Gomez has been involved with various nonprofits for the past few years, and has enjoyed being able to apply the skills and knowledge she learned in school to real world challenges. She hopes to continuously help her community and make a difference. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, hiking and taking spontaneous trips.

And for convenience, safety and avoiding lines, consumers can pre-order their goods from markets in Marina, Pacific Grove and Salinas by scanning a QR code with their smart phones located on the website at everyonesharvest.org. More info is also available at the green Everyone's Harvest info booth at each market.

As always, safety is a top concern at all Everyone’s Harvest markets.

“A healthy and safe farmers' market is our number-one priority,” said Everyone’s Harvest Executive Director Reid Norris. “Our farmers and vendors, like many small businesses in the community, rely on your continued support to bring you necessary services like fresh food and produce. We are doing this to support local farmers and give people a nutritious option for produce. So if you are able to, please keep supporting us.”

Everyone’s Harvest Farmers’ Markets are adhering to guidelines created in collaboration with Monterey County Health Department, California Department of Public Health, and California Alliance of Farmers' Markets, and are operating under an order from the County of Monterey Health Department determining that certified farmers’ markets are “essential businesses” exempt from the “Shelter in Place” order by the Health Department that went into effect on March 18, 2020.

“Everyone's Harvest is working closely with Monterey County Health Department and the cities of Marina, Pacific Grove and Salinas to best serve the community,” said Norris. “We are closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation, and we have implemented a plan of action for our markets.”

The plan of action includes the following:

•All vendors will receive Monterey County's Guidelines for Retail Food Establishments and we will be closely monitoring vendor operations.

•Everyone’s Harvest asks that all vendors, farmers, and customers not attend the market if they are sick with fever, sneezing, or coughing.

• Best Practices: Market operations will be conducted in accordance with guidelines created in collaboration with Monterey County Health Department, California Department of Public Health, and California Alliance of Farmers' Markets for farmers’ markets operating during shelter in place. This document will be made available at the market as well, and it recommends heightened measures such as extra space between stands, whenever possible, and disallowing sampling or prepared foods at the markets.

•Helping with Prevention: Hand sanitizer will be offered at the Information Booth, and Everyone's Harvest will monitor and, if necessary, restrict attendance so that the market attendees can maintain “social distancing” recommended by the California Department of Public Health. Market attendees are encouraged to keep 6 feet of personal space between themselves. Sanitizing solution will be used regularly at the Information Booth for any frequently touched items or equipment.

•Vendors will wear gloves whenever possible and wash their hands frequently (handwashing is available at all EH markets). Sampling of products is discontinued until further notice.

•Everyone’s Harvest is following all updates given on COVID-19, including guidance from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Monterey County Health Department, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and local health officials.

•Everyone’s Harvest is changing its usual layout of its farmers’ markets in order to increase the amount of social distancing as much as possible. (See below.)

“We will continue to take the actions necessary to help protect the community,” said Norris. “Specifically, if we are notified of a staff member, vendor, or participant testing positive for COVID-19, they will be suspended from any of our certified farmers’ markets until they are medically cleared.”

In order to increase the amount of social distancing as much as possible, Everyone’s Harvest has changed its usual layout of its farmers’ markets.

The new layout splits the market into a waiting zone and a shopping/produce area.

There is a limit of 10 people maximum in the produce area and a limit to the number of people around a booth at one time, with the 6-foot social distancing parameters in effect. Unless a vendor has a two-tent setup, each vendor is limited to one customer at a time.

There are sanitizing station/table set up with wipes and hand sanitizer for customers to use before approaching vendor booths.

Each market will have a list of what produce is being sold by the vendors that day and displaying it at a writing station so shoppers can write their grocery list with the items available and then be in and out of the market as quickly as possible.

Market managers will be on hand to assist customers with their shopping, maintaining the 6-foot rule and making sure shoppers aren’t waiting too long in the waiting area.

Social distancing at Everyone’s Harvest Farmers’ Markets, per California Department of Public Health Guidelines:

Space booths accordingly to increase social distancing among patrons in line and walking about the market.
Ensure that social distancing of six feet per person for non-family members is maintained and make clear that family members [and households] can participate in activities together, stand in line together, etc.
Limit the number of customers at any given time as necessary to reduce outdoor/indoor crowding and lines to meet social distancing guidance.
Increase cleaning and sanitizing frequency of restroom and other high contact areas.
Train employees on best hygiene practices including washing their hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
Offer additional hand washing or sanitizing stations throughout the venue.
Eliminate events/marketing that target individuals that the CDPH has identified as higher risk of serious illness for COVID-19.
Encourage activities such as pre-bagging to expedite purchasing.
Suspend sampling activities.
Increase frequency of cleaning of tables, payment devices, and other surfaces.
Eliminate non-essential/non-related services, such as bands or other entertainment.
At the end of the market, continue to utilize local food recovery systems to feed/donate extra products to populations in need.
If applicable, continue accepting EBT payment.

About Everyone’s Harvest
Everyone’s Harvest was founded in 2002 by Iris Peppard building on her capstone project as a student at California State University Monterey Bay. Since then, the small nonprofit has grown into a robust, values-driven 501(c)3 organization. It operates five certified farmers’ markets and is a catalyst for health-related programs across Monterey County.

