ST. PAUL, Minn. — The Greater Minnesota Regional Parks and Trails Commission launched a “Mask Out” campaign to encourage outdoor activity and masking. Renee Mattson, executive director, said there’s no better way to socially distance, get fresh air and some much-needed exercise than to visit a nearby park or trail, even when it’s cold out. Just put on your favorite winter facemasks – along with parkas, boots, choppers, and long underwear – and ‘mask out.'”
