Golf has stayed opened throughout without mandatory wearing of masks. If a new sign appears at the sign in desk that says masks are now mandatory to play, I’m guessing golfers will adhere or be subject to an Ambassador ejecting them from the course. If the pool tells me I must wear a mask, there are plenty of companies now making them out of swimsuit material, I’ll do that too and instead of swimming laps, I’ll use a kickboard. Adjust, adapt and overcome. I have no problem adhering to rules if it allows me to get out in the fresh air and use facilities that I don’t own. It’s a privilege, not an entitlement.

In today’s environment, I personally am taking precautions to protect others. I wear both a face mask and gloves, social distance and shop only when necessary. I try to minimize risk to myself and others. It’s the same reason I buckle my seatbelt even in the backseat as a passenger. It’s not just for my safety but for everyone else in the car. During this time, we are all on this car ride and we are all precious cargo. It’s up to everyone to act responsibly in the interests of society as a whole. Adhere to the rules. Cooperate and graduate.
