Summer camps and amusement parks will soon be re-opened in New York State.

Governor Andrew Cuomo has announced that starting March 26th, indoor family entertainment centers and places of amusement will be able to re-open with a 25 percent capacity limit.

On April 9th, outdoor amusement parks will be able to operate at 33 percent capacity.

Several guidelines will be put in place at such establishments, including face coverings and social distancing for staff and customers.

Cuomo says that summer day and overnight camps will likely reopen in June, but that continues to be evaluated.
