  • The mask mandate issued by the Select Board on January 4th and renewed on February 1, 2022 has been allowed to expire.  Please continue to be thoughtful about how you and your family members can help prevent the spread of COVID 19. Being fully vaccinated and boostered helps stop the spread of this infection.  Wearing a mask does so as well.
