SPARROW 5 A unique place for art and artists in Roseville M. Taylor describes her shop, Sparrow 5, as eclectic. “We do a lot of repurposing of furniture, we have a lot of local artists, we sell gift items, we do art classes, and we have an arts studio where we teach classes,” she says. “We try to do things that are funky and silly.” The shops constantly-changing inventory is difficult to categorize, even for Taylor. It includes one-of-a-kind works of art, jewelry, refurbished antiques, decorated furniture, rare piece of home décor and quirky gifts. “It’s very eclectic,and very artsy, but if you have a style, whatever your style is, you can introduce some really unique things, and make it really interesting,” Taylor points out. Not only does Sparrow 5 showcase local artists, but it cultivates them as well. Taylor, who herself has an extensive artistic background, teaches a multitude of classes for any level of artist, including beginners and children. Classes are kept small and intimate, and private classes are available.

A DASH OF PANACHE “Celebrating friendships with style and pizzazz”
A
t A Dash of Panache, you can be as fancy as you want to be. The café and tea parlor has been serving up their dainty style on Vernon Street for the past 12 years, including sandwiches, salads, soups, coffee and lattes, and Gunther’s hand-made ice cream.
“What’s unique about us is that we’re the only French-Deco tea parlor in the Northwest,” explains owner Scott Alvord. “Most of [others] are English or Victorian by design. We have black table clothes, white doilies, and crystal glass plates. It’s very unique for a tea parlor.” To add fun and a little sparkle, they also offer tea party patrons the use of their vanity closet, with which guests can dress up in hats, boas, and jewelry. “It makes for some fun pictures,” says Alvord. A Dash of Panache is also a popular place to hold baby and bridal showers, ladies nights out events, and themed birthday parties. “They’re kind of over-the-top parties: we do royal princess, diva salon parties, crazy hair salon parties, tea birthday parties,” Alvord adds.

THE PLACE Fine dining meets a good, old-fashioned good time
F
eeling homesick for his native Boston, Chef Michael McDermott created his own home away from home in his Roseville restaurant, The Place.
“This restaurant, though it’s classified as fine dining, this is my ‘Cheers.’ This is the place I would hang out if I didn’t have to work here,” he says.“We specialize in Italian, fromscratch recipes that have been handed down for generations in my own family and then some of which I’ve crafted along the way.” Those culinary heirlooms include house-made, made-toorder tiramisu, wood-fired and hand-stretched artisan pizzas, and McDermott’s famous lasagna. Taking three days to make, it’s only available on the weekends. “We do a handmade lasagna Bolognese, that’s a three meat sauce. It’s a substantial size when we serve it, and I only serve it on Fridays and Saturdays because it does take three days to make,” he says. “I sell out within two hours each time.” The Place’s artisan cocktails are not to be missed. From their house-made grappa and limoncello to their Italian Mai Tai, the bar churns out quite a few innovative creations, as well as a few classic ones. One that beats the heat, and pairs with just about anything, is The Place’s sangria. “Sangria is very easy drinking, it certainly goes with basic pastas and pizza for sure,” explains McDermott. “It has grapes, and oranges, and lemon, and lime, and apple, and obviously the traditional wine, but then it’s got a kick as well. It’s really good.”

CHESTER’S JEWELRY & LOANS Serving Roseville since 1953
S
tepping into Chester’s Loan & Jewelry is like stepping back in time. Opened in 1953 by partners Chester Svatos and Morgan Lawson, Vernon Street’s venerable pawn shop has taken in its share of interesting items, many of which cover the shop’s walls: Antique clocks and lanterns, bicycles and guitars, saddles and even a horse-drawn carriage. And while the shop no longer deals in antiques or firearms, they still do brisk business in the jewelry trade.
So if you’re in the market for something shiny, or even just want to admire the decades of history adorning the walls, stop in at Chester’s, and while you’re there, say hello Sunny, the shop’s official four-legged greeter!
“In the past we’ve taken everything a typical pawn shop takes, tools, musical equipment, almost anything that would fit through the door that has value,” says owner Jerry Lawson, who took over the shop with wife Eileen from his grandfather in 1977. “But as time went on, we narrowed it down and we mainly deal with jewelry here now. It’s easier to deal with.”
CHESTER’S LOAN & JERELRY
“Jerry is also a jeweler and he does jewelry repair,” says Eileen Lawson. “So if you buy a ring, he can size it for you. And he also does outside repairs: necklaces, ring sizing, things like that.”

