Vaughan shares the concerns of the visitor community on the Island that the public not cancel plans to visit the Island. Some news reports over the past several days may have created the perception that visitor services, activities, recreation, dining, and attractions were affected, which is not the case, she says.

All visitor-related facilities, including restaurants, accommodations, retail shops, attractions and activities are expected to be open.
