Here is a note from the Board of Health Chairperson, Cathy Hansgate:

Hubbardston is listed by the state as a 'green' risk level this week, and we have had a total of 48 cases. This news means that most people are really following the COVID-19 guidelines, BUT these numbers are higher than over the summer ------ so we must keep masking, distancing, washing hands and using hand sanitizer after touching things that others have handled. The BOH has set up a subcommittee to plan for vaccination clinics for the spring. We will keep you updated with our town's efforts to this end. Thank you for caring for yourselves, your family, and your neighbors.
