So, is your strategy here no school until a vaccine? Not putting words in your month - just wondering. I just think it is crazy to consider no school due to a virus that by and large does not effect children. CDC has total deaths in the US thru 7/11 for age 0-24 at 188. CDC I bet 0-18 is half that #. How many suicides I wonder. What do you think the long term mental health ramifications will be? Nope, I am 100000% in favor of opening schools. For any teacher or employee of school who is at risk, stay home. Plenty of young kids looking for teaching jobs. Cannot educate via zoom, kids need to learn in person and have social interaction...huge fan of getting schools open ASAP. With, of course, all safety & risk mitigated as best that it can be. the long term mental health issue is a mega concern. Overdoses were up for the quarter and covid was really only 1 month in the quarter.....beyond scary to think the issues that could arise. Agree with MB about the need to open, but needs to be local decisions on how/when to open safely not mandated from DC without a plan under threat of defunding. It will not be as easy as just opening the doors and it’s not going to be the same as what it was, but the online experience itself is clearly not enough. We are in a tough spot because because our student is high risk and they don’t really seem to know how to handle the special needs population in general so I don’t really have a clue what it will look like for us yet.

Zenny, I heard you and my spotlight on protecting those that need to be protected would be very important....S Jr should be taken care of, be able to be educated and stimulated socially as well...hopefully our educators will figure out a way to do so.

Stars & Stripes Brewing in Freeport got caught in an awkward situation (bait & switch?) and are taking the high road and just closing for the day tomorrow. They are veteran owned and focused.
”Tomorrow, Wednesday 7/22/20, we will be closed.
Due to a unauthorized political event being held at our brewery will we not open our doors tomorrow.
Stars & Stripes Brewing was created to support Veterans, services members and the community. We do not support or take sides in political agendas.
We were asked in this particular situation if a group of women who support a political agenda could enjoy a beer at our brewery. We believe everyone has equal rights as they should, and do not deny anyone from entering our facility. Now we see that there is a political reasoning to be here and we again do not endorse any political party nor view.
As always we appreciate all our community, Veterans, and patriotic support for our Brewery.
We will be back open Thursday 2-9PM.
Thanks for your understanding!”
if you want to see Lara Trump (Eric’s wife) then head down to Jimmy the Greeks in OOB tomorrow.

Seems a bit masochistic for you. I love the guy standing in the middle of no where wearing a mask.

Because it’s actually what I thought was a clever commentary on Trump’s misogyny. As for the mask, I doubt he was in the middle of nowhere and better to err on the side of caution, don’t you think?

They were not "mislead". They knew they were coming. They changed their mind when cancel culture kicked in.

Planned for Wednesday, the Nadeaus had been told that members of the campaign, including Lara Trump, would be coming in for a beer and would get pizza from a neighboring restaurant...... “From what we understood it was a group of women traveling on a Trump bus that wanted to come in and grab a beer.” Brad Nadeau.... After being deluged with negative comments online, Mr Nadeau, an Iraq War veteran, called the campaign and cancelled the event on Tuesday. There were cancelled by the cancel culture. The Glade Monkey probably led the cancel brigade.