The mission is to provide access to healthy, affordable fruits and vegetables through certified farmers’ markets and community food programs. The vision is for every community to have a fair and sustainable food system.

In 2008, Pacific Grove chose Everyone’s Harvest as the organization to run their community farmers’ market. This opportunity was a turning point for Everyone’s Harvest, leading to increased collaborations and partnerships.

More than 2,000 families are served weekly by Everyone’s Harvest markets in Salinas, Marina, and Pacific Grove – with more than 25 small and mid-scale farmers serving them. Everyone’s Harvest takes pride in the growing community of people who value organic food and rely on Everyone’s Harvest for access to local fresh fruits and vegetables.

The farmers’ market locations serve diverse communities and low-income people. Local hospitals host Everyone’s Harvest Certified Farmers’ Markets at Natividad Medical Center and Salinas Valley Memorial Healthcare System. Everyone’s Harvest pioneered access to several public nutrition benefits at its farmers’ markets for everyone to access fresh, local, and organic foods.

In 2012, Everyone’s Harvest was presented with Edible Monterey Bay magazine’s nonprofit “Local Hero” award and in 2013 the Monterey County Weekly newspaper named Iris as one of the “25 for the Next 25” movers and shakers in Monterey County. Iris is always quick to point out, “My success is not just my own. It’s because of everyone involved. It’s about a movement. It’s about food justice.”

Today at Everyone’s Harvest:

Over 50 percent of Everyone’s Harvest Certified Farmers’ Markets farmers are certified organic and come from within a 100-mile radius of Monterey County.
All five of our Certified Farmers’ Markets serve low-income communities and accept Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT), the modern day food stamp.
Two of our Certified Farmers’ Markets are partnerships with medical institutions – Natividad Medical Center and Salinas Valley Memorial Healthcare System – who both partner in the Fresh Rx program.
The organization offers free space to other nonprofits, community groups, and government entities at its markets for public outreach.

Cinnamon Shore Announces Rare, Newly Renovated Gulf-Front Home Hitting the Market This Week

Buyers looking for Gulf-Front property within driving distance of major Texas cities should know about this opportunity to get the coastal lifestyle from homeowners who perfected it.

Port Aransas, Texas, July 10, 2020 - Those who know Cinnamon Shore―the upscale, New Urbanist development on the outskirts of Port Aransas, Texas―know there is only one row of fewer than 20 homes that have direct Gulf views. Owners rarely put these Gulf-front tier homes on the market, but this week, a stunning, recently renovated, 4-story masterpiece will be listed.

Nestled behind protective dunes, 186 Seaside Drive offers almost 5,000 square feet of living space, with five bedrooms, three main living areas, and a top-floor tower and bunk area; an additional 1,600 square feet of porches and decks; and 550 square feet of garage and storage space. Furthermore, the seller will give the buyer the opportunity to complete the coastal lifestyle with first rights to purchase a 35-foot Boston whaler, boat slip, and airplane/boat hangar nearby.

“This is an incredible opportunity to have the Gulf-front lifestyle of your dreams—in an instant,” said Jodi Peters, broker at Cinnamon Shore Realty. “These types of homes rarely make it to the market, and we anticipate high interest.”

Listed at $2.7 million, the residence is built atop Gulf-front property that’s in very short supply in Texas, and the home has value that goes beyond its incredible architecture, interiors and Gulf-front views. “People purchase these types of homes because they want to give their families a place to gather and memories for a lifetime,” Peters said.

Yet the home’s design represents thoughtful consideration of how to enjoy every aspect of beachfront living, and the renovations and additions completed in 2015, before Hurricane Harvey, and after 2018, post Harvey, make it an even more incredible value. The home has undergone extensive cosmetic updates, including new exterior paint, interior paint refreshes, the addition of a Sub-Zero refrigerator to the already incredible kitchen, and refinished and newly stained hardwoods. It also has upgrades that increase its longevity in coastal conditions, including:

New systems, such as the air conditioning system with three units and a whole house dehumidifier
New Marvin windows and door
New foam insulation in attic and walls
New exterior siding with “air barrier” membrane
New Trex composite patio and steps
Newly done work on the metal roof
Cinnamon Shore Realty can share other recent renovations, including details on new landscaping and new window treatments.

Throughout the home, handsome woodwork and trim, coffered ceilings, and other details convey sophistication in a still-relaxed coastal scheme. With a main living space on the ground floor for easy access, Gulf views from all top-floor bedrooms, and extras such as a “man-cave” with its own mini-fridge and freezer, this house meets multi-generational vacation needs and represents a standard of luxury not often found on the Texas Gulf Coast.

To learn more about 186 Seaside Drive, contact Cinnamon Shore Realty at 361-749-185, email jodi@cinnamonshore.com, or view the listing [link to come]. For more about the community, visit cinnamonshore.com.

It is the first new urbanism development for Sea Oats Group, which is fulfilling its vision of a traditional seaside village with a wide array of amenities and recreational facilities intertwined with beach cottages, luxury villas and vibrant town centers. Now comprised of two communities – the original, Cinnamon Shore North, and its new, 150-acre, Gulf-side expansion, Cinnamon Shore South – every detail of the master plan for both is designed to embrace the natural ambience of Mustang Island and the slow-paced charm of a walkable neighborhood.

