Vancouver Seafarers Center.\u00a0 The group collected 248 mugs which they delivered to the center today.\u00a0 The mugs are used in holiday gift bags that volunteers at the Seafarers Center put together for every visiting seafarer between Thanksgiving and Christmas.\u00a0 Each bag contains a mug, hard candies, a razor, toothbrush, playing cards, a warm hat and some socks.\u00a0 Puzzles are also collected and given to each ship so the crew has an activity while at sea.\u00a0 The seafarers tell us they are very grateful for the gift bags and kindness shown to them during their visit to Vancouver. These items are much appreciated during holiday time when the men and women are away from home.\u201d<\/h3>\n<div id=\"animated-thumbnails-4379\" class=\"row all-images-4379\" style=\"position: relative; height: 109.167px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1048-scaled.jpg\" class=\"single-image-4379 col-lg-2 col-md-3 col-sm-4 col-xs-6\" data-sub-html=\"&lt;h4 class=pg-title&gt;Seafarers Center&lt;\/h4&gt;\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px;\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumbnail \" src=\"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1048-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Seafarers Center\" \/> <\/a><\/div>\n<h3 dir=\"auto\"><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_3 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3><strong>Food Bank<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3>The Men\u2019s Group volunteers with the Food Bank of Clark County every Thursday at 11 a.m.\u00a0 Check the activities tab for contact information.<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_4 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3><strong>Cultural events<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3>Check through the cultural activities each month in our listings to see what kinds of things you can do that focus on theater, music, art, and more.<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_5 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3><strong>Community resources<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3>Use the community links page to find other websites that might be of practical help to you as your questions or needs arise.<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":6,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-86","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/86","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/86\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6991,"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/86\/revisions\/6991"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarkcountynewcomers.com\/stage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
