Duffy-Wescott Post 85
Given the COVID-19 threat we hope all are well, safe and secure. The Maine Centers for Disease Control (CDC) site link below, will give pertinent information and case identification for the entire state. Please do not rely on rumors and potentially inaccurate information that may be spread intentionally or unintentionally. The site is updated as changes occur.
With all the unknowns of the COVID-19 threat and to be in compliance with State requirements as identified on the Maine CDC site, , we are canceling ALL upcoming meeting and events that we cannot reasonably hold. The Post calendar (on this site) will be updated as we address those events.
Memorial Day will unfortunately be a minimized event this year (10 or less people is the state limit on gatherings) and will not be a general public event. Specifics are being worked out, though cemetery flags and the Flags on utility poles will be going up before Memorial Day.
