Robles Junction Newsletter June 2010
The Altar Valley School District recently received a generous do-
nation of books from the Wickenburg Health Care Alliance. These
books are designed to help parents teach their children about health
and nutrition. There were enough books to give every Altar Valley
School family one set of books. The books were sent home with one
student from each family.
The books were written by Dr. Thomas Matlock, with the help of
his sister Judith Matlock Creighton PHD and their brother Gerald
Matlock PHD. Their goal was to provide easy to understand health
information for families. Together they formed the Wickenburg
Health Care Alliance. The information in these books are for educa-
tional purposes only and are not a substitute for professional medical
advice.
Altar Valley Families received a 2 book set. In the book
“The Health Education Primer” parents found interesting in-
formation concerning a wide variety of Health subjects. Each
subject is written in easy to understand language so parents and
children can explore the information together. This book was
also available in
Spanish.
“Nutrition Lessons for Kids (and Their Parents)” is a book de-
signed for parents to teach their children about nutrition. Each 2
page lesson has a learning objective, a reading assignment, activities
and a question and answer section.
This is a fun way for parents to share the importance of nutrition
with their children.
Trish Hastings-Sargent, Parent Involvement Coordinator, who orga-
nized the distribution of the books said, ―The Altar Valley School
District is very fortunate to have received these wonderful books. I
have heard from several parents how impressed they are with these
books and feel they are a welcome addition to their home libraries.‖

cases of donated books.

Food Bank:
Thanks to FORR, the biological
parents of our food bank, to the
Holy Way Presbyterian Church
who is our foster parent and to all
of our local supporters, we were
able to provide more extras for this
location, like coffee, fresh eggs,
frozen meat, pampers, personal
hygiene stuff.
I am thrilled and hopeful our luck
will continue. Thanks to everyone:
Connie and Selby, you are both
my right and left hand (I wonder
how I can go home without you
girls?). Steve, you are the official
food bank handyman, what an
honor, eh? Danielle, you have a lot
of potential girl smarts and you are
hard working so you should be
able to accomplish everything you
young men to dress up in white
and walk the isle with their floral
tribute to the Lord .. UH … tradi-
tions … and why don’t you guys
make a tradition of joining your
Senior Program? May was a lucky
month for Charlotte H. She won
the best female buddy and the sal-
sa contest. Thanks to Cato our dear
mothers in the program received
sterling silver jewelry for Mother’s
Day, some get new photos from
Quest, and some cloths from Cato,
too. See ya!
Senior Program:
Hello! Unbelievable but true, we
are in the middle of the year 2010
already. When I was a little girl
(about 10 year ago) and being
catholic, May was the month dedi-
cated to our dear mother, and
mother of the Lord, virgin Mary.
Everyday, after school, we would
dress up in a beautiful white dress
and grab as many flowers as we
could hol in our arms, all kinds of
flowers, and go to church and offer
them to her. I close my eyes and
go back in time picturing all of
these innocent little girls walking
in the middle of the church to give
thanks to the virgin Mary for giv-
ing us her son …. Well?
The senior program is right here
waiting for all of you young ladies,
now seniors to come to the pro-
gram and enjoy all the things we
have to offer: field trips, hot meals
three times a week, arts & crafts,
games, socialization. June was the
month of the Lord in this catholic
tradition, it was the time for the

Quotations About Life
Life is about a blanket too short. You pull it up and your toes rebel, you
yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder; but cheerful
folks manage to draw their knees up and pass a very comfortable night.
— Marion Howard
Don’t think of retiring from the world until the world will be sorry that
you retire. I hate a fellow whom pride or cowardice or laziness drive
into a corner, and who does nothing when he is there but sit and growl.
Let him come out as I do, and bark.
—Samuel Johnson
