On its first day of partial re-opening, the City of Pittsburgh announced which summer activities can go forward and which can’t — like July 4 festivities and races.
As Allegheny County and much of Southwestern Pennsylvania moved to the yellow phase of reopening Friday, Gov. Tom Wolf announced that 12 additional counties, including neighboring Beaver, will move to the yellow phase on May 22.
“To Pennsylvanians in the 49 counties in the yellow phase, I cannot emphasize enough that you continue to practice social distancing,” Wolf said in a press conference Friday.
The City of Pittsburgh shed some light Friday on how a number of summer activities will be impacted by the pandemic.
The city noted a number of activities can’t comply with distancing requirements and will not be held, including July 4 fireworks, city-sponsored concerts, races, city summer camps and Citiparks youth baseball.
