“Faces of Freedom” Veterans Memorial

Located near the Atascadero Lake Park, the construction of the beautiful “Faces of Freedom” Veterans Memorial was initiated by the Atascadero Veterans Memorial Foundation. A 501C3 Non Profit Organization, the AVMF was founded specifically to design and to build a World Class Veterans Memorial here on the California Central Coast with a completed value of nearly $1,000,000. Built to honor all of America’s Veterans, the Memorial has three unique components: Hero’s Wall, the “Faces of Freedom” Statue, and “The Pathway to Freedom.” The Hero’s Wall specifically honors over 231 San Luis Obispo County Veterans who have paid the ultimate price with their selfless service and sacrifice to our nation. The “Faces of Freedom” Statue represents an artistic timeline that honors our nations’ military heroes from WWI to the present. The final component is “The Pathway to Freedom” a 20,000+ engraved brick pathway that leads to and embraces the Veterans Memorial. The Pathway’s purpose is to provide a place to honor both Veterans and Active Military in two ways: First of all, bricks may be engraved with the name of someone who currently serves or has served this great Nation; Second, it gives those who have not served an opportunity to show their support for our Veterans through a family or business brick. These engraved brick Atascadero Magazine

pavers are still available and can be reserved and installed for a $100 donation to the Memorial Foundation. Anyone interested in reserving an engraved paver is invited to use the order form below or to go to our website at: www.FacesofFreedomMemorial.org For more information call 805-461-0639.

Instructor: Karen Clanin, 466-3775 or kclanin@sbcglobal.net

Ages: 12 & up

Karen Clanin has been instructing classes at all levels since 1969 and started instructing for the City of Atascadero in 1979. The Beginning Dog Obedience class will cover sit-stand-down, walking on a leash with out pulling, come when called, sit & down stay. Karen’s methods are mostly positive reinforcement, making the learning fun for the owner as well as the dog. For the 1st class, bring your dog on the collar you have and the leash you have (no harnesses please). Proper equipment will be discussed the first class. Also, bring a smelly, tasty, easy to swallow training treat. Karen suggests keeping the treats in a fanny pack so they are easy to get to. A copy of your dog’s immunization record, available from your vet, must be brought to the first class for Karen to keep. Class is scheduled for 1 hour, but may run over slightly so please allow the time. Children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult as they may require assistance. This class is not for aggressive dogs, if you have a questions about this contact Karen and she may meet you privately for evaluation. Please no wolf or wolf-hybrids in class. W W W

Line dancing is a choreographed sequence of steps performed in unison by several dancers all facing the same direction in parallel lines. Studies have shown Line Dancing in particular to be a great help in areas of memory, balance cardiovascular and vertigo. You never need a partner and have lots of fun and get great exercise without knowing it. This class is on-going! Drop-in fee is $5.50/class. Punch passes are good for any classes/days and do not expire. Punch passes can only be purchased at the Community Center, 5599 Traffic Way.

Classical Music Appreciation

Instructor: Ron Tarica, 466-3146

Ages: 18 & up

Ron Tarica’s Listening to Music series of classes consists of eight separate classes. This term he will present the series from the beginning with Classes 1 & 2 described below. 1. Listening to Music-Introductory Class-many people say they wish they knew more about classical music. If you are one of them, this course is for you! This is the first course in a series of classical music appreciation classes. Material will be presented via lecture, listening and class discussion. The introductory class covers basic music concepts and vocabulary, followed by an overview of Western classical music from the earliest times to today with emphasis from the year 1600 forward. Some historical perspective and composer biographies will be provided. However, the emphasis of the course will be on the listening experience and rewards it can bring in today’s hectic world. 2. Music of the Baroque Period-The second class in the Listening to Music series will focus on Music of the Baroque Period, roughly 1600-1750. Music and biographies of the composers of this time, including Bach, Handel, Purcell, Vivaldi, Telemann and others, will be presented. We will listen to and discuss some of the great works of the period-vocal (cantatas, oratorios) as well as instrumental (concertos, sonatas), sacred as well as secular, and smaller as well as larger compositions.
