Angels Camp, CA...Some people start saving for retirement at 20, 25, or 30.

San Andreas, CA...One of the first items on the agenda at yesterday's Supervisor Meeting was to approve the resolution to approve the San Andreas Recreation and Park District request to rename the San Andreas Community Park to Alex "JR" Quinones Community Ball Park. This was done to honor his memory and his decades community efforts. On February 24, 2013 the Board of the San Andreas Recreation and Park District voted unanimously to request that the Board of Supervisors of Calaveras County rename the San Andreas Community Park to the Alex "JR" Quinones Community Ball Park. This is the first time that the Board of Supervisors had been asked to rename a County owned facility. As there was no existing policy regarding renaming or naming in memorial a County facility the now Alex "JR" Quinones Community Ball Park broke new ground on the policy front as well....

Are You One of "These" People? We Sure Hope So! |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 11/26/2013 05:01 PM

| Arnold, CA...Did you ask your parents “Why” so much they threatened you and you still asked anyway? Is “What Happened” a question you can always answer? Do you post so many news links on your Facebook timeline your friends would rather see a picture of your food? Has “Having to Know” chased friends away? Is “That's All There Is?” something you say after reading/watching/browsing every news outlet you can find? Have you actually cried watching the news when something horrific has happened in the world? Do you think news should be news and not left or right? Do you see every story through the lens of how will this affect your community and neighborhood? If most of the questions above felt too close to home then we need to talk, we need you and we are here to help!! |
