Sign the North Beach Strong Banner

With the CDC declaring May 11, 2023 the end of the federal COVID-19 public health emergency, it is fitting to reflect on the impact of the pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak affected almost every aspect of our lives since 2020. In the early days of the pandemic, the Town of North Beach underwent significant changes in how it conducted business, how town staff performed their duties, and how town residents went about their daily activities. Many town businesses had to adapt and modify their operations to keep their doors open. Some of these changes became permanent fixtures in our lives.

In April 2020, as a message of encouragement for residents and visitors, the North Beach Strong banner was displayed on the balcony of Town Hall. Today, the banner hangs in the Town Hall lobby. You are welcome to visit Town Hall and add your signature to the banner. You can also take a photo if you like. There are plans to donate the North Beach Strong banner to the Bayside History Museum to preserve this moment in history and ensure it is not forgotten.

If you would like to sign the North Beach Strong banner, you can visit Town Hall Monday through Friday (excluding holidays) between 9 am and 4 pm. The banner is located just inside the front door. We hope to collect signatures from as many people as possible and make the banner a lasting tribute to the resilience and strength of our community during this challenging time.
