*Sam Vance's Experience:*

I just got my shot [Friday}.  From my understanding, they are doing 
about 500 vaccinations a day, only 300 of which are scheduled.  If you 
show up around 2pm even without an appointment, they will direct you 
around the back of the building into a queue of cars.  They will hand 
you some paperwork to fill out and by the time you have finished, 
they’ll send you around to the front of the building to park.  Head 
inside with your paperwork, they’ll take your temperature, and send you 
in to the room for your vaccination.  We waited about 10 minutes outside 
(which is about how long it took to fill in the paperwork), 5 minutes 
inside, 5 minutes for the vaccine, and then they make you wait for 15 
minutes before you leave.  They’ll send you off with a vaccination card 
and a scheduled date for your second dose.

All I needed was a copy of my Medicare card (they want that number on 
the paperwork).  They never asked to see my ID to verify my age.

Regards,
Sam

PS: Ignore the "Appt Only” signs out front.
