Today I received an email from Stellafane saying that they were delaying registration till June 1st instead of their normal May 1st registration day. I hope that we will be good to go in August but only time will tell. Hope all of you are safe and staying home.

Paul-
I happened to visit the Stellafane site just yesterday, wondering how they were handling things, being that they were in VT. I have a feeling they will go on with it ( assuming we don't witness a resurgence) with many restrictions. I've been asking myself if I will be going if that is the case, and right now, I'm still not sure. You?

I'll go if they have it, social distancing is fairly easy at the campsite. The slop tent might pose some risk but I have avoided that for years anyway. The big question will be how Vermont feels about hundreds of people coming in from hotspots like NYC, New Jersey, MA

Good point, Bruce. I hadn't thought about that. It becomes an especially significant point to ponder as one begins to think about ( or more particularly, need) the Port O- John. Hmm, I may sit this one out ( at home) after all.

Just don't touch anything, you'll be fine. Could be best chance yet for the TV eyepieces!

In all honesty I don't think Stellafane will go on. New England right now is a hot zone and I don't see it coming down anytime soon. Especially with governors talking about easing restrictions. At this point I am weighing my options if it does happen. I have not decided what I will be doing at this point.

Porta Party, is a concern only because its a closed area and it is not exposed to sunlight. Slop tent is also another concern, to many people touching food and I am not sure that standards of cleanliness can be kept up under the cooking conditions of Stellafane. Yes sunlight/UV kills Covid 19 but then again UV kills people to.

Finally, if restrictions are eased but not lifted a visit to a neighboring state could lead you to a 14 day quarantine once you return. I know my job requires at this time that if I leave RI that I self quarantine for 14 days before returning to work.