Kindness Monterey Campaign to Help Restaurants and Those In Need Due to COVID-19 Emergency Will Be Launching New Website

Kindness Monterey, a campaign initiated to help individuals in need and restaurants that have been challenged as the result of the coronavirus emergency, will soon be launching its website to keep the campaign going.

Monterey, CA, July 07, 2020 — Kindness Monterey, a campaign initiated to help individuals in need and restaurants that have been challenged as the result of the coronavirus emergency, will soon be launching its website to keep the campaign going.

The campaign was created by local businesswomen Annee Martin and Maren Elwood, and the website, www.kindnessmonterey.com launches Thursday, July 8, 2020, was built by Carmel’s Tracy Hopper of Hopperopolis, a Monterey Peninsula-based marketing communications company (http://hopperopolis.com/)

The pay-it-forward gift card campaign to help Monterey Peninsula restaurants encourages generosity from the community by purchasing these gift cards to give to family, friends, neighbors, musicians, service providers, small business owners, field workers, frontline medical personnel and first responders. Martin believes that not only are you helping restaurants stay alive and letting them know they are loved and supported by their community, but by paying it forward, you are lifting the spirits and hopes of our entire community.

Restaurants will be able to sign up on the website or can sign up now by calling 831-235-7662 or by email at info@kindnessmonterey.com.

In addition to the website, Martin connected with Kiki Whitman of Kiki Wow Events (https://www.kikiwow.net/), who joined forces with Kindness Monterey to create an online music concert “Monterey Care-A-Thon,” to share the healing power of music by local musicians in an effort to raise donations for local restaurants, support local musicians and feed those in need with the common goal to benefit the community.

Whitman, upon hearing of Kindness Monterey’s vision, saw this as a way to support the community that she has been such an integral part of and will be reaching out to restaurants and sponsors to help get them on board for the campaign. Whitman is a musician herself as well as a producer of music events in the area.

They will create at least two online music events this summer/fall to help raise money to fund the campaign, purchase gift cards for those in need, as well as support struggling musicians who have found themselves unable to perform in public. The dates for these concerts are Sunday, Aug. 2 and Sunday, Sept. 6, 2020.

There is also a related campaign in place to support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County (BGCMC): For every $1,000 raised, $50 will be donated to the Boys & Girls Clubs to provide weekend grab-and-go meals for 6 children. Martin and Elwood are hoping to find business supporters to help sponsor this campaign. Martin, who founded Sanctuary Vacation Rentals, also plans to purchase gift cards and place one in each of her rental homes for visitors and she is hoping to encourage others to do the same.

The campaign for Kindness Monterey began the way many worthy projects begin, with two good friends sharing an idea for a worthwhile cause. Friends Martin and Elwood were talking about how they missed going out to their favorite restaurants and how they could support them during the pandemic-induced closings and reduced operations. Martin and Elwood believe strongly that our small cafes, restaurants, bakeries, coffeehouses, wineries and food trucks are the anchor and fabric of our community and provide so much more than just food and drink. These are the places where we meet to celebrate, share our human connections and live life to its fullest.

Martin, founder of Sanctuary Vacation Rentals grew up in the restaurant business and was trained as a professional chef for 25 years, she felt the emotional and economic pain that the Covid-19 pandemic was having on restaurant owners, many of whom are friends. She was sad as she read some of the signs posted on closed restaurants and messages on their websites. She also noticed that everything that was being asked of restaurants to be able to serve customer was not sustainable.

Elwood who is a visual anthropologist and small business owner herself, also felt the pangs of her customers, many who also were being challenged financially and emotionally. She would leave small gifts of cheer, such as home-baked goods or flowers from her garden to help brighten their day. She saw that these small acts of kindness really made a difference.

Elwood studies cultures with her video camera. She has been busy during the COVID pandemic helping people with their technology and she will be in charge of working with the local restaurants to make sure people can easily buy gift cards to support these great eateries and people in need. Elwood’s website is: www.onsiteexpeditions.org.

Martin had learned from Executive Director Moe Ammar, that the Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce had purchased 25 gift certificates from their restaurant members and delivered them to 25 chamber business members who were experiencing hardship due to the COVID-19 health crises. He told Martin that it really lifted their spirits and that he was going to purchase another 25 the following week and deliver them.

Martin was so inspired that she decided to purchase gift cards on her own and gave them to her church to be distributed anonymously to members in need. She continued to purchase gift cards for friends and businesses that were in need of support and cheer. That small but meaningful action inspired Martin and Elwood to start a campaign to purchase gift cards from restaurants and distribute them to those most in need. In that way it would help both restaurants and the recipients of the gift cards, a win-win for everyone.

Martin decided to adopt one of her favorite restaurants, Mezzaluna Pasteria & Mozzarella Bar in Pacific Grove, and began ordering takeout for her family and friends. She would leave love notes and words of encouragement for the owners Amy and Soerke Peters, but knew something more still needed to be done. Since tourists had not been able to visit the area, and with so many local people now on unemployment, she understood that ordering from a restaurant was something people felt they could no longer afford.

