Today’s new guidance, coming from the Governor’s office, states that our communities should look closely at how we maintain social distancing in our daily lives. Social distancing is a term used by Public Health officials to stop or slow the spread of contagious diseases. The best way to maintain social distancing is to restrict gathering in groups and to maintain a six foot gap between you and another individual. That being said, St. Patrick’s Day celebrations are just a few days away. Please reconsider the need to gather in large groups for this holiday. While we understand the enjoyment of St. Patrick’s Day, we need to be mindful of the need to keep our community and yourselves as safe as possible.