F
or the past 13 years, Bartlett Flowers & Gifts has been serving the South Placer and Sacramento counties, delivering joy in its floral form to weddings, special events and everyday occasions. The florist celebrates the seasons with blooms as well as an affordable selection of gifts and home accessories.
“We try to have a variety of things,” says owner Chuck Bartlett. “We’ve tried to concentrate our price point to be something that most anybody can buy. We have cards, candles, and things that are fairly inexpensive.” Trends for fall include dried flowers and leaves and items for lavish nuptials. “September and October are really big wedding months,” explains Bartlett. “You think May or June, but we’re just as busy in [the fall] because the weather is nice and with the availability of venues, you see a lot more weddings.” “With Mom-and-Pop businesses you are supporting the community,” Bartlett continues. “When you go to a corporate-owned store, or a big-box store, who knows where your money is going. But when you support local businesses, it does stay in the community.”

SAVE YOUR SIX Where to learn from the best
P
rivate investigator. Bail agent. Firearms instructor. Rob Dick has done it all. The owner of Save Your Six is a former Sacramento Sheriff Deputy with quite a varied background. It includes being a renowned bounty hunter who’s worked on several national, high-profile crime cases. Dick also brings more than 20 years of experience to his training courses, offered at his facility on Vernon Street.
In addition to more advanced classes, such as bail agent and security guard training, taser certification,and concealed carry permit courses, Save Your Six also offers basic, introductory safety courses for those with little to no experience with gun handling. “Usually we run the NRA’s handgun safety course that gives you familiarization,” Dick says. “It runs you through how [guns] work. We get into a little bit of handling in a safe environment. It’s a general, overall safety course.” What sets Save Your Six apart from other training facilities is its state-of-the-art interactive firearms simulator, with which students can engage in scenarios as simple target practice to complex real-world situations like active shooters. There are even Wild West and zombie scenarios for more light-hearted training. “There’s sound, recoil and the live action on the screen. It’s completely safe, but it is real firearms,” explains Dick. “You can learn familiarization and it’s as real as you can get with no possible way of injuring yourself. There’s no live round coming out of it, there’s no accident potential. That way we can instill good techniques and safe handling.”

We can do all kinds of hair, and that’s one of the most important things that we want people to know. We can do any kind of hair, long, short, ethnic, it doesn’t matter.” Perry’s shop also offers straight razor shaves, “which is kind a dying art form,” adds Bramhill. Prices have not changed since it opened in 1999, with haircuts still setting you back just $16.

CRAFT BEER
Roseville, and the surrounding Placer County area, is awash with microbreweries. Their craft beer creations offer myriad varieties and flavors to discerning beer drinkers and those looking for something different than big-label brews.
THE MONK’S CELLAR BREWERY AND PUBLIC HOUSE Craft beer and fresh pub fare liven up historic downtown Roseville
L
ocal sons Andy Klein and Paul Gould remember a time when Vernon Street was at the heart of Roseville’s smalltown community.
“When we were kids [growing up here],” remembers Gould. “When you went to the movies you went to the Tower Theater, there was a Frosty Freeze next to the Tower Theater that you went to for hamburgers, you got your haircut at the barber shop. It was little-town America down here and we’d like to see it be that again.” So when the two childhood friends decided to go into business together, combining Klein’s experience as a brewmaster and Gould’s business acumen, Vernon Street was one of their top choices. “We both remember Vernon Street, what it used to be, it used to be the only place in town,” says Klein. “So when we heard the city was really trying to put some money and effort downtown, we started talking to them, they liked our concept, and here we are.” Together with fellow partner Tom Rotelli and fellow brewmaster Peter York, Klein and Gould opened The Monk’s Cellar Brewery and Public House in October of last year. The elegantly furnished restaurant features artisan craft beers, bistro-style pub fare, and a casual atmosphere (which is pur-
posefully free of television screens). The Monk’s Cellar offers a variety of house-brewed craft beers, some of which are seasonal features, and some of which are permanently on tap. “The beers themselves are Belgian and European inspired, but we put a little bit of West Coast California flair on them as well,” says Klein. “We have some English beers, one of which is an English Pale Ale named after the crooked bridge here in Roseville, the Crooked Bridge ESB, and then we have a London-style porter, but we also do some American, main-stream styles like IPA’s which are popular these days.” Klein, who has 20 years worth of professional experience under his belt, started his career with the Sacramento Brewing Company. Now that he is running his own show, he uses a few distinctive brewing techniques that impart his beers with unique qualities. “We don’t filter the beers, we let them naturally do their thing,” explains Klein. “So sometimes it takes a little bit longer than we would like. But I think it’s worth it in the end because the beer tastes a lot better. Depending on how tight you filter it, filtering can remove some of the flavor, some of the color even.”

