OCTOBER 2014 Light another candle – Enjoy Magazine is eight years old this month! We’re celebrating by sharing another collection of the inspirational articles, magnificent photography and imaginative layouts that you’ve grown to expect from us over the years. Ready to get started?

First, you’ll love the story of South Shasta County Youth Arts, established to fill a void left by budget cuts in performing arts. It provides young musicians and actors with a place to shine, and their upcoming fundraiser will benefit a community member in need.

Looking to add a little touch of autumn to your décor? Our easy, low-cost projects will get you into the spirit. On the fashion side, we have some tips for tapping into fall nail trends – ditch those pink nails and try on some navy, purple, gray or teal. We’ll show you the perfect shades.

We can’t wait for the 10th annual FOCUS Film Festival, presented by Far Northern Regional Center, a nonprofit that helps people with developmental disabilities and their families. The festival’s 30 documentary and narrative films celebrate diversity and inclusion.

And we’re not the only ones celebrating a birthday – KIXE-TV, the North State’s public television station, turns 50 this month. We’ll give you a peek back to when the station flickered to life on a black-and-white signal, and share what’s in store for the future.

Finally, we have some news that we are just bursting with excitement to share – we’ll be launching “Enjoy Magazine: South Valley Living” in Kings and Tulare counties in mid-October, along with another Enjoy the Store in Visalia. We can’t wait to share the feel-good stories about the people and places that make that area unique – and if our experience up here is any indication, we’re sure that these inspirational stories will be welcomed with open arms.

Thank you, Northern California, for eight magical years. We’ve only just begun!

“ENJOY THE JOURNEY.” This father-to-son advice has evolved into a life philosophy for former North State athlete Brody Angley.

Since graduating from Enterprise High School in 2004, the 5’11” point guard has played basketball on teams in 13 countries, including Mexico, Switzerland and Poland.

Along the way, he’s accumulated a lengthy list of accolades, including top point guard in Latin America, and his teams have consistently won league championships.

He continues to maintain a sizeable fan base in the North State, from family and friends to former teammates and coaches – and a contingent of them can’t wait to make the trek to Sacramento to see Angley’s new team,

the Maccabi Bazan Haifa Basketball Club of Israel, take on the Sacramento Kings on Oct. 18 at Sleep Train Arena.

“He’s the best athlete I’ve had in 22 years of coaching,” said Enterprise High School Athletic Director Mike Worley, who described Angley as a humble and inspirational workhorse with an impeccable work ethic.

“I would do anything for Brody.”

At Enterprise, Angley was a four-time league MVP, two-time section MVP and all-state selection who led his team to four basketball section championships and two state semifinal appearances. He still holds the school record for career points (1,873).4 continued on page 16

When he wasn’t lighting up the scoreboard on the basketball court, he was tearing up the football field — he set a Northern Section career rushing record with 4,748 yards as a running back, and he still holds the section’s records for most career points (533) and touchdowns (75), according to MaxPreps’ Senior Writer Kevin Askeland.

Though Angley enjoyed record-setting success on the football field, basketball was always his favorite sport. “I probably started playing competitively in the second grade,” he says. “Although I enjoyed playing other sports and still do, basketball has always been my first love.”

After graduating from high school, Angley played for Santa Clara University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in economics in 2008.

He was part of the West Coast Conference’s all-conference first team (he was honorable mention as a junior, and made the West Coast Conference’s all-freshman team).

“I never thought I would have an opportunity to continue playing,” he says. “After I graduated from Santa Clara, I was contacted by a few agencies and thought it would be a great experience. Before I made that decision, I never would have thought playing would have taken me to 19 different countries … I try to embrace the experience and immerse myself in the culture as best I can, because living conditions vary by country.”

Even as a teenager, Angley was known as a tenacious, humble and level-headed athlete who was cool under pressure. “Choices, morals and values, people, environment, mannerisms, differences — there are endless variables that can affect you or those around you, so I make an effort to see the big picture and to keep an open mind about things,” he says.

16 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

That includes staying in touch with his roots. When he’s home, he stops by Enterprise High to work out. “I usually run into old coaches there and catch up with them,” he says. “I wish I was better at staying in contact because I have always felt I can turn to any of my old coaches for advice, and a lot of their coaching I still use today.”

And his blood is still Hornet black and gold. Among his alma mater’s universal mottos to which he still adheres: “We, not me.” “No excuses, no messengers, no sympathy groups.” “Not too high on the highs, not too low on the lows.” “You have an obligation to the past and responsibility to the future.” Thirteen years after graduation, he still has a list that coach Clay Erro asked players to compile of five things they want to do better in life.

He’s an intensely loyal family guy who enjoys time with girlfriend Alicia Schmidt and dog Rvca. When he’s home, he’s likely spending time with his mom, Angelina; older sister, Rochelle; younger sister, Robyn Johnson and her husband Lucas; and nephew, Taylor AngleyHolman, an accomplished former Enterprise High School athlete in his own right.

Still at the center of his heart is his father, Jamie, who died of cancer in 2007. “My dad has always been my inspiration. He has always been the man I wish and will always strive to be,” he says.

And heeding his dad’s evergreen advice, Angley continues to enjoy the journey. •

ANTHROPOLOGIST MARGARET MEAD ONCE SAID that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens could change the world, that indeed it is the only thing that ever has.

For the folks behind the grassroots movement Growing Resourcefully Uniting Bellies (GRUB) Chico, the seeds of local change were planted in early 2007 as a handful of young visionaries bicycled toward a sustainability conference in Santa Barbara.

“During the trip they griped to each other about the state of the

world,” says Stephanie Elliott, executive director of the GRUB education program. “After hearing about gardening at the conference, they started thinking about what they could do to make a difference.”

Upon returning to Chico, the group put together gardening presentations for the local Boys & Girls Club and area preschools.

They also set aside “open hours” for interested community members to talk about gardening and share locally grown foods.4 continued on page 20

OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 19

A LOT OF OUR WORK IS DONE BY VOLUNTEERS WHO HAVE A PASSION FOR GOOD FOOD AND THE OUTDOORS.

Soon they were sorting and packing the harvest from backyard gardens into boxes and making home deliveries by bike. When they were offered a lease on some property in 2008, Elliott says the growers were finally able to consolidate their efforts and concentrate on farming in one place.

It was also in 2008, after meeting GRUB members at the Chico Peace and Justice Center, that Elliott started volunteering at the farm. With a background in child development, she was soon writing grants so the group could expand its school outreach. A grant from First 5 California enabled her and a GRUB partner to create 10 preschool gardens and tend to them weekly for two years.

“We installed the garden and brought curriculum ideas, books, seeds to sort and just tried to have fun with nature,” says Elliott. “Many of the children were unaware of where their food came from or how it grew. Our goal was to make everything in the garden edible, so they would try it.”

20 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

As the vision expanded, the GRUB Education Program became a 501(c)3 nonprofit and the Community Supported Agriculture Farm became a private enterprise, supported by members who invest financially in the farm for its April – December season and in return receive a weekly share of its bounty.

While the farm seeks to promote sustainable agriculture, reconnecting people to the food they eat and fostering a relationship between the farm and those it nourishes, the GRUB Education Program focuses on community education via public gardens, workshops and school visits.

“As part of a cultivating grant, we established more than 30 community gardens, varying in size and location,” says Elliott. “The most successful were those installed in areas where there was already a high concentration of people present, like apartment complexes.” Program volunteers have also installed gardens in Paradise and Oroville.4 continued on page 22

Plot rental is a model of community gardening that has proved successful in many areas, says Elliott. “The buy-in helps with commitment and when you get these plot projects going, the (community) collaboration kind of trickles in.”

The GRUB organization used a second grant on specialty crops from the USDA to fund a certified mobile bike kitchen for its cooking demonstrations. “We would show people how to grow food, but many would then ask, ‘Now what do I do with it?’” says Elliott.

“The purpose of the bike kitchen was to demonstrate how to make quick, delicious and nutritious snacks, the idea being to go from garden to plate.”

Elliott has applied for another USDA grant this year, which she hopes will expand the number of GRUB community gardens and educational opportunities.

