Yes, There Is a Need in Calaveras County. Habitat for Humanity Update from by Myron Kelso |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 11/21/2013 06:32 PM

A crowded household is identified as more than one person per room of the house (counting all rooms except the bathroom). Would you be willing to share one bedroom with 3, 4, 5 or more persons?

Bear Valley, CA..The 10th Annual Wintersports History Night is Decemeber 14 at the Bear Valley Lodge, Cathedral Lounge. The honoree this year is Harry Schimke who for many in the area needs no introduction and without Harry and the entire Schimke Family our area would not be the same. The Ebbetts Pass Historical Association was established in the summer of 2003, by a handful of Bear Valley residents, following many discussions of earnest that we should start something to preserve history of our area and make it available to the public. Our goal at the beginning was not only to capture memories of the High Sierra -Hwy 4, but also to gather and preserve the history along the Hwy 4 corridor from Arnold up to the summit...
