We have received word from the Marion County Health Department that they have received 100 doses of the vaccine this morning. Beginning tomorrow morning, Wednesday, Jan. 6th, at 9:00am, we will have a POD at the Whitwell City Park. We are asking that you not come to the park until 7:00am to lineup. We have to make sure that we are able to get the health department staff into the site, and this will also give the police officers and EMA time to get set up to make sure it goes as smoothly as possible.

• 75-year-olds and up

  Group 1a1
