During this year long pandemic I kept thinking to myself, Boy I m sure glad I am not Jarrod Welch, the Director of the Adams County Health Department . All this man has done is try to keep people safe and even from dying for the past twelve months and has been criticized for it..
I now know, in a much smaller capacity, just how he must feel as he tries to do what he believes is right for everybody. My decision to cancel this year s St. Patrick s Parade has brought with it a cavalcade of comments ranging from great decision to you are a complete dumb . That last comment came over the phone from an unidentified caller. I tried to convince this guy to read my previous story on the Y101 Radio webpage and then call me back. I thought he might have a different opinion of me if he would do so.
