At BCP we are aware that some people are very wary about going out and mixing with others and will only start to do so gradually. We would like everyone to know that their well-being is of prime importance to BCP and we have been taking every possible step to minimise risks. For merchants in Boquete it has been very difficult to make a living for the past 6 months and we worked for 6 months to be able to re-open our Tuesday Market in the Arco Iris Salon on the Feria grounds to enable them to start doing business again. We were able to start in September within guidelines from MINSA. So that you can assess for yourselves whether you will come to the market next week, these are the steps that we are taking to ensure a minimum of risk. * The floor and surfaces will be cleaned and disinfected before anyone else enters the room * All members of staff have their temperatures checked and recorded before first entering * Tables and chairs are disinfected as they are brought into the market area * As vendors arrive, their temperatures will be checked and recorded * All vendors have previously undergone a training session on the health and safety requirements which includes use of hand sanitizer and regular cleaning of their work surfaces * At all times, all staff and vendors will wear masks and face shields to protect themselves and the visitors * The market will open to the public at 9am and the number allowed in the room at any one time will be controlled. Only one entrance will be used to enable this control. * Visitors will have their temperatures checked before entering the room. As with staff and vendors, no-one will be allowed entry with a temperature of 38C or over. We are required to refer anyone with a higher temperature to the health authorities. Masks must be worn inside the market. * Only one customer will be at a table at one time, and handling of goods is not allowed. * Bathrooms will be cleaned and disinfected at 30 minute intervals. It is impossible in any environment to guarantee that there is no chance of infection, but all these steps are being taken with the full approval of MINSA to make sure that the risk to everyone is at a minimum. We know that there are people who don't believe these steps are necessary, but without them the Boquete community will not have the market it needs and deserves. We will continue to publish up to date lists of the vendors expected at the market, and you can also find more information at www.eventsboquete.org We look forward to seeing you back at the BCP Market which continues to be at the Heart of the Community.

And we are off to a great start. A big thank you to our vendors and visitors who were there for our first BCP market in the new venue. Even with the limited number of vendors we were allowed, it was a success for all. Thank you to Boquete Community for coming together after all this time

BCP Tuesday Market - It's Time!!
Phil Bennett replied to Boquete Community Pulse's topic in BCP - Boquete Community Playhouse
Information for visitors: - How we are following the guidelines set by the government. In addition to staff and vendors, we are allowed to have 25 visitors in the market at any one time. At the door your temperature will be checked, and Hand Sanitizer applied. Anyone with a temperature of 38degC or higher will not be allowed entry and will be referred to MINSA Inside the market tables are spaced at least 2 meters apart and we ask you to follow a one-way system around the market to minimise contact. We ask you not to spend more time inside than necessary so that others can enter. Tables and bathrooms will be cleaned and sanitized regularly for your protection. Thank you for your understanding.

Each week we will alternate vendors to follow Minsa's guidelines regarding social distancing. Each week we will have fresh vegetables, baked goods, meat, coffee, natural remedies, chocolate, honey, jewelry, charities, and a selection of artisan products. We will also collect your mail (envelopes only, please) and arrange to have it mailed in the U.S. Stamps are available at the BCP table. Here are the vendors for the first week.
