beard," he jokes. Toro says its thanks to his time in the Marine Corps that he has been able to travel the world. "I got to visit quite a few countries," says David. The Marine Corps stationed David at Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, in Irvine and upon returning to civilian life, he met wife, Kerri. Shortly after they married, they purchase a home in Colton in February of 1989, where they have resided for the past 25 years. The Banner program initially began in commemoration of active duty military members and within a year, the program was opened up to veteran and memorial banners.

Toro hopes the banner program will continue throughout the years to honor "unsung heros." "I'm proud to have served my country," says Toro. "I am a Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine."

in enlisting with the United States Marine Corps. Too young to enlist on his own, "I had to get my mom to sign for me to go in," says Toro. "I thought the Marines had the best looking uniforms and they were the toughest out of all of them." He served his country from 1978 to 1982. He served on the squadron named, "Death Battlers" which was part of the air wing within the Marine Corps. He served on the USS Coral Sea during the Iranian Hostage Crisis rescue attempt. During the installation of Councilman Frank Navarro's banner, Toro was inspired to have one hung in remembrance of his time in the U.S. Marine Corps. "I told my wife, 'Hey, I want that for Christmas!'," said Toro. Within a few weeks, David received the banner as a Christmas gift from his wife Kerri and two children, Michael and Nicole. "Getting to see my banner up there," said David, "it's a cool feeling." The banner displays a young 17 year-old David, which he jokes that many people confuse for his 21 year-old son Michael. "A lot of "Semper Fi and Good night people confuse me for my son. He Chesty Puller, wherever you are." kind of looks like me, so he grew a PHOTO/COURTESY

The Recreation and Parks commission discusses ideas with attendees at the second-annual Youth Sports Summit. Summit from front

Presidents of all youth sports leagues were invited to attend the regularly scheduled Recreation and Parks Commission meeting which included the Youth Sports Summit. Each league gave a presentation to the commission that included an update on their league. Presidents shared information regarding their league such as, dates and duration of their season, numbers fans ages of participants, and registration fees. During the summit, attendees were invited to address their questions and concerns for the commission. Some of which included the need for a better, larger facility to host the soccer league. Attendees also expressed concern over the need for permanent restrooms at McKinley’s lower fields, which host Colton T-Ball. The facilities currently only have portable restrooms for their 200+ players and families. In response, the commission shared that a high priority is building a regional sports park & the Community services department & the city are currently working towards making this hap-

pen. “In any relationship, there is always room for improvement and growth which is achieved through communication, the exchange of ideas, and by focusing on common goals. The Recreation & Parks Commission felt that hosting a summit was a great way for us to strengthen our relationship with the youth sports leagues in our city,” stated Commission Chair, Summer ZamoraJorrin. She also stated that restrooms will be built in the “very near future” at McKinley fields pending approval from the State Architect to break ground. The commission requested documentation from the leagues including bylaws, code of conduct, rules & regulations in order to review and refer to said documents if and when the need arises. “This year we had representatives from four of out youth leagues including: Fernando Reynosa from Colton Youth Soccer, Raul Gutierrez, Colton Pony Larry Rivas, Ken Hubbs, Inez Issac, Colton T-Ball,” stated Summer. “The Youth Sports Summit provides us with the opportunity to meet face to face with repre-

sentatives from each league and engage in an open dialogue to hear concerns and address issues that are important to the many members of each league- including players, parents, coaches, and board members. A high priority of our commission is to assist in any way we can to provide the best recreational experience for Colton residents and their families.” Commission Members include: District 1, Estelle Kunter, District 2, Tony Soto: Vice Chair District 3, Paul Rasso, District 4, vacantDistrict 5, Jimmy Ramirez, District 6, Albert ZamoraAt-Large, Summer Zamora-Jorrin: Chair The Recreation & Parks Commission meets the third Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. in City Hall Council Chambers in January, March, May, July, September and November. Meetings are open to the public and the commission welcomes all Colton residents to attend. There will be a Sports Hall of Fame event on April 25th at 6:00 p.m. at the Gonzales Center.

soon so keep informed and make your vote count.

This column has a good amount of “Save the Dates” because there is so much happening in our area where we can be informed and can support our local non-profits.

Gloria Macias Harrison

Dear readers, I just returned from a three-week trip to the Orient and am finally recovering from jet lag and a slight cold so my comments are brief for this column. Since my internet was spotty and in some areas Facebook was not available to me I am buried in emails, mail and missed telephone messages but I am answering every one of them. I missed some wonderful events and of course the swearing in of new elected officials in San Bernardino. I am amused and concerned by the musical chairs in elected offices. We the voters have many decisions to make in special and primary elections coming up

Let me highlight one event coming up this Thursday, March 27. The first Mosaico Music Festival performance, a concert funded by the San Bernardino Symphony's James Irvine Grant will be presented in conjunction with California State University's Latino Education and Advocacy Days (LEAD). Conducted under the baton of Maestro Frank Fetta, the concert features musical selections celebrating Latin American music and culture and will feature mezzo-soprano Ana Gonzalez, tenor Gustavo Hernandez, and the Ballet Folklorico de Los Angeles. The Irvine grant funds two additional performances of this concert so if you miss it this time there is an opportunity to attend this summer at the Fontana Music Festival and at the Perris Hill Park Roosevelt Bowl this fall.

