The pass can be used the day of getting a COVID shot or on another day. You can drop in or make an appointment ahead of time.

The three clinics will be held on:

• September 4: 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
• September 30: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
• October 21: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

If you get the Pfizer vaccine on the 4th, the second dose will be administered on the 30th. If you get the first dose on the 30th, the second dose will be administered on Oct. 21.

But if you get the first dose on Oct. 21, an appointment will need to be scheduled for an alternate location.
