Arden-Carmichael News • April 14, 2017 • www.valcomnews.com

Crestview Village, the 18.2-acre shopping center at the northeast corner of Manzanita Avenue and Winding Way, is a much different place than it was when it opened 54 years ago.

Gone are original businesses such as W.T. Grant Co., Lucky supermarket and Thrifty Drug Store. And today, the center is home to a variety of other businesses, as well as a large amount of vacant store spaces.

Crestview Village changed ownership four years ago when Richard Holesapple, one of the center’s original principal owners, sold it to a partnership of The Evergreen Co. Last week, the Arden-Carmichael News visited Crestview Village for the purpose of collecting details about current businesses and memories about the center.

In making the tour from the north side to the south side of the center, the News’ first stopped at Big 5 Sporting Goods at 4794 Manzanita Ave., Suite 1.

Big 5 manager Danny Palacio said that this location of the Big 5 chain has been in operation for about 20 years.

Although Palacio was not familiar with the early history of the center, he was not surprised to learn some details about those early years in the 1960s.

“That makes sense; shopping centers do tend to be very old,” he said.

Longtime shoppers at this center may recall when this Big 5 site was occupied by a Lucky supermarket.

An advertisement in the October 30, 1963 edition of The Sacramento Bee men-

tions this then-new, 20,000-square-foot location as offering such specials as a 1pound package of margarine for 10 cents, an 18-ounce jar of peanut butter for 49 cents, three 46-ounce cans of Lady Lee brand pineapple-grapefruit juice for 69 cents, and six packages of River Valley brand frozen vegetables for $1.

Lucky remained at its first Manzanita Avenue location until 1998, when it relocated to a 62,000-square-foot store on the north side of the center.

Next door to Big 5, in Suite 2, is the vacant business space that once housed the N.Y. Grand Buffet, which offered mostly Asian food items. The eatery also mixed in food of other cultures such as pizza, spaghetti and tacos.

In the mid-2000s, the cost to dine at N.Y. Grand Buffet ranged from $5.95 to $10.75, depending on the time and day of the week.

Big 5 employee Shey Lee recalled visiting this eating establishment with his parents in the late 1990s.

“It was a Chinese buffet and it had a lot of food, a lot of everything,” he said. “They had all those open (food trays). Places like that are a little pricey, but for what you get, it’s usually a good deal.”

Another Big 5 employee stated that this restaurant remained in operation until about 2013.

A county Environmental Management Department health and safety inspection sign on a window of this site is dated May 4, 2010 and includes the word, “pass.”

The next stop of the tour of this center occurred at another vacant store space at 4792 Manzanita Ave. This site was most recently the home of Danek’s Crestview Bakery, See Crestview, page 3 Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.

which was opened by Ron and Becky Danek in 1979.

After taking over a German bakery – the Karl Hiawaty-owned Karl’s Pastry Shop – at the same site, the Daneks operated their business for nearly 30 years.

Ron, who graduated from Del Campo High School in 1969 and died at the age of 70 in 2008, arrived at his business very early each morning to create baked goods by scratch.

Alongside the former bakery space, at 4790 Manzanita Ave., is Elizabeth Salon, which manicurist Kathy Dang said has been in operation at that site for about 20 years.

As early as the late 1970s, this space was home to another hair salon, which was known as Kaleidoscope. The original business that operated at this site was Gene Nelson Beauty & Wig Salon.

Another vacant store space at 4780 Manzanita Ave. was home to Famous Footwear until about 2015.

In earlier years, this site housed Crestview Shoe Repair and later served as the office of Flair Homes, Inc. custom builders, which constructed homes in Sacramento, Yolo, Placer, Yuba, Sutter, Solano and Amador counties.

During the News’ visit to Crestview Barber Shop at 4768 Manzanita Ave., Tom Gray said that he purchased the business in 1999 from a man named Ben. As early as 1964, Household Finance Corp. occupied the same business space.

Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.

But Gray noted that Crestview Barber Shop actually dates back to the same decade, having previously been located in the center at 4778 Manzanita Ave. The 1965 Sacramento suburban directory lists Howell D. Vincent as the barber shop’s owner at that address.

The next stop on the News’ tour was to Hungry Hollow Café, which maintains the Monday through Saturday hours of 7 a.m. to 2:45 p.m.