Also on April 17, Inland Empire Economic Partnership (IEEP) will hold its 2014 State of the Region Economic Forecast with a presentation by Dr. John Husing. Joining him will be Dr. Debbie Freund, President of Claremont Graduate University, discussing Obamacare

Cesar E. Chavez

f you’re Latino/a, you’ve probably heard the name. Cesar Chavez. Why was this man so important? So iconic? Cesar Chavez, a Mexican-American union leader and labor organizer was born Cesario Estrada Chavez on March 31, 1927, near Yuma, Arizona. Chavez dedicated his life to improving the life of farm workers using non-violent means to bring attention to the condition in which farm workers were subjected. Chavez led marches, called for boycotts and went on several hunger strikes to make an impact. He worked to bring awareness to the dangers of workers’ exposure to pesticides. Chavez worked as a community and labor organizer in the 1950’s and soon after founded the National Farm Workers Association in 1962. In 1965, the union joined the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee in its first strike against grape growers. In 1966, both unions merged to form what would be renamed United Farm Workers. It is because of the tireless efforts of Cesar Chavez that many laborers and farm workers were able to see improved working conditions, increased safety precautions and increased wages. The movie, Cesar Chavez: History Is Made One Step At A Time, is set to hit the big screen on

Freight Rail: Hauling Our Empire to Economic Prosperity With 27,000 square miles and the state’s fastest growing population – experiencing nearly 60 percent growth in the next 15 years – we are truly building an empire. But we cannot sustain that kind of growth without freight rail.

Mainline rail capacity is critical to the movement of goods through our area. San Bernardino County plays a key role in moving domestic goods and provides critical access to markets. Ocean carriers can avoid a lengthy and costly truck haul of intermodal containers to San Bernardino by using ondock and near-dock facilities. As a result, some of the nation’s largest manufacturers have chosen the Inland Empire for their distribution centers, creating the jobs that are so critical to our continued growth. And the railroads will help us

maintain that growth.

US freight railroads are already pulling their weight, so to speak. They continue to invest at record levels – over $25 billion in 2013 – to grow and improve the national rail network.

You, the taxpayer, are on the hook to maintain our nation’s highways, waterways and airports. But freight railroads pay their own way. That’s right: railroads are privately owned companies spending far more on our railroads than most state departments of transportation spend on highways each year. That is staggering. These are private dollars – not taxpayer dollars – invested in a more environmentally friendly, efficient, economical way to transport all the things we use every day. I recently returned from Railroad

Day on Capitol Hill. This annual gathering is a great way to relay to Congress the importance of focusing on rail issues. In our area and throughout the nation, railroads will help us to restore the economy and the environment. Both here and across the nation, our future truly is riding on rail.

Railroads are flourishing, and they will help us flourish. We have a rail industry that is not only thriving, but also driving economic growth and job creation throughout the IE and nationwide. Let’s look to freight rail to haul our region into economic prosperity. Paul Granillo President and CEO Inland Empire Economic Partnership (IEEP)

Loma Linda Loper's Road Running Marathon Club says quitting is not an option

By Harvey M. Kahn

ot close to running on empty, about 150 members of the Loma Linda Lopers running club assembled at the San Bernardino Hilton Hotel last week to celebrate their completion of the Los Angeles Marathon. For nearly all, the mere accomplishment of crossing the finish line after 26 miles was more important than the time it took. The feat was compounded due to 85 degree heat at the 29th LA Marathon held on March 9. The banquet setting gave many Loper's a chance to exchange stories about running their first 26mile marathon and the eight months it took to prepare. Some testimonials were humorous and others detailed harsh facts of life. With about total 500 members, the 37-year old Loma Linda Loper's club blazed the trail for many of California's 195 other road running clubs. It meets on Sundays at the Loma Linda Drayson Center. Loper's club director Kristy Loufek said about 65 of their members completed the LA Marathon. She explained that preparing for the 26.2 mile run is just one aspect of the Loper's mission. She told that the heat on race day was the biggest challenge. In her welcoming presentation, Loufek introduced a number of her membership who

overcame obstacles before even getting to Los Angeles. Loufek and co-host Robin Windhorst acknowledged the volunteers who lugged sacks of bananas, oranges and gatorade every Sunday morning. She pointed to volunteer coach Bill Carter, who for 15 years has run up to 22 miles every week to help train fellow Loper's. While the Loma Linda Loper's can be considered a large social club, their banquet mixer provided a different atmosphere to reveal more about themselves. Loufek's first observation was that every one

cleaned up and smelled so good that she hardly recognized them. New Loper, David Guevara told the audience that running a marathon was the furthest thing from his mind. Guevara was shot in the leg while serving in Afghanistan and upon his military discharge was happy to just walk let alone run 26 miles. Guevara slowly worked up to 12 miles and then started to think, "I can do this and then I started thinking, no I can't." Initially, Guevara didn't even know about proper foot wear and as his training progressed,

he realized that he physically would be able to run only one marathon. He admitted that during the LA Marathon he felt like giving up, but heard his pace leader's voice in his head, saying "finish what you started." Guevara finished with an excellent time of 4 hours, 31 minutes. Earl Purkiss was told that running his first marathon would be four times as hard as running a half marathon. Purkiss told about the various special events occurring along the LA Marathon course. "The Chinese drums and the Spanish guitars." Purkiss clocked a respectable 4:41 on the route that went from Dodgers' Stadium to the Santa Monica Pier. Husband and wife, Chris PerryHill and Gary Hill told the audience that running became a hobby to fill leisure time. They felt going to the movies and eating popcorn would just make them fat. The Forest Falls couple said going to the gym or lifting weights was not for them. Chris joined the Loper's first and later coaxed Gary into joining her. "Now, running is our date weekends and we crossed the finish line at the LA Marathon together." Rajan Christian, 44, took the podium and detailed the story about how his 81-year-old father, Dr. Moses Christian, is his role model and an ambassador to the sport of distance running. Moses Christian crossed the LA Marathon finish line

Words to think about: “Neither am I right nor are you wrong, It’s simply this, we’re different.”

