JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri lawmakers wrapped up their work Friday by passing bills allowing people to vote by mail because of the coronavirus and ramping up criminal penalties in response to an uptick in violent crime in the state's biggest cities. Legislators signed off on the special voting provisions for the 2020 elections shortly before their deadline to pass bills in an unusual session that was interrupted for several weeks because of concerns about the virus that causes COVID-19. Voters currently can request absentee ballots only if they provide an excuse for why they can’t vote in person. Illness is one option, but the law isn’t explicit on whether the illness excuse covers healthy voters concerned about catching or spreading COVID-19. Under the bill sent to Republican Gov. Mike Parson, people considered at-risk of the coronavirus — those age 65 and older, living in a longterm care facility or with certain existing health problems — could vote absentee without needing to have their ballot notarized. Anyone else could cast a mail-in ballot but would need to get it notarized. The bill passed with bipartisan support but received mixed reviews from both parties. Republicans said it doesn't include enough restrictions to ensure election security, and Democrats said it has too many rules. “When you are not wanting to go to the polls because you are either ill or fearful of becoming ill, but then you have to go get a notary to be able to not go to the polls, it doesn't really fix the problem,” House Democratic Minority Leader Crystal Quade said. Republican Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft on Friday said he no longer supported the measure after lawmakers stripped a contested photo ID requirement out of it. Lawmakers returned to the Capitol to work on the state budget and other policies days before Parson lifted his statewide stay-at-home order in early May. Members of the public were allowed in the Capitol to watch debate but were encouraged to stay home, prompting concern from some lawmakers about lack of public involvement in crafting major policy changes. Both lawmakers and visitors were quizzed on their health and had their temperatures checked before they could enter the building. “The work that we did here See Voting, Page 5

You May Never See Another Coach Like Wesley Wayne Croy Trenton Mainstay Retiring After 15-Year Run At Alma Mater SETH HERROLD @HERROLDTIMES
In the fall of 2007 I sat across the desk from Trenton head football coach Wes Croy in his “office� - if that’s what you want to call the old weight shed west of the high school. In Croy’s hand was the scouting report for the upcoming game. For a moment he paused and his eyes peered over the report at the new sportswriter in town. I wasn’t a calendar year removed from my last classes at Northwest Missouri State at this point. For a handful of weeks, Croy had simply handed over his report for me to use for my weekly football preview. But something I had written in the previous preview had stuck with him. Slowly he turned through the pages. The cover sheet, Trenton’s probable starters, the opposing probable starters. When he got to the play sheets he stopped. He un-did the staple, removed a hearty chunk of the report and handed me the rest. The previous sportswriter - Greg Dalrymple - now an assistant coach with the football team - would inform me days later that Croy felt like I was importing too much of the Trenton game plan into my preview. :: R-T :: Last week the Trenton R-9 School Board officially divvied up the retiring athletic director’s job. Croy formally turned in a letter of retirement back in January, signaling an impending end to a 15-year stay at his alma mater. His retirement becomes official on July 1. I covered Croy’s football and track and field teams for seven years before he stepped away from coaching to take on the AD job at Trenton. I then routinely communicated with him in his new role for the next six years. Over 13 years I interacted with Croy almost daily through the school years and off and on in the summers as well. I started out as a reporter he didn’t entirely trust and now consider him to be one of my very best friends. I don’t claim to know Croy better than anyone else, but I have plenty of stories. These are just a handful of my favorites. :: R-T :: The 2007 season ended with Trenton bowing out of the state playoffs in the quarterfinals at Blair Oaks. Trenton didn’t score until there was just

