Staffreport REDBLUFF TheTehamaCounty Animal Care Center will be host- ing a Howl-o-ween dog adoption event Monday, Oct. 31. During the one-day event, po- tential adopters will be able to participate in a drawing for re- duced adoption fees. Discounts will range from $20 to $80 off the adoption price. There are nearly 30 dogs wait- ing to find permanent homes, and several have been waiting a very long time. "We have almost 30 dogs up for adoption, and few of those have been waiting a long time for their new homes," said center manager Christine McClintock. "Even though the animals are well cared for, there is no place like an adoptive home for a pet." Dogs ready for adoption have started their vaccinations and have been tested for canine heartworms. PETS — Providing ANIMAL CARE CENTER Howl-o-ween adoption event set for Monday By Heather Hoelscher hhoelscher@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Heather on Twitter REDBLUFF The Pauline Davis Pa- vilion Committee proposed plac- ing two large fans in the pavilion to improve air quality and keep the building cool when the fair moves back to the summer July 13-16, 2017. The Tehama District Fair Board authorized the committee to move forward with the project and the installation of the fans on Oct. 18. The main goal of the project is to cool the building during the summer heat and the fans will be able to do that, said Tonya Re- damonti-Williams, a member of the committee. With the existing external fans, the two new fans will be able to cool the building by 15 to 20 degrees so it can be used more in the summer months. TEHAMA COUNTY Fair moves forward with plans to cool pavilion Largefanstokeepbuilding cool in summer months By Chip Thompson editor@redbluffdailynews.com @editorchip on Twitter COTTONWOOD A 40-year-old Redding man has been identi- fied as a prime suspect in a se- ries of break-ins and thefts from Evergreen Elementary School, the latest being Monday and causing $25,000 in damages. Donald Eugene Harrison is being sought in connection with three break-ins at the school start- ing in July, accord- ing to a press re- lease issued early Thursday by the Tehama County Sheriff's Depart- ment. The first in- cident involved breaking a lock on a freezer door and theft of around $1,200 in frozen food. The school did not report the incident to law enforcement but made security upgrades including a video sur- veillance system, the release said. During a second break-in Aug. 31, the surveillance system cap- tured a blue minivan near the freezer around 4:30 a.m., the re- lease said. The lock to the freezer had been broken and $607 of fro- zen food was taken. Monday's incident not only involved theft of nearly $2,000 worth of frozen food, but caused around $25,000 worth of dam- age to the freezer, the release said. The suspect used a truck to pull a metal bar off the front of the freezer door, resulting in exten- sive damage to the freezer, hand- rails and a concrete approach ramp. Surveillance tapes of Monday's incident show the same blue min- ivan as well as an older extended cab Dodge Dakota pickup truck and a cruiser style motorcycle en- tering the school grounds during the night, the release said. The empty truck arrived shortly after 2 a.m. and left full a few minutes later. Just before 5 a.m. the mini- van and motorcycle returned and left about 10 minutes later. Reports were received that Harrison was attempting to sell bulk quantities of frozen food in Anderson. Deputies, assisted by Anderson Police, Shasta County Probation and Sheriff's depart- ments and Shasta Interagency Narcotics Task Force, conducted probation searches of two homes EVERGREEN ELEMENTARY SuspectID'dinschoolbreak-ins By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter TEHAMA COUNTY The Tehama County Farm Bureau hosted its annual Farm-City Bus Tour Thursday with a trip taking in the entire county from Red Bluff down to Corning and back to show off various industries in the county. The tour, which had 45 par- ticipants, is a part of Farm-City week, which kicks off with Farm Day at the Tehama District Fair- ground and goes through Farm- City Night on Nov. 7 where com- munity members are recognized for their contributions. "It's a chance to bring agri- culture and other community members together to tour Te- hama County agriculture and it's hidden treasures," said Tehama County Farm Bureau Manager Kari Dodd. It allows the public to experience unique aspects of the agriculture happening locally. ThetourkickedoffinRedBluff with a visit to the Cal Fire head- quarters in Red Bluff where Bat- talion Chief Monty Smith wel- comedthegroupalongwithCapt. AndyEmerick,HeavyFireEquip- ment Operator Corey Wolter and Division Chief Dawn Pedersen. Cal Fire and Tehama County Fire operate together through a cooperative agreement that has been in place since 1927 and the Tehama-Glenn Unit, which cov- ers Tehama and Glenn counties, has four battalions, 12 fire sta- tions and one helitack along with three conservations camps, Smith said. The command center located near the Red Bluff headquarters dispatches all EMS services in Tehama County aside from the city of Corning, which is han- dled by the Corning Volunteer Fire Department. There are 21 units that stretch from the Ore- gon border down to Mexico and around 6,000 employees. There area about 200 people employed in the Tehama-Glenn unit. Te- hama County Fire has about 120 active volunteers that man the majority of the 14 stations that fall under Tehama County Fire. Emerick talked about things like the state-wide goal, which is to hold 95 percent of all fires to 10 acres or less. The agency does adecentjobatthisinpartthanks to the strategic placement of re- sources and the training person- nel receives, Emerick said. The department is an all-risk depart- ment meaning they do so much morethanjustwildlandfirefight- ing including structure protec- tion, he said. The engine CalFire uses is a four-wheel drive vehicle and can hold up to 500 gallons of water. Without a hydrant to re- fill, this can last anywhere from 30 seconds to a few minutes in a structure fire or between five and 10 minutes on a wildland fire.
