The Governor's Economic Re-Opening Task Force unanimously approved reopening guidance plans Tuesday (May 19) for amateur sports, overnight summer camps, day camps, acupuncture, museums, and restaurants serving wedding events.

The guidelines will now be sent to the Division of Public Health Services for approval by Benjamin Chan, MD, the state epidemiologist. They must then be signed off on by Gov. Chris Sununu before they are implemented.

“The Governor created the task force to solicit stakeholder input and formulate draft guidance for various industries across the state,” Ben Vihstadt, communications director for Sununu office said on Tuesday. “All guidance the task force passes has to then go before Governor Sununu and State Epidemiologist Ben Chan and the team at Public Health before anything is finalized.”

In addition to the universal guidance already issued, business owners, organizations, and individuals must follow sector-specific guidance, which is being released by the task force.

Although a timeline is not in place for when the guidelines will be adopted, the documents show what reopening might look like for summer camps, caterers, and amateur athletes.