By G. W. Abersold Ph.D

iterature is filled with human conflicts and in particular, differences of opinions. Sometimes they end in violent disagreements. The Bible tells of Cain and Abel. Their differences ended with Cain killing Abel. Julius Caesar and Brutus disagreed and Brutus stabbed Caesar. Political differences often end in violence. Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy are tragic examples. The high number of homicides annually in San Bernardino verifies the truth of this observation. Child abuse and spousal abuse are usually preceded by differences of opinion. Several years ago I wrote a poem I called, “La Differencia.” I heard a phrase the other day That speaks to me so plainly. “Neither am I right nor are you wrong, It’s simply this, we’re different.” How easy it is for me to say, That what I do is right. Or what you say is always wrong. No matter what I think. You live slowly, I live fast, I like this and you like that. Neither am I wrong nor are you right. It’s simply this, we’re different. More years than I would like to think about, a history professor in graduate school made a comment I’ve never forgotten. He said, “More wars have been fought, more men and women have been killed, more devastation has been

resulted from RELIGION than any other reason. Unfortunately religion is the cause for more disagreements between people; more differences among groups, more couples breaking up than for any other reason. Religion. The issues are clear cut. Consider the hundreds of religions in the world today. The thousands of denominations in existence. The millions of independent members with different opinions. Agreement on anything would be near to impossible. I heard a Bible scholar the other day discussing the greatest miracles in the Bible. His conclusion was recorded in the Book of Acts when it says there were 120 believers in one place, ALL IN ONE ACCORD. A famous Jewish one liner is that whenever two Jews get together, there are always at least 3-5 opinions.

I’ve been teaching a class on the history of the Bible for thirty-eight years. In the last fifty years great strides have been made in the field. For example the discovery of the Nag Hammadi Scrolls (1945) in Egypt and the Dead Sea Scrolls (1947) in Israel have brought significant information about the history of the Bible. Archaeology and Science have also added much information to the Biblical translations. Just within the last twenty-five years a plethora of credible scholars have written valuable books. Scholars like Elaine Pagels, James Robinson, Dominic Crossan, Bart Ehrman, Marcus Borg and Bishop John Shelby Spong to name a few. Two good examples. Recently the dissertation of Dr. Gordon Hynes (Ph.D.) professor at Redlands University for many years was brought to light. In it he catalogued over 200 examples that the

Apostle Paul took from Greek philosophers and poets in his writings. They are either exact words or paraphrased. The second discovery concerns Universalism, meaning that every person will be saved. The early Patristic Fathers like Origen and Ireneas believed it. It wasn’t until the advent of Augustine that the concept of “hell” was introduced. Most of the writings of the Fathers are now available. BOTH SUBJECTS ARE SUBJECT TO STRONG DISAGREEMENTS. I have three basic principles that I try to live by.

for the 19th time. Rajan Christian said his father has completed all 180 marathons that he's started. He ran his first at age-61. Rajan told how his father bribed him to run, too. "My father has run all over the world--Mt. Kilamanjaro, China, Africa, Dubai." Dr. Christian of Loma Linda is a practicing dentist in Banning. He advised that everyone has an inner strength that can be found when needed. He said it is up to every individual to draw on that discipline and have faith in God. He began running as a way to improve his health after undergoing a prostrate cancer operation 19 years ago. Though not taking the stage, Jeannette Roostai, 72, later said that running is becoming more important now that she is losing her hearing. She feels that running helps enhance her other senses. She first joined the Loper's at age 53 and has been a periodic member since 1995. Roostai retired from running after completing her 11th LA Marathon in 2011. "A terribly cold thunderstorm flooded the course. I said afterwards, 'That is it.'" Roostai said that coming back to finish the 2014 LA Marathon in temperatures reaching near 90 degrees heat was just too much. "That was my last marathon. I'm quitting while I'm ahead." Friends of Roostai from the Loma Linda Lopers, responded, "That's what they all say."

on respect for the other person. Stella and I have ten very, very good friends with whom we could not disagree with more. Yet, we have lunch with them regularly. We do respect them and their opinion. If the discussion is controversial, my second rule is: “Others are entitled to their opinions, but NOT to their own set of facts.” Neither am I. Years ago when I was doing graduate work for my Ph.D. in Humanistic Psychology, a professor gave the class some good advice. He said that when counseling someone: 1) Never tell them what to believe; 2) Never tell them who to vote for, 3) Never tell them how to make love, 4) Never tell anyone how to play golf. Generally I’ve been successful in three of these. I’ve miserably failed with one. Amen. Selah. So be it.

Health Care Enrollment fair signs up over 300 residents in San Bernardino

By Anthony Victoria

ore than 300 San Bernardino residents were present at Arroyo Valley High School on Sunday March 23 to sign up for the Affordable Care Act and for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). The Inland Congregations United for Change (ICUC) in partnership with the Puente Project at Arroyo Valley, San Bernardino Generation Now, the National Immigration Law Center, and One Justice hosted the Health Care Enrollment and Resource Fair to assist the predominantly Latino population in the city. The event also included DACA workshops. The program provides undocumented residents between 15 and 31 who arrived in the United States as children temporary work authorization for a period of two years. Law students were available to assist DACA eligible residents with the application process. Past health studies have demonstrated high uninsured rates for Inland Empire residents. The UCLA Center for Health Policy stated in 2011 that between 2007 and 2009, San Bernardino County had the state’s highest percentage-point increase for uninsured residents at 9.7. Growing unemployment and poverty saw the number of uninsured people in the county grow from 544,000 to 361,000 in 2007. By 2012, the uninsured rate was floating around 30 percent, according to the study. ICUC has made pivotal steps to outreach to their constituents in the Greater Riverside and San Bernardino areas. The organization has held six health fairs in Riverside County in the cities of Coachella, North Shore, Mecca, Palm Springs, Indio. They will be hosting a homeless health event on April 15 in Riverside. The fair held this past weekend was the first in San Bernardino County, with a subsequent event to this fair scheduled for March 29. In addition, they have held several workshops in recent months to train volunteers and members about DACA and the Affordable Care Act. “We’ve been doing a lot of outreach,” said ICUC organizer Jessica Cobian. “This has been the result of the work of our community leaders.They have been making announcements and tabling. We have also been getting support from the school board. They have been very helpful and they share our interest in offering these services to the community.” Cobian additionally expressed her delight in seeing student volunteers engage with the community and take a profound interest in health care reform and DACA. “A lot of the students at this table are from Arroyo Valley and they volunteered after we held the workshops,” she said. “They are really excited about helping the community. It was incredible how they were able to absorb all that information in just a few minutes. They were excited about the fact that their community can get Medical. Their family and

neighbors could receive health care for the first time. I think its really important to get the youth involved in these issues because they have so much energy. We are so happy to have their support.” Jose Angel Rubio, 55, said he feels much more relieved after receiving consultation and signing up for health care. “I feel much more content and so much happier after Today. I now have the security I needed for my health. I think they provided me with very helpful information and provided the best service they could.”

