The HDNL has voted to not allow spectators in the stands of High School games for two weeks. The  mental health impact of taking away sports far outweighs the risks associated with covid in our schools.  The mitigation strategies that have been in place since last year are more than enough to allow spectators in the stands.  Our Public Health Doctor has stated that we need to look at hospitalizations NOT case counts, our average weekly hospitalizations last week was 1.7. Please sign this petition if you are in favor of spectators at HDNL High School sporting events.  PLEASE STATE WHICH SCHOOL YOU ARE PETITIONING in REASONS FOR SIGNING.
