PORTLAND - When the town decided to hold a vaccine clinic, there was no way to know Mother Nature would rollout a snowstorm on the day the shots were to be given.
But when the storm was inevitable last Monday, library staff members called the 80 people who had signed up to tell them the clinic had been re-scheduled to this past Friday, said Youth & Family Services and Senior Citizens Director Mary Pont.
It worked: Vaccinations were administered to 80 people on Friday.
Now, First Selectwoman Susan S. Bransfield said the town hopes to schedule additional clinics for the 100-plus residents 75 and older who have added their names to the list of those seeking the vaccination.
