"This is our 13th year in Te- hama County celebrating Re- covery Happens," said Cynthia Cook, chairwoman of the Tehama County Drug and Alcohol Advi- sory Board. "The theme for this event is 'Join the Voice of Recov- ery: Visible, Vocal and Valueable.'" The event is a collaboration be- tween the advisory board and the Tehama County Health Services Agency and is the local celebra- CELEBRATION County celebrates Recovery Happens The Associated Press MIDDLETOWN The scope of the devastation from one of Califor- nia's most destructive wildfires is becoming clearer and so too is the size of the humanitarian need in one of the state's poorer counties. More than 1,000 homes have been confirmed destroyed and the number likely will go higher as assessment continues in Lake County. Many others are dam- aged or don't have power, leaving thousands in need of shelter. "The biggest challenge is there aren't enough hotel rooms in Lake County," county Supervisor Jim Comstock said Monday. He lost most of his 1,700-acre ranch to fire but kept his house. Comstock said options for housing are limited in the rural county of small towns linked by winding roads. The Twin Pine Ca- sino and Hotel in Middletown has set up beds in its event center, but hotel rooms are reserved for dis- placed tribal members and em- CALIFORNIA BLAZES Devastation clearer as evacuees return By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter RED BLUFF Supporters of the nonprofit organization Poor And The Homeless, or PATH, joined to- gether Saturday for the seventh annual The Big Walk, a fund- raiser for the group's winter shel- ter.

JULIE ZEEB - DAILY NEWS Fundsraisedforwintershelter By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter RED BLUFF Hundreds were drawn to downtown Red Bluff Saturday for the sixth annual Beef 'N Brew where 2,200 pounds of beef was served and 58 craft beers were available at 33 businesses. The event pre-sold about 800 tickets and early estimates for the crowd were between 1,800 and 2,000, said Cathy To- bin, event chairwoman. There were 29 different beef appetiz- ers available to attendees. Both dark and light beers were available along with a wide-variety of beef appetiz- ers such as the Turri Curry at Dominick's Engineering and Surveying, Drunken Bourbon Meatballs at Tips, and chili at Firehouse Pizza. Proceeds from the event are split between the Downtown Red Bluff Business Association and the Tehama County Cattle- Women, Tobin said. The busi- ness association uses its funds to do beautification projects and signage throughout the district, which includes a por- tion of Main, Walnut and Oak streets. The CattleWomen will be using the funds to support the community, especially youth, through things such as agri- cultral education, donations to the Red Bluff, Corning and Los Molinos FFA groups, the mar- ket steers at the Junior Live- stock Auction, set for Saturday, Sept. 26, and for the Tehama County Beef Ambassadors pro- gram. "We do good with this so we like to give back to the youth," Tobin said.
