Columbus Park Pop-up Vaccine Clinic, No Appointment Needed

MAMARONECK, NY — The Food Pantry Distribution Tent at Columbus Park in Mamaroneck has been an essential resource for members of the community struggling with food insecurity, but on Tuesday, the Larchmont-Mamaroneck Hunger Task Force site will offer a different kind of lifeline.

The tent will host a free pop-up coronavirus vaccination clinic. Although the clinic will be especially convenient for Food Pantry clients, the no-appointment needed mass vaccination event will be open to anyone in the community 18-years-old or older who would like to receive their first dose of the Moderna vaccine.

The pop-vaccine event will take place May 18, from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Columbus Park is located directly opposite the Mamaroneck Train Station, making the clinic a convenient stop for MTA commuters coming home from work.

The vaccine event was organized through a partnership with Larchmont-Mamaroneck Hunger Task Force and the Office of State Senator Shelley Mayer. Volunteers from the Village of Mamaroneck, The Village of Mamaroneck Parks and Recreation and Empress Emergency Medical Services will staff the pop-up vaccine clinic.
