It was a packed day full of information and activities for the families. The morning started with an hour tour of Sacramento State leading into an admissions presentation from a former Shasta High graduate turned CSU, Sacramento admissions counselor. During the tour students and parents asked questions in regards to majors offered at Sac State, what dormitory life is like and they were able to see what different college departments look like as well as see how beautiful the campus is. Laura Martinez, mother of David Albarran Martinez, an 8th grade graduate from Vista Middle School, stated that she was "very fortunate to have attended the field trip, because now I know that my son does have options to go to college and now I know how I can help him meet all his requirements to be able to apply to any school he wants to.

Esparza Lassen Forest fire restrictions start Monday Forest officials have announced that fire restrictions will go into effect on the Lassen National Forest beginning Monday, July 15. The restrictions address campfire use, off-road driving, smoking, wood cutting, and other activities on the Forest. Such restrictions are ordered every year when the temperatures rise and cause the forest to dry out and become much more susceptible to wildfires. "When the public complies with these restrictions, the chances of people accidently starting wildfires is greatly reduced," said Lassen National Forest Supervisor Jerry Bird. "Those of us who live in and around the Forest understand the consequences of wildfire and the need for fire restrictions." Highlights of the restrictions include: • Open fires are prohibited outside of designated, developed campgrounds and recreation sites, even with a valid California campfire permit. However, lanterns and portable stoves using gas, jellied petroleum, or pressurized liquid fuel may be used with a valid California campfire permit. • Smoking is prohibited, except within an enclosed vehicle, building, or designated recreation site. • Operating an internal combustion engine is prohibited, except within designated recreation sites. • Using a motor vehicle is allowed only on established Forest System roads and trails or within designated recreation sites. Under the restrictions, use of chainsaws for woodcutting by individuals with a valid fuelwood permit is allowed beginning at daylight until 1 p.m. — a provision known as hoot owl. Chainsaws must have spark arresters, and woodcutters are required to have both a shovel and fire extinguisher on hand. Fire officials urge woodcutters to cut firewood early in the day. As the fire danger increases, woodcutting on the forest could be suspended. For exemptions and a full description of the fire restrictions, you may go online to http://www.fs.usda.gov/ alerts/lassen/alertsnotices or calling (530) 257-2151. Simpson University for Seniors to host open house REDDING – Simpson University for Seniors will host an open house Aug. 22 for those interested in learning more about the monthlong, not-for-credit classes on topics including history, geography, art, music, and religion. The open house will be from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in the Simpson University dining center, 2211 College View Drive. Refreshments will be served. Guests can meet next year's presenters as well as other students. Attendees can RSVP at simpsonu.edu/openhouse or by calling (530) 2264146. Simpson University for Seniors started in fall 2010 as a program geared to adults over 50 interested in classroom learning without required homework, tests or grades. Courses, held on Simpson University's campus, are taught by university professors and professionals in their field of expertise. In response to growing inquiries from younger adults interested in the program, organizers have dropped the age recommendation for this year's courses, which start Sept. 9. In addition, students who register for three classes in an academic year can take a fourth class for free. Fall courses (September, October and November) include "Weird Physics," "Nutrition: Here's to Your Health," "World Religions," "History and Life Through the Eyes of Art," "The Pioneers Who Shaped Shasta County," and "Joseph the Dreamer: An Introduction to Biblical Narrative." Other courses are scheduled for January, February, March, April, and May. It is the first year the program has been extended into May, bringing the total courses for the year to 16. All classes meet from 10:20 to 11:20 a.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in the Owen Student Services Center (except for those offered in May). The cost is $95 per person, per course, or $145 per couple, per course. Register online at simpsonu.edu/seniorschool, or call (530) 226-4146.
