Although it is believed that a fabric mask may reduce the risk of transmitting COVID-19, it does not take the place of staying home as much as possible and maintaining a distance from other persons of at least 6′ when you must leave your home.

The information below is not a paid advertisement for Kari’s Sew Unique, but the Banner is not aware of anyplace else that is closeby offering mask kits. The store is located at 12524 E. County Rd N, Whitewater, WI (behind the Animal Medical Center.) Per their website, they are currently only available to take calls on Monday through Wednesday from 10 a.m. – noon. More information re: the masks is available there.
