Arrests • Charity Rae Huntzinger, 37, of Corn- ing was arrested Thursday at Walmart for reportedly shoplifting. She used her 13-year-old daughter as a lookout. She was booked into Tehama County Jail on felony charges of petty theft with a prior convic- tion. Bail was set at $15,000. • Dana Nicole Schorn- sten, 33, of Redding was arrested Thursday on Woodson Avenue, in Corning. She was booked into Tehama County Jail on charges of felony pos- session of narcotics or controlled substance, felony possession of nar- cotics or controlled sub- stance for sale and misde- meanor possession of controlled substance para- phernalia. Bail was set at $33,000. Theft • A white 1987 Honda Civic was reported stolen sometime after 5:30 p.m., Wednesday from the 800 block of Kimball Avenue. All the keys were accounted for. • An unknown suspect reportedly stole an AC unit, valued at $750, located outside of a busi- ness on the 1000 block of Vista Way. • Someone on the 1000 block of Union Street reported that his neighbor had stolen lights from his front porch and believes his weed whip was stolen from inside his residence. Police found no evidence of entry into the resi- dence, as the items were on the porch. The person wished it to be document- ed that all of his neigh- bors, young and old, and his landlord and a “biker gang” are out to get him and stole his lights. The person appears to have reality issues and did not want officer involvement or extra patrol. The esti- mated value of the report- edly stolen items is $400. Vandalism • An unknown suspect reportedly threw a rock through the back window of a car on the 1400 block of Scottsdale Way, caus- ing an estimated $300 worth of damage. A neighbor contacted by police said he heard a crashing sound at around 11 p.m., Thursday, but did not see anyone in the area. Dispute • Someone reported “Dustin” was trashing her campsite at Flying A Trailer Park. Police responded and admon- ished her for camping within city limits. She told police she had been involved in minor verbal dispute with a man only known to her as “Justin”, and he had done some minor vandalism to her belongings. The man left prior to police arrival. Crash • A gray Dodge pickup with a dog inside report- edly backed up into the Walmart garden center. An officer contacted a man with a gray pickup that had a dog in the cab. He told the officer that prior to the officer’s arrival there was a similar truck with a dog in the bed that had left the area. Suspicious • Someone reported a suspicious person attempting to break into the mail boxes across from Warner Petroleum. An officer contacted a person who was mailing an item in the FedEx drop box. The officer deter- mined no crime had been committed. Dog • Someone reported that an employee at Ramos Donut House would not allow her in the business with her dog, which is a companion dog. Hazard • An occupant of a white Ford Mustang west- bound on Luther, east of Paskenta from the area of Franzel Avenue reported- ly threw a beer bottle out the window while on Franzel, breaking it on the roadway. Odd • A person was at the Tehama County Jail counter requesting to turn himself in for unknown reasons. He was trans- ported to mental health for self-commitment. James W.

On the surface, they might not seem related. However, they are both very much economic development strategies. What we’ve learned about the power of brands so far makes us optimistic. With millions of people traveling up and down I-5 each year, if just a few more stopped and spent some time and money for a day, maybe two, the investment from outside dollars would be remarkable. What can visitors do here that they can’t do closer to home? What informa- tion can we share to peak their curiosity to stay an extra night and hike Mt. Lassen, or visit New Clair- vaux Winery or buy a gorgeous gift pack of olive oil at Lucero’s in Corning? How do we better market and promote our assets to make vis- itors choose to stop here? The branding project is helping us figure this out. We continue our education on this topic Tuesday when Roger Brooks of Destination Development Inc. presents a workshop at Rolling Hills Casino from 8 a.m. to noon — visit www.destinationte- hama.wordpress.com. What we’ve learned about raising expecta- tions and bring- ing stakeholder groups together to talk about skills and options for our youth also makes us optimistic. Over 150 attended the Expect More Summit in May to discuss "Our Journey." The energy and spirit was conta- gious and the commit- ment to champion increased parent involvement, rich experiences con- nected to business and higher edu- cation, and career exploration pow- erful. Making sure our students are prepared and have options at grad- uation strengthens our community in every way. Whether they go on to higher education, start business- Kathy Garcia es, begin apprenticeships or careers in the military, we benefit. Busi- nesses will look to regions where the workforce is skilled and adapt- able, and this will create opportunity for our stu- dents to find jobs in the Northstate or like so many of us, an opportunity to return home to raise our families. Lastly, the branding process has already created increased awareness of the beauty of the Northstate and reminded us why we choose to live here. There are local children who have never visited Lassen Volcanic National Park or sat on a boat as it floated down the river or picked a peach off of a tree or bought pro- duce at a farmers market. We can help connect them to home and teach important lessons along the way. Kathy Garcia is the Business Services manager at the Job Training Center. CSU Chico admissions open Monday for Spring Semester Now that the statea’s budget has passed, the Cal- ifornia State University Chancellor’s Office has announced that campuses in the CSU will be expected to achieve the initial targets given to them in February of this year.

The deadline for graduate students is Sept. 15. “We are pleased that we will be able to offer admission to a substantial number of students this spring,” said Allan Bee, director of Admissions. “This is especially true for students who have com- pleted all their pre-requisites at a community col- lege and need somewhere to continue their educa- tion.” CSU, Chico’s target for the 2011-12 academic year is 15,523 students.
