In Bellmawr, a gym defied the Governor’s executive orders this morning and planned to reopen, as police blocked the entrance and supporters lined up outside, according to NJ101.5.

The gym co-owners posted the following on Facebook:

“People lined up outside the Atilis Gym in the Browning Square shopping plaza before dawn Monday, holding pro-Trump signs and American flags in support of the decision to open, according to tweets by Fox 29’s Steve Keeley.”
