Arroyo Golf Club Partners with the U.S. Census Bureau to Support the 2010 Census

Arroyo Golf Club is partnering with the U.S. Census Bureau to help spread the word about the 2010 Census and achieve a complete and accurate count of the U.S. population.

The census defines who we are as a nation. Every year, the federal government distributes more than $400 billion to state, local and tribal governments based on census data. Accurate census data help determine congressional representation, grant funding and guide local decision-makers on where to build new roads, hospitals, housing, schools and more.

Our organization strives to improve the lives and welfare of people in our community, many of whom are experiencing hardships related to economic status, language fluency, disabilities or more. We are committed to supporting the 2010 Census as another way to improve the quality of life in our community, and to ensure that even the hardest to count can be accurately represented.

In the coming months, we will update you about important census-related news or events. We also will share information about key 2010 Census operations, including:

· February – March 2010: Census forms are mailed or delivered to households

· March – April 2010: Be Counted Program is implemented, whereby census forms are available at select public sites for individuals who did not receive one by mail

· April 1, 2010: Census Day

· May – July 2010: Census workers will visit households that do not return forms to take a count in person.

· Dec. 31, 2010: Census Bureau delivers population count to the President

· March 2011: Census Bureau completes delivery of redistricting data to states
