Staff explained to Dan that he would need to wear a mask if he wanted to resume community outings, but he continued to push the masks away. After watching his friends go out for two weeks Dan leaned his head toward the mask when it was offered on Aug 3rd. Dan and his friends enjoy spendIng time on the water. Dan spent the morning at Hopyard Farm, on the Rappahannock River, that first day out. In the past two weeks Dan and his friends have enjoyed waterfront adventures at Lake Mooney, City Dock, Fairview Beach Yacht Club, and Mountain Run Lake.
