Local chambers of commerce are urging patrons to respect the wishes of local businesses that are continuing with mask mandates even after the state’s mandate expired on April 16.
Nonie’s Restaurant and Bakery owner Greg Smith said he hadn’t noticed an increase in unmasked patrons since the statewide mask ordinance expired, but that his business was continuing with all COVID-19 prevention protocols regardless. Most people continue to wear their masks when visiting, he said. A share of people refuse, which sometimes prompts Smith himself to explain to them that Nonie’s requires masks for the safety of employees and others. The restaurant continues to require masks, and is keeping Plexiglas barriers and distanced seating arrangements in place. “I don’t see any reason to stop,” he said. “This thing’s not over,” he said.

Rosemary James of Dublin was decked out in her rummage sale finest Saturday – a pair of jeans she picked up for the purpose of painting them with bright flowers, and a pair of UGG boots she got new at a previous Dublin Community Church rummage sale.
“Brand new,” she emphasized. “Still in the box, new.”
It was a windy enough April day to send the occasional box or piece of clothing flying, but that didn’t deter bargain hunters from attending the church’s rummage twice-annual sale looking for bargains – a tradition that’s been ongoing so long, no one knows for sure how long it’s been going on, said Pastor TraceyMay Kalvaitis.
