Graduation Celebrations Are Essential

Essential may not be a word commonly used for Graduation Celebrations. It is still an apt term to use for something we use to make a momentous achievement in a person’s life. Regardless of the level of education, the field of study or the current situation celebrating graduation is important. From kindergarten to college graduation, completing any level of school or training is a milestone for any of us. It is important to recognize the work, the care, and the time it took to achieve this accomplishment. Today there are many challenges in the world, but recognizing achievement is a bedrock of our society…or it should be.

How Do We Celebrate Graduations Safely Today?

In many respects, it is no different today than when our current situation began. Proper personal hygiene, limiting the size of gatherings and staying home when you don’t feel well have ALWAYS been important. Who remembers being told to “wash up before dinner”?  Mom knew that germs and nasty things were on your hands, and you were about to use those hands to feed yourself. Throughout the history of mankind, there have been periods of health emergencies, and we learn a little more from each one. We will do the same now, and life will go on. Hopefully, with some lessons learned. Graduation celebrations are no exception.

Celebrations Continue Regardless

We all know you can’t keep humans apart for long. It is natural to want interaction with other humans. That is how parties became a $5 billion dollar industry.

As we reopen our society and economy, people will NEED to be around people they love and care about. Regardless of risk. To help out as you begin to plan, here are a couple of suggestions for keeping your guests safe.

1. Give out small hand sanitizer bottles as a party favor.
2. Limit your guest list to family and close friends. Your invitation can even include a line about not attending if you feel ill.
3. Pick a clean, private location for your graduation celebration. Better to celebrate where only your guests will be around.
4. Have a touchless thermometer available upon entry.

You can also take other precautions like requesting masks to be worn or limiting the duration of your function. If you address the limitations and risks ahead of time, you can limit them. If you start out reminding people of proper health precautions, you can be sure most will happily pitch in.
