Bear Valley, CA...Ski Racing is alive and well in the Central Sierra, Young Ski Racers from China Peak, Badger Pass, Dodge Ridge and Bear Valley made run after run through the gates on the Bear Valley Course. Bear Valley and BVSEF the Bear Valley Snowsports Education Foundation hold this race the first part of January every year.

In the crisp and cold conditions the skiers had perfect snow for consistent and speedy runs. Enjoy the photos below taken by Mark Silverstone and his staff at West World Images.
Angels Camp, CA...The winter months bring cold weather, shorter days, and treacherous driving and walking conditions, which can lead to increased risk of falling on slippery or uneven surfaces.

Calaveras County and Beyond...Kindness Week is February 11-17, 2013! The idea is simple: When we make a conscious effort to perform a kind act, ripples of kindness flow forth. The grassroots effort to promote random acts of kindness firmly took hold in 1995 when the Angels Camp City Council issued a proclamation and The City of Angels became the first designated "Kindness Zone" in the United States. Since then, the ripples of kindness have continued to spread and now wash over all Calaveras County Schools in a celebration of kindness each February. For project information, please visit www.theseedsofkindness.com To learn more about random acts of kindness activities visit the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation website at www.actsofkindness.org....