Cesar Chavez: A Movie About a Cause and a Legend

By Katharine A. Díaz

abor leader César E. Chávez passed away in 1993 after a life's work of fighting for farmworkers' rights. Not only is César Chávez Day commemorated in several states and the César E. Chávez National Monument stands in his honor, now there comes a film about this legendary activist, Cesar Chavez, scheduled to hit movie screens on March 28. Directed by Diego Luna, actor (Y tu mama también and Milk), director and producer (The Well), the movie stars Michael Peña (Walkout and American Hustle) in the leading role as Chávez; America Ferrera (Real Women Have Curves, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and TV's Ugly Betty) as Helen Chávez, the leader's wife; and Rosario Dawson (Alexander, Rent and Men in Black II) as Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farm Workers union (UFW). Filmmakers focused on crucial periods of his life during the 1960's that included the Delano march, the grape boycott, his first hunger strike and the coming to the bargaining table with landowners. Peña brings those moments to life with a sensitive portrayal of the labor leader that allows us to feel the personal sacrifices he made in his life. Peña shows us that Chávez had a quiet resolve and respect for all, even the bad-guy growers. He also brings to life less-known incidences in the labor leader's fight. One such episode takes place during the grape boycott when Chavez travels to Europe to gain support for his cause and to block grape shipments sanctioned by the U.S. government intended for the European market. The scene in which he empties crate after crate of grapes off a bridge is all about sweet victory. Dolores Huerta, as portrayed by Dawson, is ever present. Her important role in the struggle may not be clearly defined in the movie, but it's clear that she was by Chavez's side every step of the way. Dawson captures her inner

strength. Ferrera's portrayal of Chavez's wife gives us more insights into Chavez's character. Through her we see how he struggled to be a good husband and father and understand how his struggles were hers too. Actual footage and news clips of

the time are seamlessly woven into the movie. Even when paired with the scenery, costuming, props, and casting from the film production, you believe you are back in the 1960's. Yet, the biggest sigh of relief comes not from the moment that news breaks that growers are will-

ing to meet with the UFW, but for a production that is respectful of the great labor leader. That said, this dramatic biopic of one great Latino leader reinforces the urgency for many more. We need to all get out and support this movie because with its success there will be more. And perhaps the next

one will be about Dolores Huerta, who continues the good fight.

César Chávez

esar Estrada Chavez founded and led the first successful farm workers' union in U.S. history. When he passed away on 23 April 1993, he was president of the United Farm Workers of America, AFL-CIO Cesar was born March 31, 1927, on the small farm near Yuma, Arizona that his grandfather homesteaded during the 1880's. At age 10, life began as a migrant farm worker when his father lost the land during the Depression. These were bitterly poor years for Cesar, his parents, brothers and sisters. Together with thousands of other displaced families, the Chavez family migrated throughout the Southwest, laboring in fields and vineyards. Cesar left school after the eighth grade to help support his family. He joined the U.S. Navy in 1945, and served in the western Pacific during the end of World War II. In 1948, he married Helen Fabela, who he met while working in Delano vineyards. The Chavez family settled in the East San Jose barrio of Sal Si Puedes (get out if you can). In 1952, Cesar was laboring in apricot orchards outside San Jose when he met Fred Ross, an organizer for the Community Service Organization, a barrio-based selfhelp group sponsored by Chicago-based Saul Alinsky's Industrial Areas Foundation. Within several months Cesar was a fulltime organizer with CSO, coordinating voter registration drives, battling racial and economic discrimination against Chicano residents and organizing new CSO chapters across California and Arizona. Cesar served as CSO national director in the late 1950's and early 1960's. But his dream was to create an organization to help farm workers whose suffering he had shared. In 1962, after failing to convince the CSO to commit itself to farm worker organizing, he resigned his paid CSO job, the first regular paying job he had. He moved his wife and eight young children to Delano, California where he founded the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA). These were difficult years for Cesar and Helen Chavez. Helen worked in the fields during the week and on weekends with her husband to support the family. He

often babysat his youngest children as he traveled to dozens of California farm communities, slowly building a nucleus of dedicated farm worker members. "If you're outraged at conditions, then you can't possibly be free or happy until you devote all your time to changing them and do nothing but that," he said. "But you can't change anything if you want to hold onto a good job, a good way of life and avoid sacrifice." In September 1965, Cesar's NFWA, with 1200 member families, joined an AFL-CIO sponsored union in a strike against major Delano area table and wine grape growers. Against great odds, Cesar led a successful five year strike-boycott that rallied millions of supporters to the United Farm Workers. He forged a national support coalition of unions, church groups, students, minorities and consumers. The two unions merged in 1966 to form the UFW, and it became affiliated with the AFL-CIO. From the beginning, the UFW adhered to the principals of nonviolence practiced by M.K. Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The 1965 strikers took a pledge of non-violence and Cesar conducted a 25 day fast in 1968 to

reaffirm the UFW's commitment to non-violence. The late Senator Robert F. Kennedy called Cesar "one of the heroic figures of our time," and flew to Delano to be with him when he ended the fast. By 1970, the boycott convinced most table grape growers to sign contracts with the UFW. That year, to limit the UFW's success to the vineyards, growers in the vegetable industry signed "sweetheart" pacts with the Teamsters Union. When the UFW's table grape agreements came up for renegotiation in 1973, growers signed with the Teamsters, prompting 10,000 farm workers in California's coastal valleys to walk out of the fields in protest. Cesar called for a new worldwide grape boycott. By 1975, a Louis Harris poll showed 17 million American adults were honoring the grape boycott. It forced growers to support then California Governor Jerry Brown's collective bargaining law for farm workers, the 1975 Agricultural Labor Relations Act. Since 1975, the UFW won most of the union elections in which it participated. Despite the farm labor board's bureaucratic delays, farm workers made progress. By the early 1980's farm workers numbered in the tens of thousands

