“We will be offering a way to recognize our Hometown Heroes with donuts,” The Center stated. “You are encouraged to purchase donuts, inform us they are for Hometown Heroes and we will place a note thanking them for their service on the donut box. When you deliver the donuts, individuals or groups will know that you are recognizing them. We think of the frontline workers; physicians and nurses, but there are many behind the scenes also; educators, grocery store employees, convenience store workers, facility and housekeeping staff and more!”
The Center noted its staff, board members and volunteers will be following safety guidelines while making doughnuts and are wearing both masks and gloves. No individual doughnut sales will be offered. And no one will be allowed to enter The Center to pick up doughnuts. The doughnuts will be available for preorder only.
The Center is closed until further notice because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The doughnuts will be available for pickup between 7-11 a.m. Thursday at 803 Kingwood St. in Brainerd.