“Our funding is minimal,” she adds. “We operate on a small budget, offering what we can, when we can. A lot of our work is done by volunteers who have a passion for good food and the outdoors.” • grubchico.org • (530) 354-1646

SOUND FROM THE

OT I S W I L L I A M S : B L E N D I N G PA S T W I T H P R E S E N T

AN ESSENTIAL COMPONENT of the record label Motown, The Temptations began their musical life in Detroit.

It was in 1964 that the Smokey Robinson song, “The Way You Do the Things You Do,” turned them into stars.

An avalanche of hits followed, many of which achieved lasting fame: “My Girl,” “It’s Growing,” “Since I Lost My Baby,” “Get Ready,” “Too Proud to Beg,” “Beauty Is Only Skin Deep,” “I Wish It Would Rain” and so many others.

As things grew more political, The Temptations got more serious, changing their tone and lyrics with songs like “Runaway Child,” “Cloud Nine,” “I Can’t Get Next to You,” “Papa Was a Rolling Stone” and “Psychedelic Shack.”

While the group’s line-up has changed constantly over the decades, 72-year-old founding member Otis Williams has remained with the band throughout its 54 years.

Williams began singing in the church choir in his hometown of Texarkana, Texas. His mother later took him to Detroit to live with her and his stepfather, and he begin attending rock and roll shows at the Fox Theatre, including Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers.

When he saw Lymon and the “control” he had on more than 5,000 people at a concert, he said to himself, “That’s what I want to do.”

Williams later became part of “The Distants,” who recorded “Come On/Always” on Specialty Records in 1959.

“The Distants” would later reorganize, calling themselves “The Elgins” and auditioning for Motown record producer Berry Gordy.

Gordy signed the “classic five” of Williams, Melvin Franklin, Paul Williams, Eddie Kendricks and David Ruffin, with the stipulation that they would rename themselves “The Temptations.”

Their music became the soundtrack of America’s changing tide and helped open the gates for black entertainers to achieve racial crossover appeal.

“We used to walk into restaurants in parts of the south after performing there and they wouldn’t serve us,” recalls Williams.

“There would be ropes dividing the auditoriums that we were performing in. Blacks would be on one side of the aisle and whites on the other. Later, we’d returned to some of those same places, and blacks and whites would be sitting side by side enjoying the music.”

Today’s lineup consists of Williams, Ron Tyson, Terry Weeks, Joe Herndon and Bruce Williamson.

“I tell people we are God’s group,” he says, “I don’t4 continued on page 26

mean it arrogantly. It’s just that we have been tested time and time again and keep coming back. We have suffered the deaths of so many of our legendary singers: Paul Williams, David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Melvin Franklin. Others like Dennis Edwards, Richard Street, Ali-Ollie Woodson and Theo Peoples have left, and yet our unity is tighter, our sound brighter and our popularity greater. Someone has watched over this group. Someone has protected our integrity. Someone has said, ‘Just go on singing and it’ll get better.’

“Our challenge has been to live in the present while respecting the past. Our past is filled with riches only a fool would discard. At the same time, we thrive on competition. As a Motowner, I grew up in the most competitive musical atmosphere imaginable. But we also understand that for a group with history, no matter how glorious that history might be, reinvention is the name of the game.”

During the group’s prestigious career, they’ve spawned 14 number one R&B records, won three Grammy awards and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Adds Williams, “Our success has a lot to do with our ability to be in tune with the times, but resist the urge to chase trends. We kept up on what other acts were doing

but tried to make each song uniquely our own. Not too many of the groups we came up with could make the transition from doo-wop to social and politically conscious songs.”

The group has always been dedicated to doing what it takes to survive. “Music is forever changing, and to be able to adapt to whatever the popular genre of music is at that moment has been an awesome feeling,” he says.

“Fortunately, we’ve always had multi-layered voices in the group that can sing any genre of music. So whatever is called for us to sing, we can do. That has always been the strong suit for The Temptations.” • Friday, October 24, Cascade Theatre www.cascadetheatre.org

WINK W I N K FA S H I O N B O U T I Q U E A N D S A LO N I N R E D B L U F F RED BLUFF'S POPULAR FASHION BOUTIQUE AND salon, now in its fifth year, wasn’t a long-yearned-for dream of its owners, Sarah Rider and Sophia Swarthout.

Rather, it’s the culmination of a sudden idea that was jumped on and worked towards quickly rather than casually tossed aside in another case of “If only...”

The entrepreneurs met at swim practice and began chatting as their kids put in laps for Sun Oaks Aquatic Racing. Rider and a friend from Napa were having a clothes party at her home and invited Swarthout to attend.

The ensuing conversation started ideas popping. What if neither of them needed to leave Red Bluff to find styles they liked? What if Rider could give up the commute as a writing instructor at Butte and Shasta colleges, as well as Chico State? What if Swarthout’s sister, Amber, could

have a space to do hair? What if they changed things up in their lives a bit?

The conversation started in July. “By August, we just sort of worked things out,” says Swarthout. “Everything just fell in line.”

By “falling in line,” she means that they opened the doors to Wink Fashion and Salon with collected furniture from their homes and display cases created by repurposing old items. “Everything looks a little funky in there,” says Rider.

“When we started out, we just wanted a place to shop in Red Bluff,” she adds. “We barely knew each other. We just thought, ‘Well, why not?’ Why not at least try?”4 continued on page 32

Their instincts were guided by their personal tastes in clothes, a taste Rider describes as an appreciation for “things that were classic but also things that were more of the moment.”

They were also guided by an understanding of their individual strengths. “I’m the leftbrain person. I do all the books,” says Swarthout, who holds an accounting degree from Cal Poly. “Sarah’s the right brain person. She does all the fashion and the creative stuff.”

Five years later, downtown Red Bluff has begun to flourish, and more boutiques have opened. The two welcome their neighbors and say their focus has changed to the bigger picture of a vibrant downtown community. “It’s not just Wink, it’s downtown,” says Rider. “Let’s bring everyone in. It’s a win-win.”

That shift in focus has brought effort to mentoring two young students who work at Wink and hope to enter the fashion industry. It’s seen the evolution of their popular annual fashion show to a larger event that occurs twice a year and encompasses multiple downtown boutiques and their owners.

It’s meant taking on coordination of the annual veterans’ appreciation breakfast and supporting the Mr. Spartan competition at

Red Bluff High School.

It’s also meant bringing in their own kids. Swarthout’s youngest son now does ad Although the endeavor has undergone its ups layouts for the business.

“I would never do this myself,” says Swarthout. “It’s what we’ve created together.”

public relations K I X E C E L E B R AT E S 5 0 Y E A R S KIXE-TV, THE NORTH STATE’S public television station, is turning 50 this month and while it’s marking the big milestone with a yearlong celebration, it’s also looking back at its past to prepare for the future.

“This station was founded by volunteers to provide educational TV and that’s the heart of it: volunteers and education,” says Michelle Slade, KIXE’s development director. “The goal was to take education beyond the classroom and to the people outside that age group, and the community really rallied.”

That rally began Oct. 5, 1964, when Channel 9 flickered to life with a snowy black-and-white signal that delivered classroom programs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays.

Some 40 schools signed up and chipped in a combined $17,000 for the resource.

Today, KIXE broadcasts around the clock on three channels, sending out to parts of 10 counties a lively mix of programs that educate, enlighten and entertain: everything from Big Bird to Beethoven, Downton Abbey to NewsHour and Sherlock to Sesame Street.

“Thankful” is the term General Manager Michael Lampella repeatedly returns to when reflecting on KIXE’s half-century of being on the air, and that gratitude extends to the visionaries in the mid-1950s who laid the groundwork for a noncommercial educational TV station a full 10 years before Channel 9 became a reality.

“To see the support continue throughout the North State—people giving a few dollars, and sometimes more than a few, and volunteering—it comes down to one focal point: people really love their local PBS station,” Lampella says.4

continued on page 36

OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 35

The station will spend a year returning the favor, starting on Sunday, Oct. 4, with a 7 p.m. screening of a new, locally produced program on KIXE’s history. Throughout the following week, the public is invited to schedule a tour of the station’s North Market Street studio and offices.

Lampella hopes people will admire the new flooring, the cheery interior color scheme, new energy-efficient LED lights throughout and the new exterior paint—all the results of partnerships with local businesses that want the station to remain a vital part of the community.