4:44 left in the game. The first touchdown cut Blair Oaks’ lead to 15-6. Croy sent his offense out to go for two and when the Bulldogs didn’t get in, the game was basically over. Croy was upset the following morning when I went to interview him. The somber Q and A came to a close, at least in my mind. But Croy asked if I was going to ask about going for two instead of kicking the extra point and trying for the two later. Trenton hadn’t gotten into the end zone again. I didn’t think it was a big factor I told him. “It’s your job,� Croy said. Even in the face of the toughest defeat of his career, Croy was there, trying to be accountable for his actions. I have always admired that about him. :: R-T :: The following year Croy was back in the state playoffs as a district runner-up after MSHSAA expanded the district format. Trenton played at Lawson, a district champion, in the first round. It might have been Croy’s finest coaching performance ever. With the third quarter all but over, Trenton faced third and long with a furious wind at its back. Croy had his team punt on the third down to pin Lawson deep. It was a bold move in a tightly-contested playoff game, but it worked. After scoring and getting a twopoint conversion with over four minutes left in the game, Trenton led by seven points. But lightning struck and delayed the game. Coming out of the delay, Croy had his kicker kick a squib into the Lawson front line. The ball bounced around before Trenton ultimately retained possession and ran out the clock for another playoff victory. “It wasn’t a designed onside kick, but it worked out that way,� Croy laughed afterwards. :: R-T :: In 2012, one of Croy’s old friends, Erik Coffey, joined the coaching staff. A few games into the season, one of the biggest changes noticeable was that the Bulldogs had a package of screen passes incorporated into their offense. Croy’s trademark ground game suddenly had a secondary attack. “Man those screen passes are a nice little addition,� I told Croy. “Yeah,� Croy said sounding a little disgruntled. “Coach Coffey brought those.� “What’s the problem, They’re working,� I replied. “I used to be able to fit all the plays I called on a note card,� Croy said. “With adding those screens, now I have to turn my note card over.�

:: R-T :: During that 2012 season, Trenton traveled over three hours to get to Carthage, IL for a game at Illini West. The Bulldogs lost 48-0 and the bus got lost on the way home. It wasn’t Croy’s favorite road trip ever, to say the least. While in Croy’s office getting quotes for my story the following Monday, I told him about my own perils from that trip. I rode to that game with my Dad and on a clover leaf exit I mentioned he might want to start slowing down. He took that as a challenge and maintained his speed around the hairpin. “Seth,� Croy said when I finished my story, “I wish I had been in that truck with you... and I wish it would have crashed off the road.� Fun fact about that game: Trenton’s only real chance to score came at the end of the first half. The Bulldogs had first and goal but got flagged twice, once for being offside and once for offensive pass interference. As Trenton headed to the locker room down 32-0, Croy grabbed the officials. “We’re pretty bad tonight, but I’m not sure we are the worst thing on this field.� The second half opened with a 15yard penalty on Trenton.

About a year later Croy and I were standing in the gym. I was out there to do a story on some summer program or something and he had caught me and brought me in. “Notice anything different,� he asked.

Red Door Grill has been around for a while now, but only last fall did they open a location in Liberty, making the eatery more accessable to those of us living significantly north. It is fantastic, though. While they are open for multiple meals per day, my favorite there is brunch. Things are opening back up but that doesn’t mean you have to rush down there for a meal. This is a standing recommendation and honestly, the best brunch you will get there is on a Sunday when the Chiefs have a noon kickoff.
Harvick Wins As NASCAR Makes Return 10-Week Layoff Ends With Race At Darlington
DARLINGTON, S.C. (AP) — This was a 400-mile drive unlike any other in modern day NASCAR. The grandstands were completely empty. There wasn’t a single tailgate inside the track. Everyone wore face coverings — some with the team logos, others opting for plain dispos-
able medical masks. It was nothing close to the corporate sponsorship, pomp and patriotic traveling circus that symbolizes NASCAR. But when the engines fired at Darlington Raceway following a 10-week layoff during the coronavirus pandemic, it turned into a regular old race. Kevin Harvick beat Alex Bowman to win NASCAR's first race back, a spectacle closely watched to see if the largest motorsports series in the United States could successfully return to the track. “I just want to thank everybody from NASCAR and all the teams for letting us do
what we do,� Harvick said. “I didn’t think it was going to be that different, then we won and it’s dead silent out here. We miss the fans.� It was a crucial gamble for NASCAR, which had to get back to the track to stave off financial ruin. With races on hold, no money was coming into the sport whatsoever and the NASCAR business model can not sustain the lack of revenue. NASCAR developed a health plan approved by officials in both South Carolina and North Carolina and scheduled seven races over the next 11 days at two tracks. As other
states began to open, the series tacked more races to fill the calendar with 20 events across seven Southern states between now and June 21. There will be no spectators at least through that date. This first event was called the “The Real Heroes 400� and dedicated to health care workers fighting the coronavirus pandemic. The names of health care workers across the country were substituted for the drivers’ name above the door on each of the 40 cars. Harvick's car honored Dr. Joshua Hughes, an emergency medicine physician in the Charlotte area.

