Town to distribute masks to Webster residents

Webster businesses and senior communities to receive masks separately

***

The Town of Webster will be handing out masks to Webster residents via drive-thru distribution on Saturday, May 9 and Wednesday, May 13.

Both distributions will take place at the Van Ingen Court Building parking lot (1002 Ridge Road, behind Webster Town Hall).

Each vehicle will receive a bag containing 12 disposable, non-medical face masks.

The Town of Webster says mask distribution for businesses and senior communities will be arranged separately. Specific dates and times have not yet been announced.

Since Governor Cuomo issued a mandate requiring people to wear masks or face coverings whenever they are out in public places where they are unable to maintain a social distance of at least six feet, masks have been harder to come by. The town’s mask distributions will help residents continue adhering to that mandate and protect themselves from being infected by COVID-19.

Distribution will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. both days.
