Last week, Abbie Crews wowed us with her impressive piloting story and a pilot’s view from the cockpit of a CALFIRE tanker! So sorry if you missed her!
Field Trip to The District Ranch
Several years ago an 80 acre ranch off McCourtney Road was gifted to our local high school district with the intention that the property be used for agricultural and educational purposes. The School Ranch is now in full swing providing a broad ranch of hands-on learning opportunities for our high school ag students.
This Thursday we are meeting at The School Ranch at 5:30pm ~ instead of Round Table. Should be fun!
Directions: Leaving the Fairgrounds, take McCourtney Road 6.6 miles until you reach Chukar Rd on the right side, immediately before the old Country Store. Chukar is the 2nd right turn, (less than 1/4 mile) past Clear Creek School.
From Grass Valley, the drive typically takes about 15 minutes. Plenty of parking is available, so carpooling is not necessary unless you prefer to do so.
This year, we are partnering with Peace Lutheran Church as they do their regular CRV bottles/cans collection event, on Saturday May 30. The public can make it a one-stop recycling day at the church to drop off your CRV bottles and cans (along with plastic #1, 2, and 5) with the Church team, then leave all your Lithium Ion (rechargeable) devices and batteries with our Nevada City Rotary team.
Eligible items include cell phones, tablets, laptops, electric toothbrush handles, e-shavers, vapes, wireless headphones and earbuds, Bluetooth speakers, power tool batteries, e-bike batteries, video game controllers, etc.
Additional volunteers needed …please contact Chris Newsom if you can assist!
