Raising animals for market is a long standing tradition in the Future Farmers of Wine & Art Show America organization. Members purchase May 3 butcher animals and spend months feeding, conditioning and working with their animals, all for the final goal of selling their animal at a Junior Livestock Auction. Most save the proceeds from the sale for college or to help them their future ventures.

For 34 years seven Colusa High School Juniors, seven Seniors and seven inspiring teachers who were nominated by the Super Seven students, are honored at a special dinner to honor the students for their outstanding academic record. Several of the seniors and teachers were honored at the S.S.D last year as well.

The S.S.D originated in 1975 based on a proposal by Florence Stevens, President of the Colusa Women’s Club. The Club continued the tradition for 22 years until the club disbanded. Gamma Alpha Master Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi resumed the program in 1998 and have since been joined

Opinion Mother goose

By Andrea Moore, Editor It seems that in our culture, we are constantly watching every word that we say, worried that someone might take offense or misinterpret our meaning. This is especially true in religion. While my family is pretty conservative, we respect the rights of others to practice their own spiritual beliefs.

Freedom of Religion, or their choice to believe, or not to believe.

freedom from religion…

I met with the Pioneer Day planners this week and I am happy to say they are still going to have Pioneer Day. I know it’s the same weekend as the fair but they are both wonderful events and I would like to encourage everyone to attend both. I think it could end up being beneficial to both, having people from out of town coming for one or the other, now they can enjoy each event. I also think that those who are in the fair parade Friday night should haul their floats over to Williams to run in their parade. I know a lot of work goes into those floats and this way you get double the exposure.

Well, I have just wrapped up filling out the miles of paperwork to register the kids for school next year. It makes me sad that both my babies will be in school. Meredith will be entering Kindergarten and Isaac in PreKindergarten. Their personalities grow by the day, each becoming their own person, making me imagine the person they will grow to be. While it makes me sad that they are growing up so fast, I am excited to experience the next phase.

This last week the kids have taken great pleasure in torturing me. I was without a voice for four days and they asked more questions than ever. Where did your voice go? How are you going to find it? When they were naughty and I tried lay down the law they couldn’t help but giggle.

Okay, so I admit my voice didn’t sound very threatening. It was more of a whisper-whisper-honk. Just call me mother goose.

If you have questions or comments, please contact Andrea at:

That said, I also have to say that Aaron and I like our American Idol and Big Brother.

I know, I know. Anyhow, recently I have noticed a new an amazing new trend, the acceptance of religion. On Big Brother one of the alliances call themselves “Team Christ” and the players are often seen reading their Bibles. Then on American Idol they sang “Shout to the Lord.” And the week before Dolly Parton made a guest appearance and sang “Jesus and Gravity.” I thought it was a refreshing change of pace.

Why has religion become taboo? It seems that the freedom of religion has become

Pioneer Day Cont. area. Mark Spurgeon, Naomi Hampshire, Annette Lagrande, Jerry Bejerke, Kate Pickett, to name a few of the founders. To date, Pioneer Day is the only organized fundraiser for the city of Williams, the proceeds of which go back into the community. In the last two years CBW, with volunteers and the cooperation of Williams Hardware, have painted six rundown businesses downtown, planted flowers at the railroad tracks, the entrance to Williams, sponsored clean up days. They have donated money and volunteer time to the up-keep of the city pool when it would have been closed down for three years until funds became available for a much needed renovation. In December, CBW sent three hundred pounds of food to Afghanistan to the unit that was serving under local hero, Juan Loza, who was wounded in combat and worried about the well being of his unit.

Besides the Williams fire department, they are the only service club in Williams .

Most recently the CBW are sponsoring an American flag drive to place American flags in the downtown business district to be flown on holidays that honor our heroes of the past and present “I feel that in the last two years, we have been able to contribute a lot back to our community,” said Ash. Pioneer Day has grown to include Williams High School Alumni Day, which former students from across the county gather to reminisce and enjoy Pioneer Day. “Seeing people you don’t see very often who come to town for the day,” said Diana Azevedo, a chairperson for the event.

“The Alumni come from all over the country. It’s gotten to be a homecoming,” added Ash. “People won’t be disappointed,” concluded Ash. Pioneer Day, scheduled for Saturday, June 7, will kick off with a Fun-Run followed by a parade, car show, barbecue, horseshoe tournament, and a wide variety of family friendly activities including a street dance. The park will be filled with activities, food vendors and more. Live music will be provided by local favorites The DeVille’s.