In addition to utilizing modern closed fermentation tanks, Klein and fellow brewmaster Peter York brew batches in open fermentation tanks, an older style not commonly seen in American breweries.
thing is made in-house,” says Gould. “Of course you have to have hamburgers, and we grind it out of three different kinds of meat, we bake the bun here, we pickle the vegetables that go on top of it, all the sauces are made in-house.”
“What we found is that beer done in the open fermentation tanks comes out with softness to it,” explains Klein. “We’ve done [batches] in the closed tank and the open tank with the same exact recipe, the same exact process, and the one that came out of the open tank had certain softness and had kind of more rounded edges to it. There’s not a huge difference, but a subtle one. It has a neat appeal to people coming in and it shows them what it is we’re doing, and that beer is alive and it’s a craft.”
“We wanted to have a tight menu, where we could do well, and everything on it was good, so we tried to keep it small and fun,” he adds. “We have a number of items on the menu that are specials, seasonal things that change, whatever we can find that’s good and fresh.”
With beers ranging from their light and refreshing biere blanche, a Belgian style white, to their English style London Porter, the variety of drafts on tap at the Monk’s Cellar pair well with the seasonal selections available at the restaurant. “European pub food is kind of the driving force behind it. The idea is to make it fresh and make it ourselves. Almost every-
The restaurant’s décor, as well as its name, Monk’s Cellar, originally came from Klein’s passion for European beer making, in particular Belgian brews. But the business has since come to reflect a more complete resemblance of its namesake. “In Belgium and Northern France, monks really did this type of beer making, all of which was done in the cellar [because] the cellar was cool, and that’s where you stored things,” explains Gould. “The monastery itself functioned as a hub of the community; they fed the community, they pro-

tected it, and they spiritually guided it. So with breweries, there’s a history of being the center of community. Even in small towns, up until prohibition, every town had a brewery, and it was a focal point. The way we try to [imitate] that is to donate.” “We essentially have three tenants of our business. One, of course is our beer, another is the food, and the third is our local community,” adds Klein. “We spend a lot of time and resources, a lot of donating to local community non-profits. You really will see us out there as much as we possibly can, donating beer for this charity or that charity. It’s not just a cliché, but truly it’s in our business plan. It’s in the core of what we want to do and want to be a part of.”

