Grant will allow Beachfront Park upgrade By Diana Bosetti The Pilot
A $5 million grant from The Statewide Park Program will make a significant portion of Crescent City’s Beachfront Park project possible. An exuberant Eric Wier, Crescent City’s city manager, took to social media recently and shouted out the infamous words of Jerry McGuire “Show me the money.” “The state is telling us, we will show you the money, we will show you $5 million, and in return we will be able to build this park,” Wier said.
The funding will allow for the construction of a bike park, will double the size of the current KidTown, create an ADA-compliant one-mile loop and new entryway, as well as a cultural interpretive trail encompassing the east side of the park. “A lot of credit in our award needs to go to Holly Wendt (Crescent City’s former city recreation director), and the community who came out and supported this project,” Wier told The Triplicate. “Without the community, we would not have received this award. One
important acknowledgment is to the Tolowa Dee-Ni Nation and Elk Valley Rancheria for their hard work and engagement on our cultural interpretive area. It is another key component of why we have five million reasons to celebrate this holiday season.” As part of the same project, Piece by Piece Pottery, a local company that draws in the talents of high-risk youth to create tile-based projects, also received $10,000 from the city to create a tile mural. That project will highlight Crescent Please see PARK, Page A5

With the fire danger increasing almost every year, State Sen. Mike McGuire is hoping to add more than 1,000 firefighters to Cal Fire’s ranks before next year’s fire season.
McGuire pushing for hundreds of new firefighters By Diana Bosetti The Triplicate
State Sen. Mike McGuire and other state legislators announced their intent to pursue a non-partisan bill that would add 1,124 firefighters to Cal Fire’s ranks, preferably before next year’s fire season. “I want to be candid, California is facing a firefighter shortage and we can’t wait another year to fix it,” said McGuire on Dec. 10 from the steps of the state’s capitol. The bill calls for the state to spend up to $214 million for the immediate hiring of 1,124 firefighters, which would include
356 full-time firefighters and 768 seasonal hand-crew personnel. The bill is slated to be introduced in early 2022, and would further mandate that there be at least three firefighters per engine, plus a year-long study to determine staffing needs over the long term. Once completed, the report would be forwarded to the state governor and legislature. “Fixing the Cal Fire firefighter shortage will help make sure we can fight these wildfires and protect the communities that we all call home,” said McGuire. McGuire, who represents the North Coast region, including Del Norte County, was joined by State Senators Shannon Grove
and Brian Dahle, as well as the president of Cal Fire Local 2881 - Tim Edwards. According to Edwards, Cal Fire Local 2881 includes 7,200 personnel. “That may sound like a big number, but we protect anywhere from Oregon to Mexico from the Pacific to Nevada borders,” Edwards said, adding that the geographic reach totals 33 million acres. Over the last two years, California has faced unprecedented wildfires. In 2021 there were 8,619 fire incidents and 2,569,009 acres burned, according to Cal Fire. The length of the fire season has also increased by
75 days across the Sierras, which in turn is impacting firefighters working hours and mental health. “What I’m about to say no firefighter wants to talk about,” McGuire said. “Firefighters are working long overtime hours and many times they are working up to 40 days in a row without a single day off.” McGuire also reported that over the last four years, 54,000 calls to state mental health hotlines have been placed by firefighters. “Cal Fire firefighters have dedicated their lives to keep us safe, and now we as a state need to step up and keep them safe,” McGuire said.

A motion failed to reduce Del Norte County’s cannabis retail tax to two percent in order to compete against non-taxed cannabis retail businesses in Crescent City, and will instead remain at six percent. “When I spoke with City Manager (Eric) Wier yesterday as to why they landed there (not imposing a tax), he said that they wanted to promote business,” said Commissioner Valerie Starkey, who made the first motion to reduce the retail tax to two percent. “There’s some truth to this, right?” asked Chairman Chris Howard. “It is a barrier to business, and if we are causing some harm, potentially, that is something for us to consider.” Currently, Sticky Grove marijuana dispensary is the only cannabis retailer operating within unincorporated Del Norte County. Robert Derego, who owns the company, stated he and his wife work full time to bring in a combined salary of about $40,000. In comparison, Del Norte County received about $60,000 in tax revenue from their business, according to Barbara Lopez with the Del Norte County tax collector’s office. “I can’t write off my rent and I can’t write off labor,” said Derego. Derego added he employed three senior citizens preCOVID, but likely won’t be able to bring them back on staff. In 2018, Measure B was approved by 62.75% of the voters. The measure enacted a 2-6% gross receipts tax on non-medicinal retail business; a 1-3% gross receipts tax on cannabis manufactures; a $1 per square foot tax for outdoor cultivators; and a $3 per square foot tax on indoor cultivators. Each year, the commission votes on what the tax rates should be. Prior to its passage, Del Norte County banned commercial cannabis activity. Derego said to the commissioners that prior to Measure B’s passage, he was informed that retail cannabis would likely only move forward if it could be taxed. “That’s kind of like somebody’s gotta get their beak wet,” Derego said. “The community was led to believe that they were voting for pot, Please see CANNABIS, Page A3

