What COVID secure measures are you taking?

We take your safety extremely seriously, so have put in place a number of measures to protect you and those around you. You can see the full overview here.

Do I have to share equipment?

All the time social distancing is a legal requirement, you will not have to share equipment. In Reshape you will have your own treadmill, box and dumbbells. In Ride you will have your own bike, which has been socially distanced from all other bikes. In Rumble you will have your own bag, which again, is socially distanced from all other bags. All equipment is thoroughly disinfected between sessions.

Can I freeze my account while you're closed?

All memberships and packages will be automatically frozen should we be forced to close by the government. Your package expiry date will automatically be extended in line with the length of the closure, and no membership payments will be taken.

Can the expiry date on my gift card be extended?

Absolutely. You will be provided with an extension in line with the length of closure.

The Studio

Do you have lockers?

Absolutely, and a lot of them. No need to bring a lock, we operate on a code combination setup.

Where are you located?

We have a whole host of clubs across Central London. Check out the full address for each here.

Do you have water or should I bring my own?

All our studios are zero single-use plastic free and we provide reusable stainless bottles to borrow for your session. If you’d prefer to bring your own bottle, we also have water stations available.

Is there food and drinks available to buy?

We have post-session protein shakes available from our 1R Bar that can be pre-ordered on arrival or ordered there. We don’t have any food options but we can direct you to some great places to refuel close by.

What do I need to bring?

Your A-Game. Every time. Plus workout kit and suitable trainers for Reshape + Rumble.

What do you provide?

Shower towels, sweat towels, hair products, deodrant, moisturiser, cleanser, GHD hairdryers and straighteners, ironing boards and specialised kit for the sessions (boxing gloves + cleats). We even have an on-site Barber + Blow dry bar for cuts and shaves for the men and blow-drys, braids and styling for the ladies that you can book into. You'll leave looking better than you arrived.

Are there showers?

Yes, and they’re pretty damn slick. We’ve kitted them out with body wash, shampoo and conditioner and we also have cleanser and moisturiser to keep you looking sharp.

Do you have a free weights area?

We're not your traditional gym so you can only hit us up for classes.

Do you have disabled access?

All our clubs have either ground floor or lift accessed disabled changing rooms and showers. All studios apart from Angel can be accessed step-free, with Angel having one step access to the studio itself.

If you have any questions or concerns about accessing the studios or the classes themselves, contact the local team and they would be more than happy to talk you through what support we can provide.

The Sessions

What kind of sessions do you offer?

We’ve normally got 3 concepts for you to choose from. ReshapeRide and Rumble. Each session varies between 45 minutes and 1 hour and you'll fall in love with all of them for different reasons.

However, due to government restrictions things are a little different at the moment. Firstly, from 29th March we have Rebel Outdoors, and from 12th April we have Rebel In Your Ear. More details below.

Normal sessions will hopefully resume from 17th May.

What is Rebel Outdoors?

Rebel Outdoors will be available from 29th March and will offer outdoor sessions in Shoreditch Park and Cardinal Place, Victoria. They will be 45 minute Reshape style sessions involve running, HIIT and circuits. Available until 16th May.

Head to the schedule to book. You will need an Outdoor + Audio package, which can be purchased here.

What is Rebel In Your Ear?

Unfortunately, while normal gyms can open from 12th April, trainer led indoor group exercise isn't allowed until 17th May. Until then we'll be opening some of our studios for open sessions. Book a spot as normal, either for your own workout or to take advantage of our new audio workouts. These are full 45 minute sessions where the trainer will guide you through the workout, exactly as they would do if they were in the room. It's the almost full Rebel experience. Accessed through the 1Rebel app, expect big beats, epic lighting and next level motivation.

Available from 12th April in Broadgate, Angel, Bayswater and Victoria, and across Reshape, Ride and Rumble. You'll have an hour slot to complete your workout and you won't be sharing any equipment. Showers and changing rooms will be open as normal.

You will need an Outdoor + Audio package, which can be purchased here.

Tell me about Reshape

Reshape is a high intensity session where you'll alternate between the treadmill and a box with dumbbells. Designed to build strength, improve your overall fitness and aerobic capacity. Expect loud music and mind blowing lighting, all timed perfectly to your workout and designed to push you exactly when you need it most.

