During the Ponderosa fire disaster I have had the opportunity to experience first hand the power of commu- nity. The local community rallied immediately. At the first sign of smoke the network was working and friends from the Hwy 36 side were calling friends in Manton to check on them and let them know a fire was starting. At the same time, emergency responders were react- ing to the fire. CalFire was in the area and immediately engaged and the Tehama County Sherriff's Department was responding as calls came in. Actions of community members from that moment throughout the response and now in the recovery stages are ongoing and heart warming. CalFire, Tehama County Sher- iff's Department, and Sheriff Dave Hencratt were instrumental in keep- ing residents and their property safe throughout the crisis. Those are just two of the many agencies who, from my vantage point, executed their roles masterly. Red Cross, Sal- vation Army, Western Services Workers, and many of the other Tehama County Agencies stepped in and are now contin- uing to provide assistance. Paul Lowen- thal, public infor- mation officer on the feeling was evident at the Manton School evacuation site. The com- munity bonds were strong and many, many individu- als stepped up to do what- ever was necessary. fire, said it best: "It was incredible to watch the community come togeth- er and to witness how fast they organized." According to Lowen- thal, this informal organi- zation assisted him in doing his job. Initially, CalFire suffered from such things as lack of cell service, computers and printers capable of printing updates in a timely manner. That is when they could depend on old fashioned processes and unofficial community leaders to give and get information. Folks knew the area and had accu- rate and timely information which was helpful in the response. While the first night was incred- ible to watch, Lowenthal said, "By the second day, there were painful stories." People needed support and "that is when community members really need to stick together." That The Chico State Career Center will host its annual Graduate and Professional School Fair on Wednesday, Sept. 12 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the BMU Auditori- um on the California State University, Chico campus.

He said he believed his broth- er Michael Ray West had battered his father. He said his brother had called him and stated their father was dying from his injuries, but that he would be arrested if an ambu- lance called and "won't go down without a fight." Dale said his brother had firearms and told him he needed more. At 12:28 a.m. a call was placed into the residence and Michael said he was coming out of the front door unarmed. At 12:30 a.m. logs show one person was detained. Seven minutes later med- ical was requested for elderly fall victim.

She has also been yelling at local chil- dren. Someone on Byron Shots A 63-year-old woman on Bobcat Lane reported a white man with brown hair and a minor cut on his arm had jumped her fence and asked her for a light. He said he had just been in a car accident. The woman said he was acting strangely so she fired shots into the air and told him to leave, which he did. The deputy admonished the woman for firing the shots the way she did and advised on safe shooting. Theft • Someone reported the theft of personal items on Johnson Street. tion was reported on Oak Street. Roxy Williams There were not only neighbors, friends, com- munity members, and agency workers, there were school staff and board members on hand, through- out the ordeal, to make as many resources as possible available. Sheriff Hencratt shared that one highlight for him was when he was asked "What can we do to help you, the responding government agencies, so we can be better prepared next time?" Often in the current climate the expectation from people is that the government's job is to take care of them. In Manton and the sur- rounding communities, it is the other way, people reaching out to people and communities pulling together for the betterment of all. Roxy Williams is assistant superintendent of the Tehama County Department of Education and superintendent of Manton Joint Union School District.
