Greetings all!

Thanks so much for sending in the information you have ready for the next two calendar months. Surely, there will be more to participate in as time draws closer, so keep an eye out for your other sources. This is a BIG election year, after all!

Please forward to your lists and share freely.

Hopefully, more than the progressive calendar will return to "normal" in November!

Happy New Year!

Hope for the future comes because of communities like ours, people who come together to learn, discuss, protest, fight for causes, and spend time in the natural world.

We're grateful for this community and look forward to another year of learning, discussing, protesting, fighting, and enjoying our incredible corner of the world with all of you. Thank you for contributing to and sharing our email calendars all these years.

Season's Greetings Friends,

During this tumultuous time, let's look close to home for ways we can offer some love and a smile. The calendar is ready to be sent to your groups and friends, and this message from our friend and tireless local volunteer, Betsy Kerr, gives us a way to do something kind NOW :

 "The Upper Room will provide a meal at the Cedar Grove Mobile Home Park, tentatively scheduled for Dec. 7th at 5 pm. There are approximately 40 children who reside in this mobile home park, and we would love to be able to provide each child with a small Christmas gift. If you want to donate a toy, you can deliver it to me or the Upper Room on Broadway. Do not wrap the gift.

 The Upper Room Dining Hall is at 1868 Broadway, a mile or two east of the dollar store and Grocery Outlet. Karen Stenson will receive your donation. I'm in Placerville, in "Eskaton Village". If you have questions, call Karen at 530-497-5146 or me at 530-295-1922.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY HANUKKAH, whichever you choose!!!”

Betsy

Thank you, Betsy and all of our contributors, for all you all do!

Greetings All!

So much to share this month! Since we're a bit early, we left this weekend's fun stuff on the calendar as a reminder. Please share with your lists and friends ASAP!

Did you know we have a special "No Vet Goes Hungry" program in El Dorado County? If you know a veteran who would benefit from more food security, take a look HERE.

We always try to include a contact person or website so you can find more information and/or verify an event hasn't been canceled due to weather. And the weather is changing, brrr!

Thanks for all the great contributions! See you out and about.
