Community COVID Information
Michigan is currently at STEP 4 - Fully Open
- Face masks are strongly suggested for indoor spaces according to the Berrien County Health Department.
- All businesses open indoor and outdoor at full capacity.
As of June 22, 2021, capacity for both indoor and outdoor settings will increase to 100% and the state will no longer require residents to wear a face mask. However, please note that social distancing and mask wearing is still recommended for people who are not fully vaccinated.
Michigan may be back to 100% capacity but many of our businesses are struggling to fully staff. When patronizing our local establishments, we kindly ask that you choose to be respectful, patient and kind.