LOOMIS BASIN BREWING COMPANY “Always Fresh, Always Local”
T
he Loomis Basin Brewing Company is a family-owned and operated microbrewery with a local cult following. Father and son brew masters Jim and Kenny Gowan, who have nearly 40 years of commercial brewing experience between them, opened up the 20-barrel beer center five years ago.
“We’re very hands-on,” says Kenny. “We handle the product from A to Z, even as far as packaging it into bottles. We run it all. Our tagline is ‘Always fresh, always local.’” With roots that go back several generations, the Gowan family has received and appreciated some serious support from their hometown of Loomis. Their products are always released first at their own tasting room on Swetzer. “It’s kind of got a cult following now—it’s kind of a high demand product. So we release it here at the front door to make sure my town and my locals have the first crack at it,” Kenny observes. The Loomis Basin Brewing Company also handles its own product distribution, eschewing the large corporation route.
“We’re in the Sacramento Valley, Placer County all the way up to Auburn, Grass Valley and Nevada City,” Kenny says. “We’re in all the Bel Airs and Rayley’s. We’re in all the Nugget Markets out to Vacaville and Elk Grove, all the local Whole Foods, all the local Total Wine & More.” But it is still the tasting room in Loomis where locals most enjoy grabbing a pint, bottle or growler. Tuesdays through Saturdays also feature various food trucks to pair with the pale ale, IPA, pilsner, as well as live music on Friday and Saturday evenings. And while the Loomis Basin Brewing Company is on a successful track, its focus is still taking care of Placer County’s community. “We’re not in a big hurry, we’re trying to grow organically and smart,” Kenny acknowledges. “We’re not trying to conquer the West Coast in the first 5 years. I want to be doing the same thing in 20 or 25 years. We’ll grow as we keep expanding, but we want to make sure that before we’re in any other state or the Bay Area or anything like that, first and foremost, we’re taking care of our locals before we go anywhere else.”
“We still self-distribute, we’re one of the lone breweries locally that still own our distribution rights,” he continues. “Everything is in-house. We can control where our product goes and who has it and say yes or no. Your hands are a little more tied when you’re with a distributer.” According to the California Craft Brewing Association, localized brewing is becoming an exploding force across the Golden State, contributing $6.5 billion to the economy in 2014 alone. The CCBA also states that the economic impact of craft brewing jumped more than 18 percent in that same year. Loomis Basin Brewing Company’s coveted concoctions are available bottled and on tap in restaurants, bars and supermarkets throughout Northern California.

What you need to know about selecting your next floor covering. By Donnie Gupton Precision Flooring is celebrating its 30th year of business and has been a leader in helping homeowners find the flooring solution that best suits their needs. With our years of experience we have learned a thing or two and below we will share some of that with you. 1. Lifestyle is most important – There are thousands of flooring options, some better than others. How you and your family live on the floor will be a major factor on which floor you select. There is no perfect floor but being educated and having expectations set properly is a huge key to the overall experience. Dogs and kids add a lot of traffic and will require a more durable floor. Families that take their shoes off before entering their home experience longer last flooring. A single individual might be able to make any floor work with their lifestyle. It’s pretty simple the more the traffic that faster the floor wears. Make sure you know all the preventive maintenance tips.

2. Hardwood still rules – Hardwood flooring is still king of the industry. Hardwood flooring is very durable but there is a lot to know. Should I buy solid or engineered? Is engineered hardwood real hardwood? What species of wood is right for me? Is hardness of the wood everything? What types of finishes are available? What types of textures should I consider for my family and home? All of these are great questions and there are a ton more to know. The trends in the hardwood world are always changing. Here are a few of the top trends. Wider is better. A lot of wide plank flooring is on the market today. Board length is becoming more important and the lengths keep getting longer. Consumers are more ok with natural characteristics of hardwood than ever before. Knots and mineral streaks are now a thing of beauty. Matte finishes are being purchased more and more. The lower the sheen the less imperfection you see. Knowing all your options and being educated about hardwood is extremely important before purchase. Not all options are good for every lifestyle and can leave you unhappy if you don’t know what you are buying. 3. Carpet is getting softer – Carpet is carpet, but now carpet manufacturers are seeing how soft they can make them. With nylon fibers like Stainmaster Tru soft and Tactesse Nylon you have plenty of comfortable options. Even your low pile carpets feel softer to the touch.
Just like every other part of the industry, durability and longevity is always at the premium. Carpet has made great strides with these characteristics as well. Solution died nylons are making carpets more stain resistant than ever. 4. Is that Laminate? Laminate is one of the more durable flooring options you can put in your home. You need to make sure you know the AC rating on your laminate so you have an idea of durability. As durable as it is, laminate is not a lifetime product and it is not easy to repair at all. The new designs available are incredible now, as it is becoming more and more difficult to tell the difference between hardwood and premium laminates. The best laminates have the least pattern repeat from box to box. Formaldehyde is a dangerous compound to bring in to your home and laminates are notorious for having a high count of formaldehyde. As a consumer, make sure you are buying CARB compliant laminate. 5. Luxury Vinyl is the new player in town. Vinyl flooring has always been a great product for the home, it is one of the most moisture resistant floors that you can buy. Until a few years ago vinyl tiles and planks did not exist in the residential market because of vinyl’s natural tendency to shrink. With new technologies this no longer a concern. The vinyl tiles and planks are some of the best looking alternative flooring options on the market. The luxury vinyl tiles are warmer underfoot, softer, quieter and easier to install than stone or ceramic tiles. The planks provide a nice hardwood look and the visuals continue to improve. Like hardwood you will see a lot of wide plank options. You get the look of wood with the moisture resistance of vinyl. 6. Is this all we know? There are a ton of flooring options out there. This is just scratching the surface of information available. Precision Flooring offers hardwood, carpet, laminate, vinyl, cork, bamboo, rubber and water proof products. Our consultants are equipped with specialized knowledge on how to select the best flooring for your home and lifestyle.

