Going into the weekend with the weather forecast, remember that this testing site is an outdoor facility and may be subject to delays for inclement weather condition. As a reminder, this test site is for COVID-19 virus; it is not a testing site for antibodies. This site is for those who want to know if they currently have COVID-19.  

Here is what you need to know before coming to the testing site: 

• Testing for ages 18 and up only. For children under 18, contact your healthcare provider.
• It is a two-hour wait from the gate, although wait times are significantly less by mid-morning. Consider bringing an audiobook to pass the time.
• You must bring a valid photo ID for everyone being tested.
• Bring a face-covering / mask; you must cover your mouth for the nasal swab.
• Stay in your vehicles at all times.
• Keep your windows closed until given direction to open for the nasal swab.
• Your vehicle must have working windows that can be lowered for testing; doors must stay closed at all times.
• Make sure your vehicle has enough fuel to last the entire time and plan accordingly.
• Bring your own water, snacks, and any medication that you will need, especially if you have any medical condition that requires you to eat.
• Testing site opens at 9 a.m. sharp; please do not line up cars outside the gate.
• Be patient, be kind: The people who choose to be tested are people who believe they might have COVID-19, so keeping the workers safe is important. 

The testing site will remain open, seven days a week from 9 a.m. until gates close at 3 p.m., until further notice. The goal is to fill the needs of the community.
