Coronavirus Branford Update: Share Positive Thoughts Cosgove Says

BRANFORD, CT — First Selectman Jamie Cosgrove hopes residents will share "positive thoughts" as the community faces the unprecedented coronavirus pandemic.

"As we continue to navigate through the uncharted waters and concerns with COVID-19, we continue to take the necessary steps to protect our employees, our residents and our entire community," Cosgrove said in a press release. "During this time we also think it is important to help keep us all connected and maintain a positive outlook."

Enter 'positive thoughts.'

"We believe that positive messaging is an important way to help each other get through this turbulent time. Did you write a message at the end of your driveway in chalk? Did your child color a picture that has a positive or encouraging message? Did you take a picture of a beautiful sunset? Do you have a positive quote you would like to share?"

Cosgove says to email those thoughts or images to positivethoughts@branford-ct.gov.

"Each day we will select some of those thoughts or images to share with the entire community by posting them on the town departments Facebook pages. All thoughts or images will also include your first name and last initial. So if you send us something check out our Facebook pages to see if we shared it."
