Local Businesses and Health Closures for COVID-19

date posted: 18 Mar 2020

Dear Community Members,

With the recent closures of all bars and restaurants in the area our local community businesses are being hard hit. Layoffs are common and permanent closures are a potential risk for some. These businesses have been generous supporters of the FCA and our community. In this time of need it seems only fitting for us to try to help them.

So here is what we would ask you to do. Please consider ordering takeout from these local business partners. In addition, please consider purchasing gift certificates that can be used at some future date when the “open” signs return. These small gestures will help reduce the financial impact of this temporary but important public health closure.

Thank you for your support.

Mike Dey, FCA President

This child was contagious at the time, though the family did not suspect pertussis at the time. The family was at the bus stops, in the Fauntleroy Church/YMCA parking lot, and in several areas of the church building, including the sanctuary during the Endolyne Children’s Choir performance.
