Starting Jun 29, Guidance for gatherings of up to 50 people

Under Governor Beshear's new executive order, groups of up to fifty (50) people may begin gathering on June 29, 2020.

If you are an individual with conditions identified by the CDC as higher risk or are over 65 years old, public health experts recommend that you continue to avoid any in-person gatherings and remain Healthy At Home.

If you host or attend a gathering of up to fifty (50) people under circumstances not otherwise explicitly addressed by other Healthy at Work guidance, please follow this document.

Groups MUST:
  • Communicate to individuals to stay home if sick and not attend a group event;
  • Remain at least six(6) feet apart from people who are not a part of your household;
  • Wear a cloth face covering or mask over your nose and mouth if you will be closer than six (6) feet to someone outside your own household;
  • Wash or sanitize hands frequently;
  • Screen and exclude persons with fever, symptoms of COVID-19, and/or direct exposure to COVID-19; and
  • Not share food, drink, containers, plates, napkins, or utensils.

Groups Should:


  • Remain Healthy at Home to the greatest extent practicable and socialize via Internet, telephone, and other means that allow people to engage in appropriate social distancing;
  • Limit the gathering size to the smallest number of people practicable;
  • Hold the gathering outside whenever possible;
  • Discourage people from sharing items in any gathering, including tools, sporting equipment, vehicles, cooking/grilling ware, and other high-touch objects;
  • Avoid touching eyes, nose, or mouth; and
  • Post signs (physical and/or electronic) whenever practicable that discourage handshakes, "high-fives," and other direct person-to-person contact during the gathering as a way of decreasing the social pressure to engage in these common behaviors.
