During the past year, all employees at the Florida Department of Health in Flagler County have met an unprecedented challenge head on, a global pandemic. Health care workers at every level have been asked to work additional hours and expand their traditional roles to become part of the COVID-19 fight. This is particularly the case for nurses, many of whom worked on the front lines testing and now vaccinating the public.

The city has been marking its own July 4 celebrations in tandem with Flagler Beach since 2010, always a day before or a day after Flagler Beach’s big-draw event that’s held on July 4. The announcement was a surprise: it was not discussed by the city council, neither at a meeting nor at a workshop.
But this year, like last year, Flagler Beach has elected not to go ahead with its July 4 parade and fireworks, citing covid safety issues and the impossibility of practicing physical distancing along the parade route or even on the beach and along State Road A1A when the fireworks go off. Anyone who’s attended Flagler Beach’s July 4 celebrations would be familiar with its throngs of people as the barrier island bec
