Stephani King talks with Val Reichling about an item at Edelweiss Gifts and More May 13 on the Square in Monroe. Edelweiss Gifts is one of many stores that reopened to the public with social distancing guidelines after Gov. Tony Evers released a statement May 11 saying businesses could reopen and would allow up to five people in stores at a time. The store plans to return to their regular hours from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesdays, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday through Saturdays and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays. - photo by Brenda Steurer

Retail businesses are now allowed to be open to the public with distancing limitations. 

Only five customers are allowed in the store at a time and they must follow social distancing practices while in the store. Wearing a mask is also recommended.
