[ARCHIVED] March 27th COVID-19 Update

March 27th COVID-19 Update

The City of Windsor Heights would like to remind our residents, our business partners, and our visitors to exercise preventative measures to stay healthy! Washing your hands often, practicing social distancing as recommended, and staying home when possible have all been identified as ways to help #flattenthecurve. 

If you have questions about the COVID-19 virus you can visit the Polk County Health Department website at https://www.polkcountyiowa.gov/health. If you need medical advice, contact your primary care provider or call 2-1-1. You can also visit the Polk County Health Department on YouTube for some great videos related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

As we enter the second weekend of the pandemic restrictions, we encourage to you to continue to support our local businesses by ordering take out or delivery or buying products online. Additionally, getting outside for a walk can help alleviate some stress. 

While the City of Windsor Heights playground equipment in Colby Park and the Dog Park remain closed, you can still get out and walk around your neighborhood or walk on the trails. Be sure to waive at your neighbors and check on them from a distance. 

Lauren Campbell, a Windsor Heights resident, also started #heartsintheheights to get hearts placed in windows, on doors, made in chalk on your driveway, or any means you can think of to show support for your neighbors and our community. You can learn more about this wonderful gesture at https://www.facebook.com/groups/heartsintheheights.

Be safe, stay healthy and try to enjoy the weekend! Thank you for continuing to follow the City of Windsor Heights.
