Celebrate Black History Month

There is currently not enough COVID-19 vaccine for the number of eligible residents to receive it. The City will continue to work with the county and state and will communicate updates to the community as they become available, including opportunities to receive the vaccine. Learn more about the COVID-19 vaccine with interactive tools on the Washington State Department of Health’s website.
