FALL EVENTS SCHEDULE:

Lazy days at the lake have given way to busy school days and cooler nights—September is upon us. Our calendars are bursting at the seams this month, and we can’t wait to enjoy some of the imaginative events that our friends in the community have put together for our entertainment. If you enjoy the television shows that challenge celebrity chefs to make something delicious from a handful of random ingredients, you’ll love the chef at the Market cookoff competition. Three local chefs will square off at the redding Farmers Market to see who can make the most magic out of three surprise ingredients and whatever else they can find at the farmers market. What fun! Schoolchildren will benefit once again when a splash of rubber ducks hits the water beneath the Diestelhorst Bridge. The Ducky Derby has raised more than $4 million for youth over the years. We’ll tell you more about its history. September wraps up with the always-thrilling redding Air Show, starring the canadian Forces Snowbirds demonstration team. Their high-flying aerobatics deliver an annual highlight for us, and the vendors and exhibits all celebrate the history of flight. Love beer, beef or both? Join the Tehama county cattleWomen for Beef ‘N Brew, where you can stop in and visit downtown businesses for beef appetizers and craft brews, followed by a concert at cone and Kimball Plaza. The best part? Proceeds help a variety of worthy youth projects. Happy autumn!

laura Dahl’s love of mountains blossomed early in her native Montana and continued to grow during the training that ultimately established her as an internationally renowned pianist and a member of the Stanford University faculty. She would frequently yield to that alpine attraction by making fly-fishing trips to the Mount Shasta area with her husband, fellow Stanford professor Kenneth Goodson, before the couple started a family. “I always thought it would be wonderful to get some property up there, and it finally happened,” Dahl says by phone from her home on the San Francisco Bay peninsula. She describes their North State home as a “nice antidote” to the frantic Bay Area lifestyle. “I came up here about 10 years ago and was asking around about classical music and found that there was a dearth of classical music performances. I thought, ‘Good—I’ll start a festival.’” Dahl then approached her colleague, Sally Porter Munro, a mezzo-soprano in the San Francisco Opera

chorus, and asked if she would like to venture north and perform. “I said I’ll play piano and we’ll see if we can find some interest.” A concert was arranged in the Kenneth Ford Theatre on the college of the Siskiyous campus in Weed in September 2004 and the two performed for a small but appreciative audience. “We hadn’t done sufficient advertising,” Dahl recalls. “When people heard about it, they said they wished they had gone, so we repeated it that November in Mount Shasta.” The Music by the Mountain Festival had arrived. The duo met with Mount Shasta philanthropists Joe and Michael Wirth, who invited other community members to listen to their plans for the young festival. Growing excitement over the festival idea led to a fundraising concert in the Wirths’ home, featuring San Francisco cellist Emil Miland. “It was really successful,” Dahl says. “The money raised gave us the stability to launch the festival and make it a multi-day event.”4continued on page 14

From its inception, Dahl and Munro have worked to make the festival an educational opportunity. “A big component is not just to bring high-quality musical performances to Siskiyou county, but to bring them into the schools,” Dahl says. “Educational outreach to students is in our mission statement.” connie Marmet, the festival board’s president, says the organization is committed to supporting music programs in schools, and particularly in those schools where programs have fallen victim to budget cuts. With grant support from the california Arts council and the Shasta community regional Foundation, Marmet says the festival board has been able to underwrite the production of musicals at elementary schools in Dunsmuir and Weed, present classical music concerts and secure music education materials. “Last semester, in Dunsmuir and Weed, they restored at least part-time music teachers. We feel like we primed the pump,” Marmet said. The festival board is currently working on an inventory of “who teaches what and where” to help connect residents in the far-flung corners of Siskiyou county with music education resources. “We all love music and love to bring great performers here and enjoy it, and many of us got so much enjoyment

and basic training from programs in schools,” Marmet says, while today, many children are denied that exposure to music unless their parents can afford private lessons. The 10th Music by the Mountain Festival begins Sept. 6 with a benefit gala reception for this year’s featured performer, baritone Stephen Salters. The festival continues at 4 pm Sept. 7 at the Seventh-day Adventist church in Mount Shasta. Also performing will be college of the Siskiyous piano instructor chiharu Sai and the duo of caya Layman on violin and Patrick Stewart on piano. Salters, described by the New York Times as “a man of thorough confidence, huge charm, and a vocal allure that come brimming off the stage … an ability to communicate gentleness and power with the same immediacy,” will also give a masters class on voice for the cOS Music Department and area high schools. •

over coffee one morning at a bed and breakfast in Fort Bragg, Tony and Linda Kilcollins decided they wanted to run a business of their own. Ideally, it would supplement their retirement income and be something they’d truly enjoy doing. “We love meeting new people, cooking together and entertaining. running a B&B seemed like the most logical choice,” Tony remembers. When they first toured the 1890s victorian in redding that would eventually become their home, it was love at first sight. With its 12-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, original glass door knobs, clawfoot tub, woodwork, baseboards, dumbwaiter and elegant chandeliers, they knew their dream was about to be realized. The charm and character were more than they could have hoped for; it was perfect. To prepare for their new venture, the couple took classes at the culinary Institute of America in St. Helena and met with B&B owners up and down the coast. Seasoned travelers themselves, Tony and Linda have always preferred to stay in a B&B over a large chain hotel. They enjoy the personal attention and homey feeling and wanted to offer those pleasures to their guests, as well. Old Thyme offers two guest rooms, each complete with a working skeleton key for the door. “Dragonfly” has an adjacent bathroom, and “Lavender and Lace” boasts an en suite bathroom complete with clawfoot tub. The bathrooms also offer soaps made by clear creek Soap company. A recent guest from chicago raved about her stay:“We chose Old Thyme based on its location to downtown. We found the old victorian to be very charming. The bed was very4 continued on page 18

Jennifer Highet is a north state native and an avid crafter. a graduate of chico state university, she has enjoyed working for a successful internet start-up as well as thriving in large corporate environments, but always seems to come back to her creative roots, writing and developing up-cycled décor for her 1950s home.

comfy, innkeepers very friendly and the food was amazing!” Speaking of food, breakfast is part of the B&B experience, and the Kilcollinses offer a wide variety of specialty items. “You won’t find a packaged Danish at this location,” Linda says . How does Eggs Benedict Strata sound? French toast roll-ups? Praline french toast? Bacon and egg tart? Prosciutto and gruyere croissants? Or how about Grandma’s old fashioned gravy over biscuits? The couple buy locally whenever possible. Mustard (which might be a secret ingredient in their Eggs Benedict Strata) comes from Wilda’s Grill. Granola is provided by From the Harvest, and date night wines are courtesy of Moseley Family cellars. The Kilcollinses want guests to have a warm and inviting experience. After breakfast, one could relax on the porch with a good book, check email with the available wi-fi or sip a cup of java from the complimentary coffee bar. Others stroll through the garden specially built for B&B guests. An enchanting purple door (originally from the kitchen) now serves as a garden gate. Sit at the bistro table and enjoy the water feature and patio, built using brick that was found under the house and appears to be original to the era. Tony and Linda are their guests' personal concierges, able to offer suggestions, directions and make reservations. While they don’t serve lunch or dinner, the B&B’s proximity to downtown redding provides access to many eateries nearby. And when returning from a day of exploration, guests will find a nighttime snack of cookies and milk, one of the many things that make a stay with Old Thyme unique. “We are incredibly blessed to have the opportunity to share our 1890s home with the community,” says Tony. Linda agrees. “This venture, which was once a dream, has become a reality.” • old thyme bed and breakfast • 2067 placer st., reddingwww.oldthymebedandbreakfast.comwww.facebook.com/oldthymebnb

