We are depending on you to take appropriate personal protections and practice safety recommendations.  Please bring your personal hand sanitizer of choice.  Wash your hands.  Wear your mask if you choose.  Glove-up if you’d like.  We recommend that anytime you are in line, please keep 6 feet apart.  That’s about half a car length!  If you are not feeling well, uncomfortable participating or attending this year, please stay home.  We understand and will see you next year!
