To the editor:

Thank you to the Brown County Lions Club for giving us a grant to procure handwashing signs for Brown County food establishments. Through a generous grant by the Lions, we will be able to provide 25 handwashing signs for our county restaurants.

The health department environmental team really appreciates the support of the Lions Club in our endeavors to keep food safe in Brown County.

Jennifer Heller Rugenstein, environmental health specialist, Brown County Health Department