Working closely with representatives from redding Municipal Airport, fire, police and public works departments, the Exchange club and volunteers have earned redding city Manager Kurt Starman’s respect. “They do a fantastic job,” he says. He also lauds the event for its boost to tourism and the local economy, as well as the partnership with so many non-profit organizations that help others. North State residents and visitors have enjoyed the jet demonstration teams for 19 of the past 21 redding Air Shows. This is a record unmatched among civilian air shows the size of redding’s around the country, says Bill Wagner, 2014 air show chairman. According to Wagner and David McGeorge, a former air show chairman and active Exchange club member and volunteer, redding has succeeded in attracting the jet

teams because of the open-arms hospitality the community provides. The pilots and their teams often enjoy their off time recreating on local lakes and rivers. Says McGeorge, “They love to come to redding.” With a variety of “giving back” activities filling its

annual calendar, the Exchange club of redding’s only fundraising event is the nationally recognized air show. Over the years, it has developed a finely tuned operation, reports Wagner. An average of

28,000 to 30,000 visitors pass through the gates during the two days. It takes up to 1,000 volunteers from a wide range of nonprofit organizations, many sponsors and support from local government officials to make the air show such a resounding success. Every nonprofit organization that contributes time and services also shares in the proceeds from the event. According to Wagner,4 continued on page 24

A real life mechanical hero will be on display at his year’s redding Air Show. The Beechcraft T-348, registration number N157 Zulu, was transferred from its original service as a military pilot training aircraft beginning in the 1950s to U.S. Forest Service duty. It served as the lead Forest Service plane stationed at redding Municipal Airport from 1960-1975. It then was moved to March Air Force Base in Southern california, where is has been used for a variety of purposes. Steve Frost grew up with flying in his blood. His father, U.S. Forest Service pilot William Frost, took him for his first flight in a Forest Service plane when he was just 8 years old. Steve retired in 2010 from a career as a fire captain with cal Fire in San Diego. He then trained in4 continued on page 26

high performance and complex aircraft at March Air Force reserve Base just so he could one day fly a plane like his dad flew, the Beechcraft T-348. To his surprise, he actually trained in the very same plane that his father had flown from its base in redding. Now a redding resident again with a nostalgic attachment to one particular plane that he considers “a truly exceptional aircraft with a heroic past,” Frost has arranged to fly the Beechcraft from Southern california to redding just in time for the redding Air Show. It will be on static display with its long and honorable pictorial history. Among its notable service duties, the Beechcraft has been used to make tribute flights for funerals and memorial services for fallen soldiers. Frost describes the plane as “a truly unique aircraft that has had a service of distinction to our nation, not only as a military training aircraft for hundreds of military pilots, but also as a 15-year Forest Service lead plane fighting forest fires in Northern california.” Like a hero returning home, the 157Z will be on loan during the redding Air Show. Frost has undertaken the project of returning the aircraft to its old home with the help of local supporters. •


The redding Air show touts many loyal and long-time sponsors. North State super fans Al and Pat Naticchioni are among them. Ever since they moved to redding in the mid-1970s, they have been making professional and personal connections that have propelled them into giving back to individuals in need and worthy causes and organizations. Together, they have enjoyed building a construction business, and in 1991 launched their real estate business, rE/MAX of redding. During their long career, they have found many opportunities to give back to the community to which these world travelers love to return home. The air show offers them a perfect opportunity to support their favorite causes while showing their appreciation to others in the community. Al spent four years in the U.S. coast Guard, serving both on the east and west coasts in search and rescue aviation. It is no surprise that he passionately honors others who serve and have served in the military, especially those with distinction. The Military Order of the Purple Heart has honored Al for his contributions. The Naticchionis have also supported and honored local law enforcement. They both love to donate to causes that promote the North State. The couple work tirelessly to plan for the redding Air Show. They sponsor two pavilions on the front line

where they host and feed as many as 600 guests all day long on both days of the event. It is a way, they say, to thank coworkers, clients, friends and members of their favorite charities. They never rest on their past success. At age 68, Al became the first to enroll in realtor University’s inaugural class. He is working to earn his master’s degree in real estate. Even during the recession they found ways to use their business expertise to help struggling homeowners. They helped many families during the five-year market crisis as certified Depressed Property Experts. They say working with people is their life. •

2. DRIVING - If your loved one drives, is there reason to believe they pose an above average risk for being involved in an accident? How are their reflexes, vision and ability to respond in an unexpected situation? Are they likely to get lost and panic?

3. FOOD/NUTRITION – Is your loved one eating balanced meals? Is their weight stable? Are they able to prepare meals? Are they able to manage grocery shopping? Do they have a reasonable variety of food in the refrigerator (with future expiration dates)?

4. HYGIENE - How does your loved one look and smell including their breath? Does it appear they are bathing regularly? How are their overall appearance, grooming and ability to match clothing compared to prior years? Do their bed linens and bath towels appear clean? Are they able to manage the laundry?

5. BEHAVIOR – Does your loved one seem anxious or irritable? Does being away from home make them uncomfortable? Do they seem depressed? Are they inconsistent in the things they say? Does your loved one remember names, places and current events?

6. MEDICATION - Can your loved one manage their medications properly including dosage, frequency and changes to prescriptions? Do they understand why they are taking the medications? Are prescriptions getting refilled in a timely fashion?

7. FINANCES – Does it appear that your loved one is capable of making sound financial decisions? Are they able to manage their personal finances? Are bills being paid in a timely fashion? Do they have a reasonable amount of cash on hand?

8. MAIL - Is the mail stacking up? Do you see any past due or delinquency notices? Does your loved one appear to be a target for solicitation offers?

8 Caregiving ConsiderationsMake Life Easier!

a Big Basket of canvas flying Discs hangs from the front porch overhang of Bill and Julie Divens' Gold Beach, Ore. house. It gets shuttled between their homes there and in red Bluff, where they run Salmon King fishing expeditions at peak times in each locale. The discs are for Lola, their cardigan Welsh corgi, who has a seemingly endless capacity for chasing and retrieving them. Back and forth, back and forth. Over and over. The basket gets filled to capacity not because she’s hard on them with her teeth. Let’s just say she produces a lot of saliva in her exuberance for the game. If you’re going to settle in for a game with Lola, you’re going to need more than one disc to keep up your own enthusiasm. There’s something quite remarkable about watching a corgi so joyfully chase a flying disc. Their long bodies attached to tiny little legs just don’t seem built for the game. But they play like they have no idea. To see Lola catch a disc in air is to watch her defy logic. And gravity. While Lola is a sight to behold when she’s running after discs, it’s not the most remarkable thing about her. Little Lola, often referred to as “our girl” or “our daughter” by Bill and Julie, is the mother to riverside Telltail coco Posh, a darling of the dog show circuit who took that world by surprise last year when she won best of breed at the Westminster Kennel club show at Madison Square Garden.

