Personal note for local residents:
During this time it is requested that all people in Scotland County and surrounding areas make wise decisions regarding social interactions and priorities about health. Everyone has a responsibility to take care of their health and to help ensure the health and safety of their community, from the oldest to the youngest as well as those who have a higher risk health-issues which could make them more susceptible to COVID-19, as this is a time when we all have to pull together for the betterment, safety, and wellbeing of our community, not to give into panic and fear.
Thank you.