It's hard but scalable, so suitable for all abilities. It is high impact, but if you're worried about running and jumping give your trainer a heads up at the start of the session and they will give you some alternatives.

Expect to sweat A LOT, burn a s**t load of calories, and feel like an absolute legend when you're done.

Available at Broadgate, Bayswater, St Mary Axe, Angel, South Bank and Holborn. More details here.

Tell me about Ride

Ride is our take on spinning. Led by one of our legendary instructors at the front of the room, you'll be guided through a full body workout. Expect inclines, sprints, and arm work. Plus a dedicated weights section with dumbbells. Each class follows a banging playlist expertly put together by the trainer themselves, and spanning every genre you can imagine. Ride is low impact.

You'll be set up with your own stationary bike and will clip in using Ride shoes and cleats. We provide these free of charge in all sizes. If it's your first time you'll be shown at the start of the class how to set up the bike.

Available at Bayswater, St Mary Axe, South Bank and Victoria. More details here.

Tell me about Rumble

Prepare to pack a punch in Rumble, our high intensity full body boxing class. Choose from two class types, Strength + Power and Speed + Conditioning, and get ready for boxing combos, bodyweight exercises, drills and speedwork. It's a 45 minute battle between you and your boxing bag, all expertly timed to the music to give you a push exactly when you need it.

The class is high impact, but if you have an injury or need to take it easy, speak to the trainer prior to the session and they will be able to provide alternate exercises for you when relevant.

You'll need wraps and boxing gloves for the class. We provide gloves free of charge or you're welcome to bring your own. Wraps go under the gloves and are designed to protect your wrists and stop your hands rubbing on the gloves. You can bring your own or we sell two different options, which you can purchase prior to your session.

Available at Broadgate and Oxford Circus. More details here.

Do I need to bring my own kit?

Yes, please wear workout wear.

Reshape - we recommend wearing suitable running trainers.
Ride - we provide cleats or if you have your own we use Look Keo's.
Rumble - we provide gloves for free and wraps to buy for either £3 or £11. But if you have a lucky pair, feel free to bring your own.

I’ve not done HIIT before or I don't feel very fit, will I be ok?

Of course, we’ve got your back. Our workouts are scalable and accessible to everyone. Train at your own pace but always bring your a-game. Be sure to turn up 15 minutes before the session for your first timer induction.

Will the trainer shout at me?

Only if you're naughty ;) Just kidding, our trainers are mic'ed up but will never shout abuse at you. It's 100% about motivating and inspiring with positive messages and encouragement. They're here to make you work hard and push your limits, but only with good vibes.

Do you offer private sessions for groups?

Yes, bring the whole squad down. We can offer private venue hire too.

For any corporate studio hiring or general enquiries, drop Jonny a line on jonny@1rebel.com.

What happens if I'm late for a session?

When a session has started the doors are closed. So don't be late - you snooze, you lose.

Book Sessions

How do I book a session?

Head to BOOK NOW in the main menu, select your studio and spot, and you're in. Alternatively, download our App for easier, on the go booking.

How do I add myself to the waitlist?

You can add yourself to the waitlist on the individual session page by selecting ‘add to waitlist’. We allow up to five people to join a waitlist and you'll be notified by email if someone drops out and you get a spot. You can be added to the waitlist up to one hour before the class, so be ready. If you're added to a class from the waitlist with less than 12 hours to go, you will be subject to the normal late cancellation and no show fees if you decide not to attend.

Can I go next to my friend in a class?

For Reshape and Ride you can pick your spot when booking a session, so you can choose two next to each other. For Rumble, you pick your bag when you arrive so you can grab two near each other. If you're not able to book spots near each other, speak to our Front of House team when you arrive and they might be able to work some magic ;)

Can I transfer a booked session to a friend if I can’t attend?

If you've got a package then yes, give your local club a call and they will be able to sort for you. Membership sessions are however non-transferable.

Buy Sessions

How do I buy a session?

We offer single sessions, packages and memberships, all of which you can buy through the website or in our mobile app.

What’s the difference between a package and a membership?

A package is a single or group of sessions that you can use as and when before they expire. The expiry length kicks in from the day you book your first session. A package can be shared between two people.