She came back to do it again this year, but also took home best of herding group, which had her competing with other breeds. These were breeds that you’d actually think of as herders. Which is to say, breeds with much longer legs. coco also belongs to Bill and Julie, but it wasn’t the expectation when she was born that she’d see the results that she has. “She comes from extremely good bloodlines, so we are very proud,” says Julie. But she wasn’t exactly the pick of the litter. As Julie describes it, first prefacing everything with, “Have you seen Best in Show (the mockumentary comedy by christopher Guest about the dog show world)? It’s all true!”, there’s a “coven” of dog show people who determine what dogs will breed to each other and who will end up owning which offspring. coco went to Bill and Julie because they just wanted a dog to play Frisbee with and weren’t at all interested in showing. Julie’s sister is Deb Schindle of riverside Kennels in vero Beach, Fla. She’s at the top of her game in the corgi world, and Bill and Julie had often taken on her retired show dogs as pets. Lola, and by extension coco, came to them through Deb. If Deb’s world revolves around dogs, Bill and Julie’s revolves

around salmon. Bill ended up taking coco to puppy training school in Anderson a little early in her development so he could

get it done before he got too busy with fishing season. She would do the exercises, he says, but immediately fall asleep at

his feet when she finished each, needing all the energy she could muster in that early stage of life.4 continued on page 30

As she grew, however, she started to develop traits that dog show people would describe as “exquisite” and “refined.” Julie was encouraged to show her at Napa despite the fact that “I don’t have the skin for it.” She also didn’t have the skills for it. Taking her lessons from Best In Show, she unwittingly showed coco as one would a toy breed, completely inappropriate for a herding breed. As she describes the chatter that went around the show grounds, coco won despite Julie. She’s just that exquisite a dog. From that show in Napa, word got back to Julie that she “owed it to the breed” to put coco on the show circuit. A wealthy investor from the publishing world stepped in with the financing for a handler, and coco was ushered into a world of chiropractic care, massages, and air-conditioned rides in a Mercedes trailer van. She and Lois, her handler, are on the road more than 300 days a year, sometimes showing at multiple shows in a single weekend. Bill and Julie receive boxes of blue ribbons, including many Best in Shows, every so often. They are so big and gaudy and numerous that they really don’t know what to do with them all. “As far as prestige, winning at Westminster is like winning Miss Universe. You’re already well past Miss America,” says Julie. It’s all very heady and fun, but Julie adds, “She’s the darling of the show world but we don’t have her. She’s been on the road being shown for us for as long as we’ve had her. She left when she was three and she’s 6 now.” Bill and Julie won’t be upset when coco’s winning streak comes to an end. They’re ready for the day when they can come in from a long day fishing, sit on the porch with a cocktail and throw flying discs to Lola and coco together. Back and forth. Over and over. •

known throughout the worlD of rock music as the flute and voice behind the legendary Jethro Tull band, Ian Anderson is celebrating his 46th year as an international recording and performing artist. Anderson and Jethro Tull have released 30 studio and live albums, selling more than 60 million copies since the band first performed in February 1968 at London’s famous Marquee club. As leader of Jethro Tull, he has long resented the name given to the band. “If you’d asked me 20 years ago did I regret anything about my musical career, my answer then, as it is today, has always been the name of the band,” Anderson says.4 continued on page 34

“Back then, in 1968, we had many different names which usually changed every week, since we were so bad that we had to pretend to be some new band in order to get re-booked in the clubs where we aspired to find fame and fortune. Our agent, who had studied history at college, came up with the name Jethro Tull (an 18th century English agricultural pioneer who invented the seed drill). That was the band name during the week in which London’s famous Marquee club offered us the Thursday night residency. So it stuck. And I’ve had to live with it all of these years.” He has lately called for an end to the legendary band, announcing that he intends, from here on out, to record and tour exclusively under his own name. “There will be a Jethro Tull album released later this year or early next year, but it’s an album of music of classic Jethro Tull repertoire played by five people, but not five Jethro Tull members,” Anderson says. “It’s a string quartet and me. So there we have the way in which Jethro Tull continues to live to this day, but it is with existing material, which is being released under the Jethro Tull band. I think it’s safe to say that any new material that I write from here until my doomsday is probably going to be released under my own name. “Jethro Tull is a body of work I rather think is now kind of historical, since the weight of it lies back in the ’70s and ’80s, in terms of volume. And I rather think it’s nice to kind of leave that as legacy.” Anderson hasn’t played with the original members of Jethro Tull in many years, but his current touring band consists of long-time members of the group. “The loyalty of our fans keeps us in work and pocket money. Some artists have fickle fans who have short attention spans. More loyal and committed fans ensure that the work of some bands like Zeppelin, The Grateful Dead, Hendrix and the Stones won’t fade away. Tull is just a lesser version of those rock giants whose music will go on to define that period of music in the history books of the future.”

He has recorded six diverse albums under his own name during his long career. His latest solo album, “Homo Erraticus,” is a concept album covering the musical history of Britain, featuring songs which examine key events from throughout British history in a musical suite style, divided into three sections: “chronicles,” “Prophecies” and “revelations.” Anderson plans to play the new album in its entirety during this tour, with a second half that will include “a selection of the best of Jethro Tull’s sort of classic songs.” He’ll also be digging deep for three songs that Anderson says “are quite well-known pieces by Jethro Tull” that have been rarely played live but are going to be part of this year’s set. “Some of our audience obviously like the nostalgia bit, and the older material which we play is, for them perhaps, a trip down memory lane,” Anderson says. “For us, it’s not about playing a song which could be 30 years old. It’s about playing something 24 hours old, since that’s when we probably last played it on stage. Our style of music is, I hope, a little bit timeless and not rooted in a particular music fashion.” Now one of the old men of rock, Anderson plans to go on performing and recording, “One year, 10 years, who knows?” he says. “As long as it remains a challenge and my health permits. Then there is my painting, writing and other creative indulgences to consider. Which will go first: the eyes, ears or the hands? Fear of boredom in old age is my greatest concern.” •

Serving The Community


attention, francoPhiles! Next month, Pilgrim congregational church once again will open its doors on redding’s very own French quarter when it hosts its fourth annual French country Market.

valerie Scarisbrick, new to the church in 2010, wanted to create an event that would not only bring church members together but would welcome the larger community to festivities benefiting local nonprofit organizations.

“There are so many fundraising events,” says Scarisbrick. “I wanted to create something new that had not been done before in redding, an event promoting fellowship, ‘fun’(d)raising, and a positive, vibrant presence in the community.”

A creative “doer,” Scarisbrick, who hails from England, thought back to the familiar markets she had known at home and in Europe. With all-things-French gaining popularity in America, she says the two ideas solidified into that of a French-themed country market.

With proposal in hand and assistance from other church members, Scarisbrick put together the inaugural market in less than three months. “As more people found out about it, they became interested,” she says. “I got to know the folks at church, what their talents were, and how we could best utilize them so it would be really fun.”

Maria Angwin heard the “market buzz” around the church and offered to make jewelry. “I bead for relaxation and pleasure and knew this was something I could do,” says Angwin, who oversees the La Bijouterie jewelry shop stall, including the design of all displays and jewelry packaging. “We’re all working toward the same goal—that of helping others—and that is really nice.”

In addition to La Bijouterie, visitors can browse for gifts at Le Petit Magasin; handmade confectionaries, breads and pastries at La Boulangerie; and fresh flowers, plants and herbs at Le Jardin Aux Fleurs. collectors of vintage items will find treasures aplenty at the collectionnes Millesimes stall.4continued on page 38

Good timEs | by cLaudia mosby

Hungry shoppers can pop into Le Bistro for le dejeuner of soup, bread and dessert while enjoying both traditional French music and modern selections performed by vocalists and musicians on the market stage.

visitors can also try their luck at Le Bonne chance raffle, which features a half-dozen internationally themed baskets as well as a silent auction boasting several prizes, including two tickets to the annual Madrigals dinner hosted by the church.

For the first time, the market will display items made by the children of the church and reusable tote bags created from donated cloth.

Scarisbrick and logistics coordinator Michelle Martin Streeby begin planning each January for the October event. church volunteers assist by making items or assembling them from kits that Scarisbrick has put together with ideas gleaned from Pinterest, French magazines and other sources.

Martin Streeby estimates the five-hour event draws between 400 and 500 attendees a year and raises $5,000 to $7,000 to distribute back to local agencies. “Many visitors

come from the surrounding neighborhood, are friends of church members or are others who have heard about it, fell in love with the event and come back year after year,” she says.

church support of the selected organizations continues year round and Martin Streeby says, “Many of these groups do not just receive a one-time check. We’re involved in food and clothing distribution with several of these organizations and also help with Thanksgiving and christmas baskets.”

