ALAMO RC&D is holding two food distributions: the first is Thursday, June 4 and the second is Thursday, June 18, 5-6:30 p.m. Both will be held at Faith Tabernacle, 7789 FM 1283. Senior citizens must be pre-registered at alamorcd.org. It will be “drive and drop” curbside, following social distancing, and by appointment only.
CENSUS is still going on. We can fill it out online at 2020census.gov. If we are not counted now, we will not count in the future and our favorite programs will not be funded adequately.
HILL COUNTRY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, located at 6346 FM 1283, is continuing to provide, until July 23, school breakfasts and lunches, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the parent pick-up line, on Mondays and Thursdays.