To capitalize on its 50th anniversary, the station is providing individuals, organizations and service clubs the opportunity to be associated with KIXE by sponsoring individual rooms. The sponsor’s name will be featured on a plaque along with KIXE’s anniversary logo. Can’t afford a room? Consider investing anywhere from $40 to $300 in an etched tile that will become a part of the permanent Community Wall.

People also can invest in what KIXE puts on the air, Slade says. “We want to produce more local programs; we want to make an impact on our community, and we’re looking for individuals and groups interested in doing that.”

Channel 9 continues to invest in the community through its programming, and the station is using momentum surrounding the anniversary to reinvigorate revitalize its education mission—especially for its youngest viewers.

“Channel 9 is a great learning tool to have in the home,” Slade says.

“You can learn how to be a friend, how to count, how to read … the TV is an easy tool to turn on.” Providing a safe harbor and over-the-air access to educational programs is especially vital, given that so much of KIXE’s coverage area is so remote and lightly populated that many 36 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

daycare providers and parents just don’t have access to or can’t afford conventional preschool resources.

“Education is what we really are. There’s a big underserved population and we fill that need,” Slade says. “With an education, you have more opportunity to be a viable part of the community and more options for work,” Lampella notes.

KIXE is keeping learning fun, thanks in part to a revamped Kids Club that will treat member families to annual parties in Redding (Redding Soccer Park) and Chico (FunLand/Cal Skate) and book giveaways in partnership with Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).

With support from First 5 Shasta, the station will begin hosting monthly storytelling sessions that will feature firefighters, weather forecasters and other guest speakers. Every child who attends will leave with a copy of the book that was shared during the session.

Grants from Head Start, First 5, the Redding Rancheria Community Fund and the Scripps Foundation have allowed KIXE to expand its literacy outreach programs, including the donation of 50 books to each library in Shasta and Trinity counties.

“In the next 50 years, those we’re educating will be our leaders,” notes Slade. “We’re really excited about what the future holds. We’re all reenergized. There’s a life here that feels like it was at the beginning.” • www.kixe.org

I am a third generation Redding native.

Leanne and I have been married for fifteen years and we’re the proud parents of four children. Eleven years ago we returned home to raise them in this wonderful community. We live just down the street from where I grew up.

In 2007, the Great Recession hit. Times were tough, but wishing things would turn out alright wasn’t going to get us through this crisis. I developed a strategic plan and, with my management team, set up the business for long-term success. We’ve grown from 7 employees to more than 40.

I’ve spent the last year walking through neighborhoods and learning about the issues Redding residents care most about. Together we will rise to meet these challenges by thinking strategically, working together and employing sound judgment when making critical decisions.

Books are the Sweetest Treat

“A

s an active grandmother, there is nothing more precious than the time I spend holding a child on my lap and reading a book.

Snuggling and exploring colors, shapes, sounds, and language – we’re discovering together! To me, this is the sum of all things good about life.

“Reading just 20 minutes a day with a child helps build essential language and literacy skills. And science has shown us that lap reading stimulates connection of neural pathways in the brain that guide learning and behavior. In Shasta County, nearly half of incoming kindergartners are not ‘reading ready.’ Knowing that reading proficiency is associated with student success, it is important for agencies and literacy efforts serving children to get on the same page to improve literacy levels. The very best place to start is with our little ones.”

Judy Salter

Passionate reader and grandmother of 6

By sharing a book, you can support the early literacy skills children need when they start kindergarten. In kindergarten, children are learning to read. By third grade, they are reading to learn. They will rely on this skill for the rest of their lives. That’s why Judy Salter and First 5 Shasta are part of the Shasta Early Literacy Partnership (SELP) dedicated to boosting early literacy. Both SELP and First 5 Shasta distribute thousands of books each year to children, making sure they have treats on hand all year round.

Halloween offers a unique opportunity to give children something meaningful.

Although the traditional treat is candy, First 5 Shasta proposes switching it up!

Families can include a stop at a Little Free Library for a free book treat. Find a map to these friendly neighborhood book

kiosks at www.first5shasta.org/lflibraries.

If you’re opening your door to a fairy princess, swashbuckling pirate or equally glamorous or spooky little creature, why not share the sweetest treat of all? Hand out an inexpensive children’s book and make a lasting positive impact in the life of a young child.

First 5 Shasta is building a pathway to success for young children. As stewards of Proposition 10 tobacco tax revenues, they invest over $1 million each year in quality programs, services, and activities that better the lives of Shasta County’s youngest residents. First 5 Shasta investments combined with the contributions of community members are making the pathway strong. Get involved: www.first5shasta.org

SHOW TIME

| BY KIMBERLY BONÉY

THE BOY WAS RIDDLED WITH NERVOUSNESS as he waited for the curtain to open. He took a deep breath, was suddenly enveloped by calmness and transformed before the eyes of an awestruck crowd. He shed his layers of shyness and left it all on the stage, and the room erupted in cheers and jubilation.

This is the experience of many a performance artist. Some of the world’s most accomplished singers, dancers, musicians and thespians are often some of the most shy people off stage. They aren’t the athletes in the spotlight or the effortlessly popular kids who seem to stop time when they enter a room. These performance artists are wildly creative, introspective and often crave a sense of belonging that isn’t always offered to them in the realm of traditional education.

This notion was the impetus for the creation of the South Shasta County Children’s Choir. Founded in 2009 by Nancy Dutton, Amy Hughes and Deborah Divine for Shasta County students in grades 2- 8, the choir filled a void left by budget cuts in performing arts for students at the elementary and middle school levels.4

In 2011, the choir joined forces with the performing arts booster clubs of schools in the Anderson Union High School District, including Anderson Union High School, West Valley High School, and Anderson New Technology High School. This umbrella program would encompass students from age 6-18 with a passion for performing arts. And so, South Shasta County Youth Arts (SSCYA) was born, acquired its 501(c)3 nonprofit status, and began giving young, local performing artists a place to shine.

“There are performing arts students in our area that didn’t really have anything to call their own, and this organization has become that for them,” says Becky Roe, Board President of SSCYA. The SSCYA is a fun, creative and passion-filled environment which nurtures young singers, dancers, musicians and actors, with diversity in age and performance experience. But something more has come out of this union - a unique opportunity for growth, leadership, mentorship and selflessness for everyone involved.

Aside from the incredible performances coming from this talented group of 200-250 performers, Roe says what is most inspiring is the system of support SSCYA has created in the students. It’s seeing schools that are traditionally considered “rivals” join forces and become a part of a close-knit family that extends past performing arts students to reach out to so many others.

“It’s seeing those high school students who have been a part of the program mentoring the younger ones. You don’t hear that about teenagers often enough. They are taking their time – whether they are helping backstage or with vocal, dance or acting coaching – to help others. They are fully invested. At that age, their worlds can be very small. So to see them step out of themselves, it’s incredible. They are learning how to be leaders within their peer groups. They are becoming better prepared for the world. They are making plans and decisions,” Roe says.

One of the first decisions that SSCYA students made was to create Play It Forward, a fundraiser intended to help a community member or organization in need. The first beneficiary was one of their own, Raven Chavez, a former student of Anderson High School’s choir program that was severely injured after a major car accident. The event began organically in 2012, as the students saw an opportunity to be kind to someone else and stepped up.

This act of selflessness was a providential start to one of the annual events the students are most passionate about.

The kids are always on the lookout for who they can help with their now annual benefit concert.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Cleo is one of our Native patients that we featured in the October 2013 issue of Enjoy. She was diagnosed with stage one cancer when a mass was found in her right breast. After surgery, radiation and medication, we are ecstatic to report a victorious year and she is cancer free. She proved to be more powerful than the opposing forces of cancer. In November she will be released back to the care of her primary care physician and continue routine mammograms and medications. Her time spent with Jennifer, Greenville Rancheria’s Community Health Representative, was not an interview, or just another person, but two friends laughing as if they were having a tea party. Cleo’s smile, attitude, strong beliefs and continuous support of family and friends has proven to be a great example, a success story for not only Natives but all ethnicities. She commented that if you do what you’re supposed to do, routine breast exams and mammograms, and have a positive attitude, you too can “PREVAIL”!