DAY WITH A DEPUTY Annual event connects the public and first responders outside of a crisis
T
he Placer County Sheriff’s Council is reaching out to the community and its families, putting a friendly face on first responders. Their annual Day With a Deputy event, hosted by Granite Bay’s Bayside Church, seeks to connect the public with the police and fire units that serve them in their time of need. Unfortunately for many, especially children, those interactions usually only come during frightening emergencies.
“It’s a chance for families, and for kids, to see the deputies up close, talk to them, get a look at some of their equipment, and just become familiar. It’s a chance for them to see these people in a good light, where things are fun and everybody is having a good time, not an emergency situation or some type of police activity that might ordinarily upset children,” explains Placer County Sheriff’s Council Director Darrell Williams. “This is a chance for them to see these people in real life, and see that these are people like their moms and dads. They get to see them, meet them, and talk with them in a good light, in a fun setting, something that’s enjoyable, and something they can relate to later on. And they get a chance to see that someone running around in a uniform isn’t the bad person that they sometimes hear about.” Placer County Sheriffs, South Placer Fire Department, California Highway Patrol, search and rescue teams, SWAT
teams, and K9 units will be some of the first responder units on hand for live demonstrations, showcasing departmental equipment, and interacting with the public. Parents will also be able to create ID packages for their children, which will include DNA and fingerprints. The Placer County Sheriff’s Council is comprised of local business people who seek to support local law enforcement, particularly officers in the field, with funds for specialized equipment and programs that may not be included in departmental budgets. “We raise funds to help offset budgetary items that the sheriff’s office can’t handle, with all the budget cuts and things that have been going on, especially in the past five or six years,” says Williams. “Things like night-vision scopes, ballistic shields, equipment that the sheriff’s office would like to be able to purchase, but sometimes can’t. We step into that void and supply funds. It’s primarily to make the deputy’s job safer and easier so everybody goes home at the end of the day.” “It’s a really fun, and free event, geared towards families and children,” he adds. “When people come to the event and see the ‘show,’ and see everything that’s done, they go away amazed. We hope to have a really large turnout this year.”

