Due to being short staffed due to COVID-19, Copper Shores Meals on Wheels is temporary closed for the remainder of this week, ending Friday, December 8, 2023. Homebound community members who receive meals will receive their normal hot meal today and additional meals to get them through the end of the week.
"This decision was made out of an abundance of caution after nearly half of our staff either tested positive for COVID-19 or is exhibiting similar symptoms to those that have tested positive," Program Director Kathleen Harter said. "We know how important the daily visit from our caring staff is, but we know it's even more important to make sure everyone stays healthy."
Meals on Wheels holiday cookie sale and Wednesday evening's farmer meeting are still on as scheduled.
It is hoped that normal operations will begin once again on Monday, December 11, 2023. Call 1 (906) 483-1155 or email
mealsonwheels@coppershores.org with any questions.