A membership is a non-contract reoccurring payment that allows you to attend a certain number of classes a month. Your session allowance doesn't roll over and you can cancel anytime. A membership can only be used by the holder only and cannot be shared.

If you attend more than three times a month, a membership works out cheaper. There's also a whole host of perks that come with being a member, check them out here.

What happens if you have to close because of COVID?

If our studios are forced to close as a result of government measures, all packages and memberships will be automatically frozen - you don't need to do anything. All monthly payments will be paused and the expiry date on all packages will be extended. If you cancel your membership while it is frozen you will lose out on any remaining sessions from your allowance.

Can I freeze my membership?

Yes, if medical proof is provided. If all studios are closed as a result of a lockdown or governement guidance, all memberships will be automatically frozen.

Can I top up my membership with additional sessions?

Absolutely, if you've used up all your sessions for the month just email, call or speak to our team in club and they can add more sessions on for you.

Can I terminate my membership?

Yes, at any time with at least 1 day ahead of the renewal date. For example, if your next renewal date is 30th September, you need to cancel by 29th September in order to avoid being charged for the next cycle. Note that if you do terminate your membership, you will be subject to current membership rates upon your return.

How do I terminate my membership?

You are responsible for terminating your own billing cycle by logging into your online account, selecting ‘my packages’ and selecting "end contact". Please note the "no refunds" policy.

Can I cancel my membership and re-buy?

Yes, just head to your account to cancel. If you purchased your membership on a special promotion, you will not be able to re-purchase the same one if it is no longer available.

Can I cancel a session?

Yes, but why would you want to do that?

Here’s the deal if you do - we have a 12 hour cancellation policy.

If you cancel with less than 12 hours to go:
Package holders: You lose the session
Members: You will be charged £15

What happens if I don’t show up?

We will find you...

Package holders: You will lose the session.
Members: You will be charged with a £17 "no show" fee and re-credited your session.

When am I charged?

Package purchases are charged instantly. On memberships, your first payment is taken straight away and then subsequent payments are taken on that same day every month.

Can I get a refund?

No, refunds will not be given for any purchase made on the 1R site or app.

Business Opportunities

Do you offer corporate discount and events?

We do indeed. Check out here for all the details, and contact jonny@1rebel.com to discuss further and make a booking.

Are there franchise opportunities?

We do work with select partners internationally on a franchise basis. If you have an interesting proposition and would like to chat further, drop giles@1rebel.com a line.

Forum Aims to Educate Kansas City Investors About New Opportunities

The Alternative Investment Forum will be held in Kansas City on June 2, 2016, bringing high net-worth investors, institutional investors, wealth advisors, family offices and private equity firms face-to-face with alternative investment opportunities.

The highlight of the event will be a panel educating investors about alternative investments in the Kansas City area. Among others, the panel features Darcy Howe of the KC Rise Fund, Ron LeMay of OpenAir Equity Partners and Mike Peck of Flyover Capital. Check out the full list on the official website.

The Alternative Investment Forum couldn’t come at a better time. According to Startland News, researchers surveyed 80 Kansas City investors and found that most high-net-worth investors need improved communication with other investors. The Alternative Investment Forum conducted the survey along with KCSourceLink to gauge investors’ interests.

The survey identified a concern for not knowing what investment opportunities are available. Due diligence, or the process of investigating whether a deal will be successful or not, is another obstacle to area investors.

Despite many investors not knowing the breadth of opportunities available to them, the survey identified a solid interest in startups. Fifty-seven percent of those surveyed said they have already invested between $50,000 and $1 million in startups, while 62 percent said they were interested in startup investments. Sixty-eight percent said that they needed more information on early-stage investing. The Alternative Investment Forum on June 2 will help bridge the gap between investors and opportunities in the Kansas City area.

My God....My Scapegoat

How many times have you heard the following from Christians:

  • It wasn’t in God’s timing…or… In God’s time, not ours
  • It wasn’t God’s Will
  • I did not feel led by God
  • God did not give me the gifts/abilities to do this or that.
  • I needed a solar powered calculator that day and God did not provide me any sunshine!

