Gov. Janet Mills is allowing campgrounds to reopen this weekend , but some operators say they are not quite ready. “I didn’t feel like jumping right to it was the appropriate thing to do either on a health level and on an operational level.” Neil Lyman was tiling a bathroom when he learned of Mills’ decision to reopen campgrounds for the holiday weekend. He says logistics will keep him from reopening Winslow Park, which he manages in Freeport. Many campgrounds, like Lyman’s, plan to open June 1.
