Need all hands on deck! The Onondaga County Legislature will hear public comments on the budget starting at 5pm at the courthouse, 401 Montgomery St., 4th Floor.
Speaking on our behalf will be Christine Herb, Volunteer Coordinator, nurse practitioner, support group leader and mother of a young woman who has suffered terribly for years with tick-borne disease. We are rallying the troops, to have as many supporters in the room as possible, and would SO appreciate it if you can be there.
Apologies for the short notice - we had the date wrong.

Depending on where you live or play, these are the ticks and the likelihood of an encounter during October. As you can see in the graph, October is DOMINATED by adult stage blacklegged ticks, and they start their active season with a BANG usually after the first week of Oct. And it only gets more intense from there...thru Thanksgiving! So, keep tucking shirts and pant legs, and check regularly. More info to stay TickSafe - bit.ly/fallticks