As Christians it is very apparent that we come preloaded with the very versatile “Excuse Application” (and we’re not afraid to use it!) And to make things worse, we often use God as the scapegoat for our inadequacies and our failures. It seems that by evoking the name of God, we try to absolve ourselves of all culpability.

If we are using God as a scapegoat for not being obedient…shame on us!

Consider for a moment if the apostle Paul had used any of the above excuses for not being obedient to the Lord Jesus Christ? If he had, he would have probably remained blind in Damascus praying for Braille to be invented while passing the time by playing with his little "saul of tarsus"; that would have been a sticky - colossal failure!

Have you ever used God as an excuse for not acting on/doing something?

Are there any other excuses you would add to the list?

Don't let this be You!

Five Steps 3PLs Can Take To Capitalize on New Omnichannel Opportunities

If you’ve heard it once, you’ve probably heard it a number of times by now.

The demand to provide a superior customer experience at every consumer touchpoint will impact every player in the supply chain industry. And as you might already know, brick and mortar retailers are expected to be more affected by this growing expectation.

Empowered by the rise of ecommerce and web-enabled smartphones, customers now expect instantaneous access to a near-limitless selection of products. They also want to be able to take advantage of customized pick-up and delivery options tailored to their own personal schedules. As a result, everyone from Walmart down to your local grocer must now offer a full range of omnichannel fulfillment, pick-up, and delivery services.

While providing a level of painless and satisfying service will be a huge challenge for many of these retailers, it will present a massive opportunity for the 3PL warehousing industry. These omnichannel purchases will have to be fulfilled by someone. Why not make your warehouse the premier choice?

In today’s ever-growing marketplace of selling channels, 3PLs have a massive opportunity to prepare their warehouse with the tools, expertise, and partnership to ensure they have the critical necessities required by retailers. Some 3PLs have already discovered ways to be a partner of choice and help with the surging needs of omnichannel fulfillment. While many aren’t really sure where to start to take advantage of this extraordinary growth opportunity.

To help navigate this demand, we thought it pertinent to outline five steps 3PLs can take in order to capitalize on omnichannel fulfillment and continually delight retail clients and their customers – while still delivering the increased profits you desire.

1- Ensure your warehouse has total visibility into every single aspect of your fulfillment chain

Omnichannel fulfillment requires 3PLs to interact with a wide range of remote entities – usually on a real-time basis. With consumers now demanding instant information regarding product availability, selection choices, and pick-up and delivery options, it is critical that you know every SKU’s location and disposition at any moment without exception.

This will require a powerful and reliable “command and control” technology - such as a warehouse management software (WMS). This will provide warehouses with the 24/7, real-time visibility, intelligent productivity workflows, and reporting needed - not only into your own warehouse – but into your manufacturers’ factories, your retail customers’ stores, their eCommerce website databases, and even your delivery partners’ vehicles.

With all the moving parts involved in serving today’s demanding, highly mobile, and often fickle consumer, 3PLs simply must have total visibility into their inventory at all times in order to deliver the level of satisfaction consumers now require.

2- Build seamless data connections with your customers and partners

Of course, all of the visibility in the world won’t help a 3PL if the data flowing throughout the supply chain is dated or inaccurate.

To ensure your information is always correct, warehouses should build, optimize, and frequently test connections with every connection involved with your fulfillment chain. This includes secure, reliable integrations with ecommerce shopping carts, your delivery partners’ Transportation Management Systems (TMS) – and most important of all, your EDI connections with retailers and manufacturers.

Now more than ever, warehouse data must be flawless, uninterrupted, and totally traceable. An unimpeachable record of data integrity will help your 3PL stand out from its competition. Those 3PLs who become known for total reliability will quickly become the go-to providers for smart retail clients everywhere.

3- Optimize your operational performance

While the omnichannel revolution could be quite lucrative, it will require 3PLs to adhere to new levels of speed, efficiency, and accuracy. For there is no margin for error in this brave new world.

3PLs should scrutinize their internal operations to ensure all orders are being fulfilled as quickly, accurately, and cost-effectively as possible. Higher volumes will not translate into higher profits if your processes are inefficient or if you’re not meeting your service level agreements. A 3PL may even wish to implement specialized procedures to support omnichannel clients. These could include dedicated teams, customized picking procedures, high-speed fulfillment lanes, and automated packing and shipping solutions.

