Announcements
The Department of Agriculture is reviewing our homes and
centers this month - they will have ID Badges on - be sure you
let them enter to see your meal service. IF you don't have a
"Building for the Future" poster in English and in Spanish,
please call the office or just download from our website. So
far, it sounds like the visits are going very well, (of course :).
Be sure you can print your forms (check your ink and paper
supply) if you keep your records electronically.
Reminder, if you are open during the holiday, a sign in sheet is
required. Please let us know if you are closed for an extended
period. Our office will be closed Dec 24-26 and 31 - Jan 2, but
the fax works 24/7.
I hope this Christmas is especially joyous for you this year, and
that the new year brings you continued blessings and daily
kindness.
