Paddles sanitized, tables shut down for now.

Senior center notified of visit by someone who tested positive

It’s possible that attendees at an event at the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center, a community gathering space in downtown Winslow, may have been exposed to the virus. Executive Director Reed Price said that the center had been notified on Monday that a man who had visited the building on Mach 2 for a table tennis event later tested positive for COVID-19. It’s not known if the man had the virus when he visited that day, Price said.

Price said the center was looking at ways to help those who might feel isolated to stay connected over the internet: “Even if it comes to the point where it looks like the wise thing to do is shut the door, we’re not going to shut down the operation,” he said.