Organizers appreciate the support the community has shown for the French country Market fundraiser, says Martin Streeby, who hopes people will come out again this year to enjoy the accordion music, handmade gifts and homemade French soup and baguette.

“You can do some shopping and walk away with a song in your heart knowing that you have helped others,” she says. •

grif BlooDhart was introDuceD to h-o scale model railroading at age 16 by an aerospace engineer and has never looked back. When Grif and his wife, Penny, bought their home in Mount Shasta, it offered a rare feature almost unheard of in this day and age: a huge basement and the opportunity to create a dream-come-true model railroad layout. “I had always built model airplanes and cars,” Grif says. “Model railroading offered the challenge of building a layout—to create a visual scene that looks real.” Nine years later, the basement has been transformed into an extensive model railroad with a 408-square-foot, 24x17-foot layout, workshop and miniature marshalling yard. The layout is not the one you might

remember from christmas that encircled the tree with a single track. The extensive simulation contains 5,000 pieces including 35 cars, seven engines, 45 buildings and terrain that varies from mountains to farmland to town. Sound is also a part of the simulation, with the steam engines huffing their way around the track, tooting their horns and then easing to a slow puffing when pulled into a station. cost for the layout? “More than my wife would like,” Grif says with a laugh. certainly, the engines and the cars form the basis for a layout, but it is in the precision detailing of the scenes that makes such a project a labor of love and the impressive simulation that Grif has created.4 continued on page 42

LocaLs | story and pHotos by pauL boErGEr

“I wanted to create a historically accurate layout from 1935 to 1955,” Grif says. “The theater marquee, the advertisements on the buildings, the vehicles, the figures and the billboards reflect the time periods. There’s rita Hayworth selling royal crown cola on a billboard and Betty Boop selling Boopsy cola on a building.” Grif said a single scene with buildings, both prebuilt and from scratch, can take up to 500 hours to complete, and weathering is a huge part of the process in creating a realistic look. “I use chalk, india ink and alcohol wash. It has a major impact on how realistic it looks,” Grif says. “I dirty things up to make it look like they are muddy. I have broken up the base of a tree to give it the appearance of the roots coming through the sidewalk.” And the figures are not just standing around. They are engaged in activities from fixing vehicles to using an outhouse to sweeping a porch. On an upstairs balcony, for example, two tiny figures are playing a game of checkers. The flag flying over the cemetery flutters due to a tiny fan at the base. Grif has taken on a complex project for the 2015 Sisson Museum railroad exhibition.

“I am recreating the 1914 Mount Shasta railroad station for the Sisson Museum model railroad layout. I have the original blueprints,” Grif says. “It’s very difficult. Nothing is standard and I am hand cutting every piece. There are dozens of pieces.” Model railroading is not just an esoteric hobby pursued by an elite few. The National Model railroad Association’s Directory of World Wide rail Sites lists more than 5,000 links, and it is only a partial listing. Grif says a layout is never completed and most days will find him at his workbench peering through a huge magnifying glass, creating another part of his fascinating historical creation. •

it’s not aBout the Ducks. That’s what Marge Beck says, anyway. Ignore the impressive mass of bright yellow rubber ducks cascading over redding’s Diestelhorst Bridge every September for a moment. Look past enticing prizes such as $5,000 cash, a San Francisco Giants baseball weekend for four and a half-carat diamond pendant. And forget about reaching for your checkbook to appease the adorable kid on your doorstep selling tickets to raise money for camp or a sober grad party or a band trip.

The Ducky Derby is not about those things, says Beck. Known as the Ducky Derby Queen, she’d be the one to know. For 10 years, she’s devoted much of her time to orchestrating the annual fundraising event. This is about outcomes, she says. Twenty-five years ago, community groups pondered options to fund programs that would be a positive influence on local kids. They figured if they could help pay for enticing programs and activities, the kids would be less likely to turn to drugs and alcohol. When they landed on4 continued on page 46

the Ducky Derby fundraising format, they knew they’d found a winner. The community embraced the idea and now, every August and September, many in redding expect to adopt a duck or two from neighbors and nieces. The big duck drop, to be held this year on Sept. 28, is a highly anticipated community event. “We’ve all been touched by substance abuse, whether a family member or a friend,” she says. “That’s why I do this.” The “duck drop” is essentially a rubber duck race. Thousands of rubber ducks marked with encoded numbers that correspond with raffle tickets are dropped into the Sacramento river, where they bob and wobble toward a finish line. The winners are plucked from the water and reunited with the names of the winning benefactors. Over the years, the Ducky Derby morphed into a project funneled through the redding East rotary club and is just shy of lifetime gross receipts of $4 million. “We’d really to break that cap this year,” says Beck who is especially excited about offering 25 prizes marking this year’s silver anniversary derby. What is unique about this fundraiser is its return on the dollar for participating groups. Once event expenses, which run about $25,000, are met, participants get 100 percent of every dollar raised. In 2007, the group distributed $230,000, its highest gift ever. Last year, participants earned $172,000. “I’m so grateful for this community. They are so generous,” says Beck. “It’s a testament that people here value our youth.”

But the event is really about students like rosie McLearn, one of three children raised by a single mother. After years of moving from

state to state, mostly living in a van, her mother was diagnosed with cancer and deemed unable to care for her kids. A ward of foster care, rosie recognized that with her childhood, “there have been many opportunities to have a negative outlook on life and go

down the wrong path.” However, she writes in a letter to the rotary, the funding from Ducky Derby allowed her life experiences

she would have never had, such as a Shasta Lake camping expedition where she pitched a tent and learned about teamwork and exploration. “When kids like me are given these experiences, we are shown positive paths in a life full of negative ones.” Beck’s eyes water as she shares rosie’s story, clearly touched by the impact these plastic ducks make. “I feel like if I can stop one kid from going down that path, it’s worth it.” •

memBers of the shasta community concert Association were not about to let redding’s small-town status prevent it from presenting big-name talent, and the bargain-conscious nonprofit has been getting the biggest performing-arts bang for its buck for 77 years and counting. For the past 14 years, the group has been responsible for another bargain: providing fine-arts enrichment to North State schools, completely free of charge. The concert association, which presents its shows at the cascade Theatre, began bringing students into the mix in 2000, which coincided with the addition of Jane Wittmann and her husband, Will, to the board of directors.

“We made this pledge to bring music to kids in the community and that’s when we started the Fine Arts Enrichment program. We’ve served more than 30,000 kids since we started in 2000,” Jane Wittmann says. “Our board got really involved in it. Originally we didn’t do it for every artist since they didn’t all do outreach, but over the years we started to only hire artists that offer outreach,” Wittmann recalls. “The artists enjoy doing it … they enjoy those morning shows. It seems like to a person, the artists always say what a well behaved audience the kids were.” As retired teachers, Dave and Judy Bush quickly saw the benefits of the Fine Arts Enrichment program and they eagerly assumed responsibility for promoting it to local4 continued on page 50

schools. They’re at their happiest helping to introduce kids from small outposts—Weed, Dunsmuir, Igo, Ono, Platina and others—to live performances by touring artists. For many, it’s their first brush with a live concert and their first look at the historic cascade Theatre. “We just really see such a value,” Dave Bush says of the morning performances for grade-school students. “And the performers are very encouraging to students, telling them to follow their dreams and stick with school.” Judy Bush says it’s a treat to watch the interaction between the students and performers. The artists are good about mixing in conversation with their performances, she says. “They tell the kids about their own music backgrounds, when did they start playing instruments, when did they start singing, when did they first feel comfortable on stage.” It can be just as illuminating for the visiting artist. A good example was provided last year by Jane L. Powell, an old-school powerhouse rhythm and blues singer. “We previewed her and really liked this lady, but she had never done one of the student programs. Well, her husband talked her into it, so she came off the stage and was going around the audience and giving these kids hugs,” Dave Bush recalls. Powell then brought about a dozen kids up on to the stage for an impromptu lesson in jazz improvisation and scat singing, and then used her pint-sized choir as backup singers for her rendition of Otis redding’s “(Sitting on) The Dock of the Bay.” “She was a huge hit with the kids and she just loved the experience,” Wittmann says. Just as Shasta Live! (the stage name for the association’s concert series) offers a diverse mix of performers for adults, it also exposes children to new kinds of music, Judy Bush says. “I know with a couple of kids I spoke to after one of the performances, they heard a very classical group of players on violin, piano and cello, and the kids were saying how much they liked classical music. I was just

