For an Emerald Star Project, Aaron Lutes and Bryan Wiggley of Tehama 4-H Club put together a Small Animal Field Day, practicing Round-Robin Showman- ship and giving demon- strations concerning dogs, rabbits, cavies and poul- try. Things shown were how to get an animal ready for show and com- mon grooming practices, including show tips for each species. Participants practiced showmanship, got advice on their pro- jects from discussion and displays and gathered knowledge about their animals. Lutes and Wiggley would like to thank the judges and presenters, Michelle Wiggley, rabbit and cavy; Bonnie Hanson, dog; and Bruce and Sharon Brown, rabbit and cavy; and Michelle Lutes for running concession.

Violet Richardson Award goes to McDonald Jessica McDonald, age 15, has been chosen by Soroptimist Inter- national of Red Bluff as the recipi- ent of its 2010 Violet Richardson Award. This award recognizes young women who make the com- munity and world a better place through their volunteer efforts. Jessica is being acknowledged because of her efforts in coordinating the Ride For Life in April 2009. A take off of Relay For Life, this event is done on horseback and pledges are made for the number of laps a person would ride with proceeds being donated to American Cancer Society. This event was the second of its kind to be held in the USA. McDonald's best friend is Bailey Brownfield and their goal was to have 50 riders in hopes of making $5,000. When the event was over they had 121 riders and made a $28,000 donation to ACS. McDonald gives credit for the success of the event to her commu- nity, family and friends. The Second Ride For Life in Tehama County is set for Saturday, April 3 at the Tehama District Fair- ground. Soroptimist International of Red Bluff will be honoring Jessica dur- ing its awards banquet with a $300 check. Her application will then be forwarded to the regional level where she becomes eligible to pos- sibly be awarded one of 28 $1,000 awards. In addition, $1,000 will be contributed in honor of the regional winners to their volunteer organiza- tions. One finalist is then chosen for an additional contribution of $2,500 to the finalist's volunteer organiza- tion. McDonald Cottonwood Farmers Market The Cottonwood Creek Certified Farmer's Market & Artisans Fair is gearing up for the opening day of its second season, 3-7 p.m. on Friday, May 7 at the new Cottonwood Creek Watershed Group office, 3645 Main St., in Cottonwood. The area will feature a more visible location for shoppers and provide a more friendly walking area for disabled and elderly shoppers. Modeled after open-air markets across the state and country, the market will run on Fridays through Oct. 29 and feature a diverse section of local foods and products in an inviting, friendly atmosphere with live music, kids activities, concessions, face painting and local master gardeners. "Our intent is to enhance community life in Cotton- wood by bringing residents, local growers and produc- ers together ina market setting that is friendly, fun and full of local quality local foods," said Sherri Curry, mar- keting supervisor and AmeriCorps VISTA member. "We hope community members throughout the area will take a break from the bustle of their busy weeks to come check us out on Fridays this coming summer and fall." Organizers decided to hold the market on Fridays so it wouldn't compete with other markets on weekends, Curry said. To sell at one or more markets during 2010 vendors must complete the 2010 market application and return it to the office. Spaces are limited, so call the office to reserve a spot. Volunteers and volunteer groups are needed for the 2010 season. For information visit www.ccwgrp.org, e- mail Curry at scurry@ccwgrp.org or call at 347-6637. Youth stage small animal field day Bryan Wiggley and Aaron Lutes put on a Small Animal Field Day, during which Emilee Hanson of Corning directs her dog, a chocolate Lab. Goldie's Dinner Goldie's Annual Dinner — Sunday, March 21, at the Red Bluff Community and Senior Center — will be in memory of three women instrumental in the facility. Goldie Walston refused to give up on establishing a center when people voted against a tax to finance it. She organized a group that spent years raising money to enable the city to apply for a state grant. She incorporat- ed the group and obtained non-profit status. Until her death, she was president. Effie Bonner was at Goldie's side all the years of fundraising and succeeded her as president. A great cook, she baked hundreds of pies sold at sidewalk sales and cooked dinners, while participating in all other activities of the auxiliary until she was injured in a fall and died. Ella Costa was secretary of the organization for many years until her health deteriorated. She, too, passed away recently. All three were past regular retirement age when they became active in the project. A roast beef or oven fried chicken dinner will be served noon to 3 p.m. at the center, 1500 S. Jackson St. The Young Marines have offered to assist again this year. Price is $8 for adults and $4 for children younger than 10.
