A Message from Chief Whitesell.
Dear Winhall Community Members.
In the period of one month, our day to day lives have been altered dramatically by the onset of the COVID-19 virus. This situation has caused great concern and fear in our communities. During these challenging times, we must try to remain calm and prepare for an unknown duration of time of disruption in our lives. This situation is unlike anything we have seen before, but we will get through it.
If each of us do our part and follow the guidelines being provided by our state and federal government, we stand a much better chance of minimizing the impact of this disease. We owe it to ourselves and each other to work together as we face these difficult challenges. Our local, state and federal governments are working hard to turn the corner on this issue. We must support them as best as we can. There are tough times ahead, but we may be able to minimize the impact of them if we do our part individually. Please take the recommended precautions seriously. Not only your health but others health depends on it.
If you have family members who are elderly or have compromised health conditions, you must help them through this period. They will be scared and maybe unsure of what the future will bring. Reassurance to them would help immeasurably.
If we know of elderly or those who have compromised health conditions and do not have immediate family in the area, we must make sure they are also taken care of. If you suspect that someone may fit these criteria please let us know via Facebook messenger or by emailing [email protected] and so that we can make sure that they have what they need.
Local police & first responder services, as well as our highway department services, will not change.
If you have questions, concerns or suggestions, please call us. As always, I can be reached at 802-297-1013 or through dispatch at 802-297-2121. My email address is: [email protected]. We ask you to stay calm, be prepared, stay informed and be patient. We will get through this. Take care of your families and one another.
Stay Safe.