"One of the heroic figures of our time." -Senator Robert F. Kennedy were working under UFW contracts enjoyed higher pay, family health coverage, pension benefits and other contract protections. Then, in 1982, with more than $1 million in grower campaign donations, Republican George Deukmejian was elected Governor of California. Most objective observers agree that under Deukmejian, the farm labor board ceased to enforce the law. In 1984, Cesar called for another grape boycott. In July and August 1988, he conducted a 36 day "Fast for Life" to protest the pesticide poisoning of grape workers and their children. Cesar lived with his family since 1970 at La Paz, in Keene, California, the union's headquarters in Kern County's Tehachapi Mountains, east of Bakersfield,. Like other UFW officers and staff, he received subsistence pay that didn't top $5,000 a year. Cesar Chavez passed away on April 23, 1993, at the age of 66. More than 40,000 people participated in Cesar's funeral at Delano. He was laid to rest at La Paz in a

rose garden at the foot of the hill he often climbed to watch the sun rise. In 1991, Cesar received the Aguila Azteca (The Aztec Eagle), Mexico's highest award presented to people of Mexican heritage who have made major contributions outside of Mexico. On August 8, 1994, Cesar became the second Mexican American to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the United States. This award was presented posthumously by President Bill Clinton. Helen F. Chavez and six of her eight children traveled to the White House to receive the honor. In 1994, Cesar's family and the officers of the UFW created the Cesar E. Chavez Foundation to inspire current and future generations by promoting the ideals of Cesar's life, work and vision. The Foundation's headquarters is at La Paz, the future location of the Cesar E. Chavez Library and the Cesar E. Chavez Training and Education Center.

Chicano Latino Caucus to host César E. Chávez memorial luncheon

By Cynthia Mendoza

n Sunday, March 30 the Chicano Latino Caucus of the Inland Empire (Caucus) will be hosting a César E. Chávez Memorial Luncheon in honor of what would have been Chávez’s 87th birthday on March 31. Born in Yuma, Arizona, Chávez was “an American farm worker, labor leader and civil rights activist, who, with Dolores Huerta, co-founded the National Farm Association.” Workers (Wikipedia). Chávez is known for many things, including his non-violent approach to organizing and promoting labor and farm worker rights. He passed away on April 23, 1993 in San Luis, Arizona at the age of 66. The memorial luncheon, like many other similar events that will likely take place nationwide in his honor, will be a time of reflection on the changes that his life brought about as well as inspiration to keep his memory and legacy alive for the future. “These workers were our families; our parents, aunts, uncles,

icholson Park in San Bernardino will be gaining a great new addition to the park in the coming months. A community fruit tree park and community garden are in the works thanks to the non-profit organization, The Incredible Edible Community Garden (IECG). Nicholson Park is the second park to become a fruit park, the first being in Montclair last October. The project will include 30 fruit trees with a dedicated irrigation system, all of which will be provided by IECG. he organization will also maintain the fruit park for the first three years, which will include drip system maintenance and pruning. IECG will also assure that the fruit park is cared for with organic pesticides. The project is funded largely in part by the USDA Forest Service. Other partners include: city of San Bernardino, Parks and Recreation Department, Integrated Infrastructures, Inc. and Braceros Landscaping.fruit

A community engagement meeting will be held on March 28, at 6:00 p.m. for members of the community to select a location for the trees, select a name for the fruit park and select the types of fruit trees to be planted. “The Big Dig” will take place on April 12, 2014 from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m where volunteers will dig the 30 holes for each fruit tree with equipment provided by IECG. Groundbreaking will take place on April 26, during which all trees will be planted. Members of the community are encouraged to volunteer in planting. The fruit park will be open to all members of the community and will not be gated or enclosed. “Once the fruit is mature and ready pick, it’s free to be picked by anyone who comes to the park,” says Petit. The second phase of the Nicholson Park project will include a community garden that is set to launch midsummer. Along with fruit parks and community gardens, the organization also began a tree planting program in San Bernardino county. “All of our work in in San Bernardino county. With the urban tree planting, the focus is on people that live or rented homes, apartments or condos in the underserved communities. Typically those communities are left out of the free trees that get distributed around those areas.” The organization helps to establish organic tree parks, community gardens, as well as tree planting throughout San Bernardino county in schools, churches, urban housing complexes and senior housing complexes. “Several of them we actually manage ourselves,” says Mary Petit, founder of the IECG. The program had a successful launch of a tree planting program last year, in which the organization

distributed and planted over 400 trees in 17 cities within the county. This marks the second year for the tree planting program and its well on its way to proving to be another successful year. IECG has also partnered with the county veterans affairs group to create the first “living memorial veterans garden” which is located at Cal State San Bernardino. “It’s the first one in the nation and we donated trees to Cal State. A group of them were to provide a veterans garden,” says Petit. Mary Petit says her organization is three-fold. IECG not only provides trees and gardens, but is also leading the way in developing aquaponics gardening. “Aquaponics is where you use a combination of fish farming to grow vegetables. The fish water grows vegetables. We will raise tilapia fish and the water from the tanks will go through a self-contained, recirculating tubing through grow baskets that will grow vegetables, herbs and even trees. And there is no soil involved, but the fish water is 100% organic and the plant life grows five to seven times faster than if you planted in soil.” Petit calls aquaponics gardening the “wave of the future” that could provide a more economical solution to planting during drought conditions. Petit is currently in the process of putting together an aquaponics demonstration at San Bernardino County Museum in Redlands within the coming months.

t only took one inning for Grand Terrace to seize control of the Redlands Softball Invitational title game that resulted in a 13-1 rout of Redlands High School on Saturday, March 22. The Titans cranked out five hits in the first inning against Terriers starting pitcher Skie Munoz, highlighted with back-to-back home runs by Alyssa Martinez and Marissa Jauregui to jump out to a 6-0 lead. Grand Terrace (4-0) went on to total 15 hits on the day, including four home runs and five doubles. The other home runs were solo shots by Eliyah Flores in the second and Jocelyn Battancourt in the fifth.