ACROSS MISSOURI
Missourians Struggle To Connect With Senior Loved Ones During COVID-19 Pandemic COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Laura Kitzi and her mother, Lorane Kinney, like to share. Whether it’s a conversation about exciting news, a trip to Midway Antique Mall or an episode of “The Walking Dead,� Kitzi enjoys these things best when she is with her mom. But this routine has hit a COVID-19 roadblock. Kitzi is one of many Missouri residents navigating the realities of staying in touch with an elderly loved one during the pandemic, The Columbia Missourian reported. Between social distancing and the greater vulnerability of the elderly to contracting the virus, many must cope with seeing each other less and less. As stay-at-home and shelterin-place orders are being relaxed around the country, the elderly still must take extra precautions. Many people will need to continue to keep their distance from their elderly loved ones, even as the infections decline. Kitzi and 70-year-old Kinney are no exception. They had to make hard decisions to keep each other healthy. Kinney usually spends winters in a retirement community in Arizona and returns in summer to live with her daughter in Columbia. With the uncertainty surrounding the virus, Kitzi and her mother grappled with whether it was smart for her to return. “We went back and forth a hundred different ways about
what was the best decision to make,� Kitzi said. Kitzi and her mother had to weigh the benefits of being close to each other for emotional support and, in case one of them fell ill, physical support against the risks of potential exposure on the journey to Missouri. Kinney has health issues that could make her recovery harder if she caught the virus. With her primary care physician in Columbia, the choice was complicated. “I really felt like it was going to be important for her to make the decision,� Kitzi said. “I was wanting to support her and try and be the bright spot in whatever hard decision she made.� The pair and Kinney’s physician decided Kinney should stay in Arizona. Many of her friends there have left for the summer, which Kitzi said will be hard on her mother. “She’s a very social person, so I know that will be a heartache for her,� Kitzi said. “But I think she’s settling in and finding some daily activities and some normalcy with being social in this new world.� Many retirement communities and nursing homes are requiring residents to stay in their own apartment. Friends and family are barred from visiting to decrease the possibility of exposure. Jaye Wright, whose partner, Laurie Florio, is at The Villa at

TAKING TIME TO PROPERLY BUDGET After months of study, discussion and hearing from people all over the state, the Legislature has approved the state’s operating budget for the upcoming fiscal year. As a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, putting together a blueprint for Fiscal Year 2021 has been one of the most difficult experiences of my life. As chairman of the Missouri Senate Appropriations Committee, I can tell you dozens of people have spent hundreds of hours working to find the best way to construct a budget that funds state government and provides important services to the citizens of our state. First and foremost, the FY 2021 budget fully funds the foundation formula for Missouri’s K12 schools and holds funding for public higher education institutions the same as current levels. The budget passed by the Legislature also includes federal CARES Act funding. Within the budget, we provide the governor authority to provide up to $30 million in grants for small businesses and $20 million for Missouri meat processing plants from federal COVID-19 relief funds. The budget also continues to provide increased funding for nursing home rates as these organizations continue to deal with the COVID-19 virus. In an attempt to reduce spending, next year’s budget eliminates numerous vacant positions in several state departments. In addition, below are several other areas that received funding through the FY 2021 state
budget: • A full year of funding for county prisoner per diem rates; • Funding to eliminate the current fiscal year waiting list for the developmentally disabled; • $12 million in federal funding for the expansion of broadband Internet services; • $26 million in funding for opioid treatment services; • $33 million for Area Agencies on Aging; • Up to $35 million in federal funding for rural hospitals; and • $12 million in funding for water resources and infrastructure. The legislature has also given the governor flexibility to use federal funds for cash flow purposes to make sure our state has the ability to pay tax refunds and our bills, despite the delayed tax date in July. Fiscal Year 2021 will start on July 1. Between now and then, lawmakers may have to come back to Jefferson City to address any new issues, whether revenues get worse or we receive additional federal help. Rest assured, I will be working extremely hard to keep Missouri ready for anything that comes our way. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns. My capitol office number is 573-751-1415, my email address is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.

