StaffReports REDBLUFF» TheTredefamilytra- dition has included the Red Bluff Round-Up for a long, long time. Ever since Claus Trede left Ger- many and settled in Red Bluff, there's been a Trede involved with the rodeo. And now four genera- tions later, Red Bluff native John Trede continues the tradition. It all began in 1922, when John's great-grandfather, Claus, was one of the original stockholders and directors for the Round-Up. His eldest son, Claus, Jr., John's grandfather, became a director shortly after his father's death in 1931. Claus, Jr. was in charge of the advertising caravan, a group of 30 to 40 cars that had Round- Up ads placed on them while be- ing driven up and down the Cen- tral Valley to promote the rodeo. Claus, Jr. died in 1944, and his son, John's father, who went by ROUND-UP 4thgeneration of involvement continuing in rodeo tradition The Associated Press QUINCY » A nonprofit legal foun- dation is accusing federal officials of cutting off motor-vehicle access to thousands of roads and trails on forestland in Northern Califor- nia, according to a lawsuit filed Wednesday. A decision in 2010 by the U.S. Forest Service blocked access to much of the Plumas National For- est without reviewing the conse- quences to the public, the Pacific Legal Foundation said in its law- suit. A call to a Plumas National For- est spokeswoman was not imme- diately returned. The forest ser- vice says the decision focused on unauthorized travel routes and added 234 miles of trails to the forest's existing transportation system. The Pacific Legal Foundation, a conservative/libertarian pub- lic law firm, filed the lawsuit on behalf of groups including two counties — Butte and Plumas — who say the decision deprives them of revenue from logging and FOREST SERVICE DECISION Nonprofit legal foundation is suing over vehicle access By Andre Byik abyik@redbluffdailynews.com @andrebyik on Twitter RED BLUFF » The Red Bluff City Council on Tuesday appointed Gary Jones, who works as an au- ditor-appraiser at the Tehama County Assessor's Office, to fill its vacant seat. Jones, 29, now occupies the seat that had been left vacant by Or- ville Knox's resignation on Jan. 26. His term expires in Decem- ber 2018. Jones, a Red Bluff resident of seven years, was appointed in a 3-1 vote. Council members Dan- iele Jackson, Suren Patel and Rob Schmid were in the major- ity. Mayor Clay Parker voted no. Jones said he was excited after receiving the three votes needed for appointment. "I've been wanting to be more involved in the community," he said, adding that after his 7-month-old son, Ellis, was born, that sentiment came to the fore- front of his mind.

ANDRE BYIK — DAILY NEWS By Rich Greene rgreene@redbluffdailynews.com @richgreenenews on Twitter RED BLUFF » Salisbury High School was one of 29 Model Con- tinuation High Schools recog- nized by State Superintendent of Public Instruction Wednesday. The schools were recognized for providing innovative pro- grams and comprehensible ser- vices to students who may have otherwise been at risk of not graduating. "These outstanding schools provide teaching approaches that better serve their students and give them every chance to flourish," Torlakson said. Red Bluff Joint Union High School District Superintendent Todd Brose said Salisbury does a good job of meeting the needs of each individual that comes through its doors through its use of hands-on-work, field trips and community involvement. That individual treatment can mean the difference be- tween leaving school with a di- ploma or just leaving school. Rosemary Aubrey said she came to Salisbury in what should have been her junior year around 160 credits short of grad- uating. Two years later Aubrey is looking at a December gradu- ation. As a teenage mother, whose son required out of the area medical treatment, Aubrey said it would not have been possible to attend school elsewhere. Aubrey said she came to Salis- bury and found it was a wel- coming environment, not just for her, but her son as well. The school provides a day care ser- vice. "They mold your education around you," Aubrey said. Principal Barb Thomas said the school strives for an indi- vidualized approach for each student and away from a cookie cutter format. But the school attempts to EDUCATION MODEL SCHOOL DESIGNATION PHOTOS BY RICH GREENE — DAILY NEWS Salisbury High School was designated as a Model Continuation High School by State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson.