Flores scored four times as she also doubled twice and finished tied for a game-high two RBIs with Bettancourt, Alexis Allen and Brandice Olmos. Allen paced the Titans with a 4for-4 performance while batting turnaround. All the offensive firepower was more than enough for starting pitcher Melanie Olmos, who battled out of jams through five innings, allowing six hits and two walks while mixing in eight strikeouts. Redlands (8-1) had chances to get back into the game, loading the bases twice, but ended up stranding nine base runners. Defense didn’t do the Terriers any favors, as three errors extended innings for the Titans. The tournament was the first games of the season for the Titans, notching wins over Lake Elsinore Lakeside, Hesperia Oak Hills and San Bernardino Cajon in route to this game. Grand Terrace will look to keep its momentum going when it opens up Sunkist League play at home against Colton (3-3) on March 28. Redlands will look to bounce

Bloomington Alumni signs professional contract with Pennsylvania Rebellion

By Anthony Victoria

nland Empire softball standout Ashley Carter made the ultimate New Years Resolution statement. According to her father John Carter, the 23-year old outfielder announced that her big goal for the coming year was to play in the National Pro Fastpitch league. Mission Accomplished. In February Carter signed a two year contract with the Pennsylvania Rebellion who are in their inaugural year in the NPF. “This has always been a dream of mine to play professional softball,” said Carter. “I couldn’t stand not playing anymore, so to have this opportunity is surreal.” As a four year varsity letterman at Bloomington High School, Carter achieved a .464 batting average, with 185 hits, and 63 runs batted in. In addition to making the San Bernardino Sun and Press Enterprise all-area softball teams, she made the all-Sunkist League team in her four years and was voted the Sunkist Most Valuable Player in her senior season. Carter went on to play at Cal State Fullerton. As a Junior she was selected to the All-Big West Conference First

team as an outfielder and led the university in offensive categories such as hits, batting average, runs scored, and on-base percentage. As a senior Carter averaged .259 and led the Titans in hits with 44 and 13 RBI’s. She also led the team with 13 stolen bases in her final

season. Additional to her experience at the collegiate level, the 5’4 outfielder has played on the California A’s softball travel team. She was a starting outfielder on the 2012 squad that won the Women’s Elite Fastpitch Canadian Cup de-

Kids reel ‘em in at Junior Fishing Workshop

ver 100 youth participants came out to San Bernardino County Regional Park’s Junior Fishing Workshop at Yucaipa Regional Park on Saturday March 22. The event was sponsored by Supervisor Josie Gonzalez and Friends of Regional Parks. The workshops aimed to introduce kids to fishing and get them active and outdoors. The junior fishers arrived early to a very cold morning, but were eager to learn about fishing. The participants age range from 7 up to 15 years of age. They were split up

into groups and began their learning experience by rotating through five stations where they discovered the rules, what equipment and knots to use, how to cast their lines, where to hold the fish, and how to prepare their catches for dinner. After the participants made their way through each station, they had two hours of open fishing to practice their skills. An astounding 270 fish were caught during the open fishing session, with many of the participants catching the maximum of five. This is the most that the Regional

Parks Department has seen at a Junior Fishing Workshop in recent years. Many of these participants caught a fish for the very first time. About 3 troops of boy scouts were present and were able to expand their growing knowledge of the outdoors. There were also a number of families present that were all fishing together. The participants went home with a free souvenir t-shirt and a day full of great memories. For more information about future events, please visit http://www.sbcounty.gov/parks.

feating national teams from Japan, Australia and Venezuela. Despite her impressive resume, Carter went unselected in the 2013 NPF College Draft and was overlooked by the Akron Racers during a tryout earlier this year. She almost didn’t make the trip to the Rebellion’s open tryout in February due to the lack of money. “I decided to give coach (Rick) Bertagnolli a call because I was interested,” she explained. “He called me back telling me they had information on me and I made the decision to travel to Pennsylvania.” At the tryout Carter showcased her defensive skills in the outfield and displayed her hitting and baserunning skills to the coaching staff. The anticipation was nerve wracking according to Carter. “Coach B explained to everyone trying out that the longer it took to receive a phone call, the better. If you received a call right away, it wasn’t good news,” Carter said. “Later that day I received a phone call from coach and thought immediately that I wasn’t what they were looking for. It turned out they wanted to catch me before I flew out of Pennsylvania to negotiate a contract.”

Bertagnolli announced through the Rebellion website his delight in signing Carter. “Ashley is the type of player and a special young lady that we are looking for. She has speed, athleticism and a tremendous attitude,” he said. “The fact that she traveled from California for this tryout says a lot about her. She wants to win and contribute to the success of the team.” Her father John believes her daughter has what it takes to compete among the best players in the world, attributing her diligent work ethic to her success. “Something I always say to her is that dreams are unattainable, but goals aren’t,” he said. “I think she is phenomenal and she is standing out. She’s a hard working girl who works and stays in shape and I couldn’t be more proud of her.” As she reports to training in early May, Carter will be achieving her lifetime goal of stepping on the same field with many of her childhood idols. “I watched players like Cat Osterman and Caitlin Lowe growing up and to be on the same field with them and other olympians is crazy,” she said. “It’s been my dream for so long.”

