Julian High’s annual Senior Class Auction, now in it’s 26th year took over the Multipurpose room at the High School for the live auction, some refreshments and an evening of bidding on over 100 items in the live auction. 138 items were available during the silent auction held in room 4 the first 60 minutes of the evening. From gift certificates to local favorites, The Birdwatcher, Mom’s Pies, Julian Bookhouse, Apple Alley Bakery, Wynola Pizza, many a bargain was scooped up in the silent auction. Although a few items did exceed their listed value. The most intriguing items available had to be the collections of Cedar and Fir tree seedlings from Mickayla Martin, over 30 trees ready to start your own forest. Mrs. Kuiper and Mrs. Wylie, this years Senior class advisors did an outstanding job motivating the students to get out into the community and solicit donations for the auction with over 170 businesses and individuals contributing items. Some got great bargains, some got what they came for and showed their true spirit by bidding over the posted values. Final total of the money raised was not available at the time of this writing, but a rough survey of the evening and you can be assured the Senior class will be pleased with the outcome. Although the multi-purpose room was not standing room only there were plenty of friends, family and community members who took advantage of the evenings offerings, including the Pizza and cookies, punch and other refreshments. The also showed their generosity by opening their wallets and checkbooks to make sure that the auction was a success.

Thank You Friends The Julian Branch Library would like to thank the Friends of the Library for supporting us in so many ways. You often see the many programs that they help to sponsor, but this week we are acknowledging the many books (and DVD’s) that they purchase for the branch. There is a book buying committee that recommends books to be purchased for the community. Ultimately, the branch librarian has final say over what is being purchased based on demand and popularity and what will be used by members of the community. This week, we received 24 new books, fiction and nonfiction that will be processed and on the shelves by the time continued on page 11

One could argue that the great days of apple farming in Julian are gone, unless you happened to attend JAGA's third annual pruning clinic last Saturday. The Julian Apple Growers Association, a community-based group dedicated to tending and promoting Julian apples, offers several clinics throughout the year. Saturday's clinic featured master orchardist Ray Meyer instructing on how to prune fruit trees for proper growth and fruit production. Ray has fifty years experience in farming, most of it here in Julian. Students were given the opportunity to practice their skills on the trees of clinic host, Bill Storum. A grafting and planting clinic will occur in April. Judging from the number of people who attended Saturday's event, apple growing in Julian is alive and well. For information on the next clinic, please contact Teak Nichols, teaknich@gmail.com

The fifth grade at Julian Elementary School is studying about the hydrologic cycle, the process by which water moves between the land and the oceans. They are encouraged to ask questions and discover answers that they can later discuss in class. In order to connect the science standards to real life, the fifth grade went on a field trip to William Heise County Park. The students were able to take a short hike, lead by knowledgable park staff, and were encouraged to reach conclusions using their own observations. They hiked to Fern Creek where they took small water samples that they could later study under a microscope in class. Of course they played in the large field, encountered a running deer, and asked a multitude of questions. The experience has enhanced the learning in class and has fifth grade students begging to return to Heise park! The class would like to extend their thanks to Supervising Ranger David Moniz and Park Attendant Luke Smith for making their visit so memorable.