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the U.S. Based on an American Cancer Society article in 2013 there were approximately 232,340 new cases of invasive breast cancer, and 39,620 breast cancer deaths. In this article one in eight women were predicted to

develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Excluding skin cancer, breast cancer is expected to be the most common cancer diagnosed among every racial and ethnic group. The data on breast cancer in Native Americans is limited because not all Native American communities are part of a cancer registry, and Native Americans are not always identified as such on health forms.

Also, Native Americans have a low participation rate in any type of cancer clinical trials or research. The risk of breast cancer for Native American women is becoming a growing concern. Within the last few generations, cancer has become the leading cause of death for Alaska Native women and is the second leading cause of death among American Indian women.

The good news is that Native American women have among the lowest incidence rates of breast cancer of the major ethnic groups. But the survival rate is poor due to the lack of access to health care, early detection, lack of health insurance, healthcare access and cultural differences in communication and discussing diseases. Screening regularly and education may save lives. Survival is based on early detection, diagnosis and treatment. One should watch for risks factors, risk reduction through routine breast exams every year starting at age 20, and mammograms annually starting at age 40.

It’s no wonder that the students of SSCYA are passionate about using their talents to serve others. It’s an example that has been set for them in the innumerable selfless – and unpaid – acts of the teachers, directors, consultants and board members involved with SSCYA. Countless other students, parents, teachers and community volunteers have donated inordinate amounts of time to this organization. The collective payoff can be seen in the performances and can be felt through the familial bond and the overriding, far-reaching joy of the students – a joy that comes from having a sense of “home.” And for everyone involved with SSCYA, that payoff is priceless.

9 T H A N N U A L M A K E A D I F F E R E N C E LO B S T E R F E E D IF YOUR IMAGE OF A LOBSTER DINNER INCLUDES an intimate, candlelit table in a darkened restaurant, the folks at Pacific Farms and Northern Valley Catholic Social Service (NVCSS) want you to know that there’s a different way to enjoy the succulent crustacean. Even better, the money you put out for the meal will support important human needs in Tehama County.

The 9th Annual Make a Difference Lobster Feed, to be held October 25 at Pacific Farms in Gerber, will be a community affair where guests will don plastic bibs at tables set up under a tent and reach for lobsters, prawns, artichokes, corn, potatoes and Louisiana hot links in a style similar to a traditional southern crawfish boil.

John Sorensen of Sorensen Catering makes the trek from the Napa Valley each year to cook for the event, for which enthusiasts have learned to buy tickets months in advance. Alain Teutschmann of Mount Tehama winery in Manton will be on hand to serve his sustainably developed Rhone varietals made from hand-picked grapes.

“People love it,” says Camilla Delsid, director of the NVCSS programs in Tehama County. “It’s kind of messy, but it’s fun.”

Delsid looks forward to expanding NVCSS offerings in Tehama County with the fundraiser, including the launch of a Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program.

NVCSS operates CASA in Shasta and Butte Counties, and, with the creation of a special Blue Ribbon Commission led by Tehama County’s juvenile court judge, Matt McGlynn, is entering a well-timed era to start services in Tehama.

“We need to raise much of the funds on our own,” says Delsid, who hopes people will enjoy this unique opportunity to support CASA’s work to advocate for youth in the foster system.

Delsid also looks forward to expanding programs for seniors. “The elderly are kind4 continued on page 46

of living in the shadows in terms of programs,” she says. “So many of our seniors have very poor nutritional habits.” With increased funds, the agency wants to develop a program that brings visitors into seniors’ homes to help them make nutrient-rich freezer meals that will last a month between visits.

Pacific Farms, the proprietors of Pacific Sun Olive Oil, hosts the lobster feed through owner Jane Flynn’s long-time support of NVCSS as a board member. Flynn first experienced a similar event at the Abbey of New Clairvaux.

“It was such a fascinating event that I thought it would be something we could do in Red Bluff,” she says. In its first year, Flynn and family hosted the lobster feed on the heels of their annual end-of-harvest celebration so they could extend the use of the rental equipment they needed to host their staff.

Flynn came across some skepticism that anyone would want to enjoy lobster at a farm shop. The idea took root, however, and after a few tries in subsequent years at the fairgrounds, people requested a return to the farm. “For whatever reason, they thought being in a farm shop was more fun than anything,” she laughs.

Maybe it’s the ambiance of walnut and prune trees that surround the shop. Maybe it’s the freedom of being released from the confines of a refined area; it’s not a big deal if something drops from the table.

Or maybe it’s just the pure joy of relaxing into a high-end meal in a completely casual, no pressure, communal manner.

“We get to share some of the oil making during the event, too, which is interesting to quite a few people,” says Flynn, noting that the event is held as olive oil season is starting up. Guests become privy to the process that turns local olives into award-winning artisan olive oil.

It matters not whether you attend for the food or the cause or the curiosity of the workings of a Tehama County farm and olive oil producer. The Make a Difference Lobster Feed will be a fulfilling evening on many levels. No tie required. • Make a Difference Lobster Feed Saturday, Oct. 25 Pacific Farms, Gerber $85, includes beer and wine Starts at 4:30pm; dinner served at 5:30pm Tickets: (530) 247-3340 or www.nvcss.org

FA R N O R T H E R N REGIONAL CENTER’S F O C U S F I L M F E S T I VA L

THOUGH SHE HAS ALWAYS LOVED FILM, Mary Ann Weston didn’t dare dream that coordinating a film festival would someday become part of her job. At Far Northern Regional Center, where she serves in community relations and advocacy support, her job consists of connecting with the community to provide support and services for people with developmental disabilities and their families. It’s a long way from Hollywood.

But when another regional center hosted a small film festival centering on documentaries about people with disabilities, her interest piqued. It was possible, after all, to blend her organization’s services with entertainment she loved. Even better, she could provide value to her community by doing so.

Ten years ago, her dream and the first FOCUS Film Festival debuted at the Cascade Theatre in Redding. With fewer than 10 film submissions to choose from and fewer than 100 people attending, Mary Ann knew the festival was a leap of faith but forged ahead, believing time and momentum would build this unique event and find an audience. This year’s festival, to be held Oct. 23-25 in Chico, will include 30 feature and short films and expect to entertain more than 2,000 moviegoers.

For the first five years, the festival focused on films about disabilities which she describes as mostly documentary stories showing “accurate and honest portrayals of people with disabilities.” About three years4 continued on page 50 OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 49

“THE FILM FORMAT HELPS BUILD UNDERSTANDING SO WE BECOME BETTER FRIENDS, COLLEAGUES AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS”

ago, Weston connected with the Office of Diversity and Inclusion at Chico State University who work to provide a welcoming campus environment where students, faculty and staff can succeed and thrive.

Expanding the festival to include a wider spectrum of social issues made sense. “Our community is a circular group,” she says. “Often, we have a less than complete understanding about another group. These ‘fringe’ groups, let’s call them, could use more understanding to be brought into the fold.” The Chico campus now serves as the primary venue where films are shown.

The festival offers both entertainment and education. “This is a great family event, with current films that also happen to inform the community about diversity,” says Weston. Besides that, it’s fast becoming well-known for its quality films, lively follow-up discussions and accessibility for film artists. Submissions now number closer to 50 or 60. “And that’s without advertising,” she says. “A selection committee spends more hours than you can imagine screening each film.” A few are chosen to show, and four will eventually earn awards such as Best of Festival and a modest financial prize. Besides the short films, the festival slates another 25 to 30 films for its regular programming.

50 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

Tray Robinson, director of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion and festival host, says the festival is important to the community because inclusivity needs to be discussed. “We’re becoming more diverse and if we can better understand where people are coming from, we can become better collaborators and supporters of each other. The film format helps build understanding so we become better friends, colleagues and community members.”

As for Weston, it’s her love of film and the chance to share that people are all more alike than different that motivates her to put in the long hours it takes to bring the festival to fruition. “We’re all striving for otherness, but we have so much that makes us human and the same.

Whatever that otherness is, the festival celebrates it.” • Festival website: www.farnorthernrc.org/focusfilmfestival

The wilderness is crisscrossed with the deer trails and the abandoned roads of adventuresome loggers and miners. Small towns appear, witnesses to the passing history. The wind blows through the stands of timber, awaiting new explorers.

