4. Tuesday Evening Bike Ride: Enjoy a casual neighborhood bike ride through Rockville hosted by the Rockville Bicycle Advisory Committee. The ride lasts about one hour and starts at 6:30 p.m. Riders meet at the Rockville Civic Center Park. The route is on on paved, shared-use paths, some sidewalks, and quiet streets. The group rides at the pace of the slowest rider – no one gets left behind. Rain or an impending storm at start cancels the ride; wet pavement does not.
5. Monkeypox Vaccine: Montgomery County is currently vaccinating a very small group of high-risk individuals. The health department released a preregistration survey for those interested in a vaccination when the county receives more doses.
