A Thought for the Day - 02/07/11 11:41 PM
My friend, Mike Ferrier, sends out a weekly “thought”, and this week this is a good one and I wanted to get it out to folks that appreciate these kinds of things….always a motivator for me…here it is:
Permission to Dream
 
“Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream,
so shall you become.
Your vision is the promise of what you
shall one day be;
your ideal is the prophecy of what you
shall at last unveil.” ~ James Allen
 
 
Always remember that your thoughts, words and actions become your reality, so always make them positive.  Dream … (4 comments)

Chamberee in Redding a Great Success.... - 02/05/11 06:29 PM
What an enjoyable night at the annual Redding Chamber of Commerce Awards function, Chamberee. Held at the Win River Casino Grand Ballroom, the room was filled with community supporters to recognize the outstanding volunteers and businesses in Redding. This was the 10th Chamberee that I have attended, and this one was as enjoyable as one could ask. The highlight of the evening was the recognition of Dick Green, the former and long term manager of our own Channel 7, KRCR, as the Citizen of the Year. This award was long overdue, as Dick has been a key member of our community … (0 comments)

Multi-Cultural Fair/Festival in Central Valley, CA - 02/05/11 06:21 PM
Earlier today I had the opportunity to go out and see the Multi-Cultural Fair at CV High School. It was a wonderful event, celebrating the diverse  make-up of our population. The United Way had a booth in the cafeteria, but the real show was the show itself, with various groups from throughout the area taking part from dance to sing to native American history moments. The Record Searchlight best described the event in its article this past week, and we, at United Way of Northern California was proud to be part of this event. Here is the article, and please put … (0 comments)

The Weather Outside is Gorgeous...sorry Dallas! - 02/05/11 06:19 PM
As I rode my bike along the beautiful Sacramento River Trail earlier this morning, I could not help but think back at what I had seen an hour earlier on CNN….when they did the pre-Super Bowl thing about the weather in Dallas, TX. Today is over 70 in Northern California, and suppose to be 77 tomorrow….and still we have snow on all 3 of the surrounding mountains, Lassen, Shasta, and Trinity Bally….what a scene with the bright sun and clear skies.
And, as I rode, and reflecting back on the great Chamberee last night, and then the excitement of being part … (0 comments)
