A crisis can draw a community together. In the case of COVID-19, I hope we can strengthen ties within our villages and region even while we remain physically isolated.

We are fortunate to live in such a beautiful and peaceful area where many people are resilient and self-sufficient. We have gone through long power outages and major winter storms and came out smiling. Many residents have pantries full of food and know how to prepare meals from scratch. In rural Albert County, we can self-isolate but still walk on a beach, hike in a forest or just sit outside and appreciate the sounds and sights of spring. We don’t need to go out to events to be entertained.

The team at Connecting Albert County want to encourage residents of Albert County and beyond to protect themselves and loved ones from the novel Coronavirus COVID 19. To learn about the latest news and recommendations about the virus, please see the website from the Chief Medical Officer of Health: www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/ocmoh/cdc/content/respiratory_diseases/coronavirus.html. CBC also has a list of closures and cancellations at newsinteractives.cbc.ca/localcovid19/?region=NB

We realize that many events on the Connecting Albert County calendar have been postponed or cancelled. If you have organized an event that has now been cancelled, please let us know. It is unlikely we can keep track of all of the postponements and cancellations. For that reason, we encourage you to contact the event organizer before going to an event and heed the advice from the Chief Medical Officer of Health.