Wright said what was a difficult choice then has become more so since the isolation orders, as she has not been able to see Laurie or check in with her caregivers in person. “I would start painting pictures about how bad (Laurie was doing), but then I could visit her and see, ‘No, she’s doing OK,’� Wright said. “Now, I am back to where I don’t know what’s happening, and I can’t see her. I feel like I can’t really connect, I can’t show her (that I care).� Serena agreed the restrictions made her worry about Laurie more than usual. “On the news, I hear about the nursing homes in New York or New Jersey where (several residents) have gotten sick,� Serena said. “I know my house isn’t handicap accessible, and I can’t physically take care of her needs, but it is still really hard to think about, if there is a case of COVID-19 in her nursing home, I can’t take her out.�

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Linda MowBray admits she’s uneasy as communities ease restrictions meant to stop the coronavirus spread, luring people back to restaurants, businesses and normal life. She gets it that the economy needs to be up and running again. But MowBray worries that as that happens nursing home workers could contract the virus and bring it into a facility without knowing. “I’m scared to death of what’s going to happen,� MowBray, president of the Kansas Health Care Association, a nursing home advocacy group, told The Kansas City Star. “The virus is still out there, and people will still get sick. And when you have workers carrying it into a frail population, more people are going to die.� She emphasizes that longterm care facilities still have a crucial need for the big three: Testing, personal protective equipment and more resources. To that end, Vice President Mike Pence may have offered MowBray and other advocates a small sign of hope this week. During a call with governors on Monday, Pence recommended that all residents and staff of nursing homes be tested for COVID-19 in the next two weeks. But just how that can happen is still unknown. Officials with Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services are “having in-
ternal discussions� with the governor’s office about Pence’s recommendation, said Kristi Zears, a spokeswoman for KDHE. Currently, facilities in the state monitor residents and staff for symptoms and test anyone who is symptomatic. If someone tests positive, KDHE works with the county health department to test everyone in that facility. The need for testing kits and lab processing will be great if Pence’s recommendation is followed. In Kansas alone, there are more than 300 nursing homes that are Medicaid and/or Medicare-certified. That accounts for 20,000 residents and 20,000 staff, Zears said. In Johnson County, the health department hopes the resources are there to expand testing, said Dr. Sanmi Areola, director of the Johnson County Department of Health and Environment. “As mentioned several times, testing needs to increase by several folds,� Areola said. “And we will continue to work to obtain these resources. We are working to establish relationships with local infection control experts to use as resources for these facilities.� In Missouri, nearly 80 longterm care facilities have reported two or more cases. Though the state’s Department of Health and Senior Services does not track nursing home COVID-19 deaths, residents have died at several facilities in Missouri — including in

Cass and Jackson counties. “We believe it’s critical that adequate testing be made widely available immediately now that we understand that individuals can have the virus but not show any symptoms,� said Nikki Strong, executive director of Missouri Health Care Association. “It’s time to rally around our long-term care workers, who are frontline heroes.� Beyond testing, long-term care facilities on both sides of the state line are experiencing staffing shortages and struggle to access enough protective equipment and other resources. Facilities have to deal with these issues, advocates say, before they can even attempt to get back to any sense of normalcy and allow visitors again. “The $100,000 question is how do we open it back up?� MowBray said. “At this point I really don’t know when it will be a safe and prudent thing to do. ... Letting people back in, it’s risky. And the staff are going to be out and about more, that’s risky.� In both Kansas and Missouri, state orders say there should be no visitation at long-
term care facilities during the first phase of reopening. Missouri Gov. Mike Parson’s order ends May 31. It isn’t known what restrictions will be included in the next phases. In Kansas City, health officials stress the need to be cautious with this vulnerable population. “We know families are yearning to visit their loved ones in nursing homes, to embrace them and look them in the eyes,� said Tracie McClendon-Cole, deputy director of the Kansas City Health Department. “As much as we want to visit freely, we have to remember this disease is most dangerous and deadly to them. We want families reunited, but will argue for strict and careful guidelines to protect their lives.� Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly’s order doesn’t allow nursing home visits until the third phase of reopening. The order states that visits to long-term care facilities — as well as correctional facilities — “may be gradually reinstated.� The earliest the third phase could begin is June 1.

