Stay at home means stay at home...I would love to hear why anyone thinks they have the right not to do so..Other than emergency or gathering essentials
I'm an avid golfer and having any of the golf courses open just encourages people to risk their health and the health others

Florida is under a lock down and you are not supposed to be out unless getting essentials or golfing. Guess you were finished golfing.

well now you know that having ice cream under the shade of a tree is non-essential....and BTW, there's only one sheriff....the rest are called deputies

Isn't Dunkin Donuts across the street from Culvers? Thought so.....A friendly reminder of our quarantine doesn't hurt! Stay safe!

I saw you guys having a beer and having a good time. I thought . . ."good for them.!" When I saw you, you were in the postal station parking lot so hopefully the ambassador didn't over extend his responsibility of the golf course. Maybe you just moved to the parking lot from where you were. Anyway, I saw three guys appropriately distanced having a good "guy" time.

Here in the UK we are not allowed to ‘gather’ with anyone other than one person, hence a ‘gathering’ of two persons only. We had nearly 1000 deaths from Covid-19 yesterday. We are following the advice here 100%. It’s to stop the spread. What exactly don’t you understand about this situation?

Let me tell you why!!! There are many, I repeat, many players who continue to gather after they play 18 holes to “shoot the poop”. People, who don’t play golf, are reporting them. Also, the Morse family is getting THOUSANDS of calls, emails, letters every day from people who think the golf courses should be closed. So, if you want the courses to get closed, keep gathering. If you want them to open, go home and gather.

The problem is a lot of people are doing that. There is a Thursday night group that bring their lawn chairs there and sit in the parking in a group eating. The soon we all stay home the soon we can get back to work

We had a similar experience yesterday playing at Glenview except we were in the parking lot tallying up scores but also keeping our distance. We were told by an Ambassador that TV would shut down golf if we were allowed to do that.