magine exchanging phone numbers with the person next to you by simply tapping phones. It may be something you might expect in a sci-fi flick, but in all reality, the future is now. A group of San Bernardino entrepreneurs are hoping to use such technology, called near field communication, or NFC, to connect small businesses with students around the Cal State San Bernardino campus. The Revolve Project recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a $25,000 pilot program set to use NFC. The pilot program called Revolve Touch, will incorporate

NFC into several kiosks that will be strategically placed on and around campus to integrate social media check-ins for participating businesses. Participating businesses will place a kiosk at their establishment for students to utilize, and in return, students will be provided a coupon or discount for using the system. The idea is to offer small businesses the opportunity to gain exposure through social media platforms without drastically increasing their advertising budgets. Along with social media checkins, the technology will also have the ability to connect consumers with wifi connections from participating businesses. The kiosks will have a screen that can be cus-

tomized to display menus and other business information to participants. “We want to stir the economic pot,” says Cesar Gomez, Chief Operating Officer for the Revolve Project. “We want to prove that it works and if we can create an economic change for anybody, we need to do it for San Bernardino.” “The technology that we have, it’s going to be in all the new phones. We are really looking into the future as to how people interact,” says Gomez. “We want to connect people.” The Revolve Project will create a user interface for interested parties to sign up via the web and mobile applications. Gomez hopes to further develop

Walk/Run to promote Child Abuse Awareness Month

COURTESY PHOTO/CASA

CASA of San Bernardino County and Youth Action Project are hosting the 7th Annual Care 4 Kids Run and Community Resource Fair on Saturday, Apr. 12 at Guasti Regional Park in Ontario from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. in recognition of April as Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness Month.

By MJ Duncan

ASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) and Youth Action Project are collaborating once again this year to host the 7th Annual Care 4 Kids Run and Community Resource Fair on Saturday, Apr. 12 at Guasti Regional Park in Ontario from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. in recognition of April as Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness Month. CASA of San Bernardino County, a nonprofit organization established locally in 1984, aims to improve the lives of foster children and juvenile offenders with stable and consistent advocacy and mentoring provided through trained volunteers. In San Bernardino County there are approximately 4,000 children who live in foster care. They were abused and/or neglected and removed from their homes and families. As dependents of the court, these children pass through a court system which leaves them lost, confused and alone.

CASA volunteers advocate for the best interests of their assigned foster youth directly to the court. They communicate frequently with youth and often become the sole source of consistency in that child’s life. Additionally, volunteers advocate for their education, ensuring that they are in the appropriate grade level and appropriate school setting. According to CASA Community Outreach Manager Maggie Harris, there are between 120 – 140 youth who are in need of CASA volunteers. Joseph Williams, CEO of Youth Action Project, said he was compelled to partner with CASA in the Run four years ago when he realized that there were “too many young people who were not reading and doing math as well as they should be,” which he considers a form of child abuse and neglect. “It’s important that we get mentors and volunteers to help the youth in our community.” Youth Action Project works to empower San Bernardino's youth by developing the skills and habits

needed for economic and social success. It partners with CASA because they believe that neglecting education is detrimental for the individual’s mental, physical and emotional health, as well as their future. The goal of the upcoming Walk/Run event is to raise awareness about the plight of young people in the county, issues related to foster care, literacy, education, and community engagement. There will be resources available including those aimed at stemming violence against youth. The community is encouraged to participate in the family-friendly event and connecting with others to promote the safety and health of young people. The first 300 registrants will receive a free lunch courtesy of In N Out Burger. To register for the event or for more information about becoming a volunteer call CASA at (909) 881-6760 for more information, or visit www.casaofsb.org.

New boxing club brings youth, officers together for training, positive interaction

The Cops 4 Kids & Communities boxing program in Colton brings together Colton youth with law enforcement officers from various Inland Empire agencies for a great physical workout and strong rapport building interaction. They train Monday through Thursday from 4 to 6 p.m. at their facility at 1589 Bordwell, Unit C, in

new boxing club in Colton is offering youth not just a place to learn a sport and keep their minds occupied but also a way to get to know the men and women of law enforcement in a positive and rapport building environment. Based in Hemet, the Cops 4 Kids & Communities program is now in Colton through the efforts of Carlos Palomino and others who felt the need for a boxing program. Palomino worked with the Colton Police Department’s PAL boxing program from 1999 to 2010. “Kids were calling me and asking, ‘Coach, where can we go?’” Palomino said about why he felt the need to keep a boxing program going strong. Palomonio came across the Cops 4 Kids & Communities program and after a few years of effort and seeking support, the program finally found a home at 1589 Bordwell, Unit C. in Colton. “We feel at home here. The kids are happy,” he said.

Currently there are about 15 kids in the program ages, six to 17. The police officers that train kids are from various agencies in the Inland Empire, including Riverside Police, San Bernardino Police, San Bernardino County Sheriff and Rialto Police. And yes, the officers donate their time. “No one gets paid for this,” Palomoino said. Through the program, the kids learn more self-confidence, respect for officers and self-esteem, apart from how to stay physically fit. Palmonio shared the story of one particular young man in the past who began the program at a certain weight and sort of quiet and shy. Within a short time he had lost 25 pounds and was beaming with confidence and excitement. And through positive interaction kids and officers also establish positive relationships and rapport that is conducive to life-long respect and understanding. When kids get to know officers in a relaxed social environment out of uniform, it reminds them that they too are real people, just like them. When they eventually see officers in uniform they’ve already established the goodwill and positive rapport. Palmomino also emphasized some of the benefits of boxing itself. “In boxing, you’re the team,” he said about the individual effort and reward that comes with the sport. “There is no competition against others and parents are very supportive of each other. And for ‘Coach’, as he’s known, the program and his reasons for bringing it to Colton also have strong personal meaning; a desire to help kids avoid the pain and hardship that comes from making