Gray said that this restaurant, which is located at 4766 Manzanita Ave., is among the longtime operating businesses in the center.

The earliest reference to this business found during research for this chapter is a 1978 public notice that Gary Carlo and Julie Ann Rimoldi would be “doing business under the fictitious business name of Hungry Hollow, 4766 Manzanita (Ave.).”

And in its Sept. 18, 1997 edition, The Bee recognizes that this eatery had then-been under the proprietorship of Harmina and Howell Vincent since about 1982.

To the east of Hungry Hollow are three consecutive vacant business spaces: 4764 Manzanita Ave., the former site of Small World Imports and Crestview Florist; 4762-B, formerly an Arthur Murray Dance Studio; and 4762-A, most recently a home school testing center.

The address of 4762 Manzanita Ave. was originally the longtime site of See Shopping Center, page 4 www.valcomnews.com • April 14, 2017 • Arden-Carmichael News

Shopping Center: Continued from page 3

The Countryman men’s and women’s clothing shop.

For many years, 4760 Manzanita Ave. has been home to Ross Dress for Less. The site was also once home to Grant’s Department Store and Lawrence’s Department Store.

Another vacant store space at 4758 Manzanita Ave. most recently housed the Dress Barn women’s clothing shop. It was originally home to Sally Shops women’s clothing store.

During a visit to Amazing Tans at 4744 Manzanita Ave., the News’ met Amanda Harlow, a 2016 graduate of Rio Americano High School.

Lic# 344700003

Arden-Carmichael News • April 14, 2017 • www.valcomnews.com

Harlow said that Amazing Tans draws a lot of return customers, some of whom patronized the previous location of this business.

Continuing with the tour, the News stopped by Payless ShoeSource, which opened at 4742 Manzanita Ave. about 18 years ago; and 4740 Manzanita Ave., home to Sally Beauty, a retail beauty supply store, which is associated with the commercial beauty supply business, Cosmoprof.

The Payless site originally housed Martyr & Curry office supplies and a U.S. Postal Service substation.

Laws Studio of photography at 4738 Manzanita Ave. dates back to at the mid-1960s in Crestview Village when it was located at 4726 Manzanita Ave. And a company profile notes that this business was founded in 1953.

The much newer Bath & Body Works conducts its business at 4736 Manzanita Ave. And operating at an early time at that location was Serene Fabrics.

Other current Crestview shops are Avenue, a women’s apparel store at 4734; and Subway at 4712. And flanked by those stores at 4728 is a vacant space that formerly housed a Hallmark cards and stationery store.

The anchor business of the center is Save Mart Supermarket at 4708 Manzanita Ave., where Lucky supermarket’s aforementioned second Crestview site was located. Save Mart opened in this location about 17 years ago, said a 16-year veteran employee of that store.

Longtime Crestview shoppers may recall Pied Piper Toys & Gifts, a 4,810square-foot toy, hobbies and crafts store that operated in

the current Avenue space.

Others remember the center’s later established business, KB Toys.

Research for this chapter included the discovery of other businesses that were located in Crestview Village.

Those businesses include: Allstate Insurance, Baskin Robbins Ice Cream, Bouza’s Baby News, Carmichael Jewelers, College Hi Shop, Gallenkamp shoe store, King’s Smorga Table, Lord’s & Knights Tailor Shoppe, Gloria Marshall Figure Salon, Moss & Moss Realtors, Nan Long Apparel Salon, The Red Witch teen apparel, Sargent’s Sports Shop, Wells Fargo Bank, Les Williams’ Chevron station, and Williams Shoe Fashions.

Another well-remembered business of the center was the Cinema 150 Theatre, which had its gala opening, with a showing of the film, “Oklahoma!,” on Sept. 2, 1966.

In its latter years, this single-screen, 775-seat theater had a short stint as a vaude-

ville house and served as a popular place to view second-run films.

Jamie Baker, a 2000 graduate of Del Campo High School, said that he remembers seeing “RoboCop 2” at the Crestview theater.

During a recent visit to Crestview Village, Judy (Levene) Harris, a 1967 Del Campo High School graduate, mentioned that she came to this shopping center in the 1960s.

And in focusing on the vacancies of the center, Harris noted that she desires to see Crestview Village’s prosperity improve.