Martin mentioned to Elwood that in Santa Cruz County, similar campaigns have been established, some to help businesses that went beyond just restaurants to include small retail and service providers such as massage, nail and hair salons, clothing and gift stores and other small businesses. So they decided to take a hybrid approach so they could begin reaching out to Monterey County restaurants and the community at large to provide a central platform for gift card giving and information. Martin then reached out to Marci Bracco Cain of Chatterbox Public Relations for help in bringing together a team to develop a logo and website and use social media as a platform to spread the word and find sponsors.

Thus the creation of Kindness Monterey (www.kindnessmonterey.com), which continues to grow and expand. While still in its infancy, Kindness Monterey continues to grow and expand with the love and support of the community. Plans are underway to:

· Provide gift cards weekly to the Food Bank for Monterey to distribute them to those most in need.

· Start an Adopt-A-Restaurant campaign to help support customers’ favorite restaurants thru social media.

· Support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County (BGCMC): For every $1,000 raised, $50 will be donated to the Boys & Girls Clubs to provide weekend grab-and-go meals for 6 children.

· Find individual and business supporters to help sponsor this campaign and to provide matching funds to drive gift card sales. Martin plans to purchase gift cards and place one in each of her rental homes for visitors and she is hoping to encourage others to do similar acts of kindness.

· Organize two online music events called Care-A-Thons scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 2 and Sunday, Sept. 6, produced by Kiki Wow and showcasing local talent. The goal is to help musicians as well to raise money for the restaurant gift card campaign and provide an evening of wonderful music for our community.

The gift cards purchased through Kindness Monterey not only help the individual restaurants, they help those in need of a meal.

Kindness Monterey will continue to provide as long as there is a need in our community. For more information, go to: info@kindnessmonterey.com, like Kindness Monterey on its Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/kindnessmonterey, or call Annee Martin at 831-236-5618; Maren Elwood at 831-238-5503; or Kiki Wow at 831-235-7662. Or, go to the website at: kindnessmonterey.com.

Kindness Monterey Partners

“We would like to express our sincere gratitude to these individuals and businesses

that have helped us build our site, spent numerous hours on research, reached out

to the restaurants and helped get the campaign launched,” said Martin. “We would also like to say thank you “ahead of time” to anyone who is able to help us with the ongoing funding needed to keep the ongoing campaign alive, including the online Care-A-Thon Music Concert Series to help raise monies for our Boys and Girls Club program, Food Bank gift card drive, and support our matching programs.”

For more information about how to offer gift cards and to get assistance setting it up, please contact Maren Elwood at 831-238-5503 or info@kindnessmontery.com

You may also contact Kiki Wow at 831-236-7662 info@kindnessmontery.com.

How to sign up to be listed on the www.kindnessmontery.com website:

If you already have a gift card program in place, Kindness Monterey will initially use the gift card link on your website along with a photo or logo of your restaurant to do the launch July 8, 2020.

However, in order to make the gift card program work easier for the purchaser and to give you the best chance for success, Kindness Monterey highly recommend that you sign up for the Square gift card (https://squareup.com/us/en/l/egift-cards) so that the purchaser and recipient will be able to receive the gift card electronically and instantly with no waiting period.

Kindness Monterey recognizes that there may be some instances in which an actual physical gift card is desired and Kindness Monterey will provide instructions on how best to acquire them from the restaurant either in person, online or through the restaurant’s website. Square does offer physical gift cards for purchase as well.

Kindness Monterey is not in any way affiliated with Square, it's just the quickest and easiest solution at this moment.

Here are the advantages to offering gift cards through Square:

Track where the gift cards originate from.
Participate in promotions, for example, to be able to offer a $75 gift card for $60 or 20% off.
Offer discounts.
Instant delivery: Send to a friend or organization electronically.
Uniform platform for the website.
Allows the most flexibility.
No additional work needed to mail cards.

For more information about the Square program and to get assistance setting it up, please contact Maren Elwood at 831-238-5503 or info@kindnessmontery.com

Monterey Symphony Postpones 75th Anniversary Season, Announces Artistic Content Plans

The Monterey Symphony announced its plans to postpone the 75th Anniversary Season which was slated to open at Sunset Center in October of 2020.

Carmel/Monterey, CA, July 07, 2020 – The Monterey Symphony announced its plans to postpone the 75th Anniversary Season which was slated to open at Sunset Center in October of 2020. This upcoming season focused on selecting the next Music Director of the Monterey Symphony, along with concerts in celebration of the orchestra’s 75 years.

Four finalists were announced in September of 2019: Donato Cabrera, Jung-Ho Pak, Jayce Ogren, and Peter Bay. Bios and information can be found about all four on the Symphony’s website. The Symphony remains committed to the search and intends to proceed in October of 2021. Also on the program, a new work by John Wineglass in honor of the historic Anniversary, featuring violinist Edwin Huizinga; a collaboration with Antioch Chamber Ensemble and the Cabrillo Symphonic Chorus; and a concert featuring the cinematic works of Mark Mancina.

With live performances falling into Phase 4 of the reopening and the current resurgence of cases and the current closure of Sunset Center, postponing the season was a unanimous decision by the board. Programming for the next twelve months includes releasing of archival recordings, musical postcards from the Symphony’s principal players and Balcony Sessions – solo performances from the Symphony’s new offices in Carmel at the corner of 7th and San Carlos.

The Symphony’s full offerings will be available on its website: www.montereysymphony.org and the complete line-up will be announced August 15, 2020.

