–The charm of summer calls us to dine, shop, recreate and enjoy being together. It has been a year like no other for all of us. Now, there is a sense of pent-up desire to return to normal pleasantries and move ahead with the recovery.
We have not been able to gather freely for too long. Thankfully, summer 2021 will be more relaxed as we all remain diligent. The downtown retail stores and restaurants are ready and welcoming. Many long-term and new businesses have needed to take a stand and pivot, circling around to adjust their daily approach to doing business as the recovery goes on. While the idea of parklets may change for some restaurants, through the most difficult Covid guidelines, they have allowed many restaurants to maintain an acceptable level of accommodating their customers and remain in business.
