Family Place is a membership based organization. They ask all families to become members (talk to the staff when you first visit). Membership fees help them to pay for the building costs and keep the playrooms stocked with great quality resources. Membership costs $25 a year per family (or Pay-What-You-Can). They 
don’t want membership costs to be a barrier for anyone, so talk to staff if you need a little help!

The playrooms will look a little different than before the pandemic. Adhering to their Health & Safety protocols has caused them to adapt and change their environment. They appreciate your patience and adaptability as they navigate the ongoing challenges. A portion of every program will include outdoor activities and so it is still really important to make sure that all family members are dressed for outdoor play.

Here is what you need to know before joining them indoors:

• Adults will no longer be required to wear a face mask while in programs. However, wearing a mask is strongly recommended
• Families will continue to enter the programs through the side gate before entering the playrooms. You will find a doorbell located outside the fence. Ring the bell and a staff will come and assist you with sign in & hand sanitizing.
• There will be a 40-person maximum capacity in the playrooms (children & adults combined). When the program is full a **STOP** sign will be posted outside the garden gate and in front of the main doors to let families know the program is full.
• There will be no access to other areas inside the main building, except the washrooms.
• Please dress for the weather. All programs will include outdoor time.