Neal’s Restaurant & Bar Launches New Menu Starting July 4, Featuring Smoked Barbecue Fare and Comfort Food

Neal’s has chosen America’s birthday to launch its new menu.

Proctorsville, VT, July 06, 2020 - Known for its authentic wood-smoked barbecue fare — including beef brisket, “fall-off-the-bone” baby-back ribs, and pulled pork — an upcoming new menu from Neal’s Restaurant & Bar also covers the comfort food classics.

Neal’s has chosen America’s birthday to launch its new menu. Beginning Saturday, July 4, owner Neal Baron unveils an eclectic mix of food, with barbecue favorites, steaks, burgers, seafood, fried chicken, housemade mac and cheese and a special sandwich it calls the Cluckin’ Russian.

Also on that day, the restaurant has planned a festive Independence Day party, complete with barbecue specialties, drinks and live music.

“It will be a great celebration, and a peek at what lies ahead,” Baron said.

A longtime supporter of local farms and purveyors, Neal’s sources beef from Boyden Farms, produce from Black River Produce, and keeps Vermont craft beer on tap.

Coach Profile Amparo Jauregui-Saldana

As a first generation immigrant born in Mexico, Amparo Jauregui-Saldana grew up learning daily about struggle and sacrifice.

Salinas, CA, July 02, 2020 - Thirteen members strong, the Jauregui family arrived in Madera by 1982, when Amparo was just 8.

“The emphasis of working hard for a better future and education was a daily account in our home,” said Amparo, whose father followed the seasons as a farm laborer.

The longtime coach and board member for Gil Basketball Academy grew up with enough siblings to play 5-on-5 all day long. But there was little time for sports.

“My older brothers and sisters set a high example by being able to work and/or attend school at the same time,” she said. “We all worked through our high school years. This meant we learned about commitment and dedication, but also sacrifice.”

For Amparo, instead of participating in after-school activities, she would work after school, returning home by 9 p.m. “to continue working through midnight, complete my homework so that I can attain my goal of pursuing higher education,” she said.

She graduated from California State University-Fresno in 1999, majoring in Psychology with a minor in Biology. “My education gave me a deep sense of wanting to contribute to my community.” she said.

Amparo came to Salinas in 2008 through her husband, who grew up there and graduated from Alisal High School. With two young boys to raise, they found in GBA a second family “that has helped us find a deeper sense of community,” she said.

The family began to integrate with the GBA's philosophy of giving back, and Amparo soon became a volunteer, coaching the 4-5 age group. GBA gave her a sense of confidence that allowed her to grow. “I began to find a voice to advocate for our youth, through organized groups such as the School Site Council Committees and Alisal High Boosters Parent Club,” she said. Amparo also became a GBA board member and serves as trustee for Santa Rita Union School District.

As an elementary school teacher, Amparo emphasizes the importance of education to her students, something she appreciates about GBA. The academy’s mission not only shapes youth into future leaders, but “it also gives adults an opportunity to be more involved in their own children's lives, to instill good citizenship, and teach them give back to their community”

She believes the group of adult volunteers makes GBA special. “We all are from diverse backgrounds, but with a common goal to empower, expose and give our youth greater opportunities that many of us didn't have the luxury of being a part of as kids,” she said.

Since she was unable to participate in group sports at a young age, Amparo was surprised to witness how being part of a team creates such unity.

“This is exemplified by how we support each other through the years,” said Amparo, who recalls how other GBA parents helped her as she pursued her teaching credential, taking her boys to games and practices when she couldn’t.

And traveling to New Zealand, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Italy and Mexico provided a unique world view that has taught our players how to treat people despite their backgrounds with respect and Kindness.

“But that meant we have to work hard through the years as a team to fundraise and give kids who had never traveled outside of Salinas that opportunity they would not have had otherwise,” she said.

She has seen firsthand how GBA impacts the life of kids through her two sons. “They not only have learned how to balance a life of multiple sports, excelllence in academics, and healthy living, but they also have learned to become young men of good character,” she said.

After being with GBA for 10 years, Amparo has made lifelong friendships. “We support each other and they help give me confidence that I can continue to be a voice for my community. It takes a village to raise our children and through this organization we learn to look beyond our household, give back to others, and help them find their voice”

San Lorenzo Valley Water District secures additional generators to ensure power during future outages

In 2019, Pacific Gas & Electric Co., and other California utilities instituted massive preemptive power shutoffs in 30 counties, designed to prevent wildfires during strong and dry winds

Boulder Creek, CA, July 01, 2020 — In 2019, Pacific Gas & Electric Co., and other California utilities instituted massive preemptive power shutoffs in 30 counties, designed to prevent wildfires during strong and dry winds.

Called public safety power shutoffs (PSPS), these events affected more than 3 million Californians, including those in Santa Cruz County.

The San Lorenzo Valley Water District relies on PG&E power to run its facilities throughout the valley. However, to safeguard against future PSPS events, the district has launched capital improvement projects that include the installation of new generators to help ensure power to pump stations, treatment plants and wastewater facilities.

The district has installed six new stationary generators, bringing its total to 17 that supply power to two treatment plants, 11 pump stations, one wastewater facility, one intake facility, the District’s operations building and administration building.