Donald Clark Woodard Lifetime Trenton resident and retired farmer Donald Clark Woodard died at his home south of Trenton at 9:45 a.m. on Friday, May 15, 2020. He was 96. A graveside service with military honors will be held at 2 p.m. on Thursday, May 21, 2020 at the Resthaven Memorial Gardens, north of Trenton. Persons wishing to attend are asked to bring lawn chairs. Mr. Woodard was born in Trenton on Sept. 21, 1923 to Bill and Anna Rothenberger Woodard. He graduated from Trenton High School in 1941 and enlisted in the Army Air Corps in November of 1942. He spent six weeks in basic training and months being trained in cadet, gunnery and bombardier/navigator school. He was assigned as the bombardier in a B-24 Liberator during WWII. 2nd Lieutenant Woodard and a crew of eight others took off from Scotland on July 7, 1944. They were told only that their target was a jet assembly plant in Bernberg, Germany. Because they were going so deep into Germany, the gas tanks were topped off to overflowing and they weren’t allowed to start their engines until just before take off. These planes were filled to capacity with fuel and ammunition and the fear was that they would run out of fuel before they could return. They were also told that there was a less than 50 percent chance that they would survive. At 23,000 feet, they dropped their payload and their mission was considered a success because they did hit their target. Woodard pressed the button once the target was spotted and the lead planes began to drop their bombs. The plane was hit with heavy flak and was going down. The top gunner was wounded and unconscious and they pushed him out of the plane and pulled his rip cord for him, in hopes he would have a chance for survival. The eight other men bailed from the plane but as Woodard prepared to do so, he discovered that his parachute was shot up and lying in a heap. He cradled it in his arms and jumped, thinking he was jumping to his death. As he drifted down a German fighter plane tried to shoot him out of the sky so an American P-38 circled him and protected him until he landed. He was a prisoner of war for 10 months at Stalag Luft I on the Baltic Sea about 150 miles north of Berlin, during which time he was interrogated twice. He gave only his name, rank and serial number as instructed. He spent his first two weeks in solitary confinement in a five-foot by seven-foot cell. The second time he was interrogated his captors knew everything about him, including his mother’s maiden name. The rest of the time he spent as a POW was in a 14-foot by 22foot room with 21 other soldiers. There were bunkbeds stacked in threes and one small stove used for heat and cook-
No one was transported for injuries following an accident May 16 at the intersection of Ninth and Haliburton streets. According to Trenton Police Office Jenn Girdner’s accident report, the mishap occurred when a car driven by Michael J. Hoskins of Kirksville was westbound on East Ninth Street, making a left-hand turn onto Haliburton Street. Hoskins pulled his vehicle into an eastbound pickup truck, driven by Brenda S. Figg of
Galt, causing a collision. There was extensive damage to Hoskins’ truck and moderate damage to the vehicle driven by Ms. Figg. An occupant in her vehicle, Stephen W. Wil son of Trenton, indicated he would seek medical treatmen on his own. Hoskins was ticketed fo failing to maintain financial re sponsibility for a vehicle, care less and imprudent driving and driving with a suspended li cense.

He left France on June 9, 1945 on a Liberty Ship named Joseph Hooker. He arrived back in his hometown of Trenton on June 23, 1945. On July 22, 1945 he married Letha Anna Mack.

The Woodards returned to Trenton and farmed for the rest of their lives. He and Letha enjoyed almost 72 years together before her passing in February 2017. Woodard was the recipient of the Trenton Area Chamber of Commerce Above and Beyond award in Agriculture in 1991. He also received the Trenton Area Chamber of Commerce Pillars of the Community Award in 2015 and he and Letha were honored as distinguished NCMC alumni in 2007. He served as Chairman of the Board for Farmers Mutual Insurance and member, elder and trustee of the Liberty Chapel Christian Church. He was also a member of the board of directors for Sunnyview Nursing Home, board of education of Pleasant View R-6 School and member of the Veterans Assistance League in Cameron. He was preceded in death by his wife Letha, his parents, Bill and Anna Woodard and one brother, Billy. Survivors include two sons, Mack and his wife, Deb and Eric and his wife, Rochelle of Trenton; five grandchildren Carl (Leslie) Woodard and Christina (Jordan) Ferguson of Trenton, Molly (Jake) Strasser of Big Lake MN, Melissa (Rick Collins) Woodard of Saint Anne, IL and Chelsea (Curtis) Pflug of Wheaton IL; and four great-granddaughters, Claire and Layla Woodard and Harper and Jovie Ferguson.

today I think was important enough that legislators made the decision that they were going to go ahead and come to the building to do work,� Republican House Speaker Elijah Haahr said. “We understand the risks involved.� Few lawmakers wore masks in the final days of session, and legislators frequently sat close to one another to vote. Lawmakers also faced pressure to act on crime legislation following a bloody 2019 and a violent start to 2020. The deaths of two men on Tuesday night were Kansas City's 63rd and 64th homicides this year. St. Louis police reported 53 homicides as of Friday. A bill headed to Parson's desk would create the crime of vehicle hijacking, expand the number of crimes that are considered dangerous felonies, ban probation for some crimes, and broaden what's considered a criminal street gang, along with increased penalties for taking part in gang activities. “This is going to help get the most violent habitual offenders off of the streets,� Republican Rep. Nick Schroer said. The bill sparked outrage from House lawmakers who said it could reverse a drop in the state's prison population following a bipartisan push for criminal justice reform in recent years. “It doesn't make us safer,"

