When using pickup or delivery or running your essential errands, please do so efficiently.\u00a0If you are still working outside your home, follow social distancing rules as much as possible.\u00a0Continue to exercise and go outside, but allow at least 6 feet between you and those not sheltering with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many Dunwoody families, spring break begins this weekend. Please be extra careful next week. It is going to be tempting to let your children have playdates, walk in groups, or go to the store just to have something to do. None of these is a good idea.\u00a0The Dunwoody Trailway has multiple connections, and you can access it from Georgetown Park and Pernoshal Park, as well as Brook Run. Using these trail heads will allow you to spread out more and make social distancing easier.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It will certainly be a different spring break, but I am hearing a lot of creative suggestions from families on how to use this time.\u00a0I would love to hear your ideas so I can share them with others.\u00a0Email\u00a0<a>lynn.deutsch@dunwoodyga.gov<\/a>\u00a0with your social-distancing, family-friendly ideas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, in today\u2019s newsletter, you can find an activity book from our Parks and Recreation Department. You&#8217;ll also read about #DestinationDunwoody, an activity involving our restaurants. The Governor\u2019s order is in place until at least April 13<sup>th<\/sup>.\u00a0We will keep you updated if anything changes.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a>Here is a link to a handout<\/a>\u00a0about the statewide shelter-in-place order from the Governor&#8217;s Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DUNWOODY &#8212; Dunwoody Mayor Lynn Deutsch sent a special message to Dunwoody residents reminding them that even though Spring Break starts next week, they should avoid the temptation to break Gov.