“We really liked (the center) back (in its early years),” she said. “It was busy and there were always people around.

And there was Lucky, and the bowling alley was across the street. (The center has) changed quite a bit with the vacancies. It’s so sad. I like the shopping center (concept) and I would like to see those (vacant) shops filled and the center continue for many years.”

The band does this every year because “we are dedicated to keeping the banjo popular and presenting music that has a great tune and words that can be understood and enjoyed.” If you wish to contact the group to play at your venue, to help promote the Banjo-Rama, contact Ben Dale at 392-0139.

Woodlake Elementary School students participated in Ag Day at the Capitol UnitedHealthcare and the California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom (CFAITC) hosted a fun, one-mile walk around Capitol Park as part of the annual Ag Day at the Capitol, which brings thousands of people to Sacramento to celebrate California agriculture.

UnitedHealthcare mascot Dr. Health E. Hound led the walk, joined by nearly 100 kids and their teachers. Along the route, students waved homemade signs and posters, which they made in their classrooms, and rang cowbells to help raise awareness about the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables

and highlight the importance of nutrition, physical fitness and healthy living. “ This is the first time we’ve incorporated a healthy walk during Ag Day, and we are so grateful for the support from UnitedHealthcare,” said Judy Culbertson, executive director of CFAITC. “ This fun walk, along with all the activities here at Ag Day, helps encourage kids to learn more about the benefits from eating California agricultural products, and the importance of nutrition and exercise in their daily lives.”

riculture in the Classroom to support this healthy, fun walk at the state Capitol and highlight nutritious fruits and vegetables grown here in California,” said Kevin Kandalaft of UnitedHealthcare. “It’s wonderful to see the students get excited about nutrition and taking important steps forward to live healthier lives.”

Ag Day at the Capitol takes place each March during National Nutrition Month. The event is organized by the California Department of Food and Agriculture, California Women in Agriculture and CFAITC with support from more than 50 agriculture, food, health and nutrition organizations.

The event featured farm animals, nutritious food, entertainment and educational booths representing various aspects of California agriculture on the steps and front lawn of the Capitol. UnitedHealthcare also hosted a healthy fruits and vegetables children’s coloring booth where Dr. Health E. Hound helped kids learn about nutritious foods grown in California. The students also drew their favorite ones on paper fans, which they used to cool off during the day.

UnitedHealthcare serves more than 3.7 million people in California with a network of 368 hospitals and more than 98,000 physicians and other care providers statewide.

Faces and Places:

Marcy Friedman art show Photos by Maggie Rose McGurk Photo Art 2017 www.natsoulas.com

In her inaugural exhibition at the John Natsoulas Gallery, now through April 15, Carmichael resident Marcy Friedman demonstrates her fascination with the figure. Although the paintings feature portraits of Friedman’s friends and colleagues in the art world and of well-known community leaders and politicians in the greater Sacramento region, the paintings concentrate more on the figure in space than on pure portraiture. It is Friedman’s ability to capture the spirit of the individual in a hyper-realistic manner and still show their humanity that is the basis of her work.

Friedman, extensively educated on the history of textiles, integrates textile designs into her paintings: in the towels or blankets against which the model sits or reclines, on the clothing, or on a background for the seated or reclining figure. Pat Mahoney says of Friedman: “She’s a student of the figure and is interested in the figure in space.”

Friedman, originally from Hawaii, took her first life drawing class at Stanford (class of 1956), and later studied at Sacramento City College and with artist Benny Barrios, an icon of the period. She continued her art studies until, in 1973, when she turned her attention to family needs and to playing an important role in community art affairs. It is for our great benefit that in 2012 Friedman again took up her painting, helping form a group of figurative painters who meet regularly at Pat Mahony’s studio to paint the nude figure. The group has included Pat Mahony, Boyd Gavin, Fred Dalkey, Marcy Friedman, and Jian Wang.

Shown here are photos from the reception, which was held on Saturday, March 25.

A “chill” teen space Teens can be teens at The Silver Orange

By Laura I. Winn

The new teen center in East Sacramento, The Silver Orange, is a place where teens can be teens and parents don’t have to worry about what that means.

