It's not a surprise when one of our events gets canceled due to COVID-19 when the host/organizer is in one of the highest at-risk age brackets and most of the attendees will also be in that same age bracket. I'll admit I'm disappointed...I had hopes of attending FCR...but I understand completely why Syd made the decision.


At one of our events early in the year, i was pretty much the only person wearing a mask. I saw more masks in May, but it was far from universal. More masks appeared in June, and even more in July.
I intend to attend the FlyBy and I will still be wearing a mask. I know the arguments for and against doing so. I've not tested positive for the virus and if I thought for a microsecond I was, I wouldn't attend. But out of respect for my MSTA friends, I'll continue to wear a mask around folks that I don't see regularly. I'll sanitize my hands often and encourage others to do the same. I'll maintain as much distancing as reasonably possible and hope everyone else does too.

Well said as usual Geoffrey.  Even if I'm hanging around outside with a cold beer I think I will be wearing a mask and can lower it to drink occasionally.
