Each and everyone of us must work together to reduce the spread of COVID-19 in our community, keeping our loved ones and vulnerable community members safe. The residents of the Creston Valley are resilient, adaptive and unceasingly kind. We must continue to implement our layers of protection with no exceptions, stay connected to those outside our core groups virtually, and reduce the spread of COVID-19 in Creston.
