meet

Nancy Hernandez In this Fall/Winter edition of the Colton Connection, we are proud to be highlighting Nancy Hernandez or “Ms. Nancy” as she is known to the children and families she serves. Ms. Nancy is a Teacher for the Early Care and Education (ECE) Division, in the Community Service Department, and has been working for the City of Colton since 2015. Ms. Nancy began working with children while stationed in Okinawa, Japan and has over 23 years in the Field of Child Development. When Ms. Nancy first started in the ECE Division, she was dubbed as the “Super Sub.” No matter which facility within the ECE Division Ms. Nancy substituted at, she quickly became a valuable asset and team member for that site. It did not take Ms. Nancy long to find a more permanent home at our Paul J. Roger’s facility. For the last two+ years, Ms. Nancy has been a staple in both the Preschool and the School Age Programs at PJR. Ms. Nancy is a proud community member of Colton and it is a place she calls home. Ms. Nancy is the wife of Retired MGySgt Socorro Hernandez. She has two sons, Lance and Derrick, and two dogs, Charlie Brown and Tiny Tim. When not at work, Ms. Nancy likes to travel, especially on cruises. Ms. Nancy also likes to hike, garden and clean her house. If you see Ms. Nancy around town, on a boat, or in her second home of PJR, please say “hello.”

Colton Parks & Recreation Foundation

Q[[[[[[[[[[[R Support your city programs Colton Parks & Recreation Foundation Mission Statement

The purpose of the Foundation is to aid, sponsor, promote, advance, and develop park and recreation opportunities for all citizens of Colton.

FUNDRAISING PROGRAMS RECREATION SCHOLARSHIPS

GOLDEN YEARS PROGRAM

This is the original Parks & Recreation Foundation program. The Program funds scholarships to income-eligible Colton families for children to attend City-sponsored programs that they otherwise might not be able to afford.

The Golden Years Program utilizes funding to promote programs, facilities, and services for Colton’s senior citizen population. Health services, nutrition programs, group classes, and special events are examples of programs geared toward our “more experienced” residents.

The Recreation Scholarship Program has awarded over $100,000 in scholarships to hundreds of children since 2003. Scholarships are available to Colton Residents for youth CSD programs. Proof of residency and income verification required. Applications are available at the Gonzales Community Center.

Other programs include: • PARK ENRICHMENT • YOUTH EMPOWERMENT • FRIENDS-IN-NEED PROGRAM

HISTORIC COLTON PROGRAM

The Historic Colton Program makes funds available to support City programs which celebrate Colton’s rich history, dating to 1887. Current programs include the annual City Birthday Celebration and the Colton Sports Hall of Fame.

All Funding collected by the Foundation directly benefits the Colton community. You may contribute to the Foundation as a whole, or designate a specific program that you wish your donation to benefit.
