AKS Quarterly Newsletter
December 2020
2020 has been a challenging year for us all. We extend warm holiday greetings to all AKS family and friends. We're wishing you a very Merry Christmas, good health and well being in 2021, and keeping our fingers crossed that the new vaccines will prove to provide a return to a more social environment.
I've come across a few memes from the lighter side of COVID-19 that I'd like to share. Enjoy!

Website Updates
So far so good. Lots of work but our webpages are rendering very nicely on smaller screens. Still much to do, but will eventually cover all pages.
As always, if you have problems with the new design, or have requests or comments, please don't hesitate to email me at AKS Webmaster
Let's keep the recovery going by adhering to our (un)social-distancing practices. Be diligent in keeping our 6 foot perimeters, washing hands, covering a cough or sneeze, washing hands, staying positive, washing hands, catching up on reading, movies and board games with "also bored" family members, washing hands, wear your masks to the grocery store - and IN the grocery store, washing hands, DON'T TOUCH YOUR FACE - or anyone else's! Oh! and WASH YOUR HANDS!! If we are vigilent, we CAN prevent a re-lapse. Let's work together (from 6 feet). We CAN do this!
