The program coordinates the placement of personalized radio transmitter wristbands on individuals who are at risk of wandering away from their homes and trains law enforcement on usage of the tracking mechanism. This type of technology not only helps track individuals and return them home safely in minimal time, but also benefits communities by significantly cutting down on deployment of and the time spent by local law enforcement and rescue operations in widespread searches. “The Lincoln Hills Foundation is happy that we are able to support our local Police Department in this important deployment” said vice President Frima Stewart. “Cutting down the time to find a loved one could potentially save a life.” In a past collaboration with local law enforcement, the Lincoln Hills Foundation has also provided AED’s to the City of Lincoln. The Lincoln Hills Foundation is a non-profit Community Benefit Corporation 501(c)(3). Tax I.D. #68-0488670. No goods or services were provided in return for this donation. (fb)

The Lincoln Hills Foundation is offering an opportunity to get your favorite family recipes published! We all have memories of making something special for children and grandchildren and even food that our own mothers and grandmothers made for us. The Lincoln Hills Foundation is creating a community cookbook that will feature recipes that our residents have been making to the delight of their families over the years, and now you have a chance to share these recipes with friends and neighbors as well. Your name will be included with your recipe! In addition to your name, tell us something about it. Where did it come from (a treasured family recipe)? What made it a family favorite? Was it a special occasion request? Tips or tricks when making it? Suggestions for what to serve with it? We will print your brief comments up to a few lines or 375 characters. We will begin accepting submissions March 1st and will be collecting through the end of April so get out those recipes and share some of your family’s best with your friends and neighbors in Lincoln Hills. Based on number of recipes received we may have to limit the number printed. Submissions should be typed in a Word or Pages document or clearly written so we don’t make mistakes when typing it up. Please send via email to cfhigh23@icloud.com or mail to Lincoln Hills Foundation – Recipes, PO Box 220, Lincoln, CA 95648. The pandemic has driven everyone to eat at home more and there has been a resurgence of home cooking. With that in mind we are looking for easy-to-make recipes, with ingredients that are not extravagantly priced and can usually be found in our local grocery stores (or a two-day delivery from Amazon for specialty items). Recipes should not have too many ingredients and generally not take too long to prepare with the exception of slow cooker favorites. We will be selling the book this summer and all proceeds from sales will be put back into this community to support programs and services for our residents. (fb)
