Hi everyone,
As we head toward the beginning of June, it's important to inform you all of the latest information regarding rules and regulations for COVID-19 in Rhode Island.
During the Governor's press conference today she announced the extension of Executive Order 20-36 to May 31, with an intention to formally enter Phase II on June 1. The domestic travel restrictions remain in place for the remainder of May but are expected to be lifted on June 1 (unless you are coming from a location under a stay at home order).
Additional details regarding Phase I and II guidelines can be found at https://www.reopeningri.com/. Additional industry-specific items will be added next week. We remain in constant communication with the DBR regarding the Phase II golf protocols, advocating for additional relief for our industry and will keep you updated on next steps. Please keep in mind that many of the most difficult and frustrating restrictions are not golf specific, but part of the state's comprehensive reopening protocols for all of Rhode Island.
Enjoy the weekend,
Bob
Robert Ward
Executive Director
Rhode Island Golf Association
