Tierra del Sol Golf Shop Warning
 
Although there is a request for patrons to the Tierra del Sol golf shop to wear a mask prior to entry, staff do not follow this recommendation. I have played there a couple of times and the same staff member has failed to wear a mask. A small shop with hundreds of entries by patrons, I would think this would be prime example for policy compliance. With the publicity in the local newspaper and postings on entry, this policy is not being followed at this venue. Enter at your own risk.

Those people come in contact with hundreds every day. There only asking for it.

oh good grief...if you're worried you wear the mask. as long as the salesperson doesn't sneeze or cough on you you''re good.

As to Lottoguy....no ones asking for it...the likelyhood of someone catching the virus from a shopper wearing a mask is about nil. Please go panic somewhere else.

Ok everybody, don't worry since the guy won't sneeze or cough and its only a concern if it is on you. It doesn't matter if its a small room. He will only be around a few hundred people a day. Nothing here.

Boo to any person who chooses to endanger us by not wearing a mask.. Dr Fauci an epidemiologist says wear the mask, then wear the mask! Golf shop people are not Doctors

If you’re that concerned, would Dr Fauci recommend going to a pro shop to get your clubs regripped during Covid?

So I guess you won't be playing there anymore...huh?

It is possible the employee has a medical condition that prevents him/her from wearing a mask.

I would stand very far away and ask the person to either put on a mask or call their supervisor over. If that failed I would go directly to the starter shack and explain to the starter that I couldn’t check in because of the mask-less employee. I would also ask to speak to the club professional. The one thing I absolutely would not do is go anywhere close to the mask-less employee.

So those of you fearful of those without masks....you disinfect every piece of mail? you wear gloves to the grocery store? you wear gloves to pump gas? you go shopping where others don't wear masks? you eat out? it's endless...if no one sneezes/coughs around you or on what you but or bring into your home then your concern is only partial....therefore irrational.

You can always just buy everything over the internet and have an expensive disinfectant booth set up at your house. If you are going to complain about the maskless then stop leaving your house as there are chances of getting the virus from other things that are just as likely to give you the virus.

Sir/Madam. I don't know how old you are, but it is not good to be inside a building with people not wearing masks. It is extremely dangerous for those who are over 65. We have learned mail is NOT a problem or a worry as a source of transfer. We do not eat out and have not eaten out since the early part of March when two close friends went with a group of ten to celebrate St. Patrick's day and the waitress had cold like symptoms. Six out of the ten contracted Covid-19 here in The Villages. One friend was in Ocala Hospital for ten days intubated. Her sister became so sick that someone had to take care of her at home and then she had to be transferred to the hospital and rehydrated.

Now that the Covid-19 virus from England is here, that version is EXTREMELY more contagious, not more deadly but more contagious. We do have the hope of the availability of blood serum from those who survived the virus and of course the vaccine is slowly becoming available to us. It is wise to be very careful now. There is light at the end of the tunnel, but the cases and the deaths have greatly increased in the last seven days around HERE.

The virus lives in the nasal oral cavity of those infected and they may show no symptoms. To older people, death is usually brought by pneumonia or some form of unusual clotting. And as you know, you die without the solace of any loved ones present. This is not ANYTHING TO MESS WITH.

The only mask that can filter out the tiny size of the Coronavirus is a N95 mask - the type used by health care professionals. The face diapers you see people wearing will not. If wearing a face diaper makes you feel better, just do it. But don't expect it to be much help.

You answered your own question. The sign says masks REQUESTED. NOT required.

I agree with you. Just like people wearing masks in their cars!! If the virus was in the air, we would have all gotten sick. Over it!!
