Vaccine Incentives Target New York’s Outdoorsmen! How’d You Like a New Kayak?
To vaccinate or not to vaccinate, that is the question! Well, it is the question for some people and since the vaccine has been available in New York there have been incentives put in place to encourage residents to "get the shot".
New York State incentives to vaccinate have been offered in a variety of ways from awarding passes to state parks, lottery tickets and even a full scholarship to a SUNY or CUNY school! Now the "shot" takes on a whole new incentive.
