Nov. 6 @ 7 PM - Foot-tapping music at the Library.

Capitan Public Library presents for the 1st Friday Event of November the music of "The Hopefuls".   The music begins at 7 PM on Friday, Nov. 6.

Come join us for some good 'ole foot-tapping music by local musicians:
 Roland Burnett, Dale Boren, Roy Black, Randy Jones, Corinna Ripple & Chuck George. 
These musicians strum and sing some mighty fine Western, gospel and old-time music for our listening pleasure.  
Plus, nothing like a good rhyming cowboy to put a smile on your face, so get ready to enjoy poetic compositions by cowboy poet, Chuck George.

Refreshments afterwards.

More on Flu Shots - if you are interested in getting one this year

Presbyterian Medical Group will provide free flu shots to those 18 and older at three locations in Ruidoso, Carrizozo and Capitan until the vaccine is gone.

The opportunities for immunization are:

·         from  1:30 to 3:30 pm on Friday, October 23, at the Carrizozo Health Center, 710 Avenue E,  in Carrizozo; and

·         from 10 am to noon at the Capitan Medical Clinic, 405 Lincoln Way, in Capitan.

The 2015-2016 flu vaccine will protect against four strains of seasonal flu, the Influenza A H3N2-type virus, the Influenza A H1N1-type virus and two Influenza B-type viruses.

For their safety, children cannot receive flu shots through these clinics. Contact your child's primary care provider to receive a properly dosed flu shot.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that everyone six months and older receive the flu vaccine.

The Lincoln County Medical Center is a county-owned facility that has been managed by Presbyterian Healthcare Services since 1972.  Lincoln County Medical Center and Presbyterian Healthcare Services operate a hospital, a primary care and specialty clinic, three rural clinics and a countywide ambulance service in the county. Lincoln County Medical Center is one of eight hospitals run by Presbyterian, which also has a statewide health plan and a growing multi-specialty medical group.
