The State of California has extended its indoor mask mandate through at least February 15, 2022. This is in light of the fact that California’s 7-day average of daily new Covid-19 cases almost doubled between December 31 and January 5. In other words: the omicron variant is here and it is very busy.

Please wear a high-quality mask over your nose and mouth and stay safe, everyone. You can find information on where to get Covid vaccines and boosters in Monterey County here.

Rest assured that all our Lighthouse District businesses remain open, and many offer options for people wishing to be more cautious, including take-out service from restaurants and curbside pick-up and shipping from many retail shops.

A special thanks from all of us to all of you - our valued customers and friends - for continuing to support our local, family-owned businesses!
