It's something for everybody and doesn't require everyone to be in one spot. So much of it can be virtual. They could set up an large outdoor screen to show the virtual tours - like a small version of a drive-in and watch the virtual tour etc. Just a thought. I don't think 100 million vaccinations in a 100 days is going to do that much even if they manage to find enough vaccine to actually vaccinate half that many by then. The vaccine program is a mess left to the new administration. It seems best to plan that things need to be set up as if the virus is still a problem, and then if it isn't it's possible to re-think.
