All Aboard is closed Wednesday, January 1/19 through Tuesday, 1/25.

We are so excited to be re-opening this Wednesday, January 26 at our regular time. We’ve missed you!!!

We are proud that our board of directors encouraged us to close the center to prevent anyone from possibly contracting COVID-19. It is always safety first at All Aboard and we are extremely relieved that no one that we know of has contracted the virus while attending All Aboard. The safety measures in place (masking, four commercial air purifiers, consistent cleaning measures, and hand washing/sanitizing) is working to keep everyone healthy while attending All Aboard.

Remember to please notify All Aboard should a participant test positive with COVID-19. It is important to us that we share information to protect our participants.

If you or your participant has any symptoms of a cold or flu such as a cough, sore throat, headache, runny nose, or sneezing please do not attend All Aboard activities until the symptoms have passed- even if they test negative for COVID-19 or don’t have a fever. If the participant arrives at All Aboard with symptoms, their emergency contact will be called and the participant will need to be picked up immediately.
Also, if someone living with the participant has tested positive for COVID-19, please do not allow the participant to attend All Aboard until the illness within the household has passed. No one intends to get someone else sick, but we need to be extra careful during this pandemic.
​
Thank you all for your patience and positive encouragement as we had to close quickly with very short notice last Wednesday. That is one of our busiest days of the week and we did not want to take chances after learning of several potential exposures for some of our participants, staff, and volunteers.

Boosters Required by February 11th

All participants are required to get a Covid-19 booster shot and submit proof to All Aboard by February 11th.
​
Proof of vaccination can be obtained through https://waverify.doh.wa.gov/ (website can take up to 3-days to log your vaccine). Follow the steps on the website then forward the email or send a screenshot to info@allaboardwa.org. This is our preferred method of verification, if you would like assistance please call 425-327-5533.

If you are unable to send us the digital record, please email a photo of the participant’s vaccine card to info@allaboardwa.org or bring the card to All Aboard so that we can make a copy.

Safety Policies

  • DISPOSABLE ​MASKS ARE REQUIRED. In accordance with state mandates, masks are required to be worn while at All Aboard. Masks may be removed for eating and drinking only. Based on updated recommendations from the CDC and WHO, we are requiring a new disposable mask every day as they are more effective then reusable fabric masks.
  • ​EVERYONE MUST COMPLETE AND HAVE AN APPROVED “APPLICATION FORM” PRIOR TO ATTENDING ALL ABOARD. If you do not have approval to attend, you will be turned away. A caregiver will be called and will have one hour to pick up the participant or a $75 charge per hour will apply. This is a part of our safety process and no exceptions will be made. Please make sure you have completed your application form and receive approval BEFORE coming to All Aboard. The application can be found here:
  • ​ANYONE WHO ATTENDS ALL ABOARD MUST HAVE PROOF OF VACCINATION AND BOOSTER. This will not be waived for quite some time. We have a high-risk population, and their safety is very important to us. It is critical that all who attend All Aboard (this includes staff, volunteers, bus drivers, etc.) be fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Anyone who attends All Aboard must receive their booster and submit their proof of vaccination by Friday, February 11th. 
    Proof of vaccination must be through https://waverify.doh.wa.gov/ (website can take up to 3-days to log your vaccine). Follow the steps on the website then forward the record by email to info@allaboardwa.org.
    ​If you would like help with the online verification, please call 425-327-5533 during business hours and we will walk you through the process.​
  • EXPOSURE. If a participant tests positive for Covid and has attended All Aboard in the last two weeks, please notify us immediately at info@allaboardwa.org or 425-327-5533 so that we can notify anyone who was exposed as soon as possible. We record everyone who comes to the center so that we can track exposure, but this only works if we are notified of any positive cases.
    If anyone at your residence tests positive for Covid, please do not allow any participant from your residence to come to All Aboard until the quarantine time (10 days) has passed AND the participant has tested negative on a PCR lab test - not just a rapid at-home test. We want to keep our participants, staff, and bus drivers safe.

  • TESTING. We know that testing appointments are hard to come by right now, but with the new omicron variant being harder to detect, we are only accepting PCR lab tests as proof of being Covid negative. At-home rapid tests have not been as accurate at detecting Omicron, so if a participant has any symptoms or has been exposed to someone who has Covid, they must go to a clinic or testing site and get a PCR test with a negative result before returning to All Aboard.​
  • SYMPTOMS. Omicron has some new symptoms not previously associated with Covid. Please review the list below, and if a participant has ANY ONE of these symptoms, keep them home until they have a negative PCR test. If a participant has any of these symptoms while at All Aboard, we will call their caregivers to pick them up immediately. If they are not picked up within an hour, they will be billed $75 an hour until they are picked up. Please make sure we have up-to-date emergency contact information and that you have a pick-up plan in place in case a participant needs to leave early, but most importantly - do not send them to All Aboard with any of the below symptoms.
    • Fever or chills
    • Cough
    • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
    • Fatigue
    • Muscle or body aches
    • Headache
    • New loss of taste or smell
    • Sore throat
    • Congestion or runny nose
    • Nausea or vomiting
    • Diarrhea
  • COLD and FLU SEASON. As we are in cold/flu season, please help us keep our participants safe. Please do not send participants if they have symptoms of a cold/flu, even if they test negative for Covid. Keep them home for monitoring until at least 24 hours after their fever has passed.  Flu shots are encouraged for those who are able.
​
  • BRING YOUR LUNCH AND SNACKS! Our full reopening means that we can once again enjoy lunch together. If you are planning to stay all day, please bring a lunch and snacks. All participants will be required to wash or sanitize their hands before snacks and lunch. We will serve one snack each session (at 10:30 am and 2:00 pm). If a participant has any dietary restrictions, please note it in their application form.

  • THE “SNACK SHACK” IS OPEN! We offer simple snacks and drinks for additional purchase every day from 11:00 am - 2:00 pm. Participants will be limited to two snacks and one drink per day. The price per snack is 50¢ - $1.00 and sodas/drinks will be $1.00.
    ​
  • FEE FOR EACH SESSION IS $20. Participants will be charged for the full session upon arrival and over extending by one hour (example: staying through AM session and one hour into PM session). Please schedule your drop-off/pick-up times accordingly.
  • CAREGIVER WILL BE REQUIRED TO ATTEND if a participant cannot use the restroom, feed themselves without assistance, or requires medication to be administered. We do not have enough staff to provide one-on-one time unless it is an emergency. No All Aboard staff or volunteer will be allowed to administer medication.
    ​
  • NO REOPENING DATE HAS BEEN SET FOR BOWLING OR THE S.P.I.N DANCE. We have to wait just a while longer before these activities will resume. We need to wait until we are safe to have large gatherings and for when we have enough volunteers to resume. We are also excited to have these activities start again sometime soon, we just have to be patient. If you are interested in volunteering, you can find more info here.

  • DROP-IN SCHEDULE. We are once again operating as a “drop in” activity center, with no attendance limitations and no appointment necessary, and participants have the option to stay all day.

Drop-off time 8:30 – 9:00
