JudgeToddBottke hands out awards Tuesday to adult drug court and behavioral health court graduates at the graduation celebration at the Tehama County Department of Education. HEATHER HOELSCHER - DAILY NEWS ByHeatherHoelscher hhoelscher@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Heather on Twitter RED BLUFF TheTehamaCounty Treatment Courts graduation was held Tuesday at the Tehama County Department of Education building to honor both the adult drug court and behavioral health court 2015 graduates. Tehama County adult drug and behavioral courts are spe- cialty courts that handle individ- uals who have felony cases and a primary drug, alcohol or men- tal health diagnosis, according to an announcement from Tehama County Health Services Agency. These types of courts have proven to be an effective treatment based alternative to incarceration. The treatment provided by the courts has given the 16 graduates another chance at staying sober and out of jail, the release said.

This marks the 30th year of kindness starting with Recy- cle the Warmth in 1985. Project Homeless Connect began in 2010 and the two events were com- bined to create LIFT — Live In- spired For Tomorrow — Tehama. New this year to Recycle the Warmth is the addition of Abby's Sweet Feet, where people can re- ceive warm shoes while picking out warm clothes donated to the program. The Project Homeless Connect aspect of the project as a whole has added government agencies' assistance and health services provided free. This was made pos- sible with the help from the PATH — Poor and The Homeless — pro- gram and the Tehama County Community Action Agency. This year people will have the opportunity to receive flu shots, wound care, counseling, breast and general exams and get medi- cal screenings from St. Elizabeth Community Hospital. Dental ser- vices will be provided by Green- ville Rancheria and Northern Val- ley Indian Dental Health. Other services include eye exam and glasses, which will be available the same day made pos- sible by Dan's Optical. Transportation to the event will be offered free by TRAX. Golf carts will be available to take peo- ple around, as multiple buildings will house different programs and agencies. The carts will take patrons to their cars with their items. The Department of Motor Vehi- cles will be providing California identification cards and birth cer- tificates will be given out as well. Veterans will have their own section with services that best fit their needs with a photo ID sec- tion and counseling van. The Recycle the Warmth proj- ect started as an effort by found- ers Senia and Wayne Owensby to give the homeless coats and blan- kets for the cold winter months. As the project began to grow oth- ers gained interest. St. Elizabeth provided a large pot of soup for the event and con- tinues to do so every year. In ad- dition to the soup, was the help of the Judy Mandolfo and her family who are caterers. Gail Locke, a partner of LIFT Tehama, introduced the idea of inviting other agencies and busi- nesses to join the efforts to offer more to the community and took on the responsibility of putting it all together.

Vic Dickison, a World War II Veteran and husband of Coun- cilwoman Darlene Dickison, served as parade Grand Mar- shal escorted by his wife. Future Farmers of Amer- ica was well-represented with about three groups of students marching or riding with the Orland FFA group forming a mounted posse and the Los Molinos FFA walking. Other youth organizations that par- ticipated included Tehama County Youth Focus and the local Boy Scouts and Girls Scouts. The city of Corning was represented by Corn- ing Fire and the Corning Po- lice Department who led the parade to clear traffic for the Red Bluff-based Marine Corps League Honor Guard who posted colors for the event. Following the parade, a lun- cheon was held at the Corning Veterans Memorial Hall where World War II Veteran Bucky Bowen served as Master of Ceremonies and Rev. Dennis Wyman started things off with the invocation. Corning Cham- ber of Commerce manager Va- lanne Cardenas sang the na- tional anthem. The Corning Exchange Club prepared the food. Bowen introduced Dicki- son, whom he said had recently turned 100 years old and has been a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars for more than 67 years and yet still maintains an active life. Born in Idaho, Dickison has lived in Corning since the age of four. "He has been chosen as the grand marshal of today's activ- ities because age doesn't slow him down much," Bowen said. "He bowls in a league at Java Lanes every Tuesday, he reg- ularly plays horseshoes, is an active RV-er and has just re- newed his driver's license for CORNING PARADE, LUNCHEON FOR VETERANS DAY Corning VFW member Jim Darrow, le , and Corning Volunteer Fire Department Chief Martin Spannaus, right, participate in the 2015Corning Veterans Day Parade on Wednesday.