Over this sea of trees are cast the future hopes of the State of Jefferson Trade Route.

The route came to life through the momentary ponderings of Yreka Police Chief Brian Bowles, as he wished there was a road stretching from Yreka to the ocean where he could drive to the coast. “We heard his thoughts and jumped in with both feet,” says Jeff Strutz, vice president of the Siskiyou County Off-Road Riders. “Ever since, we have had so much support.

The State of Jefferson Trade Route would provide another door to the camping, fishing and magnificent scenery of Northern California. Existing campgrounds and the small cities along the route provide an infrastructure for a three-day journey to the coast.

TREES

Vanishing act B R I N G I N G L A S S E N ’ S A S P E N S B AC K F R O M T H E B R I N K

ASPEN TREES IN THE WEST are doing a slow fade.

During the past century, stands have lost trees or disappeared entirely.

Lassen National Forest is helping the pale-bark trees with rustling leaves regain ground in Northern California.

“I find they are doing an exceptional job,” says Dale Bartos, retired aspen ecologist with the U.S. Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station in Logan, Utah. “I wish a lot of other forests were half as aggressive as they are.”

Ryan Burnett, Sierra Nevada group director of Point Blue Conservation Science, describes Lassen’s aspen restoration as a learning laboratory for California. Other land managers are using lessons from Lassen to help their aspen.

“It’s a great story of restoring an important habitat,” Burnett says.

Aspen are known for brilliant fall leaves that pop against the evergreen backdrop of the forest. But what’s at stake goes beyond their golden moment in autumn.

Helping aspen isn’t so much about saving trees as it is protecting a valuable forest community.

The trees make up about 1 percent of the Northeastern California forest – a sliver of area with a disproportionate

variety of plants and wildlife, notes Bobette Jones, ecologist for Lassen’s Eagle Lake Ranger District.

“There is an abundant and diverse understory of different grasses and sedges and flowering plants,” Jones says. The botanical mix draws birds, butterflies, deer and other creatures to aspen stands.

Ten million acres of aspen in the West have dwindled to less than 4 million acres, according to the Forest Service.

In Rocky Mountain states, where more of the forest is aspen, helping the trees has been a focus since the 1980s, Jones says. Lassen National Forest began its aspen efforts 15 years ago. A survey revealed 6 percent of its stands were dead, and of those living, 80 percent were in a high state of decline. Trees suffered from intensive livestock grazing in the 1890s to 1930s and decades of wildfire suppression, Jones says. Without fire, conifers overtake aspen.

“Once they rise above aspen, they shade it out,” Jones says.

The strategy to help? Logging. Lassen National Forest is bringing sunlight to aspen by removing conifers near them. Aspen react quickly, sending up shoots from roots to make new trees.

Point Blue Conversation Science monitors aspen stands where conifers have been logged, checking for 104

“Aspen are known for brilliant fall leaves that pop against the evergreen backdrop of the forest.”

bird species that use aspen habitat for food, shelter or nesting. There’s been no decline in the aspen-associated birds, and seven of the 10 species improved significantly, Burnett says.

“The birds have really responded positively, more than we would have expected,” he says.

Conifers have been removed at 126 aspen stands— about 18 percent of the forest’s stands, Jones says. The effort, which includes environmental review prior to tree removal, continues.

“Our goal is to treat every aspen stand that needs it,” Jones says.

Aspen decline also is a concern at Lassen Volcanic National Park.

“Many of the stands I work with in the park have very, very few live trees left,” says Calvin Farris, park service fire ecologist.

An area near Manzanita Lake that once had thousands of aspen trees now has only dozens. Conifers are so thick that visitors don’t see the aspen, Farris says.

Fire was discouraged in the park for nearly 100 years. While aspen can grow from seed, their primary reproduction is by sprouting – and fire triggers sprouting.

Aspen trees burn readily, but their roots—if the fire isn’t too hot – survive. And with a root system already in place, the shoots grow with vigor, getting a jump start on conifers.

“With most conifers it takes several years to get 10 feet tall. Aspen can get 10 feet tall in a couple of years,” Farris says.

62 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

Lassen Park’s Northwest Gateway Forest Restoration to reduce fuel loads has been a boost to aspen near Manzanita Lake campground. Stands that seemed mostly dead started sprouting after firs were thinned earlier this year, Farris says.

Aspen also are popping up as a result of the 2012 Reading Fire.

“A lot of area the Reading Fire burned in the park hadn’t burned in a century,” Farris says. “The last major disturbance was the volcano itself – the mudflow and pyroclastic blast.”

The lightning-sparked fire was allowed to burn, but it escaped the park and became a 28,079-acre blaze threatening the community of Old Station.

“It wasn’t what the park wanted, to have the fire grow beyond the desired boundary, but ecologically there were a number of benefits of the fire,” Farris says.

As the forest rebounds, park visitors will see more aspen, he says. The trees are making a strong comeback in Hat Creek Drainage.

“I see it sprouting up in areas that I didn’t realize there were trees left,” Farris says. • Lassen National Forest, www.fs.usda.gov/lassen Lassen Volcanic National Park, www.nps.gov/lavo Laura Christman is a freelance writer in Redding.

NO ONE WAKES UP ONE DAY SUDDENLY A SENIOR. It takes staying power and tenacity to earn the title and its prize wisdom, the kind of wisdom that Someone Asked You (SAY) Project founder Michele Queiser believes will benefit younger generations.

“Our elders are passing and with them so are the answers to what is ailing some of our youth,” Queiser says. “These folks are our historians and they can show the younger generation that everything old is new again.”

After spending two decades as an activity director at retirement communities throughout Northern California, Queiser found herself at a crossroads after a work-related injury. “I accepted that I could no longer facilitate activities,” she says, “but I needed to continue with the communication aspect of what I used to do. I knew I could bring the generations together for learning and enrichment.”

Thus was born the SAY Project, which seeks to preserve the life lessons, stories and historical remembrances of the older generation.

Set topics include wisdom, work, war and wedding as well as the elder experience and perspective on historical events.

Interviews are conducted within participating retirement communities mostly by those who are school- or college-aged, but4 continued on page 66

OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 65

Queiser plans to broaden the scope to include multi-generational families and members of the general community. She is quick to add, “I have had companies that have sent older volunteers and it has been equally good.”

Interviewers receive a toolkit that includes a recorder with memory card, iPad tablet for written transcription and a packet with step-by-step interview instructions and thoughtprovoking suggested questions. The SAY project provides the needed coaching.

“We see so many young people who do not know how to stay married getting divorced or who have difficulty parenting,” says Queiser. “The seniors offer simple, practical wisdom in these areas.”

Each participant receives a free CD of the recorded interview and Queiser is working to get the SAY archive included in the Library of Congress.

A 501(c)3 nonprofit organization inspired in part by StoryCorps, SAY hosts several ongoing events designed to foster intergenerational interaction in a relaxed, inviting atmosphere.

At Legacy Lunches, with their “history comes to life” theme, younger participants meet with a panel of elders who share what it was like to experience a historical event (such as Pearl Harbor or the assassination of President Kennedy).

“It helps those who are younger connect the dots between what they see on a movie or television screen or read in a book and the human emotion of what it was like to go through that experience,” says Queiser.

Life Lunches are more intimate, offering an opportunity for personal conversation. “We go to a senior center or retirement community, set up a lunch and allow the younger folks to get to know the older folks one-on-one,” Queiser says. “It’s a great community service project for the schools because it allows students to interview someone unknown to them and practice their communication skills.”

This month, the SAY Project will participate in the annual Make A Difference Day, a “national day of doing good.” Although the national event is scheduled annually for the fourth Saturday of October, Queiser says the SAY Project provides an opportunity for intergenerational community service and interviews any day of the year. “We would like to partner with any retirement community, church, school, or corporation,” she adds.

For those wanting to make a beginning, either as interviewer or subject, The SAY Project is committed to a monthly Redding Public Libraries project.

