Building
Healthy Communities
Building Healthy Communities is a
10-year, $1 billion plan of The California Endowment.
In connection with staff-led, statewide policy initiatives,
14 communities, including Southwest Merced/East
Merced County, are taking action to make where they
live healthier. They’re doing this by improving
employment opportunities, education, housing, neighborhood
safety, unhealthy environmental conditions, access
to healthy food and more. The goal: to create places
where children are healthy, safe and ready to learn.
Ultimately, we’re aiming at nothing less than
a transformation in the way all of us think about
and support health for all Californians. For more
information, please visit www.calendow.org/healthycommunities/

Welcome Center is Looking
for Volunteers!
Friendly, outgoing individuals are
needed! If you enjoy working with the public and
sharing your knowledge about the City of Merced
and the State of California, your help is needed
to volunteer in the Welcome Center and at special
events.
The California Welcome Center is dedicated
to serving California's guests and residents. The
Welcome Center provides visitor information for
our surrounding area as well as information about
the state of California. Maps, brochures and travel
ideas are available at each Welcome Center. Merced
is fortunate to have one of only ten such centers
in California. Housed in the Merced Conference and
Visitors Bureau, located at 710 West16th Street,
the Welcome Center is a popular stopping point for
visitors and residents for information about things
to do and places to go. The Welcome Center is open
from 8:30am – 5:00 pm seven days per week
excluding major holidays. Weekday and weekend volunteers
are needed.
Hours are flexible. If you are interested
in volunteering, please contact Melyssa Laughlin
at 209-384-2791.

Do you have a old
flag that's laying around and you don't know what to
do with it? Then send it to us! We will properly dispose
of it according to the law.
The Kitchen
Table Gang Trust can retire your tattered, worn out
and frayed American flags.
Just send your flags
to the non-profit Kitchen Table Gang Trust, 42922 Avenue
12, Madera, CA 93638-8866 and we will dispose of your
flags in a proper and dignified manner with full honors
and dignity pursuant to the United States Flag Code
Section 8K (PL93-344).
The Kitchen Table Gang
(formed 15 years ago) is a "rag-tag" bunch
of patriotic military types helping hospitalized veterans
and soldiers overseas.
For more information,
contact Charles Taliaferro ctaliaferro@kitchentablegang.org
Our flag retirement
ceremonies are held on Flag Day, June 14th each year
and are conducted by an all volunteer military honor
guard. The Kitchen Table Gang Trust also has a nationally
recognized educational program for our young people
and students, teaching them the history, traditions
and respect for our national emblem.
What does it cost? Nothing!
But donations are greatly appreciated and allows us
to continue and even expand this program.
