Unlock the heart of Hanford's community spirit as we promise an episode filled with compelling stories, impactful local news, and festive events. Featuring Missy Chavez, we shine a spotlight on the Wreaths Across America event that brings our community together to honor veterans at Grangeville Cemetery. This episode also delves into significant news, including the closure of the Del Monte plant and the latest changes in the Hanford City Council, where new leadership is taking the helm. We introduce the MyHanford app, an innovative tool to simplify city service requests, and discuss our city's proactive steps to tackle homelessness through a planned homeless navigation center.
Join us as we celebrate the dedication of Kings County volunteers, inspired by Rich Rhodes' poignant discovery of unmarked veterans' graves, galvanizing a movement to secure wreaths for every hero. We express gratitude to donors and share a personal connection to the heartfelt theme, "Say Their Name." From festive community events like the Episcopal Church's Christmas Around the World to the Nutcracker ballet and the Run Run Rudolph charity run, our calendar is packed with holiday cheer. As we wrap up, we encourage listeners to share their thoughts via our survey, ensuring Hanford Insider remains a cherished community resource.