BACKPACKS FOR HUNGRY CHILDREN Placer Food Bank’s program keeps kids fed at home
F
or a lot of people, the weekend is something they look forward to. But for children in food-insecure homes, many of whom rely on free or reduced price school lunches, weekends can be an anxious time. The Placer Food Bank’s BackPack program aims to ease such hunger pains.
In Placer County alone, nearly 20 percent of children, almost 17,000 of them, go hungry on a regular basis. The Placer Food Bank, which serves Placer, El Dorado, and Nevada counties, distributed 7.3 million pounds of food in
2014, and served an estimated 62,000 individuals a month. Together with Feeding America, the Placer Food Bank’s BackPack program provides 880 students a week with non-perishable and easily prepared items such as breakfast cereals, applesauce or fruit cups, macaroni and cheese and granola bars every Friday. The program keeps them sustained over the weekend, all for about $4 a bag. Funding for the BackPack program comes entirely from donations from individuals, corporate sponsors such as Raley’s Food for Families, and grants from organizations such as Wells Fargo and Wal-Mart. At Roseville’s Woodbridge Elementary School, 100 percent of the 354 students participate in the BackPack program. Principal Kari Hazen can attest to how beneficial the program has been to her kids, as well as to the fact that learning is much more of a challenge for hungry students. “Just think about yourself if you’ve only had a couple of cups of coffee and you haven’t had any breakfast, how does that affect your brain? Your brain feels a little more nervous and it’s difficult to focus. If you have food in your belly at the start of your day, you’re able to focus, you’re able to be calmer, and it really sets the tone for a positive learning environment,” she explains. “The kids feel that they’re cared for at school and that they’re able to have their needs taken care of. A lot of kids on Friday are anticipating and waiting for their BackPack and it really alleviates anxiety that students may have.” Placer Food Bank started out initially as Roseville’s Community Resource Council in 1970. By 1985, the organization’s services encompassed a food bank, and by 1990, they joined forces with Feeding America. Although their service area grew to include El Dorado and Nevada counties in 2000, they were still considered a small organization, until the economy took a downturn.
Above: Placer Food Bank’s BackPack program provides food for children in food-insecure homes, many of whom rely on free or reduced cost school lunches provided during the week. The bags include non-perishable items that children can easily prepare for themselves including cereal, crackers, granola bars, and macaroni and cheese. The cost for each bag is $3.90.

PLACER FOOD BANK
8284 Industrial Ave. Roseville, CA 95678 (916) 783-0481 placerfoodbank.org
“When the recession hit in 2007, it was a completely different ballgame all together,” says Executive Director Dave Martinez. “Before that we served probably 20 organizations, we did some direct services, and [helped] about 5,000 individuals a month. Today we serve about 83 organizations and through those organizations we probably serve about 70,000 individuals a month.”
Martinez. “One of the things that we ran into was that kids were taking a bag and coming back and saying, ‘I’ve got a brother or sister at home, can I take an extra bag?’ They’re not afraid to ask. Now we’re looking at what we can do to get fresh produce out here to the school. That will be another program that we’re looking at expanding for our Childhood Initiative.”
The Placer Food Bank has a multitude of programs aimed at helping local families. The organization works to promote California’s CalFresh program, Placer Community Gardens, and Healthy Plates, Healthy Families.
“It’s important to look at this knowing that parents are doing everything that they can because they want a better life for their children,” adds Hazen. “There shouldn’t be judgment involved with what a child eats or doesn’t eat. It’s about survival and doing what’s best for kids. They’re not bad parents, they’re amazing parents. They’re parents that care for their children and this is just a resource that helps support doing what’s right for their children.”
“Another initiative that we’re coming out with, we’re calling the Childhood Hunger Initiative, where we’re looking to get food here [at schools] for the whole family,” explains

HOT PINK FUN RUN Placer Breast Cancer Foundation’s fundraiser will color downtown Roseville with awareness
O
n the last Sunday of September, the eighth annual Hot Pink Fun Run is hoping to fill the streets with thousands of people dressed to the nines in the illness’ signature awareness color. Up to 1,500 survivors and supporters are anticipated to participate, helping to enable the Placer Breast Cancer Foundation’s mission to promote awareness, further research for a cure, and to support and celebrate survivors.
“This is an event that includes the whole family, everybody comes out,” explains Chairwoman and co-founder Carol Garcia, herself a survivor. “This is really family-oriented and an opportunity for people to celebrate their success with recovery from breast cancer. It’s also a time for people to honor those who may have lost their lives to the disease.” The Placer Breast Cancer Foundation, originally established in 2005 as the Placer Breast Cancer Endowment, was created with the purpose of raising $1.5 million to endow a
Chair at the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center. After reaching that goal in 2014, the charity reorganized, continuing to embrace the objective of educational outreach and research funding. “We’ve revitalized it a bit,” explains Garcia. “Moving forward, our vision continues to fund research through UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center and to educate women on not only breast cancer issues, but health issues in general.” Such vision includes plans for a women’s summit (tentatively planned for next spring), which would tap local health care providers for information on issues such as early detection, available treatment resources, and emerging technology and breakthroughs. To reach such goals, as well as to continue to fund research and outreach efforts, the foundation holds several annual fundraisers, such as the Pink by the Pool party at Thunder Valley Casino and their Hot Pink Fun Run held in downtown Roseville.

