ELKINS On Feb. 24, the Elkins- Randolph County Chamber of Commerce held the first installment of Distance Socially, Eat Locally. The event took place at 1863 Appalachian Bistro and was sponsored by Davis Trust Company. 68 meals were picked up curbside between 4 and 6 p.m.
The Distance Socially, Eat Locally event series was created by the Chamber to encourage the community to support locally-owned businesses during this unprecedented time. Members of the community were able to pre-order their meals through the Chamber and then pick them up curbside. The event served as a way to foster support for local businesses while offering a safe alternative to indoor dining.
