Essential Workers Day of Appreciation

Essential Workers Day of Appreciation

March 17,  2022

Essential workers risk their health and safety daily in order to keep us safe;

While many were asked to stay at home and practice social distancing, others continued to work and provide essential services to the community, it’s important that we honour and pay tribute to these incredibly brave and dedicated essential workers for keeping our community functioning during these unprecedented times;

Essential workers are heroes and are providing exceptional service to our citizens during the Covid-19 pandemic. They often make significant personal sacrifices to serve us;

We owe a profound debt of gratitude to every single essential worker who continues to ensure our community keeps moving and residents have the food and supplies they need every day;

In order to reflect on the contribution of essential workers, and to give residents the opportunity to recognize and discuss the importance of essential workers, the Town of Shelburne has proclaimed March 17^th, 2022 as Essential Workers Day of Appreciation.
