Amador County – First Five of Amador County announced in October that it has finally moved into its new location in the Margaret Dalton Children’s Center. ¶ Last week, after weeks of unpacking and rearranging, the Center opened for the annual First Five Children’s Festival for Christmas.

First Five calls home to the new Margaret Dalton Children’s Center, along with the Amador Child Abuse Prevention Council and the Amador Cooperative Preschool. Nina Machado, Executive Director of First Five Amador said the three organizations plan a grand opening, open house and dedication later in the year for the new facility, after they get all settled in.

Last Friday, Dec. 13, was a preview of the new facility, a former chapel, which was filled with children and parents, doing crafts, visiting Santa Claus and tasting snacks from stations based on countries of the world.

First Five Amador’s new address is 975 Broadway in Jackson, next door to the CHP office. Their phone number, fax number and emails remain the same.
