Saturday, April 21, 2012 – Daily News 3A National PAL Mentoring Day As today's Round Up parade passes by, one float will be filled with a cast of characters from the Tehama County Mentoring Pro- gram. These are mentors and mentees in intentional men- toring relationships designed to support and encourage young people to meet their potential. Research shows that young people who are men- tored tend to do better in many areas, from school attendance, to improved grades, to a delay in unhealthy behaviors. activities and our for- malized mentoring pro- grams have Our community does better when caring adults become involved in the lives of young people. When adults care enough to undergo background checks and training to develop a support- ive mentoring relationship with a child, everyone benefits. Chil- dren become confident enough to explore future options, including college, and adults develop satis- faction in helping to guide a young person to a future where his or her talents will be utilized fully. Today is National Police Activities League Mentoring Day, and so we are celebrating strengthened. Each Wednesday from 5-6 p.m. is mentoring hour at the PAL site on Vista Way.

Through this funding, ties to law enforce- ment and PAL Melissa Sometimes young people seek help with homework, sometimes they engage in a new activity with a mentor such as chess or crochet. As with all mentoring pro- grams, ours in Tehama County relies on the volunteer time of adults to engage with our young people. A waiting list has been established for children, particu- Mendonca larly boys, wanting mentors. A variety of opportunities exist to meet the schedules and interests of both mentors and mentees. There is a lot to be said about mentoring, but my favorite quote is from John Crosby and keeps it pretty simple: "Mentoring is a brain to pick, an ear to listen and a push in the right direction." Tehama County is filled with promising young peo- ple eager to learn, talk with, be heard and make dreams come true. recognition.

Hospital teams up to fight breast cancer St. Elizabeth Community Hospital is proud to partner with the Red Bluff Round Up in the annual Tough Enough to Wear Pink campaign — a fund raiser to raise awareness of breast cancer and raise funds to benefit local residents in their need for mammography services. Since the inception of the partnership in 2006, the Red Bluff Round Up and the community of Tehama County has raised over $150,000 in the fight against breast cancer. "We are proud to be a part of a national Wran- gler campaign yet keep our dollars raised locally, in our community to help our local state-of-the- art imaging center," said Jolene Kemen, Red Bluff Round-Up director. The funds raised have provided equipment software upgrades, mammo-pads and most recently, funds to supplement the cost of mam- mograms for the uninsured. Part of the excite- ment of the Tough Enough event is the creativity used by the Red Bluff Round Up Board Of Direc- tors to secure a new auction item every year. Items have ranged from pink chaps, to a pink saddle, a shot gun and this year a Polaris Razor wrapped in Tough Enough logo images. "This has been a very rewarding and humbling relationship as we witness the numerous commu- nity members and visitors willing to participate in the Tough Enough events and fundraising activities," said Todd Smith, CEO. The Tough Enough To Wear Pink rodeo per- formance takes place on Sunday and includes the live auction that takes place in the arena during the show. Other special events include a crazy wild saddle bronc ride where competitors dress in costume, many of which include an emphasis on pink. To purchase tickets, call the Round-Up office at 527-1000.