Some warehouses may also need to reconfigure their WMS technology to better handle new order and receiving tasks, returns, and automation for recurring storage and shipping calculations. Still others may also opt to invest in new technologies, such as robotic fulfillment vehicles or enhanced material handling equipment (MHE).

While such investments might be beyond the budgets of smaller warehouses, everything you can do to optimize warehouse processes will ultimately improve both performance and final profits.

4- Understand your customers’ brand standards – and then implement without exception

A retailer’s brand image is their most valuable asset. It is the one thing that no competitor can replicate or steal and is a valuable connection between them and their customer. Warehouses must reward their retail clients every day for entrusting them to take care of it – as both of your reputations are now linked.

3PLs should meet with their customers regularly to understand the nuances of a retailer’s brand images as well as any plans for the future. This will ensure the ability to provide total “white glove” service to every product you fulfill.

In short, 3PLs should treat every single product as though it were their own since at the end of every fulfillment is a consumer waiting with higher standards than ever before. 3PLs who can meet these standards will quickly become superstars in the eyes of their retail customers and offer complete confidence in their ability to support a retailer’s brand and influence in a positive nature.

5- Forge new relationships with local, on-demand delivery providers

Today’s consumers expect retailers to be able to deliver their products to a custom-designated location – sometimes on the same day the order was placed. Fortunately, this demand has prompted an explosion of local, on-demand delivery services who are dedicated to serving the consumer’s every need.

We expect these services to quickly become a 3PL’s new best friend. Not only will these partners help by offering faster fulfillment, they will also offer the visibility now expected by today’s consumers. Last mile delivery partners stand ready to make your 3PL – and your retailer client - look amazing in the eyes of expectant consumers. They are an incredibly valuable service that should be integrated into both your service offerings and data systems.

3 Ways to Dig Into Spring Planting Season

As we near the estimated last spring frost for southwest MO, gardeners can now start laying the groundwork for a successful spring planting season.

By Katie Pollock Estes

Mar 2019

Spring gardening season in Springfield MO
Photo courtesy ShutterstockAs we near the last frost of the season, gardeners can start preparing for bountiful gardens.

Experienced and aspiring home gardeners, listen up. It’s almost time for you to start getting your hands dirty in the soil and working on your vegetable garden. According to The Old Farmer’s Almanac, the estimated date for the last spring frost in southwest Missouri is April 20. That means you should be able to safely plant seeds and starts in the ground without having to worry that a late-season frost will wipe them out prematurely. (Of course, this is an estimate. Mother Nature does what she wants.) Here are three ways to dig into the gardening life.

Test Your Soil

Ideally by now you’ve already tended to your soil. If not, don’t worry. The University of Missouri’s Greene County extension office is super helpful when it comes to soil prep. You can bring a sample in, and they’ll report back with your soil’s level of pH, phosphorous, organic matter and more with treatment recommendations for how to improve your soil for your growing goals. Adding fertilizer or other materials to prep your soil for growing could make all the difference in how productive your plants are. With local pros who can guide you along the way, digging into soil health is a no-brainer.

Start with Seeds

At Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co. (2278 Baker Creek Road, Mansfield, 417-924-8917), you can find a huge variety of vegetable and flower seeds, many of them rare heirloom varieties that can add some funky colors and interesting flavors to your garden. The Springfield company’s website is super-handy, with descriptions of the flavor and hardiness of the plants and helpful reviews from customers. But we recommend visiting the seed store in person, so you can flip through seed packets and peek at the farm. The spot hosts numerous events too. The first Monday of each month, from now through October, you can attend Baker Creek’s Heritage Days Festival.

Start with Plants

If you would rather grow from starter plants instead of seeds, there are lots of places that can get you started. Most local nurseries, like Schaffitzel’s Flowers & Greenhouses, Wheeler Gardens and also Wickman’s Garden Village have tons of flowers and plants—both annuals and perennials—that you can transplant into your home flower beds and pots. And they can help you determine what will work in your space if you let them know how much sun or shade the plants will get. This is the season for plant-filled events and flower sales too. At Garden Adventures in Nixa, the annual Azalea Festival celebrates that gorgeously bright flowering bush and offers many of them for sale. On April 27, you can attend the Master Gardener and Garden Society Plant Sale at Springfield Botanical Gardens at Nathanael Greene/Close Memorial Park (2400 S. Scenic Ave., Springfield), where you can find plenty of plants.

