Currently there is no mask bylaw in the Town of Viking.
The Beaver County mask bylaw does not extend into the towns and villages within its boundaries.
Although there is no mask bylaw in effect, in Viking, we strongly encourage all citizens to wear a mask when they are outside their homes.
Businesses are free to set their own guidelines. If they require masks in store that’s their policy, if you don’t like it don’t go in.
The Carena Kitchen is now closed and all ice activities have ceased for the 3-week period ending December 13, 2020, unless the Province extends the time.
Thank you,
Don R. McLeod - RMA
Chief Administrative Officer
