Statement from Bill Waring, President of De Dutch:
“Like many of you we here at De Dutch have been struggling in coming to grips with the COVID-19 pandemic. The uncertainty of only a couple of weeks ago has developed very quickly into the cold reality of today. Our concern for the health and wellbeing of the De Dutch Family, which includes our guests, has always been paramount.
It would be disingenuous for us to suggest that the financial implications were anything less than worrisome, we do not have deep pockets. But the issue here is far greater than any of these concerns, it is a societal matter that requires all of us to make tough choices. As of Tuesday, March 17th all De Dutch locations will self-quarantine, (in other words we will be closed) for at least two weeks, longer if necessary. We will keep you all advised via social media.
On behalf of myself and the De Dutch Family, Thank you for your understanding and support. . .be safe and healthy.”