Republican Rep. Shamed Dogan said of longer prison sentences. “It sounds good in campaign ads, but it does not actually increase public safety. This has been shown time and time and time and time again by research." Longstanding efforts to make Missouri the last state to adopt a prescription drug database to track addictive medications failed. Republican skeptics in the Senate expressed no interest in compromising on the Housebacked bill Friday after a feud between the two GOP-led chambers. At issue was a House provision that could thwart efforts to build a wind-energy power line that was slipped onto another Senate bill without senators noticing. Senators on Thursday hurriedly revoked a bill they had just passed, a highly unusual move, when they caught the amendment. Few bills made it across the finish line during lawmaker's roughly five month session, about 50 compared to more than 90 last year. The Republican-led Legislature this week did succeed in sending a new redistricting plan to the ballot that will ask voters to undo key parts of another redistricting measure they passed less than two years ago. Supporters wanted to accomplish the move this year because new state House and Senate districts will be drawn in 2021.

Dear Annie: You asked your readers to send in positive stories in the midst of this pandemic. While it's difficult to turn off the news and ignore the finger-pointing and negativity that comes with a crisis, I've made it a conscious goal to stay positive and hopeful. Here are three things that I am doing: 1. Exercising. I put on my workout togs first thing in the morning so there are no excuses. Upbeat music and a simple workout are my start to EVERY day. On nice days, I'll take a long walk as well, to appreciate nature and anticipate spring. 2. Keeping in touch with family, friends and neighbors by having at least one phone conversation every day. If my phone doesn't ring by midafternoon, I call someone, just to chat, share a joke or make an offer to pick up groceries, medications or pet food. 3. Revisiting old hobbies and interests. I'm finishing a scarf I started a year ago. I'm planning a new garden this

spring. And I've rediscovered being a pen-pal. It may be oldfashioned, but it's so satisfying to open my email or post office box and receive news from a new friend in another country who is also adjusting to our changed world. Thank you so much for inviting your readers to share their ideas and comments. I look forward to seeing what other readers have to say. -Grateful in Canada Dear Grateful: Thank you for sharing your positive suggestions. They are all wonderful! In times like these, a true hero faces hardship and finds meaning and purpose each day, as you are doing. Courage to face this pandemic is not about not being afraid of it; it is about acknowledging your fear and still living each day with lots of joy. Dear Annie: With homeschooling my kids now and trying to keep up our love for nature while not leaving our neighborhood, I stumbled upon this idea you may like to share with your readers. The

National Wildlife Federation has a program where you can earn your garden or backyard a designation as a Certified Wildlife Habitat. My kids and I had a blast moving through the National Wildlife Federation's checklist to get our yard in shape to become certified. We learned a lot and the kids were happy to Google different terms we didn't know, and to research how to build a few contraptions. (I did not know that butterflies needed a "puddler"; I didn't even know what that was! But we had fun building a few.) When we had all the tasks completed, we simply applied online and made a donation. We all learned a lot and had a sense of pride in our community and in creating a space for our furry and crawly friends. - Amanda B. Dear Amanda B.: I love this idea! Readers can learn more at www.nwf.org/Gardenfor-Wildlife/Certify "Ask Me Anything: A Year of Advice From Dear Annie" is out now!

Restaurants reopen
Some U.S. chain restaurants are reopening as a few states lift restrictions. But the openings have only slowed the nosedive that began when the coronavirus pandemic forced lockdowns across the country. Total restaurant transactions were down 26% from a year ago in the week ending May 3, compared to a 32% decline the previous week, according to NPD Group, a market research company. The low point came the week ending April 12, when transactions plunged 43%. NPD attributed the improved numbers to both government relief payments and the lifting of dine-in restrictions in states
including Georgia, Florida and Texas. The group estimates that restrictions have been lifted for nearly 192,000 restaurant units — about 29% of the total — since May 1. NPD noted that many restaurants are not reopening at full capacity because of social distancing rules. NPD estimated that transactions would have fallen just 20% the week ending May 3 if reopened restaurants were operating at 100% capacity. Some restaurants, moreover, have chosen to stay closed or offer take-out only because it’s too costly to open dining rooms for a limited number of customers, said David Portalatin, an NPD food industry adviser.
