GAMBIER, Ohio – The Kenyon College Department of Athletics, Fitness and Recreation released today its spectator policies for the 2021 spring sports season. Many of the policies follow previously established campus-wide guidelines, as well as recommendations from Knox County Public Health.
All spectators for spring sports are restricted to Kenyon employees and in-resident Kenyon students only. No visitors will be permitted. All spectators must be masked and must observe physical distancing at all times. Spectators who do not follow these guidelines will be asked to leave.
No spectators will be allowed at any indoor venue.
In order to attend a spring athletics event, a spectator must first register for the event using the KenyonFit app, the same app used to access the Lowry Center. Once registered, the spectator will be allowed in designated bleachers/stands following a brief check-in with the venue's game manager.
Specifics for each spring sport venue follow…
- Men's and women's tennis at VandenBerg Courts (outdoor)
-- 20 spectators, limited to 5 per bleacher
