Green is pretty much life as normal for me, minus sporting events plus a mask. I assume I'll be able to skate (have been the past couple weeks anyway) and go to the gym again (its been secretly open but I'm lazy). Bars and restaurants if I so choose.
Same for me. I'll handle whatever restrictions my gym has in place, can't wait to get back. My kids' gym has reopened, not sure about my son's baseball league. Maybe we will wait until next year.

I have no reservations with eating outside. Did last weekend in OH after golfing actually. But I'll probably wait a bit before eating inside. Baseball season starts next week now for the summer ball team I coach. So I'll get right into that but wait a bit before I fully declare myself back

We got the OK to basically play youth soccer with limited spectators, copious amounts of hand sanitizer, ball cleaning, and no handshakes once we go to green.
Seems odd to me to take the kind of precautions such as hand sanitizer, ball cleaning and no handshakes in a contact sport... Like, it's fine to be close to other person to try to take the ball off them. Touch them in play. Have heavy breathing near each other. But handshakes? That's too far...

The neighborhood baseball league will be starting up soon as well. Kids will have to wear face masks when they're not on the field. I don't envy the coaches trying to enforce that with a bunch of 8 year olds.

What is the post green plan?
My understanding is there are 3 phases:

Phase 1 was the complete shutdown pretty much.

Phase 2 is what we are in now, where there are still guidelines colored as red, yellow and green.

Phase 3 is you still need to be safe, but it's "life as normal" for the most part.

in NC, our plan is litearlly three phases. Original phase I guess was Phase 0, Phase 1 was some minor openings and outdoor gatherings of 10 allowed (happened a few weeks ago), Phase 2 went into effect Friday and allows for more openings and businesses to run at 50% capacity I think, Phase 3 is gonna come in a few weeks and will be more openings like gyms and stuff

I'm not sure what post-Phase 3 is though. Maybe one of the other 30 NC residents here knows

While I enjoy eating outdoors, in the short term I see no compelling reason to eat outside amongst other people when I can do that at home or at a park or whatever. Or continue to make food at home and save an assload of money.

I think you could convince this gentleman to imbibe outdoors sooner than later but I'll be happy to let other people be guinea pigs about outdoor drinking until it is time to roll tide.

I had to go to Wheeling today and stopped at a Walmart on the way home. Very few masks in sight. Did WVA have a mask requirement at any time?

Outdoor dining for me should actually be read as "I'll eat some food while I'm drinking on a patio with friends"

Friend of mine made a petition about baseball coaches being required to wear face masks while coaching in Ohio. I get it, 95 degree day that's going to suck but- seriously, that's the hill you're going to die, err... petition on?

My gym talked about reopening (which won't be until at least July). It's going to require reservations ahead of time and severely reduced capacity. As someone who works in a schedule, this sounds great to me. Until they start charging more...

Our gym at the office (it's just a couple big rooms with workout equipment in them) opened back up today. I've never used them before, but I might start now. I'd much rather be at a place that only 10-20 people use rather than 100-200.

Oklahoma seems to be on the complete other side of this. Nothing is spiking since we re-opened, yet. So I am hopeful.

Yeah I'm fine with reduced capacity at the gym. Make it permanent.

First confirmation I've seen that PA's schools will be physically back in some form in the fall: https://triblive.com/local/regional/pen ... fall-2020/
Schooling will look different,” Wolf said. “You’ll probably have more online learning and maybe less classroom learning, there might be fewer students in each classroom.”

The Pennsylvania Department of Education is expected to release specific guidance early next week that will address issues like online learning, classroom capacity, operating school buses, sports and extracurricular activities, as well as other logistics, Wolf said.
I'm fine with that, curious how it will be implemented. Interesting summer for school officials

Our school district is going to be presenting multiple options so that we’re ready for anything. I’m very interested to see what would be available.

Good to hear. The 1A doesn't mean that anyone can do anything they want because of their beliefs. No one is telling them that they can't practice their religion. In all actuality, it's upholding the 1st because it's not putting one religion (or any religion) over the safety of others.

WHO says you only need to wear a mask if you’re taking care of a person with Covid... wonder if CDC will follow suit.
