||| FROM BARBARA MARRETT FOR VISITORS BUREAU |||

As many local restaurants are losing their outside seating options due to inclement weather, they received good news from Governor Jay Inslee’s office last week; table occupancy has been expanded from allowing 5 individuals from the same household per table, to 6 individuals per table who may be from different households. Tables still must be spaced 6-feet apart and restaurant capacity remains at 50%.

Many islands restaurants are struggling to keep their doors open, or are continuing to do take-out only. Please support them with your patronage or consider buying gift cards for future use.