Parade and vendor forms may be found at: Fouch’s, Shear Class, Williams Hardware and Williams City Hall.

Art Show and Wine Tasting Comes to Colusa Professional artists, amateur artists, and high school artists will display their work on Saturday, May 3 from 1-4 p.m. at the Colusa Senior Center, 929 Parkhill. Themed “Our Valley in Motion,” the annual show is sponsored by the Colusa County Arts Council in conjunction with the Friends of the Library Wine and Cheese Tasting in the adjacent garden.

In the adult division, artists will come from Colusa, Glenn, Yuba, and Sutter counties. The high school division is limited to Colusa County students. Entrance to the art show is free so that guests may view local work. It is part of the mission of the CCAC to encourage local artists, adult and student. Some of the art will be for sale the day of the show. Friends of the Library will charge a fee of $15 for their wine and cheese tasting.

This is a juried art show with the art selection and the awarding of prizes, including a Theme Prize, to be determined by an art expert outside of the CCAC. This year the juror is Terri Foley, a Yuba County muralist and painter. A graduate of the University of San Francisco, Foley was the student of Sara Sealander at Yuba College. According to Foley, Sealander inspired her and led her “to the path of a career in art.”

Since 1995 Foley has painted murals and done lettering for local businesses and homes as well as painting canvases. Besides her business, she has taught drawing and painting to children in local schools. “Nature, animals, and the beauty that is all around us” inspire her.

After the show some of the art will be selected by the art committee of the Colusa Regional Medical Center to be displayed for six months in the healing environment of the hospital. In the fall the CCAC will partner with this group to present another show on the grounds of the CRMC. A portion of the proceeds from art sales goes to the CCAC to foster the arts for students and adults in Colusa County. As part of their mission, CCAC has sponsored actors from the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in presentations for county high school students, an adult trip to a concert at the Mondavi Center in Davis, art shows in local banks, and a play, “Nunsense.” The arts council is allied with the California Arts Council and meets monthly. New members are welcome at any time and may join at the May show. Further information is available by writing to P.O. Box 126, Colusa, or calling 458-5480.

PG&E Urges Early Checking of Irrigation Pumps Pacific Gas and Electric Company urges owners of irrigation pumps to check pumps before they are needed for irrigation.

Since many of these pumps are powered by dedicated electrical lines, there could be some problems left over from winter storms. Many times PG&E isn’t aware of problems until growers try to turn on the pumps as late as summer.

Check irrigation pumps at least a few weeks ahead of time to make sure they are running okay. The earlier problems are reported, the better the chance that PG&E or your pump company will be able to make repairs before the need to irrigate.

If there is no power to pumps, contact your PG&E Customer Service at 1(800)743-5002. Be sure to have meter numbers or account numbers on hand when calling.

Home & Garden wilted, and leaves may appear faded in color when it is time to water. A good test for a lawn is to simply walk across it, turn around and look for footprints. If you can see where you’ve been, your lawn is thirsty.

Loving Your Plants to Death?

By Curtis Pyle We learned in the last issue that under watering is the leading mistake made by gardeners. Now, we’ll learn about the second most common mistake, over watering. Too much water will cause a plant’s roots to rot, the soil to smell stagnant, and ultimately, kill the plant.

Luckily, if you know what to look for, the plant will tell you when it needs to be watered.

Plants tend to look limp or

To water your plants successfully, use a slow flow of water over an extended period of time.

For example, turning on your hose to a trickle, and leaving it overnight (or about 8-10 hours) is a great way to ensure a deep and complete saturation of the soil.

Don’t make the mistake of totally depending on a sprinkler system to do your watering.

Many gardeners accidentally drown their trees and shrubs, as well as overwater their lawn. If your plants have been overwatered, simply let them dry out a bit. Breaking up the soil with a hoe or shovel will allow the soil to breathe and release excess moisture. Don’t be fooled by soil that appears dry and cracked. If you dig a few inches below the surface, you may find it’s still moist. For gardeners who are unsure, consider buying a moisture meter. Most sell for under $20.

Look for the signs of drying before watering: wilting and fading. Plants actually flourish if they are allowed to approach drying before each watering session. Your plants will produce more flowers, and develop a healthy, deep root system, and appear perky and bright.

Pondless Water Features

Water features are one of the great new trends in landscaping. A pondless waterfall is perfect for adding serenity to the garden or any peaceful area.

Child safety and liability may be a concern with a waterfall that has a large pool of water. The new systems are designed for low maintenance, come in all sizes, and each one is uniqeuly designed to complement the setting.
