Cards for Health Care Heroes Campaign
Giving Thanks: Dane County Calls on Community to Join "Cards for Health Care Heroes" Campaign
Families
and kids across Dane County are encouraged to color, draw, and write notes of
thanks and encouragement to health care workers this Thanksgiving holiday, as
the Covid-19 pandemic continues to worsen. Dane County Executive Joe Parisi
announced today "Cards for Health Care Heroes," an effort to
recognize the tireless and challenging work that thousands of doctors, nurses,
specialists, emergency services responders and providers are doing in this
community every hour of every day.
"This
Thanksgiving, I'm hopeful families will give some thought to what they would
say to a doctor or a nurse if they could, and then put those words, colors, and
pictures of kindness to paper," Parisi said. "We are a deeply caring
community and countless folks have asked me in recent weeks what they can do to
help in the midst of this incredibly difficult time. Together, let's do a
communitywide simple act of kindness," he added.
Parisi's
announcement of "Cards for Health Care Heroes" comes in the wake of
an open letter to Wisconsin authored by UW Health that was published on Sunday.
Families
can send in their cards by mail to:
Dane
County
Room 421
210 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd
Madison, WI 53703
Participants
can also submit their cards electronically at https://exec.countyofdane.com/CardsForHeroes
Dane
County will collect the cards and distribute them to health care providers in
early December.
"This
has been a most challenging year, and all of us have sacrificed greatly,"
Parisi said. "Through it all we have much to be thankful for, including
people who get up every day to care for others. To our doctors, nurses, and all
medical providers - we are incredibly grateful for you. We hear you. We know
you are hurting. We know that we all can do things to help you get through what
until now was unthinkable. First and foremost, we want to say thank you."

Heritage Hills Blasting
The contractor for the Heritage Hills subdivision, at the corner of North Division Street and STH 19/113, will be blasting between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 18, 2020.
There will be three air horn signals sounded one minute prior to each blast followed by one prolonged air horn signal after each blast is deemed all clear. On average each blast duration is 500 milliseconds, equivalent to half of a second.
Ground vibration and air blast will be measured by Vibra-Tech with three permanent seismographs located on the West and North side of the subdivision property. All drilling and blasting operations will be conducted in accordance with:
