TOMORROW
Wednesday, August 5th
Noon - 4pm (Or until they are gone)
Hermantown City Hall Parking Lot
5105 Maple Grove Road
Hermantown, MN 55811
Rain or Shine
Masks are in boxes of 50, they are free, when they're gone they're gone.
You do not need to be a chamber member to receive these. No pre-registration required.
A few things to know:
- These are for businesses - for their employees and for customers so our businesses don't have to turn away a paying customer. Individuals who do not have a mask should be able to get them at a business they patronize.
- The supply is not intended to get your business through the COVID crisis, this is a small allotment to help as the statewide mask mandate is introduced. You'll need to work with your vendors to procure future supplies.
- They will be free, and because they were paid with tax-payer dollars, these masks are to be distributed to your employees / customers for free.
-
You do not need to be a member of a chamber of commerce to receive masks (But we welcome members any time of year, find out more https://www.hermantownchamber.com/connect/become-a-member/)
