Today, Meals on Wheels serves 400 meals a day at dining sites throughout the county. Anyone older than 60 is welcome to dine at the sites, which also offer exercise and painting classes, bingo, arts and crafts and dances with live music. In addition, the organization delivers 525 meals daily to homebound seniors and 150 frozen weekend dinners to those most in need.
All meals are free with a suggested donation.
Gayle Ortiz , vice mayor of Capitola, calmed the worries of frequenters of the Capitola dining site at Jade Street Community Center, who fear a possible closure of the hall. Turns out the hall is located on property owned by the school board, which is negotiating with Capitola for money and land in exchange for the property. And yes, we did wash down the whole delicious mix with sparking apple juice served up in a plastic champagne glass. And with it raining cats and dogs, all that goat poop is gonna be more difficult to ignore. Miles of fences, which prevent wildlife passage, also remain, along with barns and sheds that were built without permits.
