The next event takes place Sunday, May 3 from noon to 2:00 PM at Dearborn Savings Bank in Lawrenceburg. Masks will be provided to Dearborn County residents free of charge. However, a free will donation of $1 is suggested.
Face masks will also be available to Dearborn County residents on Thursday, May 7 from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at the Dearborn Adult Center on Tate Street; Aurora Lion’s Club Parking Lot; and Dillsboro Elementary. A third distribution will take place Saturday, May 9 from 1:00 to 3:00 PM at the following locations: Bright Christian Church; Moores Hill Church of Christ; and Dearborn Savings Bank in Lawrenceburg.
The masks being provided are the paper surgical masks, which can be worn alone or underneath a cloth mask for extra protection.
