💉 🚗 We hosted our annual drive-thru flu shot clinic last Saturday, and nearly 200 people received their free flu vaccine without leaving their vehicle!

Thank you to the Blue Ridge Community College nursing students who volunteered to administer the flu shots, and we appreciate the Churchville Boy Scouts who helped direct traffic!

If you haven't received a flu shot yet, now is a great time. It takes two weeks for the vaccine to provide full coverage, so don't wait too long before the holiday season.
