Smile Put on your thinking caps !

I've kept a journal (for the grands and great grands someday) on the "pandemic". At first I left out events and other happenings germane only to The Villages, but now decided I wanted to go back and note some things specific to only the villages. I don't need any exact dates (unless someone has kept exact records !) but looking for:
. approximate period the squares were closed, and then when approximately when they "opened" but "tickets/reservations" were required to attend the evening music ?
. anyone remember the approximate dates that the pins were permanently attached in the holes on the greens... apparently the thought at the time was the covid virus could live on metal so no pins could be removed, and anyone remember the approximate date that the pins were returned to normal ?

I would appreciate any other approximate dates as I am now sorry I only recorded nation wide things and now wish I'd written more about Florida and where we live here. All I remember is we were free of all kinds of restrictions much sooner than family and friends in other states... and I think our children were back in school sooner too. Thanks for helping with any time periods you may have noted in your journals or diaries... Thanks !
