We would like to encourage everyone to come out. Don’t Wait, vaccinate to protect yourself and your families. A special thank you to Rev. Micrin Copeland and the Bethesda Church members for hosting this event.”

Prize drawings and giveaways for those who are vaccinated will be provided by the sponsors of the event.
