The State of AZ may cancel outside events yet, but the moving onto others events weekends is hard on their weekends. They wont have but 25% attendance I think, but that's the business of creating business with vendors as a product. Rocks and Gems are a tiny niche market of the entertainment business that feeds the hospitality business in these resort towns.
Come on down to UV sterilized desert towns (& bring your OWN mask & sanitizer/gloves because we are NOT washing possible CCPV off every rock after somebody paws it). Our massive offerings of millions of items are waiting, but please take care of you if you worry. I mean, if Arizona REQUIRES full sterilization after trying on Rings or whatever to stop the CCPV, we will i.e. let sit 3 days or slosh bleach over, whatever the scamdemic requires.
Any regulations can be worked around but a totalitarian lockout is not. Not like there is tour business in ice or selling claims in the winter. I will say last year was a good, busier year out here mining. Keep your fingers crossed they don't try to shut all venues down to get more buyers for the big shows later for regulars/residents, contract obligations. This year has be a fine example of politics.
The lockdown has starved every aspect of independents, not online paying to use those services, and the American support network of stores and restaurants.