In addition, SLVWD has secured four new mobile generators, bringing its total mobile generators to seven. These are capable of supplying power to seven well sites and 15 different pump stations.

“During PSPS outages the District asks customers to implement strict water conservation measures to save water in case of fire”

About the District
The San Lorenzo Valley Water District was established in 1941 as an independent special district. The District is governed by a five-member Board of Directors, elected at-large from within the District’s service area. A special district is a local government agency formed by voters to perform a needed service, such as water or sewer. The District’s boundaries comprise approximately 60 square miles and 190 miles of pipeline. The District currently provides service to approximately 7,900 residential, commercial, and institutional connections. The District relies on both surface water and groundwater resources, including nine currently active stream diversions, one groundwater spring, and eight active groundwater wells. The District owns, operates, and maintains two water systems from separate water sources. These sources are derived solely from rainfall within the San Lorenzo River watershed. The District owns, operates, and maintains a wastewater system in Boulder Creek’s Bear Creek Estates..

Max’s Helping Paws Eases Healing For Grieving Pet Owners Through "Rainbow Bridge Tribute Fund”

The passing of a beloved pet can leave us broken and disconsolate.

Carmel, CA, June 25, 2020 - The passing of a beloved pet can leave us broken and disconsolate. Tribute donations are a wonderful way to give in memory of others. Now, there is a unique way to help us heal, honor their memory while helping other pets in a health crisis. Rainbow Bridge Tribute Funds provide pet owners with your own virtual memorial that tells the story of your pet and shares that special relationship with friends and family who might wish to donate in your pet's memory. Most importantly, as the fund is distributed, each page will also share information about those helped in that pet's honor.

With an ongoing mission to help fund treatment for pets in crisis, the nonprofit Max’s Helping Paws Foundation (www.maxshelpingpaws.org) has created a convenient online form for pet owners to provide details so they can personalize their page with pet photos, stories and tributes, and easily be shared on social media. This private memorial fund requires a pledge of $1,000, however a $500 donation begins the set up process for your fund and page. This page can then be shared with others in an effort to reach the pledged amount.

The idea behind Rainbow Bridge came from a supporter of Max’s Helping Paws, Brittney Weinerth, who had lost her companion dog Abagail. Inspired by Max’s “Chestnut Fund” — to help pet owners experiencing severe and immediate personal financial loss resulting from the COVID-19 crisis — Brittney explained to Max’s founder, Dyana Klein, that it would be nice to have an “Abagail Fund” and invite her loved ones to donate to it, as during her grieving process, she struggled to find ways to relieve the pain and honor her bond with Abagail. “It would be really neat to see how the Abagail funds were used to make an impact for other animals,” she said. Klein obliged, and now Max’s is proud and pleased to offer the ability to set up a private Rainbow Bridge Fund in addition to its current Tribute Donation option.

New Test to Determine Protective Immunity to COVID-19 Now Available Through Partnership Between Ethos Laboratories and ARCpoint Labs of Monterey Bay

ARCpoint Labs, the diagnostic testing lab franchise with nearly 100 locations across the U.S., including Monterey, is partnering with Ethos Laboratories to bring a brand new test to market that measures protective immunity to COVID-19.

Monterey, CA. (June 23, 2020) — ARCpoint Labs, the diagnostic testing lab franchise with nearly 100 locations across the U.S., including Monterey, is partnering with Ethos Laboratories to bring a brand new test to market that measures protective immunity to COVID-19.

Tru-Immune™ by Ethos Laboratories is the first Surrogate Viral Neutralization Test (sVNT) to evaluate COVID-19 protective immunity in the United States. Unlike other tests currently on the market, Tru-Immune™ detects the presence and magnitude of neutralizing antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus that could prevent future infection.

“This test will provide personalized information that has not been available before,” says John Constantine, CEO of ARCpoint Franchise Group. “This is the first test that can give you an indication of how effective your antibodies are at fighting COVID-19. We are excited about what this means for individuals, and the value it provides as they make decisions about returning to work and other activities safely and with confidence. ARCpoint Labs is proud to be the first national network of collection sites for Tru-Immune™ as we roll this out.”

According to a recent article published by Johns Hopkins University, neutralization assays are the “gold standard” for determining if a patient has effective antibodies and protective immunity against SARS-CoV-2.

"Tru-Immune is the first test to evaluate protective immunity to the SARS-CoV-2 virus that does not require the use of live virus, cell culture or even pseudovirus,” says Dr. Joshua Gunn, CSO of Ethos Research and Development. “These significant innovations allow us to process samples in less than 3 hours, compared to viral neutralization tests that can take 3-5 days to produce results.”

Blood tests capable of detecting anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies have flooded the market, but none can measure the viral neutralizing capacity of these antibodies.

“If test results indicate the presence of neutralizing antibodies, that means you’ve been exposed and your immune system is capable of inhibiting the virus if you are exposed again,” says Gunn.

More studies will be required to better understand how long the protective antibody response lasts in recovered patients, and this information will be key for developing effective vaccine strategies.

“Behind the scenes, we’re all geeking out about the science involved in this test,” says Constantine, “but we’re most excited about how this information will help with vaccine development and convalescent plasma donations, which could be potentially life-saving. Until we have a vaccine, this could be the strongest defense we have to fight COVID-19.”