Open for ages 11 to 17, The Silver Orange (922 57th St.) is a “chill space” for teens to hang out, play video games, shoot pool, sing Karaoke, jam with the band, create some art or play any number of board games. As an affiliate of AxIS (Applied Integrated Services), certified behavior analysts Will Morris, Emily Weller and Christina Huggett own and run The Silver Orange with a mostly hands-off approach. Tuesday through Saturday from 2 p.m. to 10 or 11 p.m., they open their doors to the teens, but it’s up to the teens to take responsibility for themselves once inside.

Morris’ own teens were the inspiration for the center. At ages 13 and 15, they love to play in their band, Wise Anna, and shoot pool, but finding teenfriendly music venues, as well as billiards tables outside of bars was a challenge. The Silver Orange was the solution.

“We saw a niche in the market that wasn’t being filled,” explained Weller, 26, a former special education teacher.

Photos by Stephen Crowley / stephen@valcomnews.com

In addition to serving as an alternative to an after school program, the center has a special focus on the arts. Every fourth Friday is open to the public for Open Mic, and every public Second Saturday concert showcases a local artist’s work for sale. On Saturday, April 8, The Silver Orange will host the UnderRage Music Fest after party.

Performance nights gives teens and pre-teens like 11-year-old Mak a chance to step on stage in a welcoming environment. Watching other youth go first during March’s Open Mic night gave a nervous Mak

the confidence to take the first step in fulfilling her dream to be the next Taylor Swift by singing Pink’s “Who Knew.”

New to the center, Mak was footing the bill for herself and her two older brothers to hang out on a Tuesday, the center’s slowest day. Some days see as few as five kids while busier days range from 15 to 30 teens spread across the center’s art, computer and game rooms. The brothers enjoyed kicking See Teen Center, page 14

School News San Juan Unified schools lead state at Science Olympiads Science Olympiad 2017 San Juan Unified schools came in strong at the Science Olympiad tournament on April 1 at California State University, Stanislaus.

The tournament brought together finalists consisting of the top 28 teams from schools across Northern California to compete in science and engineering events, including tower building, anatomy, food science, optics and rocket building.

Mira Loma has been to the nationals several times

over the competition’s 30year history and will be the returning national champions. They will compete against the top teams from Ohio, Illinois, Texas and Southern California.

This will be Winston Churchill’s seventh year in a row as state champions and the 11th time at a national tournament. Last year, the school was second in the nation for middle schools.

A victory this year would be the school’s first national title.

back on the rec room’s couch to play video games. The room also features air hockey, ping pong, Foosball, and of course, pool. For the guys, the “cheap snacks” which range from $0.25 to $2, was one of the best perks.

keep the prices low,” explained Morris, 41.

Teens can come on a $7 day pass or receive a deep discount by buying a month, threemonth or year pass, which all lower the daily rate to under $4. Currently, the most popular option is the $28 5-day pass, which allows teens to drop in on the days of their choosing, such as the day of their favorite class or activity.

Arden-Carmichael News • April 14, 2017 • www.valcomnews.com

On Tuesdays, teens can learn to make fanzines, on Wednesdays there’s guitar and Rubik’s Cube lessons and Fridays see the biggest draw for Dungeons and Dragons.

For some teens, the weekly groups are a chance to increase their skill in a favorite hobby, and for others, like 15-year-old Josephine, the activities spark new interests.

When Josephine first came to The Silver Orange during the center’s soft open in January, she recalled she had little prior experience with a Rubik’s Cube. Now, she’s a “Rubik’s graduate” and is trying her hand at guitar.

“I like The Silver Orange because it’s a great place to meet friends. I come on my own accord. As an independent study student, coming

here has helped me be more social,” she said.

Josephine’s grandmother, Petra Wynbrandt, said she appreciates the center because it’s a safe, affordable place that gets Josephine out of the house, expands her interests, has helped her be more social and “lets me have date night!”

The center is especially popular with home-schooled and independent study students. On the first and third Fridays of the month, The Silver Orange opens early for home-schoolers to use the center, including special hours for children under 11 to attend with supervising adults.

“We’re providing a social and creative outlet for these home-school kids,” explained Weller.

More than just a hang-out spot, Weller and Morris see The Silver Orange as a place where teens develop skills and talents for the future.

“Maybe one day we’ll have a set of teens graduate from the center who come back and run things,” said Morris.

“That would be awesome!”
