VISITOR GUIDELINES UPDATE
While the mask mandate has been lifted in Alameda County, Chabot’s mask policy remains the same until further notice. All visitors ages 2+ are required to continue wearing masks at the Center unless eating or drinking. Guided by our best understanding of current science, this supports the health of our community and allows us to provide fun and engaging learning experiences. We will closely monitor data and guidance from local health officials and the CDC as our policy evolves. Please be sure to check the website before your visit for the most current information.
