Life is still sweet and we have CANDY!!!! and we really want to see you but we can’t:(

We were thinking of having a gathering outdoors but the increase in cases makes the Covid pandemic very dangerous and risky!

 

Please do NOT go out if you are not well, have fever, have been in contact with a sick person. Parents are completely responsible for their kids in these risky times. Follow Town of Amherst safety update. October 23, 2020 ARPS. Wear your scary mask on top of the Covid mask!

 

Some day in the future we will meet again in person and we will celebrate it all! with treats, photos, stories, crafts, games, prizes and spells! Most importantly, we hope to share a good time with you all in a fun, safe, human camaraderie! Keep up the ARMS spirit! We are all together in this.

 

Remember to check the Online store, help us with Stop n Shop, Florence bank grants, and just email us for any question and to volunteer too armspgo@gmail.com
