It could be even happier if more people were vaccinated against Covid-19. If you’d like to make that so click here and find the best location for you. Remember the Covid-19 vaccine is free!

On that note, I’ll wrap up by saying you will find lots of stuff happening in our community when you scroll past my signature, including next week’s meeting on last-mile warehouses.  However, even if you don’t care to scroll further, stay safe and enjoy the rest of your Thursday.
