Indiana enters Stage 3 of reopening plan

Because of the progress Indiana has made in slowing the spread of COVID-19, Gov. Holcomb announced that, as of Friday, May 22, Indiana will be operating under Stage 3 of the Back on Track plan to reopen Indiana’s economy.

Some of the highlights of Stage 3 include the following:
• Social gatherings of up to 100 people are permitted.
• Retail stores and malls may open to 75% capacity.
• Restaurant in-person dining will remain at 50% capacity.
• Gyms and fitness studios may open with restrictions.
• Community pools and campgrounds may open.
• Youth and adult recreational sports practices may begin (this does not include contact sports).
• Community sports facilities like basketball and tennis courts, soccer fields, and baseball diamonds may open.
• Raceways may hold competitions with no spectators.
• State park inns will reopen.
• Youth summer day camps may begin June 1.
Cass, Lake and Marion counties, however, will remain in Stage 2 of the state plan until June 1 due to the prevalence of COVID-19 in those areas.

Hoosiers age 65 and older, and those with known high-risk medical conditions, should continue to limit exposure at work and in their communities.
