Thanks to Health District

We want to extend a sincere thank you to Rick Miklich and his staff at the Snohomish Health District for their time and the food safety materials that were shared with the community in observance of Food Safety Education Month on September 7 and 8 at Smokey Point Food Pavilion and on September 21 and 22 at Everett Cost Cutter.

We value and applaud their contribution and distribution of free stem thermometers to the community. By providing people in the community with the tools and information to help reduce the unnecessary large number of cases of foodborne illnesses, this is a real service. With appreciation,

Food Safety Specialist
