The Cashiers Area Chamber encourages us all to just Grin & Bear It! and wear protective masks when out and about and social distancing is not possible.
Throughout the winter season and further into spring 2021, the organization is urging businesses to remind visitors, customers and employees to help prevent the spread of Covid by wearing a mask and following public health protocols.
The CDC guidelines remind us to wear a mask to protect ourselves from getting or spreading Covid, to wear masks with two or more layers, and to wear the mask over your nose and mouth and secure it under your chin.
The Chamber’s awareness campaign includes complimentary lapel pins, window clings and yard signs featuring North Carolina’s majestic black bear. Items are available free to Cashiers Area Chamber member businesses. Residents and visitors are invited to stop by the Chamber for pins. Quantities are limited.
The Jackson County Tourism Development Authority was the Chamber’s funding partner in this public service initiative. This is a great way to get all our area businesses involved reminding us all to be safe.
It’s not easy to find light hearted moments during this ongoing Covid crisis but the Cashiers Area Chamber, local businesses, and the Jackson County Tourism Development Authority have found a fun and creative way to make us smile while reminding us to be safe.
This public service message is guaranteed to make you smile! For more information call (828) 743-5191 or email them at [email protected].
