Mask Up Sandpoint

A lot has changed in the past few weeks, and those changes will likely continue. We’re calling on our community to “Mask Up”. Wearing a mask will help protect essential workers from getting sick, as well as help prevent the spread of COVID-19 by someone who doesn’t know they are infected.

How to help:

• We ask anyone with sewing machines to help produce masks.
• Drop off finished masks or extra supplies (cotton fabric, elastic, string, rubber bands, cord, etc.).
• All essential businesses should recommend employees wear masks who work with the public.
• All citizens should wear a mask when leaving the house to go to a public place where they may come into contact with others.
• We would like businesses to provide masks at the entrance of their businesses for those not wearing a mask.
• Wash your hands frequently, especially before or after touching your mask.
• Wash your mask daily with laundry soap and hot water.
• If you have a mask, please use the one you have, so everybody can get a mask who doesn’t yet have one.
