KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas Citians who live in the 18th and Vine District will soon be able to sign up in-person to receive a COVID-19 vaccine.
Beginning Thursday, they can register between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, 1616 East 18th Street, for the March 22 vaccination event, which also will be at the museum.
