Sharon Offering Face Masks To Residents

The Sharon Fire Department and Board of Health are making face mask available to residents at the Public Safety Building and Town Hall.

SHARON, MA — With the state's new mandatory face mask order taking effect on Wednesday, but actual masks being in short supply for purchase, the Sharon Fire Department and Sharon Board of Health have made masks available for Sharon residents who need one.

Masks can be found in the vestibules at the Sharon Public Safety Building or the Sharon Town Hall. Residents are asked to respect the supply limits per person.

These masks are for short-term use. Residents should look for more reusable cloth masks when they can. Residents can also learn how to make their own masks here.