“There are theories that seniors love to play bingo every day or that they live in the past,” adds Queiser. “Not true. They want to be involved. My goal is to do something today so we go home with a sense of purpose.” • Find the Wedding Wisdom CD (530) 348-2259 • www.thesayproject.org

P I O N E E R S A LO O N & LASSEN ALE WORKS

BY ALL ACCOUNTS, THE PIONEER was a dive bar, a hole-in-the-wall joint that had seen better days.

Today, those better days are back and the historic watering hole is now the place to be in Susanville, thanks to the efforts and vision of coowner Erik Jefferts and his partners.

Technically, it still qualifies as a hole-in-the-wall joint, and that’s because there are three bullet holes in the wall above the 36-foot-long bar. They’re silent reminders of the saloon’s rambunctious past.

The wall itself, painted with the brands and names of prominent Lassen County ranching families, is another reminder that cowboys and ranchers rank pretty high among the Pioneer’s customer base. Of note is the PX brand and Bing Crosby’s name; lore has it the fabled crooner stopped in for a libation and bribed a bartender to include his name and the brand from his Elko, Nev., ranch.

Across from the bullet holes and brands, however, is the main reason the Pioneer is a contemporary hot spot: the gleaming tanks that comprise the Lassen Ale Works brewhouse.

Both the craft brewery and the latest incarnation of the Pioneer Saloon came to life on Memorial Day 2012, following about six months of topto-bottom renovations. “It had been run into the ground,” Jefferts says of the saloon, which was established in 1862 and over the years has housed a bank, barbershop, pool hall and tobacconist shop.

Jefferts and his wife, Margaret Liddiard, partnered with Julie Howard and Mark Pfenning to purchase the Pioneer and turn it into a brewpub.

The foursome discovered the Pioneer while visiting from Seattle, fell in love with its western vibe and history, and saw its potential as a social hub for Susanville.

Lynda Jackson, a Susanville resident since 1989, welcomes the newold Pioneer. “What was missing was a place to meet friends and this place fills that bill,” she says. “It’s a great setting and great atmosphere, and I like it because you see people from all walks of life.”4 continued on page 70

OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 69

“They took an old divey situation and enhanced all the positive features,” says Jackson’s friend, Phil Nemir.

“They have good taste, good food, nice lighting… and it’s a good place to get a good beer. It’s a great addition to the community.”

“We tried to honor the tradition,” Jefferts says of the renovations. However, there was one custom they were more than happy to change: the vintage neon sign on Main Street that had burned out to the degree that only the “E” and “R” remained illuminated. “The joke was, if you came in after 9 pm, you were going to the ER,” Jefferts says.

Another sign from the old days remains inside, a banner above the swinging doors leading to the dining room that says “Boys Under 21 Not Allowed in the Billiard Room.”

Jefferts says it dates back to the days when the dining room was one of the last licensed limited-stakes card rooms in the state.

“I can’t count the number of stories I’ve heard of ranches changing hands three times in a night,” Jefferts says. The saloon and restaurant remain a 21-and-older establishment, thanks to the liquor license that came with the business. “There wasn’t much food service before we came along,” Jefferts says. “We’re working on changing it.”

The Pioneer Saloon’s food offerings rival the Lassen Ale Works beers for popularity. The full menu includes the popular Bizz Johnson Blonde Fish & Chips, steak, salmon, seafood, soups and sandwiches. Liddiard manages the restaurant while Jefferts oversees the brewing operation.

Jefferts got his start in craft brewing in 1988 at the Big Time Brewery and Alehouse, Seattle’s first brewpub. He worked with Reid Martin, whose brother, John, is a craft brewing pioneer who established Triple Rock Brewery in Berkeley in 1986. Jefferts worked at two other Seattle breweries before moving to Colorado to begin working with John Hickenlooper, who now serves as the state’s governor.

Jefferts helped Hickenlooper in the transformation of a three-story, turn-of-the-century building into the thriving Phantom Canyon Brewing Co. in Colorado Springs.

“The cool thing about working with Hickenlooper was his whole MO was using brewpubs to save these old buildings. It became kind of an incubator and sparked brewpubs in other places throughout the Midwest. It’s kind of what we did here, on a much smaller scale.”

Lassen Ale Works features a 10-barrel brewhouse and enough fermentation tanks and storage space to produce 1,500 barrels a year, or the equivalent of 3,000 kegs.

Jefferts describes his brewing philosophy as “more on the traditionalist side of things” and admits a preference for hoppy beers “but there is room for others. We do a lot of lagers and Belgian styles. I do like our malty beers too.” 4 continued on page 72

Jefferts said the growth in craft brewing in the last five years has been unprecedented and he credits a greater level of expertise among brewers and a higher degree of sophistication among customers, which poses a bit of a dilemma: “If you don’t make consistently good beers, people will go away.”

BEAUTY TRENDS

NEED NOW NAILS F U N FA L L N A I L I D E A S

THERE’S A WIDE, GLORIOUS WORLD of nail trends for fall — isn’t it time you gave one a spin? This list is your way in.

Tired of your predictable pink nails? DIY nail art is booming, and there are more options than ever for a fabulous manicure. October is as good a time as ever to shake up your roster of go-to nail polish colors. I’m not saying you have to say bye-bye to those bright summer hues, but fall’s hottest nail ideas will definitely have you rethinking a shade or two.4 continued on page 76 OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 75

Go bold with navy blue or purple: Try Butter London in Royal Navy ($15) or MAC Indulge Nail Lacquer in Rebel ($16). Burgundy and blood red are also big for fall. Pick one with a pearly finish to keep the look soft.

Consider gray your new favorite neutral.

Although it’s more eye-catching than nude or white, it won’t interfere with your everyday style.

If you really want to up the “wow” factor, try the latest trend in nail wraps.

No need to be a skilled artist, just wrap the nail with the ready-made prints and voilà, instant glam (www.Jamberrynails.net). Or squiggle away with a polish marker for DIY artwork. Try Topshop Make Up Nail Art Pens ($14) or Essie Sleek Stick polish strips ($10). Finally, revamp your go-to shade with a swipe of a matte topcoat, like OPI Matte Top Coat ($9). It’ll quiet down any color. Feeling artistic? Do an ombré manicure the simple way, with a kit of coordinated shades, such as That’s The New Black, The Original Ombré Nail Collection in Waves ($22, www.Sephora.com).

Teal is one of those colors that works year-round. It has a magical ability to spark daydreams about those beachside days of summer, even as we ease into winter. (Check out Esteé Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Nail Lacquer in Midnight Metal, $20.)

Pick the right red. Opt for a pinkish hue for fair skin, orange-y for medium, and a true red for a darker complexion.

(Try Essie Nail Polish in Too Too Hot, Geranium, and Russian Roulette, $8 each.)

The key to a long-lasting, chip-free mani?

Polish peels faster when the surface of your nail is unhealthy. Before applying color, brush on a primer. Find one that is infused with peptides so it will bring the pH of your nails back up to a healthy level.

Air conditioning is the biggest enemy to nails—going from warm temperatures to cold makes your nail plates expand and contract—so now is the time to keep your cuticles moisturized with oil.

76 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

Not ready to give up your glitter-infused summery polish?

Go for a metallic finish. You can even freshen up a French mani with metallic tips—subtle but super-cool.

While we love crazy nail art trends, sometimes a palette cleanser is in order. Enter classic nudes. Just because you opt for a non-color, neutral nail polish doesn’t mean your manicure will be boring. Muted colors can also make a statement. The trick is a shiny topcoat (Sally Hansen Complete Salon manicure in Pink Pong, $7.99). Pair red lips with nude nails. It’s classic and sophisticated. Try CoverGirl Stay Brilliant Nail Gloss in Forever Fawn ($5.49).

As for nail shape, long and oval seems to be all the rage with celebrities.

Try it, if you dare. Not quite that adventurous? Short and square never goes out of style.

Izzie Fox, stylist and owner of The Velvet Loft in Redding, says it’s a fabulous time for the manicure business. “With the endless options that gel polish gives, natural-length nails can be easily changed without damaging the integrity of the nail. There is also beautiful nail art and unlimited polish colors that are super hot and lots of fun!” Changing nail color and style is easy to fix if you don’t like it, so why not go for it? Jump on the nail art bandwagon and embrace the fall trends. Your hands will thank you. •

WHAT IS ON THE HORIZON? Michelle: We’re getting ready to expand into different locations, starting with Visalia, Calif. and Glendale, Ariz. Yvonne: We are excited about opening more magazines and more stores! We want to spread the Enjoy!

