Renfrew County residents aged 80 and up can soon register online for COVID-19 vaccine
Dr. Jason Malinowski, Chief of Staff at St. Francis Memorial Hospital, recently posted on social media that people in Renfrew County aged 80+ should get ready. “You’re up for COVID vaccine very soon. You will very likely need to register online, so if you need help, reach out to family or friends now. All you need is a few minutes and an email address. If you know someone who might need help, reach out to them.” Dr. Malinowski points out that teen grandkids could be a big help here.

Killaloe Heritage and Ecology Society says let’s talk museums
Hoch Farmhouse was demolished last year and the museum artefacts were put into storage. Now the Killaloe Heritage and Ecology Society invites community feedback and asks: Currently we have no home base or building. We could find a new home? Go virtual? Donate our collection to another museum and partner with them? Do small local displays (storefront displays, walking tours)? Please email comments and ideas to khr.pioneer.museum@hotmail.com