Tru-Immune™ has not yet been approved by the FDA for Emergency Use Authorization. Ethos Laboratories has submitted data and statements to the FDA for review.

ARCpoint Labs is now offering Tru-Immune™ in select markets across the U.S., including ARCpoint Labs of Monterey Bay, 24560 Silver Cloud Court, #103, in Monterey. For more information or to schedule an appointment, go to: www.arcpointlabs.com/find-your-location/ or call (831) 324-0772.

2nd annual Concours at Pasadera Car Week 2020 Features collector cars, motorcycles and Hot Wheels 1200 HP, 206 MPH, Drako GTE Hypercar will be exhibited Featured theme: “Ford vs. Ferrari”

For those who couldn’t attend last year’s inaugural Concours at Pasadera, Carmel artist Simon Bull’s artwork for the 2020 event poster tells the story of "Ford vs. Ferrari" and the spirit of the 2020 event through his love of color — and cars as vintage race cars roar past in the fading light of day.

Monterey, CA, June 21, 2020 - For those who couldn’t attend last year’s inaugural Concours at Pasadera, Carmel artist Simon Bull’s artwork for the 2020 event poster tells the story of "Ford vs. Ferrari" and the spirit of the 2020 event through his love of color — and cars as vintage race cars roar past in the fading light of day. The England-born artist has enjoyed international success for his vibrant artwork. The poster reflects a Car Week experience like no other with Bull’s one-of-a-kind, colorfully painted Aston Martin on display.

Concours at Pasadera will provide a complete celebration, with Champagne and delectable hors d’oeuvres, along with cars competing in class awards from Tiffany & Co., and the backdrop of a luxurious private country club and Jack Nicklaus-designed Signature golf course. As one guest said about last year’s event: “Fine cars, excellent cuisine in an atmosphere of casual elegance.” While that may sound difficult to eclipse, members of The Club at Pasadera have every intention of doing just that at the second annual event on Friday, Aug. 7, from 2-6 p.m.

In recognition of exhibitors who have presented outstanding vehicles in prior years, both the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and The Concours at Pasadera will encore previous award-winning automobiles, along with awarding new Class Winners, during their August 2020 events.

The concours will showcase a juried collection of modern, classic, competition, commercial and vintage automobiles, along with motorcycles gathered from club members and enthusiasts. Also featured will be an Alumni Arena, presenting 25 chosen exhibitors from five classes. Guests will experience a tribute to the famed “Ford vs. Ferrari” competitions held at Le Mans between 1966-69. Competition vehicles from both marques will be on display. In all, the exhibition encompasses more than 80 cars and motorcycles from North America, Europe and Asia.

Silicon Valley supercar manufacturer, Drako Motors, will exhibit it's 1200 hp, four passenger luxury electric hypercar, Drako GTE. With a fully electric quad motor architecture, Drako GTE generates 8,800 Nm of combined wheel torque for unrelenting acceleration up to a top speed of 206 mph. Drako GTE will be one out of three Halo Cars to be featured at the show.

The first-ever Hot Wheels Concours will be part of the Pasadera event, inviting both younger and older exhibitors to present their collections for awards. Guests also will enjoy an exceptional culinary experience, with the event benefiting countywide charitable causes.

‘Ford vs Ferrari’

While the focus will be centered on Friday’s festivities, Pasadera will host a pre-Concours party for exhibitors and sponsors on Thursday, Aug. 6, from 5-8 pm, highlighted by a private screening of scenes from the film Ford vs. Ferrari starring Christian Bale and Matt Damon.

The film follows a determined team of American engineers and designers, led by automotive visionary, Carroll Shelby (Damon), and his British driver, Ken Miles (Bale), who build a new racing car intended to defeat the perennially dominant Ferrari racing team at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans in France.

Bring your Hot Wheels

The famous toy from Mattel has become hugely collectible, with fans unearthing pieces that could belong in an investment portfolio. For the 2020 event, the Hot Wheels Concours will present scale-model cars (1967-2020) owned by exhibitors from around the world. Famed collector Bruce Pascal will exhibit a selection of his prized models, one of which will be the famous 1969 Beach Bomb valued at $175,000.

Life-sized Hot Wheels cars also will be a part of this incredible event. The Concours at Pasadera will include Vintage Hot Wheels (manufactured between 1968-1977 with red lines on the tires); Classics (1978-1994); Modern Classics (1995-2020, including the 1995 “Treasure Hunt” launch); Customized (manufacturing dates open); and Special Exhibition (rare examples accepted by the jury). A Best of Show will be awarded, chosen by attending guests by popular vote, given to the piece that best represents the spirit of the show and its exhibitor. Those interested in exhibiting their collection should register here.

See Randy Grubb’s famous Volkstream conversion

Fans of the Emmy-winner TV show “Jay Leno’s Garage” may recognize Grubb as the mastermind and metalsmith behind a series of epic vehicle transformations. Grubb’s 1959 modified Volkswagen looks like a hippie love bus, but has a 2.5-liter Subaru powertrain for a much-needed boost in power.

Pasadera’s Philanthropy

Proceeds from the 2020 Concours at Pasadera will benefit The Bridge Restoration Ministry and CASA of Monterey County (Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children).

