Things have been quiet here at the Birth Circle these last few months as we all try to adjust to doing things in new ways. We are launching a series of virtual meetings to keep connecting and supporting each other, they may look a little different each month depending on the topic and the virtual resources each presenter has available, but we will plan to continue with the evening of the last Wednesday of the month, we will post a link to participate on the Birth Circle page and in the Birth Circle Group on Facebook. As always, all virtual events will be free and open to everyone.

As of this writing, the annual yard sale will go on with COVID-19 safety measures in place. The sale will take place inside the old Shoe Sensation storefront at the mall. There is an exterior door next to Tractor Supply that will be open. There will be a limited number of people permitted inside at a time and masks will be required, we have a few extra if you do not have one. The sale will be donation-based (PayPal online or cash/check in a jar). To eliminate lines at checkout and to help our community who have been hit hard by the pandemic.
