Are the Landings Marinas closed for business?

Starting today (March 27) both Landings Harbor and Delegal Creek Marina will be closed for business until further notice. One of our Marinas employees has reported that he may have COVID-19 and is in quarantine. This means that other employees, who worked closely with him must also self-quarantine. The offices and stores at both Marinas are being professionally disinfected by a contractor this weekend, along with all other TLA buildings. We look forward to re-opening all facilities in a safe, and health-conscious manner as soon as possible.

Is it true that someone in The Landings has COVID-19? I heard that The Marshes of Skidaway recently sent a message to residents about this.

No cases of COVID-19 in The Landings have been officially confirmed to The Landings Association, and we have been told locations of cases by neighborhood will not be made public. However, the Association continues to encourage residents to operate as if everyone is a carrier of COVID-19. Asymptomatic carriers are the best example of why we should approach this pandemic with an abundance of caution and adhere to social distancing at all times. Social distancing and frequent, thorough handwashing are our best defense against transmitting this virus.
