Arden-Carmichael News • May 14, 2021 • www.valcomnews.com
I love wildflowers. Love love love love LOVE them. As a kid, I scoured the folks’ woods for Spring Beauties, Trillium, wild violets, even … if I was reeeallly lucky … Little Boys Britches: creamy white wildflowers that look like tiny pantaloons bunched on stems. It was pointless to pick them, I knew. Wildflowers won’t last a day; they wilt that easily. But I always made a bouquet anyway for my mom, just to show her. She had a special little vase just for these bouquets, and put them in her kitchen window to look at as she did dishes. I’d never seen wild lupine ‘til I moved to California, and the first I saw here in West Sac. If you know the ‘borrow pit pond’ at the someday site of the California Indian Heritage Center ; the lupine was growing on the bank of that pond. If the big tree’s still there near the north end of the pond, it was about there where I saw it, not far from where you can take a dirt path, rather than the levee road, back to the river. I used to walk my dog along that path to bank fish (with zero luck) from Bryte Beach (opposite Discovery Park). I loved that trail. Especially fun was seeing turtles sunning on a log. Plop plop plop, off the log they’d go, as they heard us approaching.
There used to be a beaver family. So many kinds of birds. I haven’t been back there in a long, long time. Are lupine blooming now I wonder? On Next Door recently, I read our area is having a ‘Super Bloom’ this year. Northern California wildflowers you may see in abundance include our state flower, the California Poppy, lupine of assorted colors (don’t let your dog eat it. Some varieties are toxic, it seems, to everything but goats); wild geranium, mustard and much much more. A simple local walk in an ‘ungroomed’ area might let you see some, but if you’re up for a day trip that includes streams, pools and waterfalls, go to North Table Mountain. Just past Oroville, the North Table Mountain Ecological Reserve is located in Butte County. Open from dawn to dusk, The reserve’s trails require a day pass if you’re 16 or older, unless you have a valid hunting license. Organized youth groups, such as schools, and adults with them don’t need a pass, but a permit is required. For more information, Google search Visiting North Table Mountain Ecological Reserve. Like the Yolo County Bypass Area, the reserve is managed by the California Dept. of Fish and Wildlife. The self-guided walks
are free and you can bring your dog. A little history: Table Mountain is made up of volcanic rock! And in many places, you can see it! Have to wonder how many ancient animals are trapped in as fossils. Fossils. Another fascinating topic! Be aware, though, that no collecting of any kind is allowed at Table Mountain – no rocks/ minerals, no plants, no artifacts, no fossils. Dogs have to be on-leash. Ten feet max, no longer. This is a huuuuge reserve: 3,300 acres, give or take. The ancient lava flows resulted in an elevated mesa. From it, you can see wildflowers, waterfalls, lava outcrops, seasonal streams and vernal pools. Rare Northern Basal Flow Vernal Pools appear due to impermeable hardened lava. Usually, fissures in the lava (basalt) soak up winter rains. In the spring: voila, streams and waterfalls. These water sources ultimately dry up. Only certain animals and plants have evolved to survive this habitat over time. You’ll also see cattle grazing. For safety, stay at least 300 feet away. Grazing cows help control invasive plant species and protect the reserve’s spectacular array of wildflowers. IF YOU GO: Here’s a downside: There are no restrooms or trash receptasee This ‘n’ That page 3 Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.

cles, so pick up after both your dog and you, then throw it away at home. Like in any beautiful natural area, you’ll want to help keep North Table Mountain pristine for the next person.

You may see deer and other wildlife at North Table Mountain.

Remembering “The Root Beer King” Doc’s Place drive-in was a favorite among locals, others By Lance Armstrong

