Default Entertainment on the Squares

Question: I live in St Augustine and have a second home in TV. Can anyone tell me when they anticipate resuming the live entertainment on the squares?

Thanks

Talked to a singer yesterday who has connections in the local entertainment world. She said it looks like August right now but could even be late July.

Until there is an actual announcement from the people at the Entertainment Dept, who books the acts, no one will know. I wouldn't be surprised if the recent spike in cases in FL causes a further delay.

At one time the rumor was October...now the rumor has it earlier

It was just announced that two movie theatres in TV are opening up at 50%...

The Saturday Farmer's Market in Brownwood is back

Dancing on the squares is still anyone's guess

Of course that could change.
Yep, it did change. Hope this one is right. Eventually someone will be.

The percentage of cases has held steady. Higher numbers are the result of more testing, not more cases. Doubt a further delay will result.

Call it a protest, but unlike a protest keep your distance and don't destroy anything.
