We are still wearing masks!

Can you believe it’s been 14 months that we’ve been wearing masks? I know we are getting mask weary and are ready for them to come off. Gov. Lamont has given businesses the option of allowing no masks or continuing to have mask wearing indoors.

For the safety of the staff and the safety of all our customers that masks will still be required. You’ll need to continue to wear your mask over your nose and mouth for a bit longer while coming to the center.  The center is still a place that is for the most vulnerable population to Covid 19.

We will discontinue wearing masks in the center beginning July 1 as long as we continue to see the decline in Covid cases in our community.

I ask that you be kind and respect the decision to keep everyone that participates here safe. The light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter and we all look forward to the day when we can get back to whatever our “normal” will be.
