Grande and Bieber made the announcement on social media on Monday alongside artwork for the track which is depicting two people sheltering together in a home – a clear reference to the self-isolation many people are facing during the coronavirus pandemic.

SUPERINTENDENT KEVIN RICHARDS HINTS AT KENNETT GRADUATION PLANS
This time of celebration for high school seniors has been anything but ordinary; but behind the scenes there’s a special committee working hard to make graduation more memorable for all Kennett High seniors. Kevin Richards, Superintendent of Schools tells Mount Washington Radio Group’s Ron Frizzell: “The committee has formed up of parents, teachers, administration and a school board member. We do have a few things that we’re taking a look at. Hopefully we’ll have a definitive answer here pretty soon. Within a week we’ll know one way or another. (it’s) Pretty exciting if we are able to pull off what I think we’re going to.” He goes on to say that the plans revolve around doing something on site, practicing social distancing and mitigating any groupings.
At the School Board Meeting on Monday Kevin Richards and his special committee hope to put forth their plans to gain approval and start moving forward with organizing. But for now Superintendent Richards says, “It’ll be very exciting if we can do what we hope to do. But, I don’t want to put it out there and have to reel it back because that would be bad.”

AMC AND ITS REOPENING JULY 1ST
While the Appalachian Mountain Club has made the difficult decision to close their high huts hidden in the White Mountains, they hope to have their roadside lodges open by July first. Chris Thayer, director of AMC’s Guided Outdoors says: “We’ll be navigating, you know, as we reopen our roadside lodges, Joe Dodge Lodge in Pinkham Notch, and the Highland Center in Crawford Notch we hope to open those by July first and the lead up to that as with any other enterprise organization, small business, large business, non-profit, everybody’ sort of navigating the guidance that’s provided by federal and state authorities and working judiciously on plans for reopening and in our case what that looks like come July first because what we know from this spring, you’ve seen that already, just the amount of interest in getting outdoors during this pandemic is still here, still in our region and certainly land managing partners and AMC and others have had to navigate that, towns as well in terms of that visitation and growth of visitation and we certainly don’t necessarily see that going away in summer time and the peak season.”
From their mission statement: “Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club promotes the protection, enjoyment, and understanding of the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of America’s Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions.”

GOVERNOR SUNUNU UPDATES THE STATE ABOUT AT HOME 2.0
Today’s update from Governor Sununu and team included information regarding the distribution of 40 million dollars from the Federal Cares Act money. It’s to be used for first responders, cleaning, social services, telework and childcare and how this takes some of the pressure off the state and towns.
Questions about what it would take for him to reconsider all of the Stay at Home 2.0 plans to slowly reopen the state came from the audience. Governor Sununu mentioned that they are constantly reevaluating: the capacity of hospital beds available, testing capability, which is getting stronger, and the number of positive cases. He mentioned that the reopening of some sectors will continue to be looked at as they happen and the team can see how it affects the population of New Hampshire.
Someone asked about a mandate for masks when in public places. Governor Sununu said that constituents are doing a great job policing themselves and that at this time there’s not a need to go to that length.
Are there worries about stay at home fatigue and people moving about more freely without consequence? Sununu was proud of the job citizens are doing social distancing, wearing masks when they should and that the biggest concern was people traveling up from Massachusetts to the Seabrook and Hampton areas. He said this is not the time to vacation or recreate and that to keep the spread of the virus down, people need to abide by their stay at home orders and that’s why we cannot open state attractions and public places that extensively right now.
There was a brief mention of agricultural relief efforts as well as long term care testing in the works.
There was a call with Vice President Pence recently that our governor was a part of and during those discussions they spoke about: increased capacity for testing, direct shipments of PPE to long term care facilities and how New Hampshire designed their guidelines for the initial efforts to get more surgeries and procedures happening at hospitals.
A question about dentists came up and the governor spoke about his works with the industry to reopen their practices safely. The discussion was based around the invasive nature of the dentistry business and PPE for everyone involved. Many practices gave hospitals and doctor’s offices their PPE during the initial wave of COVID-19. The guidelines are being worked on now in a very team driven manner.
State constituents were reminded of our at-risk groups, the older and compromised. The need to protect these individuals is important and the need to remember social distancing, hand washing and wearing masks in public so they don’t get sick, hospitalized or expire.
The subject of pets being able to transmit COVID-19 was broached. The suggestion is that pets remain leashed when in public and interaction with other pets and people be avoided.
A caller asked if Stay at Home 2.0 is mandatory or suggestive. Governor Sununu made it clear that this is mandatory: that he feels good about the progress that’s been made because it was a cooperative effort with each industry to make sure that they were involved in the process and willing to uphold their suggestions that would become mandated. Will police be used to enforce these mandates? If necessary, police will look at violations on a case by case basis.
How will we continue to open up if the cases of infection level off or drop? How soon do we open more? The Governor said that there were two ways to look at it: one, geographically, and the other demographically. Each of these has their drawbacks and it’s hard to enforce but both ways were doable when and if the decision has to be made. He’ll continue to work with the Attorney General and the DPH to evaluate how to move forward safely. The concern right now is how the current projected openings go and then take it day by day, week by week and see how that goes.
