Mary Robosson Special to the Daily News More than a year ago, when the weight of the COVID-19 pandemic began to be felt, the Palm Beach Civic Association acted swiftly to keep our members, directors and employees safe. Events were canceled or postponed. A remote work policy was enacted for our staff. From March 13, 2020, through our annual meeting on April 30, an entire year passed without any in-person gatherings. All internal meetings were conducted electronically. Yet we managed to make it through a global pandemic, never once hitting the pause button, to serve our community in ways like we had never done before.
