A PROUD ARIZONA COMPANY                                      

Dear Valued Students and Guests


We wanted to let you know, we have always paid particular attention
to the sanitation of our facility. Even though much of our space is
"indoor/outdoor", we have always considered it to be very
important to direct a great deal of attention to
disinfecting surfaces we all may be in contact with.
UPDATED JANUARY 30, 2021
THESE ARE SOME OF THE SAFE PRACTICES WE
WILL BE USING BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER
OUR CLASSES AND CAMPS.
WE WILL,

* Restrict class sizes to 12 or fewer adults or 16 kids.

* Change work stations to provide safe distancing
Each student has their own equipment.

* We are not doing any "group" cooking. Each student will
have their own ingredients and
touch only their own food.

*We have  moved some classes to our Indoor/ Outdoor, cooled
facility; Bula Bula "on the Beach", more area for safe distancing

We installed a camera on Mardi's demonstration table
which projects to a 10 ft screen. You will be able to see.

* Spray to disinfect all surfaces daily with an EPA
 approved (for SARS, N1H1 and COVID19) disinfectant.
Air Dry as NSF Standards require

* Teach and monitor proper hand washing
Provide Touch Free soap dispensers

* We take everyone's temperature as they enter

*Require masks to be worn
* We will have gloves available
We also have face shields if needed

* Our staff will always be masked and gloved.

* We will no longer be sitting close together to eat our cooking.
Instead we will offer "To Goes" for you to take samples.

* We have an environmentally friendly, no odor, composting
restroom outside Bula Bula. It is cleaned top to bottom
and fully sanitized before each class.

* There is a hand washing station next to the john

As we progress through this difficult time and as more
information is available and things change, we will
 update our procedures to reflect the latest precautions.

July 7. 2020: We are half way through our 5th camp week of  the summer.
We think it couldn't have gone much better! Parents are always
invited to check out our facilities. Several have been doctors and
loved what we are doing! That is a great vote of confidence for us.
During 2021, as things change, we may adjust some of our
procedures. We will not relax any sanitation rules but
hopefully we will be able to increase class sizes a little.

As we all become more concerned regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19),
we want to assure you that the health and safety of our guests and students is
our primary focus. Please be assured we are taking the necessary precautions to
ensure a safe environment throughout our classes and entire property.
We encourage often and thorough hand washing during classes
and we provide gloves for use when needed.
We spend as much time as is needed cleaning our property each day, and we have
added additional efforts to our cleaning and sanitizing procedures. We currently utilize
a hospital-grade disinfectant and have expanded the use of this disinfectant throughout
the property to include daily treatment of areas including restrooms, food preparation,
teaching and eating areas. We are also include sanitization efforts in areas utilized by
our team members, including kitchens, restrooms and dining areas.  

We communicate among our team members regarding recommended steps to take
to reduce the likelihood of infection. In doing that, we rely on recommendations by the
Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and other public health experts. Before classes we 
schedule staff member informational sessions. In those sessions we will talk about those
recommendations and the precautionary steps we are taking. 

Here are some highlights,
these procedures will continue during and
after this virus crisis.

• We have enhanced techniques used to clean the workspaces in which we conduct our classes
• We have heightened sanitizing attention to common areas, as well as the doorknobs,
pens and pencils, work surface and all the usual places.
 You will find hand washing sinks and soap easily available.
• We will provide sanitary gloves to use during class.
• Even though food generally does not carry or transmit viruses, we
 will, as much as possible have each student only handle their own food.

In addition, while we are taking steps to ensure the welfare of our students
and  ourselves we will always be adjusting our practices to reflect what
seems to be best at that time.

This includes:
• If you are not feeling well or an immediate family member is not feeling well,
we ask that you stay home to avoid passing it to others
We take everyone's temperature as they enter
• Keep your hands clean and wash your hands properly
(we will have a handout)
• Regularly wiping down and sanitizing your workspace
PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN WATER BOTTLE

We appreciate your confidence in us as we navigate this situation.

As always we are committed to providing a safe and
wholesome environment where the health and safety
of our students, guests and employees is assured.

Sincerely,

Bob and Mardi Burden
