Americans Head to Beaches for Memorial Day Weekend

Americans took advantage of lighter coronavirus restrictions to celebrate Memorial Day weekend. They flocked to Ocean City's beach and boardwalk on Saturday as police were on the lookout for groups of 10 or more, which were not allowed.
“We have officers on horseback, foot patrol and vehicle patrol,” said Ashley Miller, spokesperson with Ocean City police. “If we do see groups of ten or more, we remind them that it is a violation of the governor's order. Depending on the situation, we would determine what kind of action would be taken.”
On the other hand, a party at Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri went viral on Sunday as partygoers were not wearing masks.