Arden-Carmichael News • May 14, 2021 • www.valcomnews.com
As a place rich in history, East Sacramento was once home to a very notable roadside, root beer and hot dogselling business known as Doc’s Place, at 5201 Folsom Blvd., in the Italian section of that area. Research for this article revealed that this business made its debut at that address in about June 1930 – thus making this story a nine decadeold one, and counting. Historic photographs of this East Sacramento building show the words, “Doc’s Place: The Root Beer King,” on its exterior. Historic documentations show that “The Root Beer King” nickname was interchangeable for either the business or its original owner, James Robert “Doc” Campbell. An advertisement introducing Doc’s Place was published in the June 28, 1930 edition of The Sacramento Bee. The article describes a different world, in which a much greater number of automobiles on Sacramento’s roads had led to increased automotive activity along the city’s boulevards. In earlier times, local businesses were centered along J and K streets. But Campbell recognized changing times and relocated his root beer and hot dog establishment eastward to Folsom Boulevard in East Sacramento. The advertisement mentions that commuting by automobile in the city, at that time, came with inconveniences such as “stop and go” signals, 40-minute parking limits, and business operators who were opposed to long-term parking in front of their buildings.
Continuing, the advertisement notes: “Mr. Campbell has overcome those conditions by giving his patrons a ‘drive-in drink station’ and lots of parking spaces. He hopes to meet all his customers on the boulevard, the only one of which one may take a short drive in one direction and return another way.” In a 2010 interview with the East Sacramento News, Doc Campbell’s son, James Robert “Jim” Campbell Jr. (19322018), mentioned that his father received the nickname, “Doc,” because he was also locally renowned for offering special remedies for illnesses. Jim Campbell also noted, in 2010, that his father, who was born in Jamestown, Pennsylvania on Dec. 10, 1889, began working long before he opened Doc’s Place. “My father left home when he was very young – probably 13 years old or so – and just hustled on the road,” he said. “He just freelanced around and later joined the Army. That’s where he met my mother, over in Europe. He met her in Nice, France and then later went back and got her.” Jim additionally told this paper that while living in Sacramento in the 1920s, his father learned the root beer and hot dog trade from a man in today’s Old Sacramento. “My father worked for a guy down on Front Street,” he said. “[The business] was called Big Al’s – no, actually, it was called Big Jim’s – and that guy sold hot dogs and root beer. My dad, more or less, got the idea [for Doc’s Place] from him.” Doc Campbell later operated his own root beer and hot dog business on the bottom floor of a two-story building that was owned by two sis-
ters, Emma and Rose Elliott, at 1600 L St. On Oct. 4, 1928, The Bee reported:“Mr. Robert Campbell, 16th and L streets, Sacramento, known as The Hot Dog and Root Beer King, has leased his stand for one year, and is now touring European countries.” After returning to the United States in May 1929, Doc headed to Paris about a month later to marry the woman – Paulette Dissat – who he had met while he was in the Army. The Bee, in its June 1, 1929 edition, noted: The future Mrs. Campbell cannot speak a word of English, and Campbell has a French vocabulary of about a dozen words. Campbell is known here as ‘ The Root Beer King,’ having been proprietor of Doc’s Root Beer Stand at Sixteenth and L streets before he started on his journeys.” The couple was married in Paris on June 6, 1929. Contrary to Jim Campbell’s words, The Bee, in its Sept. 25, 1929 edition, mentioned that Campbell met Paulette during his previous trip to Europe, when he visited 15 countries, but spent the majority of his time in Paris. It was also on Sept. 25, 1929 that Doc and Paulette arrived in Sacramento for the first time, following their marriage. Soon thereafter, Doc prepared to return to his life as “The Root Beer King.” But this time, he would operate his business in East Sacramento. Jim told the East Sacramento News that the construction of this East Sacrasee King page 5 Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.
King:
continued from page 4
mento building was unusual, noting that it was actually a reconstruction project that began with an old house that had been used as a laundry business. He said that building was cut in half, and half of the house that was located in a nearby field was moved closer to Folsom Boulevard, which was along the route of the old Highway 50. Much of the partial house structure, which Jim said was built sometime in the 1920s, was stripped away and replaced with new features. That project included the placement of the marquee around the gable roof. Once Doc’s Place was ready for business, Joe Pesce, who was Doc’s good friend and his children’s godfather, sold his 1922 home alongside the new eatery to Doc, so that Doc and his family could live nearby Doc’s Place. During an interview with this paper last week, East Sacramento native Gloria (DaPrato) Tomei, 90, fondly recalled Doc’s Place. “It was a wonderful place,” she said. “It was a wonderful outing for everybody in the vicinity. Everybody that I knew always went there for a hot dog and a root beer float. But it was a great place. “And I remember (Doc) well, and his wife was a beautiful woman. His daughter (Mildred) used to talk about the mother all the time.” Another East Sacramento native Deno Paoli, 95, last week, recalled occasionally joking around with Doc at his business. “I used to tease him a bit, (asking), ‘How the hell did you get in an Italian neighborhood?’ But I didn’t (tease him) a lot. Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.
“I know he used to sell root beer and I loved root beer. Sometimes I just had the root beer, but sometimes they made me a root beer float, because they sold ice cream there, too. I used to love those root beer floats.” Paoli added that he additionally remembers seeing Paulette Campbell at Doc’s Place. “I remember seeing Doc’s wife (at Doc’s Place), but she was kind of in the background.” Doc continued operating Doc’s Place for an entire decade, Jim Campbell explained. “My father figured that he would retire, since he had paid off everything and had made enough money and developed enough properties to take care of himself and his family for the rest of his life,” he said. With that decision, Doc Campbell, who by then owned properties and buildings on all four corners of 52nd Street and Folsom Boulevard, sold his business to Claude S. Inman, who resided at 1472 52nd St. Throughout the years, the business continued to prosper as Doc’s Place – with the exception of one year when its name was briefly changed. The latter owners were John J. Corsiglia (mid1940s), Nicholas Bruno (late 1940s), George E. Lampman (1952 to about 1956), Frank P. Carlino (operated as Frank’s Restaurant in 1957) and Jim Campbell (1959-60). Doc’s Place, which was also serving hamburgers by at least the early 1950s, was closed by Jim Campbell in about 1961, ending the business’s three-decadelong reign as one of the city’s more popular eateries. Today, the building is home to The Shack restaurant, a popular spot for food and beer.
Doc Campbell, shown in this late 1940s photograph, opened his popular root beer and hot dog eatery, Doc’s Place, at 5201 Folsom Blvd. in 1930.

