Roswell Promotes ‘Come Back Safely’ Pledge

Mutual obligation and commit to each other's health is the idea behind Roswell's "Come Back Safely" Pledge.

ROSWELL, GA — The health and safety of everyone who lives, works, and visits the community is a top concern, as the City of Roswell does its part to slow down the spread of COVID-19. Keeping each other healthy is a shared commitment. Helping local business owners, employees, residents, and visitors remember that mutual obligation and commit to each other’s health is the idea behind the “Come Back Safely” Pledge, a collaboration among the City of Roswell, and its economic development and tourism partners, Roswell Inc and Visit Roswell (Convention and Visitors Bureau).

“The Come Back Safely pledge is a promise that anyone who lives, works, and plays in Roswell can take to assure their neighbors and the broader community that they will take necessary precautions like washing or sanitizing hands, following physical-distancing guidelines, wearing face coverings/masks, and staying home when feeling ill,” Roswell Mayor Lori Henry said. “By communicating a shared responsibility and commitment to safety and compliance, we can work together to help cultivate a greater sense of care and confidence in public environments.”
