Step Up Volusia

We've been a little quiet lately, but that's also because we've been seeing a shift of people doing the right thing by washing up, backing up and masking up.

We won't win overnight, but we believe progress is being made toward beating this virus and taking our communities back.

Our leaders are also doing a great job in working to provide more testing to our residents. This drive-up testing site at the Volusia County Fairground is having a soft opening today and is one of a handful in the state.

The Florida Division of Emergency Management will offer COVID-19 testing beginning Friday, Aug. 14, at the Volusia County Fair Grounds, 3150 E. New York Ave., DeLand. Testing will be available from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursdays through Tuesdays. The drive-up site will provide both viral and antibody testing. Appointments for viral testing can be made online at www.doineedacovid19test.com/. Learn more at http://ow.ly/zItt50AWUpF.

The City of DeBary is stepping up! These banners look great!

Pretty simple y’all.

Wash up. Back Up. Mask Up.
