These services include home-delivered meals for homebound seniors, congregate meals for community members over the age of 60, and other vital activities supporting the well-being of the elderly in Modoc County.
Awards will be given for the fastest runners in several categories: Fastest Male, Fastest Female, Fastest 40-59 years, Fastest Over 60, Fastest 9-12 years, and Fastest Under 9 years.
