Ontario Temporarily Moving to Modified Step Two of the Roadmap to Reopen
TORONTO — In response to recent trends that show an alarming increase in COVID-19 hospitalizations, the Ontario government, in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health, is temporarily moving the province into Step Two of its Roadmap to Reopen with modifications that take into account the province’s successful vaccination efforts. These time-limited measures will help blunt transmission and prevent hospitals from becoming overwhelmed as the province continues to accelerate its booster dose rollout. As part of the province’s response to the Omicron variant, starting January 5, students will pivot to remote learning with free emergency child care planned for school-aged children of health care and other eligible frontline workers.

Trillium Trails is included as one of these settings, as we are an event space.
For the period between September 22 and October 12, 2021, it is intended that people attending wedding or funeral receptions at meeting or event spaces will be able to provide a negative rapid antigen COVID-19 test from no more than 48 hours before the event as an alternative to proof of vaccination.
Proof of vaccination or negative covid test will need to be shown before entry, if patron has neither, they will not be able to enter.

How do I prove I am fully vaccinated if I am from out of province or out of country?
Individuals visiting from outside the province or the country will be required to show their full vaccination status and identification to enter prescribed settings.
Ontario will develop and provide additional tools to improve user experience, efficiency, and business supports in the coming weeks, including ensuring verification of fully vaccinated individuals from outside of province or country.
What if I don’t want to disclose my vaccination status?
It is the discretion of the individual to determine whether they would like to disclose their vaccination status. Should they make the decision not to divulge this information, they will not be permitted to access settings that require proof of vaccination.
Will proof of vaccination be required to attend weddings and other organized events?
For the period between September 22nd and October 12th, 2021, people attending indoor wedding and funeral receptions at indoor meeting or event spaces will be able to provide a negative rapid antigen COVID-19 test from no more than 48 hours before the event, as an alternative to the vaccine certificate showing they are fully vaccinated. These rapid antigen tests must be privately purchased.

Re: Trillium Trails Covid-19/Pandemic Policy update March 21, 2021
Firstly, we would like to thank you for continuing to remain with us during this difficult time. As we all have been navigating through Covid-19, we have tried to be fair and understanding to everyone.
We will continue to host weddings and events, green, orange and yellow response under health department requirements. If you made an overpayment due to the governed 50 persons in an attendance, we will refund the difference based on the final invoice of food choices and packages. Keeping in consideration we are keeping our minimum of 50 persons guaranteed with this mandate. When the mandate is released it will be a minimum of 100 persons guaranteed.
We will not be moving dates unless we are closed or in red response with regulations of less than 50 persons, due to the Government/health department. If you are choosing to move your date into 2022. The $1500 non-refundable deposit upon signing your contract; for holding your original date is not carried forward. The new 2022 date will require a $2500 non-refundable deposit, to book the new date. The deadline is six months before your wedding date. The remaining deposits paid will be carried towards the new date.
Cancelling your wedding date falls under our regular cancellation policy in your contract. You can move your date within 2021 and deposits will carry with you.
Thank you for your loyalty,
Randy Richards and Ron Richards