amazed. classical is totally out of the realm of what these kids would be listening to.” Teachers are as appreciative as the students, she says. “Teachers are thrilled. They get so excited. They send us emails about how pleased they are with the morning programs, the way the artists talked to the kids and the excitement. The kids are back to school by noon, and by 3 o’clock we’re getting emails thanking us.” For cash-strapped schools that have had to cut back or eliminate music programs, the cascade concerts are a godsend. “One of the teachers came up and thanked us and said ‘You are our fine arts program at this point. You’re it,’” Dave Bush says. Participation in the Fine Arts Enrichment program is free, but schools must provide their own transportation. The association estimates the program’s cost at $8,000, including artist fees and theater rental. About $5,000 is provided by Friends of Shasta Live, the association’s patronage program, and the remainder is covered by grants and season subscriptions. “I want to give a big shout out to US Bank, which has been a big help over the years, the redding rancheria community Fund from time to time, the Sierra Pacific Foundation recently and patrons,” says Wittmann. “That support has made a big difference.” The 2014-15 Shasta Live! season begins Oct. 3 with the violin and guitar duo of Alex DePue and Miguel De Hoyos; Al Simmons presents a one-man variety act on Nov. 5; William Florian features music of the 1960s on Jan. 30; and Steve Lippie pays a tribute to the chairman of the Board with “Simply Sinatra” on April 30. •

there are more Beef cattle in tehama county than there are people. They make not only for a picturesque landscape for people driving by, but are a powerful economic driver of the community. While Tehama county is steeped in its ranching tradition of rugged, hard work, it’s not all work and no play. In fact, the tenacious group of Tehama county cattleWomen throw one of the biggest parties of the year, the Beef ‘N Brew in downtown red Bluff. To be held Saturday, Sept. 20, the fifth annual Beef ‘N Brew will be a stroll through downtown businesses for beef appetizers and craft brews. As tastings come to an end, participants can congregate at the cone and Kimball Plaza for an evening concert by the Northern Heat Band.

“I really enjoy doing fundraisers for kids and education,” says cathy Tobin, 66, a cattleWoman and the driving force behind the event. The former National Hereford Woman of the Year has been in the cattle businesses her entire life, having been raised on a commercial cattle ranch and then as proprietor of a Horned Hereford ranch since 1971. While she stalwartly believes that beef is a Tehama county tradition, she also recognizes that the industry needs to keep a fresh approach to promoting itself. That’s one of the many goals of cattleWomen throughout the nation. “I like to promote it because it is my lifestyle and it is my business,” she says. continued on page 56

In her turn as chair of the Tehama county group, Tobin brought forth the idea of promoting beef through the Beef ‘N Brew gathering. The idea has caught on so well that in 2013 the event raged on despite a downpour of rain. People huddled under awnings, yet made their way from business to business. rain—whether a little or a lot—won’t keep people from their beef and beer. Each year the ante is upped in preparation of beef appetizers as local businesses and organizations compete for the coveted People’s choice award. There's a joke that chef Hobart of rolling Hills casino walks the fine line between appetizer and entree with his elaborate creations. “People definitely get their money’s worth,” says Tobin. Proceeds of the event are split between the Downtown red Bluff Businesss Association and the cattleWomen, who funnel their money to youth projects such as scholarships, price add-ons for students who sell steers at the Tehama District Fair and books for a local after-school program. Stephen Ferguson runs the round Up Saloon, where he joyously keeps up on craft brew trends and aspires to support regional breweries as well as downtown red Bluff. “Some of our closer friends will be there that haven’t been in the past because they weren’t ready yet,” he says of the brewmasters who will have their work represented. He notes that the smaller breweries such as Lassen Ale Works, Wild card and Fall river are all excited

to be part of Beef ‘N Brew to introduce themselves to a larger audience. Local favorite and perennial major sponsor Sierra Nevada will also be represented. Ferguson anticipates 75 different styles of beer to be represented by up to 30 breweries. He notes that patrons of the Beef ‘N Brew often drive his draught beer selections in the months to follow by making requests for the brews they preferred. “There are more breweries that want to come than we can actually handle,” he says. For the cost of admission, patrons can experience beer and appetizer tastings from 5 to 8pm at 42 downtown businesses. From 7 to 10pm, they can dance to the Northern Heat band and enjoy a complimentary tri-tip wrap made by local beef legend vic Woolery, and a full cup of Sierra Nevada. A souvenir 4 oz. plastic logo cup for tastings is also included. “You really can’t go wrong with good food and good beer,” says Steve Pluim, a red Bluff native now living in chico who plans to come home for the Beef

‘N Brew. Tehama county’s cattleWomen hope others will agree and join them, as well. •beef 'n brew

as mark anD ellen coleman watched the brilliant reds and oranges of a New Mexico sunset, they were looking at their future. They had moved from the urban setting of Austin, Texas, and came here looking for a retreat, which would draw them together as a family and make them better stewards of their world. The 20-acre lot outside of Taos had everything they wanted except electricity. As he gazed at the warm afternoon sun, Mark knew the answer to their dreams. With 39 employees, Wholesale Solar is a force in the solar energy business. With a strong web presence, the phones in their office ring nonstop with hopeful inquirers. From three offices in Taos, Mount Shasta and redding, orders are placed then shipped from their own distribution center throughout North America and other points on the globe. The office speaks of family and community, as the employee-owners use stand-up desks and yoga-ball chairs alongside traditional office equipment. The smiles of each and the openness of the space around them generates an energy of its own. Mark searched for solar panels for the home they were constructing in New Mexico. Finding a set from the Jimmy carter era, he constructed a system to power their home and pump water from the 1,000-foot-deep well. As others bought the lots around them, they wondered how to solve the power problems and Mark found himself working for them as a small solar-powered community was created, which still exists today. The colemans believe in community. They support many activities in the city around them, and provide employment and support for the people working for them in Northern california. However, they wanted their company to outlive4 continued on page 62

them and benefit as many people as possible. They set into place an employee stock ownership plan. Wholesale Solar became the property of all those working there. “We are 100 percent employee owned,” Mark says. “Our employees are motivated to improve the company. Some of the smartest people in our region work here.” Living off the grid in New Mexico and taking their business into an internet model, the colemans realized they could live wherever they wanted. “For years our family vacationed in the Mount Shasta area,” Mark says. “So we moved and opened an office for Wholesale Solar here.” Mark watched over the technological side of the company, while Ellen developed its business organization. They hired a general manager, Judy roda, and the business continued to bloom. Their daughter, Alexandra, oversees product, purchasing and pricing, as other employee-owners continue to grow their family as they are hired. As the day’s 200 calls roll in, voices are heard asking the questions, “What do you want to do, and how can I help you do it?” They help design systems for rvs, homes, telecommunications, as well as

the military and other government operations. “When people call us, they get a live person,” Mark says, “Each person here is engaged, interested, and knowledgeable.” Mark sits relaxed among the bustle of the office. “I sometimes wonder what I’m doing here. There are no dead weights here. They could do this without me,” he says. “It’s what I always wanted, to help people be self-reliant, independent and to live a different life that impacts the world.” •

