ALEXANDRIA FUN DAYS
The 2020 Alexandria Fun Days celebration has been cancelled. Per the governor’s carried-over COVID-19 order on JUN 24 the Licking County Health Department confirmed the cancellation. We plan on holding AFD in 2021. Please see the governor’s order. Always optimistic we continued planning and hoping to hold our annual street fair, until it became obvious that there was no way to do it safely under the Stay Safe Ohio guidelines. We will now begin hoping and planning, probably against the odds, for a fall event, or hopefully the Santa Brunch. We won’t give up and we will be able to get together again, we just have to stay healthy in the meanwhile. Thanks, so much to the Fundays committee for all their hard work and continuing to plan for the future! MOSQUITO SPRAYING
Once again mosquitoes are upon us and they are NOT social distancing. We have again contracted with the Licking County Health department to fog for mosquitoes. They will fog every Wednesday for the duration of the season. The fog is ineffective if it’s raining, so if they can’t fog on Wednesday evening because of rain, they will try again on Thursday. The fog is odorless and not harmful to humans, but you may want to close windows and step inside when you hear the fog truck coming. Click here for more information. |