”We offer a one mile, the 5K, and the 10K, so if you’re in treatment right now and you can’t walk very far, [you can] do the one-mile,” says Garcia. “This year, for the first time, we’re going to honor our survivors. Before the run, there will be a way that we single them out and recognize them somehow before the run. I’m very excited about what that will look like.” In addition to the running, there will be a variety of other activities and vendors set up at the Civic Center Plaza the day of the race, including food, children’s activities, and local business supporters. “We’ll have vendors out there, we’ll have some of the local salons come out and do pink highlights [for] your hair, we’ll have activities for children, we might be doing a bouncehouse, we’ll have face painting. We’ll have food vendors out there,” says Garcia. “There will be a number of things for families out there. It’s not just about the run, it’s about having fun at the same time.” For those who would like to help, the Placer Breast Cancer Foundation has ample volunteer opportunities from helping plan next year’s race to helping make sure this year’s runs smoothly. “We’re always looking for volunteers to come out and help on the course directing runners and participants. We’re looking for volunteers in the town square that day to help set up, to register, and [at the finish line] when runners come back and to give them their snacks and food,” says Garcia. “There’s always a need for volunteers on that day, handing out water on the course, there’s just a number of things they can do.”

ALL THE WAY FIT Trainer Brandon Daniel can keep you on the healthy path The secret to staying in shape is elegant in its simplicity: there is no secret. There is no magic pill, no gimmicky fad diet, no miraculous, fat-melting, five-minute-a-day move that will keep you healthy. This is fortunately not radical news to most people, particularly those who struggle to maintain a consistent workout regime. At All The Way Fit, owner and personal trainer Brandon Daniel helps clients keep such regimes with ever-changing routines, personalized attention and fun. “You’re more likely to stick with something you enjoy coming to than if you didn’t enjoy it. And that’s probably the main reason why people come in. I make it fun for them, and I think that many people haven’t really worked out in a fun environment,” explains Daniel. “There’s a huge difference if you dread coming in but you still do it, [versus] if you actually enjoy working out. And that’s what I try to do when I create the atmosphere in here. Obviously people are going to have their good days and their bad days, and some people are not going to feel like working out, but it’s my job to get the best out them, as much as I can.”
I’ve been a Personal Trainer for 10 years, I have my degree in Kinesiology from CSUS. I’m the owner and sole trainer at All The Way Fit in Roseville, where I team Small Group Personal Training sessions. It’s a great environment for all fitness levels.
Daniel offers small-group sessions to clients who range in both age and ability, making for an open and encouraging environment that fosters camaraderie. “You can see other people who are struggling as well, so you can feel like you’re not in it alone in a way,” he says. “Or there’re other people who are in really good shape and that motivates

people who aren’t in shape because they aspire to be like that person.” “A lot of them realized that what they were doing on their own wasn’t working,” he adds. “Some people come in having never exercised, some people have exercised on and off, and some people are here for that extra push because maybe they’re bored with their routine at the gym and they just want something different.” What Daniel offers at All The Way Fit is accountability, discipline, and variety, things that are tough to achieve when working out alone. “You’re definitely going to get a more intense work out here just because there’re no breaks, you just keep going and going. You’re going to burn more calories and more fat in a shorter period of time than if you were doing it on your own,” he says. “Every work out here is different; we never do one class that’s exactly the same. I’ve had people that have been with me for three or four years, who have taken 300 or 400 classes with me and have never had two classes exactly the same. I don’t keep any of my work outs, I crumple them up, throw them away, and I write a new work out for the next week.” Brandon Daniel has been helping people get (and stay) on a healthy track for over a decade. Since opening up All The Way Fit nearly two years ago, he has grown from offering
outdoor boot camps and individual training sessions to smallgroup training six days a week at his 2,400 square foot gym in Roseville. His new facility accommodates the wide variety of routines and exercises, including circuit training, weight machines and free weights, while still keeping work outs fun. “We’ll do obstacle courses in here, I’ve done Monopoly classes, ‘Deal or no Deal,’ a zombie run, and we did a superhero obstacle course a few weeks ago where people dressed up as superheroes,” he says. “ A lot of times, people will tell me, ‘gosh, this isn’t anything like I thought it would be when I first came in,’ and it’s different from what they’ve done in the past.” Ultimately, it’s Daniel’s expertise and ability to work with clients of just about any ability level and help them achieve their goals—whether it’s to shed a few pounds or to start exercising after a lifetime of inactivity—that makes him stand out. “I get text messages every now and then from people saying, ‘hey I just wanted to let you know I did a mile jog and I didn’t stop for the first time ever,’ and it’s cool to see small accomplishments,” he says. “Obviously people want to lose 30 or 40 pounds or fit into a size 6, but it’s fun to see small goal and small accomplishments like having more energy or sleeping better at night. So often we see the big picture, but we forget about the small steps that it took to get to that level.”
All The Way Fit recently moved into a larger facility, increasing gym space from 1,200 to 2,400 square feet. The new gym features weight machines, free weights, and other machines, as well as ample space for circuit training. (Courtesy photos)

