Please wear masks, especially if you will be in a large group and do not know the people you are around. Sanitize and wash hands on a regular basis. With graduations, mini pow-wows and other celebrations it is important to be cautious. You can pick up home COVID test kits at Emergency Management or at the Fire Department.
