Jennifer Fitzpatrick, Humboldt’s director of cultural services, said that all information provided will be kept for research and information purposes, even if it doesn’t make it into the exhibit. “This is part of the larger redesign of the museum to ensure that when visitors come, they have stories to view that are specific to our area, not, let’s say, more of a pioneer exhibit,” Fitzpatrick said. “We want to ensure the stories are related to Humboldt experiences and we know the community has these fantastic stories.” The exhibit is planned to be displayed early summer and kept up for about a year.
In his first COVID-19 briefing as mayor of Santa Clarita, Bill Miranda reiterated a clear message Friday to the community: Be safe this holiday season.
“We want to wish you all, our citizens of Santa Clarita, a very safe and enjoyable holiday season. Do your best,” he said in a city broadcast. “I know we all want to socialize; I know we all want to get with family and friends. Do it virtually if you can. Be safe. It’s very important. We’re running out of ICU beds be safe.”
His message comes a day after the intensive care unit availability in the Southern California region reached 0% and as Los Angeles County continues to report thousands of new diagnoses and hospitalizations daily.
Santa Clarita Mayor Thanks Healthcare Workers At Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital
On Friday, Santa Clarita Mayor Bill Miranda hosted a Facebook live with Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital staff to check-in and offer gratitude to the healthcare workers in our community.
“Our frontline medical workers have been working for months upon months in our community, for our community members in our time of need,” said Miranda. “These nurses, doctors and other hospital staff are now stretched thin and are overwhelmed, emotionally and physically. Today we want to let those essential workers know how much we appreciate the work that they’re doing.”
In October, students at Mount Paran Christian School assisted members of the Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health â Georgia community by providing hand-crafted fabric face masks.
MPCS chief development officer Jennifer New reached out to high school teacher Jennifer Fitzpatrick to coordinate a sewing effort from the schoolâs four theatre costuming classes. Fitzpatrick and her students agreed to assist, planning to make more than 100 masks over the course of the school year.
While students in the theatre costuming classes typically create elaborate costumes for the schoolâs award-winning musicals, this year has been a bit different. With restrictions on large-group gatherings, the theatre costuming students have not had as many opportunities to practice their sewing skills.
