Carmel firefighters offering free hand sanitizer at today’s Farmers Market

The Carmel Fire Department will set up a special COVID-19 information booth at the season opening of the Carmel Farmers Market from 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. today, Saturday, May 2. CFD will hand out information on COVID-19 safety, answer questions from the public, and distribute free bottles of hand sanitizer while supplies last.

During the event, representatives from CFD will wear masks and maintain physical distancing guidelines to avoid possible spread of the virus. Because the market is open to the public, visitors should also wear masks and maintain proper distance from others as they approach the booth.

The goal of this booth is to continue to provide the community with COVID-19 information, including handouts showing the City of Carmel and Carmel Fire Department “Best Practices” for dealing with the virus.
