SUMMER HEAT
Summer is finally here and with the heat comes the
importance of staying hydrated. Be sure to drink
plenty of water and/or consuming fruits and vegeta-
bles that contain water, such as cucumbers, water-
melon or tomatoes.
Hail and Farewell
We want to wish our nutrition assistant,
Nicki McNulty a fond farewell as she starts
a new adventure in her life. She leaves
big shoes to fill and will be missed.
At the same time we are happy to wel-
come Judy Lyon as our new nutrition as-
sistant. Judy comes to us with tons of
kitchen and chef experience, as well as ex-
perience working with volunteers and char-
ity events. She is excited about her new
position and looks forward to serving our
clients.

For fact based information on Covid-19 — Skagit County
Public Health Customer Service counters are closed to
the public to promote social distancing and prevent the
further spread of Covid-19. You may contact them during
normal office hours: Mon.– Fri. 8:30am—4:30pm at 360-
416-1500
We are anxious to open , but Skagit County Senior Centers will remain closed until
Phase 4 of Washington States Plan for Re-opening. This means that NO activities of any
type or size will be allowable at the senior centers until we are in Phase 4. Our seniors
are not only in the high risk age group, but many of them have compounding health is-
sues. Covid-19 spreads very easily in group settings. The Meal program, Meals on
Wheels and Frozen meal pick-ups will continue. This program is vital. If you need infor-
mation on Meals on Wheels please call us at 360-416-1585 or 360-416-1500 for more
information. We hope you find ways to stay connected, stay healthy, stay engaged, stay
positive, and stay safe!! WE MISS YOU!!!
