Cariño to Zach Hernandez, Athletics Facility Manager. On the morning of Thursday, October 10th, Zach observed a very young child walking down the street by himself. With no visible supervision in the area, Zach asked the young boy where his parents or grandparents were. He immediately recognized that the child may have wandered away from a nearby elementary school. Zach guided the young boy to Meerscheidt Recreation Center where he ensured this student would be kept safe and calm until school authorities and LCPD arrived. The Parks & Recreation Department would like to recognize Zach Hernandez for being a true example of Cariño.