Sure Bets

If you’re new to vegetable gardening, you might be intimidated by the sheer number of plant varieties out there. Have no fear; we’re here to help. The veggies on this list tend to grow super-well in southwest Missouri's climate—so you can start your garden out on the right foot.

Growing Salad Greens

You can purchase seed blends that grow into numerous varieties of tender greens, all in one patch. You don’t have to start the seeds indoors; just sprinkle them over the soil in spring, and watch the salad mix sprout up early in the growing season. When they’re big enough to harvest (which doesn’t take long) just cut them down with scissors. They’ll grow back again several times! It’s a plant that’s as easy to grow as the grass and weeds on your lawn—but much tastier.

Growing Cherry Tomatoes in Garden

Tomatoes can be a tough crop if the conditions aren’t right. Not enough water in a dry season. Not enough sunlight. Tomato-stealing squirrels. But small varieties like cherry or grape tomatoes are also a pretty simple plant for a beginner. They tend to be a bit more productive and less sensitive. Bonus: You can even grow them in a container on your porch if you don’t have a big enough yard for a garden bed.

These flavorful herbs make great container plants, and they are so hardy! (We’ve planted oregano and mint from seeds that came back year after year with almost no work on our part.) Plus, they make your garden smell great and add freshness to your cooking. You can try lots of other herbs that fare well in Missouri too, even if they aren’t quite as hardy as oregano and mint—and you can even plant them all together in one super-large pot. Give basil, rosemary and dill a try, too.

LTE Band 48

3GPP 4G LTE Logo
3GPP 4G LTE Logo

4G LTE B48 (TD 3600)

Band 48 is an LTE operating frequency Band.  LTE is designed to work across a number of frequency bands – E-UTRA operating bands- currently ranging from 450 MHz up to 3.8GHz. The available bandwidths are also flexible starting with 1.4 MHz up to 20 MHz with Carrier Aggregation allowing use of wider multiples. LTE is developed to support both the time division duplex technology (TDD) as well as frequency division duplex (FDD).  Availability of specific bands varies per country and operator.

4G LTE Band 48 is defined as for use as follows:

Frequency Range: 3550 – 3700MHz
Width of Band: 150MHz
Channel Plan TDD (Time Division Duplex)

4G LTE in CBRS Band

In the USA, Bands 42 + Band 43 are part of CBRS, and is now defined as Band 48

Available 4G LTE Hardware for Band 48:

LTE Base Station for Band 48
CableFree LTE Base Station

4G LTE Base Station hardware

4G UE (User equipment) Terminals

(Please enquire for availability of specific devices supported for this band)

FDD and TDD LTE frequency bands

FDD spectrum requires pair bands, one of the uplink and one for the downlink, and TDD requires a single band as uplink and downlink are on the same frequency but time separated. As a result, there are different LTE band allocations for TDD and FDD. In some cases these bands may overlap, and it is therefore feasible, although unlikely that both TDD and FDD transmissions could be present on a particular LTE frequency band.

The greater likelihood is that a single UE or mobile will need to detect whether a TDD or FDD transmission should be made on a given band. UEs that roam may encounter both types on the same band. They will therefore need to detect what type of transmission is being made on that particular LTE band in its current location.

The different LTE frequency allocations or LTE frequency bands are allocated numbers. Currently the LTE bands between 1 & 22 are for paired spectrum, i.e. FDD, and LTE bands between 33 & 41 are for unpaired spectrum, i.e. TDD.

TDD LTE frequency band allocations

With the interest in TDD LTE, there are several unpaired frequency allocations that are being prepared for LTE TDD use. The TDD LTE bands are unpaired because the uplink and downlink share the same frequency, being time multiplexed.  TDD LTE is popular in ISP and closed networks where there is either predominantly Data-centric use (rather than voice), no legacy of 2G/3G, or pressure on limited spectrum available.

