Be sure you are working at a safe distance from co-workers. The
CDC recommends wearing a cloth mask in crowded situations.
Enjoy the outdoors on your own property and don't invite over
the entire block.
We care about our community and it takes us all being as
responsible as we can be to protect one another.
It is absolutely vital that each individual follows these measures.
● Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
or use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol
● Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands
● Stay home if you are sick
● Cover coughs and sneezes using your elbow or shoulder rather
than your hands
● Clean and disinfect high-touch surfaces frequently
