Final Health and Wellness Forum tonight in Kelseyville
Health is an enabling factor for everything we do. When we are well, personally, we are positioned to make our best contributions and the whole community benefits. Further, there are things that we can do, as individuals, that improve the chances that those in our communities will have positive health outcomes.
Since late April, members of the Board of Supervisors, County staff, Hope Rising and other partners have been progressing toward the best possible plan by hosting Community Visioning Forums, to engage the public and invite broader collaboration on the topic of Community Health and Wellness.
“So far, hundreds of County residents have attended or viewed one of these Forums on Facebook,” shares Health Services Director, Denise Pomeroy. “We are encouraged that so many have shown an interest in promoting community health, and we have received some really valuable input.”
Tonight, in Kelseyville, 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. is the last of this series of Community Visioning Forums on Health and Wellness. District 5 residents and all others throughout the County who may have missed the meeting in their own District are strongly encouraged to participate: Kelseyville Presbyterian Church, 5340 3rd St., Kelseyville
“We are committed to working with local residents toward a healthier Lake County,” assures Pomeroy, “and there is a lot of work already in progress. We need your partnership to further this work, and we need you to contribute to this crucial community conversation.”
The community’s priorities are reflected in the County’s Vision 2028 statement, and the Lake County Economic Development Strategy, which was recently adopted by all three local governments. More information on these efforts can be found at http://www.lakecountyca.gov/vision/.

Final guided nature walk of Spring to be held June 8 at Anderson Marsh State Historic Park
Anderson Marsh State Historic Park (AMSHP) continues to hold monthly guided nature walks. The final guided walk of spring 2018 is scheduled for Saturday, June 8. Participants are asked to meet in the parking lot at 8:15 a.m. to have time to experience the early morning wildlife to be found in the Ranch House and Barn complex yard. The walk begins at 8:30 a.m. There is no parking fee for those attending.
Join park docent and Certified California Naturalist Nicola Selph, as she leads a leisurely walk along the Ridge & Marsh Trails. As the Park settles into summer, this should be a great opportunity to see resident birds, late spring flowers and dragon flies. Bring your binoculars. At this time of year, you are also encouraged to bring sun hats and water.
The 2½ to 3-mile guided walk will begin and end at the parking lot and should take about two hours. There will be a tour of the historic Anderson Ranch House after the walk. If rain cancels the walk the tour will begin at 8:30 a.m.
Anderson Marsh State Historic Park is located on Hwy 53, between Lower Lake and Clearlake. For more information about the walks, email info@andersonmarsh.org or call (707) 995-2658. More information about AMIA can be found at www.andersonmarsh.org.
