and develops these players into fine young men. I am honored to be a small part of that." The Santa Project is a combined effort of Red Bluff Volunteer Fire De- partment, Red Bluff Police and the Tehama County Probation Department. Each year several lo- cal families are provided with Christmas gifts and Christmas dinners, through donations from the organization, which are then handed out at the Salvation Army. In 2014, the Tehama County Probation Depart- ment provided bicycles for each of the Red Bluff Fire- adopted family members through its offender re- training program. "It is a very enjoyable way to foster interagency relationships and sup- port positive programs in our community," Spangler said. "It's a favorite activity of members of the depart- ments because it allows them the opportunity for a positive interaction with members of the com- munity without the stress normally associated with the emergency calls for as- sistance." One award for law en- forcement and one for fire in two categories, valor and community service, were given. Spangler started his career in fire service as a volunteer and has been an active member of the firefighting community for about 20 years. He joined Red Bluff Fire as a reserve firefighter in August 2006, becoming a reserve engineer for the department in November 2007 before becoming a full-time engineer in Sep- tember 2008.

At each event, Dignity Health plans to provide something free such as the free lemonade. There are also a limited number of vendors selling items such as kettle corn, smoothies, and nachos. The Red Bluff show had a unique attraction nestled between the ven- dors — a place to get a free book and a project to work on. Volunteers from Expect More Tehama's Te- hama Reads and the Te- hama County Depart- ment of Education's Mak- ers Space shared a booth where Saturday's activity was simple, easy to make LED flashlights and the books included baseball- themed ones to go with the night's movie. For the next showing of "The Lego Movie" the group will be back with an origami proj- ect. The last showing the group will do a weaving project. Tehama Reads also will be at the Wednesday farm- ers market. For more infor- mation on Tehama Reads, call 528-7341 or send an email to croach@tehamas- chools.org.

There's 10-20 people at all times waiting to go online. We have an outrageous number of kids reading up a storm at our summer programs. We're swamped and I can only see us getting busier and busier." Ainsworth asked the supervisors if they would be willing to enter a dunk tank to help raise funds. The Board of Supervi- sorssetaside$4millionand did an extensive site search with multiple community input meetings. The home of the Daily News on Dia- mond Avenue has been se- lected as the preferred loca- tion due to the a cost sav- ing by using an existing structure within proximity of community activity and the Shasta College, Tehama Campus. The McConnell funding is a challenge grant, which encourages other corpo- rate funders, community organizations and com- munity members to join in the effort to close the funding gap. The library is doing its part by developing multi- ple creative and fun fun- draising events to be held over the coming year, Ain- sworth said. The project architect is looking into and identifying key li- brary elements that could be sponsored with recog- nition for the donor. "The community has continued to express its support for a new library," Ainsworth said. "Momen- tum is building to help raise the funds to ensure that the library meets cur- rent and future needs in a facility that demonstrates our community pride. In recognition of the impact the library has had on each Tehama County citizen, the library staff is challenging every family to show its support by attending fun- draisers; donating to the new library is a must for our community." For more information on how to participate in fundraisers, call the li- brary at 527-0607. "Tehama County has ex- hibited discipline and plan- ning in a tough financial climate by earmarking $4 million of general funds for a new library," said McCo- nnell Board Chairman Bill Cox. "The vision, efforts and enthusiasm demon- strated by Tehama County leadership signaled The McConnell Foundation's board that this project is among the highest prior- ities for Tehama County. All of the community el- ements of a vibrant li- brary fit within the foun- dation's mission of helping to build better communi- ties through philanthropy." This is not the first time The McConnell Founda- tion has invested in the youth of Tehama County, Ainsworth said. Its schol- arship program has awarded $1.1 million to 38 students from Tehama County since 2008. Of those, 19 were from Corn- ing High School; 11 from Red Bluff High School; 6 from Los Molinos High School and one each from Centennial and Mercy High Schools.

JULIE ZEEB - DAILY NEWS A crowd awaits the start of the movie "The Sandlot" Saturday at Red Bluff River Park. A brief career in teach- ing followed in Hayward and Covina before he was recruited by Wooden as his assistant basketball coach. "John had me down for a weekend," Sale recalled. "What he was doing was picking my brain. I don't think he found much, but it was enough to get me the job." After two years court side at UCLA the pull of his hometown brought Sale back to Red Bluff High to coach football, basketball and baseball, which he con- tinued to do until he moved into school administration. Despite only coaching for 5 years, Sale was the first coach ever inducted into the school's hall of fame, Cornelius said. In 1971 Sale would be- come principal of Red Bluff High School before return- ing to farming. He came back to education in 1983 as superintendant of the high school district for a year be- fore retiring for good. A 61-year member of Wil- cox Oaks, Sale played daily until recent years and is known for his demeanor and etiquette on the course, Cornelius said. Choking up, Cornelius praised Sale for his integ- rity, values and ethics. "I has a shock here to- night," Sale said later. "I saw a tear in Bill Cornelius' eye. I had that kid in high school for four years and I never got a drop." Perhaps the greatest trib- ute of the evening was the one Sale paid to those in at- tendance when he took over the microphone. "Seeing this room is one reason I came back to Red Bluff," he told the crowd. Later he would say "I've been very fortunate. It's very easy to understand why I came back to Red Bluff."

RM … We DID San Francisco last Thursday .Amarvelous time of the year with Union Square aglow with the Xmas lights and the fog slipping around every bell ringer and shopper in sight. If your feet and your pocketbook hold out, it is well worth the trip. I saw a book about thoroughbred horses that Walt Forbes, our Yardbird at the plant, would have given his eyeteeth for, but at $30.00 a copy, I guess he will keep his teeth. Friday morning was something else. This time the cold grey fog circled the base of the walls of San Quentin prison. The food administrator there, Mr. Small, had invited me over for a look see. Our meat plant has been a long time supplier for that State institution. They have 3500 men behind bars…and I mean bars! Everywhere we walked, there were gates being unlocked and locked, identification being shown and so forth. The guards meant business! Inside the prison is the largest textile mill west of the Mississippi which turns out string and clothing…all prisoner produced They also have a wood furniture shop and an auto repair shop. Their huge auditorium functions as a theatre and mess hall. The kitchen is also immense with great soup caldrons, ovens and vegetable washing apparatus. They have their own bakery and make ice cream every day. Mr. Small has been there 18 years and during that time there has never been a major riot. Executions yes, but riots no…so that's one thing to be thankful for…and my being on the outside looking in is another. … You don't realize how many people the Bull Sale draws until you try to get rooms for out-of-town guests. Many thanks to the Sky Terrace Motel for coming through in a pinch. … We are about to assault the slopes again, and although all the kids have grown and require new ski duds, this outfitting can be accomplished quite inexpensively. What, you don't believe it? How shrewd of you. ... I've learned that it is probably best to wait for PacificAirlines at the ChicoAirport rather than the ReddingAirport, because when they don't stop to pick you up in Chico, you have a shorter trip to San Francisco by car. … As promised (and allowed by the DN) a poem. This by one of the cleverest poets, Ogden Nash. I like the duck-billed platypus, because it is anomalous. I like the way it raises its family. Partly birdly, partly mammaly. I like its independent attitude. Let no one call it a duck-billed platitude. Robert Minch WEDNESDAY, JULY 1, 2015 REDBLUFFDAILYNEWS.COM |NEWS | 5 A