on the last saturDay in sePtemBer, three amBitious chefs will arrive at the redding Farmers Market, knives sharpened, aprons on and competitive spirits fully engaged, competing to see who can do the best job cooking with three surprise ingredients, revealed to them moments before the chef at the Market cookoff competition begins. This is the third year that chefs who are part of the chef at the Market series will be participating in the cookoff. Wes Matthews of Market Street Steakhouse and Señor rosa’s is ready. “I love cooking at the market and I love competition. I love working with food, especially showing others my ideas,” he says. After the secret ingredients are unveiled, the chefs have 30 minutes to shop at the farmers market for the rest of the necessities for their creations. They have a little more than an hour to come up with a recipe that wins the judges over. Each chef will be judged on three criteria: presentation, use of secret ingredients and taste. Audience members will be given samples. The winner gets a trophy and another prize, yet to be revealed. Matthews will compete against two other chefs: roque carbajal from Sweetie’s catering and café and James Leedy from the Shasta Union High School District. celebrity judges include redding Mayor rick Bosetti, Jennifer Scarborough of Krcr channel 7 News and Michelle rogers, content editor at the record Searchlight. rogers, who is new to redding, looks forward to judging. “This is my first community event and I’m really excited to get involved,” she says. Scarborough, who will be judging for the third year, is equally enthusiastic. “It’s a little like watching an episode of Top chef. They all make delicious little dishes and the judges get treated to a beautiful presentation with nice dishes and silverware,” she says. “Like many people, I love to cook and I go to the Farmers Market, but I don’t always have specific ideas for what I buy. This is a great inspiration for that.” chef at the Market is put on by the Shasta Growers Association with substantial support from Healthy Shasta. The weekly live cooking demonstrations bring together talented chefs, locally grown food and shoppers to emphasize the benefits4 continued on page 66

c e l e B r i t y c h e f co o ko f f

of using fresh, local fruits and vegetables to prepare meals. chefs use seasonal ingredients available at that week’s market to introduce market-goers to the idea of nutritious cooking. chef at the Market also shines a spotlight on the benefits of supporting local farmers, local agriculture and the chefs and restaurateurs themselves. This is the fifth year of chef at the Market, and Jen Miller, a member of the Shasta Growers Association and owner of Measures of Joy Gluten Free Bakery, is coordinating the series this summer. “Healthy Shasta is a very big sponsor of the program and helped buy the trailer we needed to transport everything to the market. What we provide for the chefs is a portable kitchen: a tent, gas stoves, tables, chairs and a hand-washing station,” she says. The chefs bring in their own knives and specialty tools. They also provide signage, advertising and print the recipes to hand out when possible. Miller and other members of the Shasta Growers Association have been pleased with the response to chef at the Market. “We’re benefiting the community, promoting healthy eating and cooking at home, and promoting the chefs themselves. We share their bio, let them talk about their restaurant or business.” One chef raffled off a new spice rub he was developing after using it to grill vegetables. “I feel like it just checks off so many of those boxes of incorporating more than one purpose. It connects it all; it’s just another facet of promoting community. That’s what appealed to me about coordinating the program,” says Miller. The redding Saturday Market changed locations this year, as the parking lot west of city Hall is now the site of construction for the new police headquarters. vendors now set up in the parking lot behind city Hall, which offers more space, trees and shade. The new location has been popular with market-goers and vendors alike. “People can spend a little more time, sit on the grass and sit at the picnic tables. It just feels better – now there’s a place to have community. It feels more like an open-air Farmers Market, and it’s more of a family affair now. Kids come and Healthy Shasta does activities for them. Most of us are much happier and like how the city is partnering with us.” •

on a knoll just aBove the reDDing aQuatic center rests a little white house that might just be the best kept secret in redding. Within walking distance of the botanical gardens, the Sacramento river Trail and the Diestelhorst Bridge, the carter House boasts an incredible history. Built in 1942 for the Harlan carter family, the carter House has had the unique distinction of serving as a family residence, a miniature zoo of sorts, and a gallery, gift shop and meeting place for the North valley Art League in its lifetime. For all of its colorful history, this little jewel has maintained some anonymity.4 continued on page 70

The North valley Art League, a nonprofit, volunteer-based organization founded by eight local artists in 1979, has grown to include more than 250 artists. Dedicated to the professional, educational and economic development of North State artists, the art league has created a venue for people to create, experience and purchase world-class local artwork in diverse media, including photography, painting and sculpture. creativity blooms in the Matson, Mowder, Howe celebration Garden surrounding carter House—it’s a work of art itself. In 1980, Gary Matson planted some species native to the North State, spearheading a unique collection of vegetation that would become a part of the carter House Natural Science Museum. carter House was turned over to the city of redding to make way for caldwell Park, and was later incorporated into the Turtle Bay Exploration Park. When the animals that formerly lived at carter House were transferred to Turtle Bay, carter House was left empty.

In June of 2003, carter House was leased to the art league and renovated, preparing the structure for its new role as an art gallery. In 2004, North valley Art League opened its doors to the community in its new location. combining their passions, the art league and a group who sought to create a memorial garden for Matson, Winfield Mowder and Marcia Howe were able to salvage some of Matson's original plantings. They still remain today, along with countless new inclusions to the garden - a sweet nod to the native plant enthusiasts who had the vision so many years before. recognizing the significance of having a garden that is flourishing with native vegetation, The california Native Plant Society committed to assist with periodic maintenance of the garden so it will be preserved for generations to enjoy. The North valley Art League hosts several annual juried shows, in addition to featured member shows. The Small Painting Show begins on Sept. 2 and runs until Oct. 4. The art league welcomes new members and submissions for its juried shows from the public, hosts workshops and artist presentations, and works closely with redding Parks and recreation to offer children's art classes —a testament to4 continued on page 72

the league's commitment to reaching out to artists of all ages and skill levels in the North State. One of the biggest victories for the art league is what Howell calls a “revival” of Art in the Park, a special event that has taken place in caldwell Park for years. The event has been coordinated by a few different community organizations and had dwindled in attendance, but in 2011, it found its forever home with the North valley Art League. Art in the Park is scheduled for Sept. 28 from 9 am to 4pm. visitors are sure to be enchanted with original art and crafts created by members of the art league, food, activities for children, music by Shasta county’s Old Time Fiddlers, a vintage car and roaster display (put on by rats to riches), and, of course, the Ducky Derby. The Ducky Derby is an annual fundraiser coordinated by the redding East rotary that supports substance abuse prevention and youth programs in the North State. Although the Ducky Derby is not directly affiliated

with Art in the Park, the two non-profit organizations recognize the value and strength of working together to create one exciting, family friendly day in caldwell Park. Howell says “selfless giving” is what makes the North valley Art League such a dynamic entity in the North State. “It’s volunteer based. People do it because they want to. We welcome new members with open arms. There is a job for everyone — a shared responsibility. And we enjoy what we can create from our work together.”•