poor choices for lack of guidance and productive ways to spend time. His own nephew Ray Acala Jr. was shot and killed in 1997 at the age of 17 in Fontana. The person who shot him was never caught. “If I can help even one kid….” Palomonio says, and leaves it at that through slightly misty eyes at the memory of his nephew who would have turned 35 on August 11, 2014. Overall, through the work of the police officer, supportive parents and young 20-something coaches, many of whom have been working with Palomino since their teens, the program has been a success. “I feel like we’ve accomplished something here,” Palomino said. “We’re making a difference.” Just ask 11-year-old Tommy Moreno, an avid young boxer. “It’s a good workout and it gets you in shape,” he said. “We spar and have lots of fun.” For the time being, the program costs $25 per month, but with more community support and more signups, the cost may go down. The program is in Colton but is open to youth from any city. And while Palomino was instrumental in bringing the program to Colton, he made it very clear that he could not have done it without the support of several businesses and individuals, including: Leno’s Rico Taco; Redlands Ford; Mr. Hae Park, the building owner; Colton Councilwoman Susan Oliva and Colton Mayor Sarah Zamora.

San Bernardino Advisory Committee aims to provide education on Rooftop Solar

By Anthony Victoria

olar energy advocates GRID Alternatives believe that the city of San Bernardino is need of a feel good story and positive impact. On Wednesday March 19 they held their first San Bernardino Advisory Committee with the purpose of raising awareness about their organization’s programs to reach and uplift low income homeowners and communities within the city’s boundaries. GRID Alternatives is a non-profit organization that focuses on rooftop solar panel installations, paying particular interest on low income families and communities while at the same time providing job training for volunteers and trainees seeking a career in the solar industry. The organization partners up with other nonprofits such as, Habitat for Humanity, Neighborhood Housing Services for the Inland Empire (NHSIE), and the Sierra Club. Representatives from all three organizations, along with Josue Castillo, field representative for California Assemblymember Cheryl Brown (47th District), the Sierra Club My Generation Campaign, members from the Center for Community Action and Environmental Justice (CCEJA) and Grid Alternatives IE Regional Director Bambi Tran and

Members of several community organizations and GRID Alternatives discuss ideas to inform residents about their rooftop solar programs during the San Bernardino Advisory Committee Meeting on March 19.

Outreach Coordinator Leida Chambliss rounded out the committee members. “One of the biggest challenges we have is legitimizing,” explained Stuart Haniff, Development Officer at the Grid Alternatives Inland Empire office. “A lot of times when programs are introduced in San Bernardino and we tell people about what we do, we have a hard time overcoming barriers of distrust or misunderstanding. The bottomline is we are trying to make residents realize that this is not a scam.” “People always state what’s the catch?. There is no catch,” Haniff

expressed. “If you qualify, it’s an opportunity for them to be impacted by our programs.” For Chambliss some of the strengths of their program is their creation of instant savings for homeowners through the use of solar panels and their hands on job training. She also informed those present at the meeting the importance of establishing partnerships with community leaders, volunteers, and homeowners. “As soon as the solar system is turned on, homeowners could watch their meters go backward and see immediate savings,” she said. “Most of our installations are

done via volunteers. We are licensed solar contractors, but our volunteer workforce are people who are going to college or are unemployed contractors. The support we have from these people is exceptional. They help us spread the message and validate the work that we do.” During the group discussion, there were several ideas that were brought up in relation to community outreach and education regarding rooftop solar installation. Councilmember Johnson emphasized holding town hall meetings with political leaders to provide more education and pro-

vide residents the opportunity to ask questions. Castillo reiterated the idea further by stating he was willing to canvas his ward to speak to his constituents. “We can make residents feel comfortable by engaging with them and proving them it is not a scam. Our offices are open and willing to help,” said Castillo. “We can have the same idea, but why not have an open forum,” said Agyemang. “Right now we’re doing a lot of thinking for them but why not let them voice their opinions?” Ericka Flores, a community organizer CCEJA said that the process won’t be easy and it may take a bold effort to gain the community’s trust. “We do host a lot of community meetings. It has taken years of investment to have these relationships with these residents,” she said. “We have built that trust. I think if you want to get the point across, there’s no other legitimate source than another community person. A town hall meeting is great, but there is a lot of skepticism. If you can’t get one person in the neighborhood to spread the word, it will provide a link.” The committee plans on holding quarterly meetings with the next planned meeting taking place in June.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-730-2727 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-13-563745-JP . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If

the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

Redlands Sunrise Rotary raises thousands at annual Crab N’ Jazz gala

By Yazmin Alvarez

he Redlands Sunrise Rotary Club recently held its largest fundraiser, Crab N’ Jazz, helping raise thousands in support of community and Rotarian programs for local youth. To highlight those that Rotary supports, the event was volunteer run with a total of 120 youth from local high schools and members from Yucaipa Rotary Club. Teens from Redlands East Valley, Redlands High, Citrus Valley, Grove and Arrowhead Christian took on the role of servers and entertainment was provided by Redlands High School’s jazz ensemble and Beattie Middle School’s jazz band to help make the seventh annual event at the Edwards Mansion a success.

While the event included its annual featured attraction--king crab-a few new elements were introduced this year, like smartphone bidding. A live auction headed by a Rotarian auctioneer from Seattle sold some big items like trips to Bali and dinners presented by Chef Laurant Baillon. The fundraising effort is the club’s major annual event that supports community projects and scholarships for students. Last year’s event helped raise $50,000. A portion of tickets sales from this year’s event will help fund the refurbishment efforts of a new facility for the areas homeless teens, a dozen $2,000 scholarships for local high school seniors, cover costs for summer camps for more than a dozen middle and high schoolers and

will also support Rotary’s Student-of-the-Month awards program, said Cheryl Evans, Crab N’ Jazz chairwoman. Ticket proceeds will also support Redlands Family Services Association along with Inland Harvest Food Bank, Evans added. The total raised at this year’s fundraiser was not available. “We’re eternally grateful for the support of club members and the generous community supporters that make our efforts possible,” said Evans.