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR GREATEST REWARD WITH ENJOY? Michelle: Being able to build up our community and help get the word out about the amazing people and businesses in our region. Yvonne: When my family calls me to tell me how proud they are.

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR GREATEST CHALLENGE WITH ENJOY? Michelle: Realizing that things aren’t going to be perfect all the time. Yvonne: The greatest challenge is to know when to stop thinking about Enjoy. I can’t, I love it!

WHAT INSPIRES YOU? Michelle: People who are willing to give everything to change the world, who are not swayed by what people say but stick to their guns and get things done. Yvonne: Oh, gosh, everything! From walking up the steps to my sons’ school in Old Shasta and smelling the pines to our store vendors and their stories of custom-made products.

BEST ADVICE YOU’VE RECEIVED: Michelle: All in God’s time… which has served us well when we’ve had people want to rush us into decisions only to find out later after saying no that it would not have been a good decision for us as a company. Yvonne: If you love what you do, you will never have to work a day in your life.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT REDDING? Michelle: It would be hard to come up with just one thing. I love the people here and being so close to nature. It’s actually quite amazing in my book to live fairly close to downtown and have deer eating in your backyard or turkeys hanging out across the street. Yvonne: The natural beauty and the entrepreneurial spirit.4 continued on page 80

OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 79

IF YOU WEREN’T IN REDDING, WHERE WOULD YOU BE? Michelle: Somewhere warm and tropical, but I guess that would require a visit from the Publisher’s Clearinghouse Sweepstakes. Yvonne: Probably Portland, somewhere north, I am one of those crazy people who likes rain.

WHAT DID YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GREW UP? Michelle: Oh, I think I wanted to be a veterinarian at one time, or a marine biologist, just so I could work with animals. Yvonne: I wanted to be a fashion designer.

FAVORITE QUOTE: Michelle: May you always be overwhelmed by the grace of God rather than by the cares of life.

Yvonne: “Come quickly, I am drinking stars” — Dom Perignon WHAT‘S SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU? Michelle: My nickname is Chip, because I’ve been told I have chipmunk cheeks… I guess it could be worse. Yvonne: I designed my own line and had a fashion show at the Hilton in downtown Los Angeles.

WHAT’S YOUR BEST CHILDHOOD MEMORY? Michelle: Camping trips with my family and close friends and Christmas at my grandparents. Yvonne: Sitting on my dad’s lap asking him to tell me about the cows. (My grandparents were ranchers.)

YOUR FAVORITE COMFORT FOOD? Michelle: Really good bread and butter—as many carbs as you can pack into a piece. Yvonne: Grandma’s fresh rhubarb pie with loads of whipped cream.

WHO HAS INFLUENCED YOU THE MOST? Michelle: My parents always supported, encouraged and loved me, letting me know I could do anything. And my grandmother instilled in me the power of prayer. She was a true prayer warrior. Yvonne: My parents: my mom’s wisdom and my dad’s work ethic and charm.

80 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

IF YOU COULD BE A SUPERHERO, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT YOUR SUPERPOWERS TO BE? Michelle: Well, if we’re sticking to traditional superhero powers and not making them up, I think flying would be pretty cool. It would make all the travel I want to do that much easier and affordable… as long as I had superhuman strength to take my whole family with me!

Yvonne: To teleport. I just want to be “there.”

WHAT DO YOU TYPICALLY DO IN YOUR DOWN TIME? Michelle: Spend it with my family. Just being with them is my favorite thing to do. Yvonne: What down time? Did I tell you I have three boys? Give me a couple of years when they graduate. OK, I like to shop and look at skincare products.

NAME ONE THING THAT’S ON YOUR BUCKET LIST: Michelle: Travel to Australia/New Zealand. Yvonne: Front row of fashion week and I don’t care which one, New York, Paris or Milan.

WHAT IS YOUR GUILTY PLEASURE? Michelle: Ice cream. Or Starbucks whip cream. I could just order a cup of that, it’s so good. I don’t even need the coffee, but I guess that would look a little weird carrying into work.Yvonne: A beautiful cappuccino from my favorite coffee house.

FAVORITE MOVIE? Michelle: I love the “Lord of the Rings” Trilogy. Yvonne: “Out of Africa” with Meryl Streep.

WHO IS YOUR HERO? Michelle: My husband. I am so blessed to have someone who loves me so much, who is such an amazing father to our daughter, who gives me strength when I’m feeling run down or pulled in a zillion different directions or at the end of my rope. He gives me perspective and encourages me to fly. Who could ask for anything more? Yvonne: My husband. He is a brilliant man!

I AM A _____ (FIRST THING THAT POPS INTO YOUR MIND): Michelle: Goof ball. Yvonne: Creative. •

CRAFT IT M U S T- D O FA L L P R O J E C T S

WE ARE RAPIDLY APPROACHING the time of costumes, candy, turkey and pies – when we all look forward not only to the food, but the enjoyment of spending time with family and friends.

It’s never too early to begin plotting some easy, low-cost fall decorations.

Whether you are a decorating purist or prefer to use a less traditional color scheme, there is something for everyone.

NOTE:

Spray paint CANDY CORN VASES Materials needed: Multiple glass bottles or vases (large sizes work best). White, orange and yellow spray paint.

1.

2.

3.

4.

Wash glass with soap; rinse and pat dry.

In a properly vented area, paint an orange strip around the middle of the glass.

Once dry, add a yellow strip to the bottom and a white one to the top. No need to tape off the individual sections; this allows for a nice fade effect.

Let sit overnight, then display in the house with other Halloween goodies.

has come a long ways and it dries very quickly. Make sure you check the back of your can before you apply your next coat. In some cases it can be applied as quickly as 5 minutes later.

FESTIVE FALL FOLIAGE If you love the rich orange and red foliage of fall, this is a quick way to create a new display. You will need a clear glass vase, a silk leaf garland and white lights.

1. Use a vase that is large enough to hold your leaves and lights.

2. Wrap your lights around the leaf garland and then carefully place them inside.

3. Top off with wheat fronds, cattails or whatever is appealing to the eye.

4. Do not leave the lights burning for long periods of time.4 continued on page 84 OCTOBER 2014 ENJOY | 83

While planning for Thanksgiving, I knew I wanted to decorate with non-traditional fall colors. I love the idea of working with book pages, and I have been itching to Mod Podge strips onto something, I just didn’t know what. I was scouring thrift shops and came across a plastic orange pumpkin. This little guy was a bit of an eyesore, but I knew he would be perfect after he was made over. This project would work just as well with any plastic fruit or gourd.

BOOK PAGE PUMPKIN You will need book pages torn into strips ( 1x2-inch seems to work best), Mod Podge, paint brush, glitter (black, brown, green or gold) and newspaper to work on.

1. Coat the stem of your pumpkin with Mod Podge and cover with the glitter of your choice. I used a black iridescent glitter and love the way it turned out.

2. Brush Mod Podge onto the pumpkin and attach the book pages.

Be prepared to get sticky fingers, there is no way to avoid it! Use your nail to press the book pages into the creases of the pumpkin to enhance its lines.

3. Once the pumpkin is covered and dry, give it a final coat of Mod Podge to seal the surface.

4. Add more glitter around the stem if you would like to cover any paper edges.

Showcase with hurricane lamps filled with corn or colored pasta and topped with a flickering candle. Spray paint wine bottles white and place fall foliage inside for a clean, decorative look. You could also add lettering to your bottles to spell out “fall” or “give thanks”. I chose to leave mine blank so that I can reuse them for other holidays.

Remember the hurricane vases we made last Christmas? These are perfect to fill with Halloween candy and candles to round out your seasonal display.

Gather your creations together in various groups for table centerpieces, side table, mantle or window displays. Group items of various heights and colors, and notice that a tight grouping is usually more attractive than a sparse display with too much negative space. And if there are children’s crafts, be sure to give them pride of place in your design! •

Radial Artery Catheterization It’s all in the wrist!

