Holiday Post Office Hours Starting Wednesday, December 7, 2022

The Post Office will be closed for sorting between 1330 (1:30pm) and 1530 (3:30pm). 
 
There are too many parcels and the interruptions to handle the front desk puts us too far behind to complete the sorting.  Thank you for your consideration in this as we are trying to get the parcels available to you in a timely matter.