The Big Apple

in the manton aPPle festival’s early

years, folks would gather in Kay Zimmerman’s kitchen

to make 30 pies. But like a well-tended apple tree, the event

has sunk its roots into the community and flourished.4

“We did 180 pies last year,” says Zimmerman, who has lived in Manton for 25 years. “We do it all at the grange hall over two days now.” The event began as a small apple harvest fair in 1992, and has evolved into a North State mainstay, which draws more than 4,000 people to this 700-resident town. Organizers pride themselves in providing a venue for high quality, artisan-created art, crafts and food products. Naturally, the star of the show is the apple. Guests can find plenty of apple-themed products, locally grown apples and tasty treats that feature apples. Proceeds from booth rentals and pie booth sales support a variety of Manton organizations and scholarships to support the educational goals of Manton-area students. “It was started originally to help the local apple growers up in this area have a place to sell their apples,” Zimmerman says. “That’s still a focus, although there are not as many apple growers as there were then. As the years went by and we started making a little bit of money, we started scholarships for graduating seniors who were from this area. Almost all the money we make goes to those scholarships or other youth activities in the area.” Scholarships have benefited students who have gone to community colleges, chico State University, University of the Pacific and more. “Some of the kids, because they come from a small area, don’t have the

ability to get a lot of scholarships,” she says. Spread out over the grass at Manton Elementary School, the festival features a giant tent with entertainment underneath, along with about 100 booths where people sell food and handmade items. Guests can buy apple pies, either whole or by the slice, from festival organizers. vendors usually have about 700 pies for sale, and they’re always gone by day’s end, Zimmerman says. A pie baking contest and a children’s pie-eating contest also promise to be popular. And it’s a lovely excuse for people to take a leisurely drive to the country. “It’s a very small community, but a really tight-knit community,” Zimmerman says. “When people need something, everybody comes out and helps out. Even though you might not see these people on a daily basis, when there’s a need, we get together.”•

when the men anD women who serve our country return home, presumably it is not often they hear, “Do you want talk about it?” Yet, veterans and their loved ones, neighbors and communities must confront the repercussions of combat. This month and next, all branches of the Shasta Public Libraries will join 42 libraries statewide in a california reads program funded by cal Humanities on the theme “War comes Home,” designed to educate and open dialogue on this sensitive and controversial topic. The chosen book, "What It’s Like To Go To War" by vietnam Marine First Lieutenant and rhodes Scholar Karl Marlantes, presents readers with more than an autobiographical sketch of

one soldier’s story of war. “He’s an eloquent writer about his experience in vietnam, but the book goes further,”

says Elizabeth Kelley, reference librarian for Shasta Public Libraries. “He examines the psychological, philosophical and spiritual dilemmas soldiers face at war and when they

return home.” Kelley is working with others to bring Marlantes to redding as part of the two-month

series, which includes community discussions, film screenings, and activities facilitated by the library’s Teen Advisory Board. A $15,000 grant funded the acquisition of4

The first Pain Awareness Month was in 2001, when the Pain Awareness American Chronic Pain Association led a coalition of groups to establish September as Pain Awareness Month. Pain Awareness Month is a time to raise public awareness of issues in the area of pain and pain management. Pain medicine is offered through several specialties that are concerned with the evaluation and treatment, of persons in pain. Some conditions may have pain and associated symptoms arising from discrete causes, such as postoperative pain, pain associated with cancer, or may be conditions in which pain constitutes the primary problem, such as neuropathy or headaches. For example, neuropathic pain is a complex, chronic pain state that usually is accompanied by tissue damage. With neuropathic pain, the nerve fibers themselves may be damaged and dysfunctional. These damaged nerve fibers send signals to the brain. The impact of nerve fiber injury may include a change in nerve function both at the site of injury and areas around the injury.

TWO TYPES OF PAIN: •Acute pain is initiated suddenly, can be mild to severe, but lasts less than three

months.

•Chronic pain can be described as ongoing or recurrent pain, lasting beyond the usual course of acute illness injury more than 3 months to a life time; and it adversely affects the individual’s well-being.

MEDICATION AND TREATMENTS: Medications and pain procedures, along with other pain management techniques, such as relaxation, pacing, and exercise can play a major role in reducing pain and improving quality of life. However, patients’ medical conditions and pain thresholds differ. What helps your family or friends may not be good for you. It pays to learn as much as you can about the treatment options available and how to use them safely. If you have questions, ask your health care provider. He or she is your best resource for finding the treatment approach that will balance the risks and rewards of any treatment in your unique situation. Good communication with your health care provider is vital to receiving the help you need to live well in spite of your pain. Greenville Rancheria has two Pain Management providers with over 25 years’ of experience combined, Bill Casavant, PA and John Pearson, FNP. If you would like to be evaluated for pain management, please have your primary care provider send a complete referral to the Greenville Rancheria Health Center referral department. Our Community Health Representative / Medical Assistants (CHR/MA’s), Jennifer and Maria, will be presenting a Chronic Disease Self-Management workshop. They are looking for 15 participants from the Community to participate in this 6 weeks workshop that was designed by Stanford University. This workshop contains general principals of self-managing and emphasizes the common elements of various chronic health problems including pain. For more details to register, please contact one of our CHR/MA’s, at 530-528-8600.

books, staffing and related activities. Included on the library’s menu of options are several films, noteworthy among them a Bill Moyers interview with Marlantes and a special screening of "Hell And Back Again" on September 11. “Let’s Talk About It” facilitated discussions offer community members an opportunity to engage in discussion and hear from a panel of veterans. A second book, "A Stranger In My Bed" written by local author Debbie Sprague, may appeal to those particularly interested in how post-traumatic stress disorder has affected not only their veteran loved one but themselves. The author, who is married to a veteran, will speak about her experiences with PTSD in October. “The point of this is to get the books out into the community, so we will be giving out free copies,” says Kelley who has ordered 300 of the Marlantes book. “We have

had so much interest in 'A Stranger In My Bed' that I had to order more. Several of the local book clubs are reading it.” copies of both books will be acquired

for permanent circulation. With a veteran population of about 10 percent in Shasta county, the read topic is one that affects vast numbers in the community, from home to church and school to job. One of three initial grantees of the california State Library (working in partnership with cal vets), Shasta Public Libraries was selected to establish one of the first veterans resource centers through the california library system, with the goal of connecting veterans to their benefits. “Many veterans are not receiving the health and education benefits they are entitled to receive,” says Kelley. “The

purpose of our veteran’s resource center is to connect them with these resources. Often friends and family want to learn more and sometimes it is a trickle down process; information gets to veterans that way.” When Shasta college English professor James crooks learned about the community read from one of the Shasta college librarians, he contacted Kelley, eager to have his classes participate. “There are always one or two veterans in most of my classes,” says crooks, who served in the National Guard during the September 11 attacks and spent a year in Iraq. “The veteran theme is important and it is personally meaningful as well.” crooks teaches on the red Bluff campus but plans to offer his students optional field trips to the read events in redding and is also looking for guest speakers to visit his classroom, adding, “I certainly want to dispel stereotypes and raise awareness of the issues that veterans of this generation experience.” “I hear more and more from people in book clubs say, ‘My dad was in the military and we never talked about it, but there was something wrong,’” says Kelley. “The veteran may have passed away, but people were still affected. We will be discussing what it is like to return from war, the issues not only our returning veterans face but also how family and friends are affected, and what we as a community can learn and do to assist our returning veterans with the transition back to civilian life.” Members of the community are invited to read the book either individually or as part of a group. “What It’s Like To Go To War” is the featured October selection for the Shasta Public Libraries Best of the West Book Discussion Group.•

a life can turn on a smile returneD. Promising Smiles, a program of Shasta community Health center and Soroptimist International of Downtown redding, gives low-income women with missing and damaged teeth a change in look – and outlook – by providing free restorative dental work.“It’s just astonishing,” says Lori Goyne, Soroptimist service chair. “When their smile is restored, their confidence is restored. They are able to join the rest of the world.” Missing teeth can cause women to miss out on jobs, children’s activities and other parts of life, says cheryl russo, associate dental director for Shasta community Health in redding. “They are self-conscious. They have low self-esteem. They don’t smile. Some don’t even go out in public.” Promising Smiles participant roxanne was turned down for jobs because of missing teeth. restorative work filled the top and bottom gaps, making her feel better about herself, according to a testimonial she provided for the program. “Before, I was depressed and would not leave the house. I think I can get a job now.” Program participant Gina was laid off from a maid job and too self-conscious to smile during an interview for another job. When she got her new teeth, one of her first plans was to finally meet her son’s teacher. “I am looking forward to getting a job where I do not have to be hidden from the public,” she says. Some Promising Smiles participants have tooth loss because of past drug use or domestic violence. The dental troubles also can be the result of going years without care because of lack of money and dental insurance. “It is difficult for them to have access to appropriate dental care,” says Franklin Pierce, dental director for Shasta community Health center.4 continued on page 84