gion. Donations from last year’s Doggy Dash helped the Sacramento SPCA provide direct care to more than 30,000 animals in 2020. With restrictions still in place for large group events due to the pandemic, the Sacramento SPCA is hosting its largest community event and fundraiser of the year virtually for a second year in a row. “Just because we can’t walk side by side, doesn’t mean we can’t still walk together to save lives,” said Dawn Foster, Sacramento SPCA Marketing & Communications Director. An estimated 5,000 animal lovers usually gather at William Land Park for this special event each year, with and without their canine companions – to raise funds for animals at the Sacramento SPCA and enjoy pet-friendly vendors, dem-
onstrations, contests, food trucks, beer garden, local entertainment and more! Pet enthusiasts living far and wide are encouraged to join the Sacramento SPCA on June 5, 2021 from their homes, neighborhoods, parks and trails for the 2k/5k walk and also connect online to share photos and enjoy the event’s live broadcast and pet festival. “By participating in our own communities, people and dogs (and even cats!) who would not normally be able to participate at William Land Park, can now do so,” added Foster. The virtual event will be kicked off on the shelter’s Facebook page at facebook.com/SacSPCA at 9 a.m. on June 5th; participants will hear from the Sacramento SPCA’s CEO, see SPCA page 9

Doggy Dashers are encouraged to share photos and video of them and their dogs walking and participating in the event’s activities throughout the day using the hashtag #SSPCADASH2021. As the only full-service 100% nonprofit animal shelter in the Sacramento region, the Sacramento SPCA relies on donations from individuals, businesses and foundations to support their work. They are local, independent, and do not receive funding from state or local government agencies. Supporting this year’s Virtual Doggy Dash by walking, sharing or donating will help Sacramento SPCA continue to give more than shelter to the animals who need it most.

Weekend Warriors at Skip’s Music returns for its 40th season By Monica Stark editor@valcomnews.com
The following is not a personal ad, but you might take this personally. And if you answer, “yes”, to any of the questions, you might want to keep reading… Are you between the ages of 40 and 70? (That’s the popular age range, but it’s not a requirement to be between those ages.) Have you ever wanted to be in a band but never had the opportunity? Do you have some time to rehearse with a band but still want a life (and still want to keep your day job)? From an exhibition contractor to an auto dealer, to a podiatrist and a public affairs specialist, amateur musicians and hobbyists, ages 21 and older, are welcome to join Skip’s Music Weekend Warriors. Master coaches have included Brad Lang from RATT, drummer Steve Brown from Oleander and Roger Smith from Tower of Power.
Since Skip’s Music first launched the Weekend Warrior Program in 1991, the Sacramento community has seen decades of musicians rise to local stages. The concept has also caught on in the industry allowing for it to be licensed to other music retailers throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia.
“Weekend Warriors is so much more than a program at Skip’s Music. It may have started as such, but it has blossomed into something much more elegant,” said Judy Bauder, a veteran Warrior. “In the 10-plus rounds that I’ve participated in, I’ve gained a lot of music and performance skills

and experience you really can’t get anywhere else.” The upcoming summer program lasts eight weeks, whereby musicians are placed into bands with similar music tastes. They are given a rehearsal time, practice space, instruments, equipment, and a coach to keep everyone on the beat. Finally, the program will finish with a concert in front of friends, family and the public live on Sunday, Aug. 1. Many participants over the years have been women and men returning to music after years of putting their passion in the background as other commitments, such as family and work, have taken precedence. Weekend Warriors provides an easy opportunity to return to music without making any other sacrifices. Regular Warrior, Scott Hamilton, summarized the program as, “Great musicians, killer Skip’s coaches and a fun time performing songs I love see Skip’s page 11
