Working Remotely, Keeping the Kids Busy, Ways You Can Help and More
It’s a challenging time, and we understand you may be struggling with how to maintain everyday activities.
The KSC Team and I would like to offer a few simple ideas for you that we hope will assist you and ease your concerns:
- Use social media and email to share updates with your clients. Here’s a great example –
A restaurant in Tomahawk shared this so that folks would feel confident in continuing to patronize the business.
- Could you use a virtual meeting option? We have a GoToMeeting account that we’re happy to share with you at no cost.
- Share factual information from trustworthy sources.
- For Business Owners – https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/organizations/businesses-employers.html.
- You can share these resources on your social media channels, or post these informational flyers in your business – https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/communication/factsheets.html.

- Are there opportunities to volunteer or assist the less fortunate in your community? As an example, the Rhinelander Food Pantry is seeking volunteers to help distribute food – and has a safety plan in place to protect volunteers. Share other opportunities you may be aware of.
We’ve started the Northwoods Coronavirus Help Facebook group to offer local information and connect neighbors seeking assistance with neighbors who want to help. We invite you to join, and share any information you feel is relevant.
We are here to help you! Feel free to call or email us if you have any questions or need any assistance.
As we work together to safeguard our families, our community and ourselves, here are great words from Mark Twain – “Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.”
