Did you know that every year on Memorial Day there is also a nationwide moment of remembrance? During this time (3pm EST) Americans are encouraged to pause for a moment of silence! We encourage you today to pause and observe a moment of silence at 3pm to remember and honor the brave men and women who have died in service to our country.

Over the next few days please take a moment to pause, think about, and honor the members of our US Armed Forces who have given their lives in the process of forming, preserving and in service to this nation.

There is still time to sign up for our upcoming CPR class tomorrow (Wednesday 5/26) See the link below for more information and to sign up. https://events.eventzilla.net/e/heartsaver-cpraed-2138808469

Please note: Over the next few weeks, there may be low flying aircraft in your area of Ontario County for Gypsy Moth spraying using organic non-toxic Bacillus ...thuringiensis (Bt) spray material. Bt occurs naturally in soil and on plants. It is harmless to people, animals, and plants. Please refrain from calling 911, if you do see a low flying agricultural spraying aircraft in your area during the spraying operation. The operation includes three fixed wing aircraft (1 - yellow on top & dark blue, 1 - white w/ blue & yellow stripes, 1 - all yellow w/ blue stripes) and one helicopter (White Frame w/ Clear Bubble Cockpit).

WE NEED EVERYONE’S HELP. Now is not the time to let your guard down. We’ve done so well as a community keeping our numbers low and not overwhelming our healthca...re system. We know residents are tired of hearing about COVID-19 and want to get back to their normal lives; but this is a marathon, not a sprint. Even after a vaccine is released, masking and social distancing may be part of our new normal. YOU can help by wearing your face covering properly, practicing social distancing, staying out of crowds and away from parties, washing your hands frequently and staying home if you are sick.
