Nurse's Office
Clothing request
If anyone has new or gently used pants or underwear, the nurse's office could use a boost in our supply. Please let me know if you have anything to donate! (Elastic waist pants are preferred).
Vaccinations
With flu season upon us, I would strongly encourage you to consider getting the new Covid booster as well as this season's influenza vaccine. Most pharmacies and physician's offices have appointments available.
