This holiday weekend is not the time for travel, unless absolutely necessary.
Let’s make it an ‘unwind and be kind’ weekend at home.
There are lots of things we can do to relax, have fun & connect with family, friends and our local community at a safe distance.

To get through this together, we must all stay apart. #PhysicalDistancing means you can still go to the grocery store as long as you’re not in mandatory isolation or quarantine, but limit it to once per week. Otherwise, #StayHomeSaveLives. ow.ly/5HBi50z5op8 #COVID19