Most Promising Smiles participants are missing front teeth. The program provides crowns, bridges, partial or full dentures. Dentists address any situations affecting oral health. “Other issues are pain, infection and other problems with teeth,” Pierce says. Participants must be referred by a Shasta community Health center dentist or clinician. And they must be drug-free and sober. Priority is given to single women who provide the financial support for their families and those with education and career goals. “That is who we are looking for – those who want to help themselves,” Goyne says. Promising Smiles is in its fourth year. The program emerged from a brainstorming session by Soroptimist members looking for a unique program to meet a community need, Goyne says. “At that time, Medi-cal was not covering any adult dental services.” The effort meshes with Soroptimist’s charge of helping women. It launched with a $2,500 grant to Shasta community Health center, which has a dental clinic in downtown redding. The mission of the nonprofit is to provide health care to the underserved. “They have the dentists and the facilities in place, so it was a fantastic win-win partnership,” Goyne says. Shasta community Health care uses money from Promising Smiles to pay for reconstructive materials and lab fees. russo says the procedures could cost a patient $900 to $3,000 at a private dentist. The initial $2,500 grant from Soroptimist helped three women, russo says. The next year, The Women’s Fund of the Shasta regional community Foundation gave $10,000 to Promising Smiles. That was followed by an anonymous $10,000 donation in 2013. This year

Soroptimist provided $4,700. Promising Smiles is now Downtown redding Soroptimist’s signature project. It expects to donate at least $5,000 yearly, Goyne says. Twenty-four women have been helped so far, and russo says another four or five will be served with the remainder of this year’s funding. Medi-cal restored some dental services for adults this year, but coverage is restricted and doesn’t include all treatment needed by the women, Pierce says. As a dentist, working with Promising Smiles participants is rewarding, he says. The patients are very appreciative. “We’ve had women in tears after they have had their teeth restored. It’s been very heartwarming,” Pierce says. Smile restoration sets other change in motion, Goyne says. It can be an important step to seeking and getting a job that will improve a family’s financial picture. And that helps the whole community. “It’s not some froufy self-improvement thing,” Goyne says. “They are on their way to getting on their feet again.” •

This summer, my travels took me home... to Texas, where a front porch without a swing is like biscuits without gravy. Where y’all is the only proper pronoun, everything is darlin’ and someone is always getting their heart blessed. Where words are long, macaroni and cheese is a vegetable, chicken is fried and okra is planted in every garden. We have several rows in our garden here in redding. I love it best fried or in a gumbo, but when an abundant harvest lays on your counter, try this spicy pickled version. Making and canning your own pickled okra is easier than you think, and this method is so easy, anyone can do it! These spicy and crunchy pods are perfect as a side dish or part of a relish tray. They're also an unusual garnish for a spicy martini or bloody mary.

SNAPSHOT

Calm, Cool, Collected by Patrick John

radio people are high strung. We’re passionate about things. We’re impatient, often abrasive, and can sometimes be (my favorite) diFFiCULT. We’re a-types, control freaks, and typically demanding. We’ve been told this many times, by co-workers, friends, and family. Now, i know this isn’t unique to just folks in my line of work and that you, or someone you know, may behave the same way. What to do about it? it’s hard to take recommendations from others, but i recently skimmed an article on the benefits of meditation and decided to self-check and learn more. Ten years ago, i would have said meditation is something crazy, trendy, New age nuts would do, but age makes you a little more open to new ideas, as does my wife repeatedly telling me i need to relax and chill out. Merriam Webster defines meditation as “the act or process of spending quiet time in thought.” That doesn’t sound so hard, but it’s more difficult than you think to clear your mind. a few basic recommendations from the National Center for Complementary and alternative Medicine: - an open mind. - a meditation space, somewhere comfortable, quiet, and distraction-free – it can even be outdoors. - a specific, comfortable posture – sitting, lying down, whatever works for you. - a focus of attention (could be a physical object, your breathing, music, etc.). about six months ago, aBC News anchor dan harris published a book called “10% happier” that detailed his own struggles with

anxiety. harris had an on-air anxiety attack in which he melted down in front of millions of people during a Live good Morning america newscast. That spurred him to seek the root of the issue and, years later, take up daily meditation. Many successful people swear by meditation; oprah Winfrey, Clint eastwood, Paul McCartney, and Kobe Bryant all meditate daily. So do media mogul Rupert Murdoch, athletes Joe Namath and Barry zito, and actress Jennifer aniston. That’s some pretty good company. do they all know something we don’t? For me, stress and impatience are what i’m trying to get a handle on, but millions of people meditate daily for other reasons, like alleviating pain, depression and insomnia. others swear meditation has helped lower blood pressure, increase mental focus and brain function, and even spur more creativity. if you can’t sit still for 10 to 20 minutes a day, walking meditation may be for you. Redding’s Center for Spiritual Living has an outdoor labyrinth to walk while you focus and reflect, and there’s a rock Peace Labyrinth on the South side of the Sacramento River Trail below the Ribbon Bridge. if you need some help getting started with your own meditation, there are a couple of local resources you may want to visit: Center for Spiritual Living, Redding: www.cslredding.org/index.html Spiritual Teacher Layne Russell: www.highmountainwind.com/meditation.htm Let’s do this thing. The next time you see me i should be calm, collected and focused. Wish me luck!

i go out and make one. if it doesn’t turn

ENJOY SUPPORTS LOC AL ARTISANS & FARMERS

MADE IN THE


Enjoy: How did you become interested in pottery?nancy: I was always an artist. For years I was a florist, and I also worked in watercolors. Then I put my hands in clay and it was all over. I’ve been doing it for 18 years.

Enjoy: What types of things do you create?nancy: I was doing raku for a while, and I did decorator pieces that were mostly animals, like rabbits and rams. One of my sets is bamboo forests. For Enjoy the Store, I do more functional ware, like pots and platters and mugs.

Enjoy: Why do people love your products?nancy: I make my own glazes. One is kind of turquoise and brown, and another that I just developed is a plum color that flows into a brown, and it looks like mountains when it’s on a mug. I love it.

Enjoy: Where and when do you work?nancy: I have a small studio with a wheel and kiln on the side of my house, and on the outside is a plaque that says, “You must be centered to enter.” I work when it’s cool in the morning, and when the Giants game is on. My husband is a huge Giants fanatic, so I go lose my mind out there.

Enjoy: What do you enjoy about pottery?nancy: It’s tactile, and you can make something from nothing. If I need a planter, I go out and make one. If it doesn’t turn out, I make another. I fell in love with clay as soon as I knew I could make something that I saw in my head.

Enjoy: Do you have an assistant?nancy: My dog, Blue, pots with me. He’s a 7-year-old black lab. My husband will come home and say, “I know you’ve been playing with clay, because he’s covered in it.”

EVEry day in tHis country, 1,900 children become victims of abuse or neglect, and four of them will die. court Appointed Special Advocates (cASA) for children is a network of 951 community-based programs that recruit, train and support

citizen-volunteers to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children in courtrooms and communities. volunteer advocates—empowered directly by the courts—offer judges the critical information they need to ensure that each child’s rights

and needs are being attended to while in foster care. volunteers stay with children until they are placed in loving, permanent homes. For many abused children, a cASA volunteer is the only constant adult presence in their lives. More than two million

children have been helped by the program since its inception in 1977.

How you can HELp: Today, 60 percent of children in need do not have a cASA volunteer and every child in the foster care and child welfare system should have one. A cASA volunteer can make a lifelong difference for an abused and neglected child.

People can also help by providing financial support or being someone cASA can rely on when critical policy decisions are being made.
