Hello Everyone:

I hope you had a very nice Mother’s Day. We had a

huge turn out for our May Buffet and many exciting

and fun raffles. There was recognition for all

past Presidents, Officers and Board. Recognition

was also given to all Providers being Licensed for

over 6 years. Also thank you to all past and new

Board, Officers, Providers and Lifetime Members.

We also had fun with Cultural Costumes and

prizes were given. The food was outstanding with

so many Cultural foods our taste buds were going

crazy, yum, yum!

Thank you to all who were involved in helping

with this great day FCCP, Inc now 36 years with

helping Providers. We help with Professionalism

and referrals, networking, enhancing the quality

of Childcare.

We are having an Open Enrollment for Medical

on this Saturday June 6 and Child Action 9961

Horn Road, you can come any time from 9am-3pm.

This is a great time to ask questions and pick or

choose your best plan, no need to spend the whole

day just what time it takes for you to sign up. Become

a member with FCCP and get a discounted

rate for CAFCC. Come check out the low cost of

Medical for you or your family.

Mark your calendars for Safetyville USA Saturday

June 13, from 10am to 4pm. Many booths to get

free stuff and knowledge, tell parents it is FREE.

We still need Volunteers for this day from 12-4pm

contact Teresa for more information.

Our next FCCP meeting will be Monday September

14, refer to the dates on the next page.

Make sure you keep all the little ones safe for the

summer with sun block and a lot of water. If you

go on any field trips pack water, paper towels,

wipes, snacks, first aid kit, extra clothes, sun

glasses, umbrellas, and whistles. These are some

of the many things we take with us the whistles

are to help get the children’s attention, you will

need cups or sippie cups, an ice chest with ice,

hats and emergency cards.

We still need some members to help with our Committee’s

so if you have a specialty for something

let us know.

Congratulations Shelia Caceres on her new Baby!

We are awaiting the size and date?

There are many things to do with the children for

the summer. Water play ideas are: water balloons,

bubbles, water in buckets, cleaning dishes,

and toys, carrying water in buckets, carrying water

in bowls on their heads for relay races. Sand

play is fun with water added. Scavenger hunts,

relay races, Mother may I, red light green light,

duck, duck goose, four corners, freeze, camouflage,

and the list goes on. If you have ideas send

them to the fccpinc@yahoo.com and I can send

them out to the rest of the members.

Please feel free to send any items to that email

for the September newsletter or ideas.

Thanks for everyone voting on Measure 1D and

the other Measures. Thank you to Rosie Kennedy

for all her Union Support in helping Family

Childcare Providers. I don’t know if any of you

saw the article in the Sacramento Bee, that is not

how my interview went. But at least we were involved

in the process of helping with the Measures.

Great Job to all the others who helped in

this effort. Page 5 of this issue has Rosie’s remarks.

If you would like to be a member of the Union

that supports our cause let me know and I will

put you in touch with Rosie Kennedy.

We are working on getting a new phone number

for FCCP we hope to have it soon. The new number

will post on our FCCP website as soon as we

get it. We will be making all new Brochures and

Business cards with the new phone and PO Box

numbers so look for these and share them with

others.

Sincerely,