The Bridge exists to provide a residential setting for those struggling with addictions, providing safety, structure, discipleship and supervision for the purpose of restoring them back to God, family, work and community. Referrals come from Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital and the Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula, families, local businesses and local and state correctional programs. Its current goal is to acquire a new facility, working with Pepperdine University to obtain a location in Pacific Grove.

CASA trains and supports community volunteers who advocate for abused or neglected children placed in foster care, upholding the children’s rights while pursuing a safe and permanent home.

About Baker’s Bacon
Unable to find bacon that met his high standards for freshness and ingredients, Chef Tony Baker, longtime chef at Montrio Bistro in Monterey, founded his own brand in 2011. Baker’s Bacon began with a partnership between longtime smoke master and bacon expert Steve Sacks at Prime Smoked Meats in Oakland, California. Baker and Sacks worked together for over a year experimenting with cures until they settled on the recipe that is still in use today. The goal was and is to make real bacon — “Bacon The Way It’s Supposed To Be!”

Baker’s Bacon is made in California, dry cured and slowly smoked using real applewood chips. Baker’s Bacon uses only the highest quality, sustainable-raised heritage breed pork. There are no antibiotics or hormones, no gestation or farrowing crates, and it all 100% vegetarian-fed, U.S. family farm-grown pork. It is slowly dry cured and double-smoked using real applewood. It is offered in whole slab, sous vide, or sliced.

Road Trip to Luxury to Cinnamon Shore on the Texas Coast

With global travel on hold or cancelled, Texans are looking for vacation destinations closer to home.

Salinas, CA, June 19. 2020 - With global travel on hold or cancelled, Texans are looking for vacation destinations closer to home. And they do not have to look far or settle for less. Consider a feature on “Road Trips to Luxury” about easy-to-drive-to destinations right here in Texas—with Cinnamon Shore as the obvious choice for the coastal destination!

“Road Trip to Luxury”
There’s an idyllic community on the Texas Coast that combines all the resort amenities a family could want—a broad and breezy beach, luxury accommodations, gorgeous pools, great dining options, family-friendly activities—all without the slog of a drive to Florida or boarding a plane.

New-found luxury on the Texas Coast
Luxury hasn’t always been synonymous with the Texas Coast. But that changed when Cinnamon Shore was established in 2008 on the outskirts of Port Aransas, Texas. The master-planned community nestled behind protective dunes on the Gulf Coast now boasts almost 300 high-end beach residences that serve as second homes and vacation rentals, drawing discriminating, yet down-to-earth families who enjoy beachside luxury when they vacation.

What Sets Cinnamon Shore Apart
The epitome of the New Urbanist architectural movement, Cinnamon Shore is a walkable village that offers the charm of small-town America. Front porches lined with rockers recall the best of Southern architectural traditions, while paver sidewalks and pocket parks promote a neighborly feel. Cottage-style details reminiscent of the grand, old East Coast beach homes that line the Atlantic Coast, help the new community feel rooted to the past. And great dining options, fitness classes, and a roster of activities and events year-round keep guests entertained when they’re not enjoying the beachfront.

Resort highlights include:
Easy beach access over three, visually striking dune crossovers.
Three community pools: The Dune Pool, which hosts paddleboard yoga in a palm-lined setting; Kiera’s Pool, with an infinity edge looking to scenic Lake Gavin; and Stillwater Pool, heated year-round.
Great on-site dining options: upscale Mediterranean-style Lisabella’s Bistro; family-friendly Dylan’s Coal Oven Pizzeria, way more than a pizza parlor; and Coffee Waves, with a premium selection of java, smoothies, and breakfast fare.
Entertainment and activities: Live Music concerts on an outdoor stage; Movies Under the Stars on grassy Town Center; Yoga on the Beach; Paddleboard Yoga at The Dune Pools; Pilates on the Deck around Kiera’s Pool; Beach Bonfire Set-up; Bike Rentals; Fishing Gear rentals; and more.
Two community lakes: Lake Colby, fully stocked with a fishing pier for everyone to use, and Lake Gavin.
Fitness Center, a stand-alone facility with plenty of equipment accessible to all guests.
In-car Check-In and On-Site Property Management for quick solutions to any maintenance needs during a stay.

Help your readers discover an upscale vacation experience right here on the Texas Coast!
Drive times from Dallas/Fort Worth (6.5 hours), Houston (3.75 hours), Austin (3.5 hours) and San Antonio (2.5 hours) beat the 13- to 16-hour drive over to Florida beach resort towns. Instead, Texans can have the same kind of accommodations and beach access right here in Texas.

Make Cinnamon Shore part of your Travel Coverage!

If you are planning any features on drivable destinations, consider featuring Cinnamon Shore as the go-to coastal vacation spot for luxury. Nearly built-out and thriving, the development has started a quickly rising sister community just about one mile away. Cinnamon Shore South is making the Cinnamon Shore lifestyle available to even more Texans. Work on its incredible pool complex is under way and first homes have finished in time for summer rentals. Guests at Cinnamon Shore South have full access to all the amenities at Cinnamon Shore, nearby. In the meantime, Cinnamon Shore is a bustling, festive place for coastal getaways year-round—and we are following CDC guidance on sanitizing and social distancing.

Cinnamon Shore. Tradition Starts Here.
