In a move to set minds at-ease of Buckhead travelers, the nonprofit civic leadership Buckhead Coalition group has announced it will distribute masks for travelers, according to a press release.
Sam Massell, coalition president, explained there is no recommendation by locally-headquartered Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that such masks are needed, except in areas at risk, but that the Coalition is responding to community interests.
The throw-away paper masks will be mailed, two per package, as long as supply lasts, to all requests from Buckhead addresses. The Coalition’s contact is office@thebuckheadcoalition.org or 404-233-2228. Additionally, immediate acquisition may be had by visiting the Coalition offices during normal business hours, 8:30 – 5:30.
The Buckhead Coalition is a nonprofit civic association, much like a chamber of commerce, for the northern quadrant of the city of Atlanta. Its membership is limited to 100 CEOs of major area firms, by invitation. Its mission is to “nurture the quality of life and help coördinate an orderly growth” within its 28 square miles, with a population of over 96,000. It was formed in 1988. Its founding president is Sam Massell, a former mayor of Atlanta. Its chairman (changed every two years) is Joseph W. Evans, III, vice chairman of Cadence Bancorporation.
