TrueCare will host its annual Flourish & Nourish Health Fair and Breast Milk Drive on Saturday, August 9, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the new TrueCare Vista Way Health Campus (3998 Vista Way, Oceanside, CA). This free, family-friendly event celebrates community wellness with a special focus on maternal and children's health. The day will include a variety of exciting activities and supportive services for the whole family. Highlights include a food distribution, a backpack giveaway to help children prepare for the upcoming school year, music from a live DJ, a blood drive in support of the San Diego Blood Bank, free dental screenings with fluoride varnish, and general health screenings. Guests will have the opportunity to tour TrueCare’s new primary care and dental offices, and children can enjoy interactive activities in the “Kid’s Zone” designed to make wellness fun. “Rooted in our mission to provide care within reach, Flourish & Nourish is more than just a health fair,” said Briana Cardoza, Chief Business Development Officer at TrueCare. “This event is thoughtfully designed to break down barriers and bring essential services and resources directly to the community in a welcoming environment where families can feel seen, supported, and celebrated.” In partnership with the University of California Health Milk Bank, the event features a breast milk drive to help ensure medically fragile and premature infants have access to the nourishment they need. Donor breast milk plays a critical role in protecting vulnerable newborns from life-threatening conditions such as Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC). When a mother’s milk is not available or insufficient, pasteurized donor milk is the safest and most effective alternative to support infant survival and development.

Puppetry is one of the oldest and most accessible art forms, and is used all over the world to tell stories both beautiful and strange. Our workshop will explore three diverse styles of puppetry: shadow, found object, and rod. Students will learn about each of these styles, have the opportunity to explore and animate, and be provided with materials to create a basic puppet in one style of their choosing to use in a short, devised solo or small group performance. Instructor Bio: Molly is a multi-disciplinary performer, artist, and educator who loves experimenting with puppetry in theatre and film. She is an alumna of the University of San Diego and MCIAT where she completed the 2-year comprehensive training program. She has studied puppet design, fabrication and performance with Andrew Kim, Twisted Heart Puppetworks, Animal Cracker Conspiracy, Mindy Donner, Lynne Jennings, Joyce Hutter and A Tarumba, and has performed with Basil Twist and Little Amal. Her personal style of visual storytelling is heavily influenced by fairytales, nature, and the dark, whimsical, weird fantasy projects of the 1980s. To learn more, visit mollymaslak.com.
