The old adage “It takes a Village” was never more apparent than in this valiant and successful effort when over 4,500 people were vaccinated with their 1st and 2nd doses this past March and April at Oswego High School. “The community came together and worked as one since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Troy
