Editor’s Note Hello Readers! This issue is coming to you from one of the stranger situations we’ve had in the history of our publica- tion. As Covid-19 began to show signs of starting, we had made the difficult decision to move to an every-other-month publication cycle. In some ways, it’s been fortuitous to have the extra time to invest in the publications. In others, the time was hardly noticeable as we almost every waking moment was consumed with fear and worry. So many of us have already lost loved ones or have felt the effects of the virus and ensuing chaos. Continuing to produce a wedding issue, even in a minimal form, felt difficult. I canceled my own up- coming wedding to keep my loved ones safe, and know plenty of other people are making the same difficult decisions. Nevertheless, it’s important to remember that this will all end. Soon enough, we’ll be able to make plans and spend time with those we love. In the mean- time, I urge you to stay home when possible, be safe, and as always, make sure to support those around you who need help. Hopefully, our next issue, releasing in June, will find us all retunring to some semblance of normalcy. I for one hope that this situation also helps us all to realize how ciritcal public health is. With elections upcoming it’s important to note who in your community is doing thier part to help and who is causing roadblocks. Until next time, Kate Patterson
