Question/Instruction: What is the mission of the Lincoln County Community Health Council, and how is it largely funded?

Given material: Equipment aimed at giving the public a chance to exercise around the clock was installed this week behind Ruidoso Village Hall near The Links walking path, a joint project of the village Parks and Recreation Department and the Lincoln County Community Health Council.
"We put together a community-wide comprehensive health and fitness plan and as part of that ,we were able to get a grant from Presbyterian Healthcare Services," Dominique M. Taylor, vice chairman of the health council and a local chiropractor, said Tuesday.
A portion of the money went toward the cost of a combined vision of the Village and council to help the community have access to fitness equipment around the clock, she said.
"Our main focus of the health council is to make sure all of the community has access to things to help them with health and wellness, and you can't always do that with a membership in fitness centers," Taylor said. "So we have the trail systems and exercise equipment available all times."
Ruidoso Parks and Recreation Director Rodney Griego said he had a friend on the council and when the group inquired in 2018 about possible health initiative projects that fit the grant criteria, everyone brainstormed and came up with the concept of an exercise station.
Griego gathered information on equipment, submitted the proposal and the council approved the funding of $7,000, he said. The village provided some matching dollars along with handling site preparation and the installation.
"There are two pieces there now," he said. "This model of equipment uses your weight for resistance. Anyone can use it, no age restrictions. Your body type determines the resistance.(The equipment) also is less maintenance intensive, because there are no bands and pulleys and other parts, and the cost is a little lower, because there are not as many moving parts."
One piece of equipment is a leg press and the other is a butterfly machine for arm exercise.
Taylor said the council would like to see more equipment installed at the station.
"There probably are six pieces total we plan to install there," she said. "We're not sure of the completion date. The village is supposed to help match for some of the equipment, and if we can continue to give to them through the grant, we will."
Griego said, "Ultimately, when you set up a station, they recommend several pieces together. They are pretty costly. Hopefully, this is just a step and we can secure future grants and add. We selected that site, because there is room for expansion.
"We looked for a location that take the expansion and close to restrooms accessible to public. We get a lot of use on the Links trail. I think it is a great location."
The community health council is independent, but delivers a report annually to the Lincoln County Commission. Representatives from different medical and health-related disciplines throughout the county serve on the board. The council is largely self-funded through different grants.
"Our mission is to collaborate with service providers and community members to promote cooperation and networking among agencies providing community health related services within Lincoln County," she said.
"We were excited about the project," Griego said. "We've looked at those types of systems over the years, but due to the cost, it is prohibitive. But when grant opportunities come up with partnerships within the community, we jump at it. Otherwise, it would be impossible."
