We’re all trying our best to practice social distancing during this current outbreak of COVID-19, and while that’s great for helping to limit the spread, it’s not so great for local businesses, especially retailers and restaurants.
With that said, many of our local business owners are doing their best to provide services and products effectively and efficiently during this seemingly never ending pandemic, while keeping their employees and community safe.
