Looking forward to receiving & reviewing guidelines as soon as they come out. CAPE - California Association for Private Events members... Be sure to tune in for details for this Clubhouse.

Operating guidance is on its way! We have a call with CDPH today to review what is coming down the pipeline. While we are not at liberty to discuss the guidance until it is posted to the public, we will be having a clubhouse Q&A on Friday (time TBD) to go through your questions. Stay tuned!

We are still waiting for the much anticipated state guidelines for private events. While you wait, be sure to offer your story, your input and share with others...

Yes we know everyone wants the new guidelines. They have not been released yet. We are hopeful that they will be today but the state may wait till tomorrow. While we wait, here are some great things to do with all that anxious energy! Head on over to our website. Take the survey, sign up to get our newsletter, send letters to government and share our efforts! We are stronger together. Don’t worry as soon as the Private Events Guidelines are released we will share them!!

Great news for Maine

And this is why we are working to gather all of you as participants in our conversations with SLOCEC & really hoping that you will become members with CAPE - California Association for Private Events. The more we are the mightier we are.

And... we are not done yet! No where near done!

We need your help! Reach out to your local State Assembly Member or Senator. Tell them you know guidelines for the Private Event Industry are circulating and ask them to support our request to re-open under already approved guidelines!

For the past 6 months, CA was only state banning private events and gatherings, forcing this activity underground and into private homes. In the past month states like NY, NJ, CT, CO, and Mass have significantly loosened restrictions.

Meanwhile we have been meeting with CDPH with NO GUIDANCE, NO RESPONSE, NO MOVEMENT.

It is time to follow the lead of the other 49 states and allow us to reopen safely according to industry best practices. It is not fair to our clients, our employees, and business owners to continue to lag so far behind.