Universal takes first steps reviving Orlando theme park biz

National News

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — With masks on their faces and temperature checks at entrances, Harry Potter fans and roller coaster lovers streamed back into Universal Orlando Resort this week in one of the first major steps toward reviving Florida’s theme park industry, which was left temporarily moribund by closures to stop the spread of the new coronavirus.

Universal Orlando became the first of Orlando’s major theme park resorts to reopen by allowing annual pass-holders to return to its three parks Wednesday and Thursday. It will open to the general public Friday for the first time since mid-March.

“We missed the parks desperately!” said Donna Walters, who wore a pink scarf over her mouth and nose Wednesday after walking past a security checkpoint where a guard took her temperature with a thermometer gun.

If her temperature had been 100.4 degrees (38 degrees Celsius) or greater, she would have been barred from entry under new virus-related procedures adapted by Universal Orlando and the area’s other theme parks. The number of people allowed in was restricted to allow for social distancing, blue circles on the ground showed visitors where to stand to maintain 6-feet (2 meters) distance and a recording in English and Spanish played in a loop over loudspeakers at the entrance reminding park-goers to wear face masks and keep their distance.

Workers with spray bottles and cloths wiped down the hand rails of flat-escalators leading into the parks and Citywalk, the resort’s restaurant-entertainment complex that has been open for more than two weeks.

“We feel like all the precautions were up to snuff. We felt super safe to come here,” said Walters, who as a nurse is accustomed to wearing face masks. “Yeah, the masks. It’s Florida, so it’s hot. But it is what it is and it does protect other people.”

Crosstown rival SeaWorld Orlando is set to reopen next week, as are two other SeaWorld-owned parks in Tampa, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and Adventure Island.

Walt Disney World plans to welcome back visitors next month to its parks, and thousands of workers could start being recalled for work starting in mid-June, according to Unite Here Local 362.

Disney has not made any plans to reopen the water parks, and those workers can transfer temporarily into other departments. College students and international workers who staffed the country pavilions at Epcot’s World Showcase aren’t coming back anytime soon, so the positions formally staffed by international workers will be worked by U.S. employees, Eric Clinton, the local union’s president told members recently during an online meeting posted to Facebook.

Also disappearing for the time being will be parades, firework shows, “meet-and-greets” with performers dressed as Disney characters and the courtesy of using a guests’ phone to take their photo, Clinton said.

“Any scenario that could create large crowds … the company isn’t going to do it,” Clinton said.

All of Florida’s theme parks temporarily closed this spring, and Floridians and theme parks fans across the U.S. were forced to stay home because of state and local lockdown orders meant to stop the virus’s spread. The smaller Legoland Florida Resort in Winter Haven, Florida, opened Monday.

As of Thursday, Florida had more than 60,000 total coronavirus cases and more than 2,600 related deaths, but the number of cases has been trending upward. Over the past two weeks, the rolling average number of daily new cases has increased by 151.6 cases, an increase of almost 21%, according to a tally kept by Johns Hopkins University.

Orlando’s theme park industry, and synergistic businesses like hotels and restaurants, were devastated by the coronavirus-related closures. Tens of thousands of workers were furloughed and the theme park resorts have lost hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue. Orange County Comptroller Phil Diamond on Wednesday reported that the county’s tax collections on hotels and vacation rentals in April dropped 97% from the same month in 2019 to a level not seen since 1980.

But Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings said he was confident tax collections will improve as the theme parks reopen.

“I believe that we will recover,” Demings said at a news conference.

On Thursday, the U.S. Department of Labor reported that more than 206,000 Floridians filed jobless claims last week, up from 175,000 claims the prior week. More than 2 million Floridians have filed jobless claims since mid-March.

With the reopening of the parks, “thousands and thousands of employees have been put back to work,” said Tom Williams, CEO of Universal Parks & Resorts.

After arriving at Universal Orlando, Ashley Gonzalez tried to go on as many rides as possible, though wait times were longer than usual because of social distancing precautions. Some things felt odd, such as having only one person in a row on the rides and not being able to have personal contact with performers dressed up as characters such as Captain America.

“It’s refreshing to be out here because you spent so much time cooped up and in quarantine. It’s cool to be out in the open,” Gonzalez said. “You’re so used to high-five-ing people, and getting the character meet-and-greets. But you can’t do that now, obviously because of socially distancing.”