Currently, less than five percent of hospitals in the United States employ the Radial Artery approach to catheterization. Shasta Regional Medical Center is proud to be one them and the first in the North State.

Cardiologists, Dr. Khan and Dr. Chandramouli are embracing a new technique for performing Cardiac Catheterization through an incision in the wrist rather than the groin. The technique is called Radial Artery Access and it offers patients some unique advantages.

• Decreased Complications • Shorter Recovery Time • Improved Patient Comfort (patients can move around immediately after the procedure rather than having to lay flat in bed for several hours) • Less Sedation • Earlier Discharge From Hospital

Weather is cooler and when it is, who doesn’t crave spicy Mexican food? You will love these cheesy and creamy white chicken enchiladas. If they sound too spicy, just modify the jalapeño or omit it altogether, as some is in the pico de gallo. And if you're looking to save time, opt for a rotisserie chicken from the market, which will speed up the assembly. Top these enchiladas with a quick green chile cream sauce for a twist on the traditional red enchilada sauce.

90 | ENJOY OCTOBER 2014

WHITE CHICKEN AND CHILES ENCHILADAS Yield: Serves 4 – 6 INGREDIENTS:

SAUCE INGREDIENTS:

2 T. olive oil

1 small white onion, chopped

1 medium red bell pepper, chopped

1 cup Pico de Gallo

4 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded, or 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

1 can (4 oz.) diced green chiles

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 can (2 oz.) sliced black olives

12 oz shredded Colby-Jack Cheese 10-12 soft taco-size flour tortillas

2 T. butter

2 T. all-purpose flour 1 ½ cup chicken broth

1 cup milk

¼ tsp. cumin Salt/pepper to taste

1 can green chiles

1 cup shredded Colby-Jack Cheese GARNISHES:

1 small sliced Jalapeño pepper Cilantro Shredded iceberg lettuce Sour cream Fresh diced avocado Sliced green onions

DIRECTIONS: 1 | Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cook and shred chicken

and set aside, or if using a rotisserie chicken, remove chicken breast meat, chop or shred and set aside.

2 | In a large skillet, add olive oil and sauté onion, bell pepper and pico de gallo over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in chicken, green chiles, black beans and olives and cook for a few minutes more to heat through.

3 | Place about ¹⁄ ³ cup of chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla and top with 2 heaping

tablespoons of shredded cheese. Roll up tightly and place seam side down in prepared dish.

Repeat until baking dish is full.

4 | Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat and sprinkle in flour. Whisk together and cook

over medium heat for about one minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth, milk, cumin, salt and pepper; cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat, and stir in green chiles.

5 | Pour green chile mixture over enchiladas. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese.

6 | Bake at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbly. Serve with choice of garnishes.

Lana Granfors enjoys traveling, gardening, cooking and spending time with her friends and family– especially her grandchildren, Jillian and Garet.

STAR Power

by Billy Pilgrim

Bob Dylan played Red Bluff in 2002, and from about seven feet away, he stared... no... glared into my eyes! Barry Bonds was buying Copenhagen at the USA on Cypress Avenue. We talked baseball for 10 minutes. I saw Chris Hillman from the Byrds in a nursery in San Diego in 1979. He walked right by me. And I mentioned this to him when he played Anderson a few years ago. He asked me, “Why didn’t you say hi?” I did a show with Peter Frampton, and he invited us all to his hotel room for the after party. I expected rock ‘n roll debauchery. We got Diet Coke and cookies. I have met so many artists, celebrities, athletes and just generally famous people in my life—many because of the business I work in, but some from pure happenstance, too. And it all started with Tony Dow, who played Wally on “Leave It To Beaver.” My dad spotted Dow doing photos, and asked me if I wanted one with him. I said “no,” and did it anyway. Here’s is a list of people I have met or interviewed along the way. Only two on this list were less than nice. I am probably leaving a few out.

ENJOY: Tell us about the history of your business.

BILL: Joy Lyn’s will be 45 years old this year, and it’s still in the same residential neighborhood where it started with Don and Joan Memmer. We’re the fourth owners, and my wife Pam and I have had the business for 15 years. We’re the longest owners of the business. I was retiring from police work and she was an administrative secretary for the school district, and we were looking to change careers. A friend of hers had the candy shop for sale, and we thought, “Let’s look at the sweet side of life and look at something totally different from what we’d been doing.”

ENJOY: How did you learn the business?

BILL: The old owners always stay on for a season and teach you all the recipes.

So they mentored us for a season, and we enhanced our education by joining a candy association called Retail Confectioners International. We went to all their conventions - a lot of it was networking with other candy makers, which is how we got the idea of making beer brittle.

ENJOY: Beer brittle?

BILL: Yes! Another candy maker back east was doing it and said it was very successful. On our store’s 40th anniversary, we introduced beer brittle, thinking that we’d do it for this special event. It became so popular immediately that we couldn’t stop making it. Then I took the brittle to Sierra Nevada Brewery and shared it with them, and they fell in love with it, too. They asked to carry it in their store, and we negotiated a deal where we were allowed to use their logo on our product. It won us the “unique advertising idea of the year” award. Since then, it’s been one of our number-one sellers.

ENJOY: What are some of the other awards you’ve earned?

BILL: We won best new piece of the year at RCI’s international convention with another beer product - we made caramel out of Sierra Nevada stout beer, and sprinkled the top with sea salt flavored with hops. It had regular sea salt on it, and the people at the brewery said, ‘We love this, but how about if we make a salt for you and flavor it with hops?’ I knew we had a winner. The stout beer

really smoothes out the caramel. We also just came back from another chocolate convention in Las Vegas and got the “highest quality” award for our raspberry cream covered with white chocolate and sprinkled with coconut macaroon.

ENJOY: What other types of candies do you make?

BILL: We are making 70 types of candy now, and when we bought the business, we were making just over 50. We make divinity, nougats, fudges, honeycomb, and all the flavors of creams and nuts and chews for a one-pound assorted box of chocolates. Our pumpkin pie truffles are really popular this time of year, as well as the caramel apples. We use apples from a local orchard, and they’re wonderfully fresh.

ENJOY: When is your busy season?

BILL: We close for the summer because of the heat - it’s hard to keep the factory at 68 degrees when it’s 100 outside. But we’re open from Oct. 1 through the end of May, and starting now, I’ll be working 10- to 12-hour days, six days a week, and about four hours on Sundays through Easter, since we’re a really small shop.

ENJOY: Yours is a family business, we understand.

BILL: Yes – my mother-in-law is a great gift wrapper. Our son helps with cooking, and he’s a great mechanic. Some of our equipment dates back to the late 1800s, and it requires a lot of tender loving care. Our daughter-in-law does a lot of our packing. Occasionally our daughter comes in and works during the holidays, and our grandkids come in and like to do little jobs, like fold boxes for us.

ENJOY: What do customers enjoy about your quality?

BILL: We make everything from scratch. If we’re making an orange cream, we zest the oranges. We buy strawberries and cook them into jam, and we use that in the strawberry candies. We use no preservatives, no additives and no artificial flavors. We cook in small batches so everything is fresh. Making something that’s so pleasing to people—going from the sometimes sad world of a police officer to the sweet world of smiles and laughter—it’s a unique change for me.

GIVING BACK

DICE FOR DETECTION “Screening mammography can help reduce the number of deaths from breast cancer among women ages 40 to 74.� ~ National Cancer Institute

BUNKO FOR BREAST CANCER: The late Karen Cross of the Cross Petroleum family started the Bunko for Breast Cancer Fund by suggesting that her Siskiyou County bunko group donate their October winnings to help uninsured women get free mammograms. Other bunko groups joined in, as did other generous donors. Since then, the fund has grown enough to provide no-cost mammogram programs at both Mercy Medical Center Mt. Shasta and St. Elizabeth Community Hospital in Red Bluff.

The no-cost mammogram program provides free screening and diagnostic mammograms, breast ultrasound and breast MRI for women who do not have health insurance or who have a deductible of $5,000 or more.

HOW YOU CAN HELP: To donate to this fund or to learn more about the program, please visit www.supportmercynorth.org, or by phone, contact St. Elizabeth Community Hospital at (530) 529-8016 or Mercy Medical Center Mt. Shasta at (530) 926-9318.
