COVID-19 guidelines for visiting OBA offices for seminars/schools/meetings

Updated Aug. 4, 2020

 As of June 1, Oklahoma entered Phase 3 of the reopening process, which removed limits on group gathering sizes. However, the OBA is still limiting enrollment for live events to allow for social distancing.

In the best interest of everyone involved, we will follow the guidelines below for indoor live events:

  • Please enter and exit the OBA/Harris Event Center using the south doors.
  • Attendees are required to wear a mask in adherence to the Oklahoma City guidelines, which are currently as follows (pulled directly from OKC.gov):

Face covering requirements

Everyone in Oklahoma City age 11 and up is required to wear a face covering, like a mask or face shield, in indoor public spaces. There are some exceptions.

Face coverings are required only in indoor spaces open to the public, including private property.

The face covering must cover both the nose and mouth.
