Mask change for outdoor dining welcome news

ELKTON — Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan’s announcement that the mandate to wear masks in outdoor dining areas was lifted is welcome news to Cecil County restaurants.
“It’s always great to make a move in the direction of normalcy,” said Lee Lewis, general manager of Elk River Brewing Company. “This is huge and very helpful for us.”
Even as the rate of COVID infections continues to fluctuate in the county, residents continue to get vaccinated and restrictions are slowly being eased.
Debbie Brown, executive director of the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce, also greeted the news happily.
“We are excited for Governor Hogan’s decision to lift outdoor mask requirements and ease restrictions on outdoor dining,” Brown said via email. “It is a vital part of our community to be social and connect with each other, while also adhering to the mandates of being safe for ourselves and others around us.”