HEALTH IN VIEW We are fortunate to live in a beautiful area where the weather allows us to be active outdoors year round. We must also think about how all of those bike rides, soccer games, swim meets, hikes, and tennis tournaments add up to a lot of sun exposure. Now that the summer months are here, it’s especially important that we understand the risks of ultraviolet (UV) radiation and how to protect our families and ourselves.
The most common types of skin cancer, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, develop in the top layer of the skin and commonly occur in sun-exposed areas. A surgical procedure is generally curative when caught early.
The melanoma rates are increasing faster in young women than young men, and much of this increase has been attributed to indoor tanning beds since nearly 70 percent of tanning salon patrons are young women. Any use of tanning beds increases one’s lifetime risk of melanoma by over 50 percent. The artificial light sources found in indoor tanning beds emit ultraviolet radiation just like the sun, and in some cases can be stronger. This radiation causes both melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers, ages the skin prematurely, and can cause eye damage such as cataracts.
Melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, is more likely to spread to lymph nodes and organs, making early detec-
Ultraviolet exposure continues to be the most preventable risk factor for skin cancer.
One in five Americans will develop some form of skin cancer in his or her lifetime.

tion and prevention imperative. Melanoma rates have been increasing for the past 30 years — and the increased incidence in young people has been especially alarming. Melanoma is now the most common form of cancer for young adults 25-29 years old, and the second most common form of cancer in ages 15-29.
By Dr. Chris Palkowski
A dermatologist colleague of mine, Sean Doherty, tells me about the numerous skin cancer patients he encounters who lament their youth water skiing at Lake Tahoe or lying in the sun at Folsom Lake covered in baby oil and iodine. “They wish that they had known then what we know now about the sun because of the harm their previous sun exposure has caused them,” Dr. Doherty says. “In addition to causing skin cancer, harmful ultraviolet UV rays contribute to wrinkles and age spots and can cause premature aging.” Thankfully, to keep our families safe and looking good, we don’t have to forgo the outdoor activities we love. We just need to follow a few tips to protect our skin. HERE ARE FOUR THINGS WE CAN DO: • Seek shade whenever possible, especially during the period when the sun’s rays are the strongest, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. • Wear protective clothing including long sleeves, pants, hats, and sunglasses when possible. • Use extra caution near water, snow, and sand since these reflect the damaging UV rays. • Generously apply sunscreen.
Many patients ask their medical providers, which is the best sunscreen? The best sunscreen is one that you will use regularly. Sunscreen is a matter of personal choice, and it comes in many formulations including creams, gels, sticks, and sprays. What’s most important is that the sunscreen be broad spectrum, designed to protect from two types of UV rays, UVA and UVB, harmful to skin. Use sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30. We know that many people do not apply enough sunscreen. The average person needs one ounce, or about the size of a ping pong ball, to cover the exposed areas of their body. Sunscreen needs to be applied 15 minutes before going outdoors and reapplied every two hours. And don’t forget those lips: A lip balm with an SPF 30 or higher will keep them healthy. Next time you plan to go outdoors and enjoy the beautiful weather during these summer months, remember to apply sufficient sunscreen — it can help prevent cancer and keep you looking younger.