The Sundance Ballet Company presents The Nutcracker The Sundance Ballet Company, presents Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker on Saturday, December 18, at 7 p.m., and on Sunday, December 19, at 2 p.m. at the Van Duzer Theatre in Arcata. Let your holiday spirit soar with this traditional family-friendly ballet. Adventure awaits as Clara and her Nutcracker prince battle the Rat King and embark on a journey through the Land of Sweets with the Sugar Plum Fairy. Led by Sundance Ballet Company’s own Carrie Badeaux and the magnificent dancers from Humboldt County’s semi-professional ballet company, this joyous classic provides cherished memories for years to come. The dancers of the Dance Scene Studio compliment the cast of guest and company dancers for a show of seventy performers. This production is the only full traditional Nutcracker Ballet on the north coast and is enthusiastically enjoyed by audiences every year. The Sugar Plum Fairy will be danced by guest artist
Nicole Enders and her Cavalier will be danced by Josiah Moran, both from the Redding area. Artistic Director, Carrie Badeaux said, “I am so happy to have this grand-scale Nutcracker production for our community and dancers. I’ve grown up dancing and staging the show and it really signifies the holidays for me as well as for so many of our dancers and audience members.” Young aspiring dancer, Ella Ranario, will dance the role of Clara and Katie Kitchen will dance the role of the Snow Queen. Katie reflected on her dance path up to now and said, “The very first time I saw the Nutcracker was when I was 5 years old and it was on the Van Duzer stage, where I’ll be performing. I remember thinking how magical all of the dancers looked on stage. It was the snow scene that made me fall in love with The Nutcracker. Now, to be dancing the Snow Queen is a dream come true and something that I greatly cherish.” Despite last year’s restrictions, the company maintained the Nutcracker
tradition by filming two days of special performances and then shared it for audiences to enjoy from home. New theatrical props will grace the stage as well, with Drosselmeyer’s unique mechanical clock shop opening the show. Extra theatrics will help maintain the theater magic, as all performers will dance wearing masks. Audience members will be masked too and will show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test within 72 hours prior to admission. Advance tickets for the performance are $15 for children ages 12 and under or $20 for adults. At the door ticket process are $20 for children and $25 for adults. Tickets may be purchased online at DanceEureka.com, at Wildberries Marketplace in Arcata, or at The Dance Scene Studio. Founded in 2013 by Artistic Director Carrie Badeaux, The Sundance Ballet Company is now celebrating its most exciting season yet. The company began with a few dancers and has exponen-
tially grown and created many original ballets. Today’s versatile company consists of twelve highly skilled semi-professional dancers and an abundance of ambition. The Sundance Ballet Company provides both classical and contemporary dance to the entire Humboldt County region through outstanding performances, entertaining demonstrations, and innovative educational outreach programs for people of all ages.

OBITUARIES Margaret DeVault
Marvin Mattz
10/06/1937 – 12/10/2021
July 20, 1943 - December 8, 2021
It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Margaret Ann DeVaut who slipped away from us on December 10, 2021, at Weisbrod Memorial County Hospital in Eads, Colorado. She was 84 years old. She is preceded in death by her husband, Stewart DeVault. Margaret was born on Oct 6, 1937 near Warner, Oklahoma to George and Fay Sheppard and had one sister. She attended Bethany University in Santa Cruz, California where she met the love of her life, Stewart DeVault, and they married in Santa Clara, California on January 1, 1961. They later welcomed their son, Stanley. Margaret bought a restaurant in Crescent City, CA in 1973 and renamed it “Granny’s Kitchen”. She owned and operated it, with the help of her husband, until 1983 at which point, she decided to pursue a teaching career. She graduated from California State University, San Bernardino and started teaching in Brawley, California and got her

certification in Special Education. She later moved to Modesto, CA and obtained a Master’s degree in Special Education. After several years of educating students with special needs in California she decided to move to Kit Carson, Colorado to assist her mother with her restaurant business. Margaret expanded her mother’s business by adding a hotel and adding on to the restaurant. She was always a hard worker and known to be someone who would get things done. Margaret also greatly enjoyed fellowshipping with her church family, playing the piano and singing religious hymns, and occasionally teaching Sunday school. Margaret leaves behind her son Stanley and her sister Virginia. Funeral services for Margaret DeVault were held on Tuesday, December 14, 2021, at 6:00 p.m. at the Praise Community Church in Eads. Burial followed on Wednesday, December 15, 2021, at the Kit Carson Cemetery. Memorial contributions should be made to the Praise Community Church; Box 391; Eads, CO 81036.

a program,” Derego said. “I heard they would like a zip line. Or, it could go to First Five or to one of the school district’s music departments. I would be OK with that.” County staff responded the tax proceeds could be allocated to fund a community resource, but that the decision would be for one year and wouldn’t bind the funds in future years. The commissioners who voted to keep the tax rate at current levels didn’t discuss the possibility of allocating the funds outside of the general fund, and passed the measure without discussion.
Yurok Tribal Elder, Marvin Mattz, was born on July 20,1943 to Emery and Geneva Mattz and passed on December 8, 2021. A lifelong Del Norte County resident, Marvin resided on the Elk Valley Rancheria. He was an expert fisherman and the best rower on the Klamath River, even if that sometimes meant he had to stand up in his boat to row. He taught numerous nieces and nephews how to fish and row a boat, passing along cultural knowledge and values. He spent his life on the Klamath River,
fighting alongside his twin brother Raymond Mattz for the preservation and protection of Yurok Tribal fishing rights. Growing up, Marvin was a great athlete, and he was always encouraging the boys to “keep the left hook going” and had many fond memories of playing basketball with his cousins. He was an avid cribbage player and would intimidate anyone he played with, especially his nieces and nephews. Marvin loved to dance, especially to Merv George.
Anytime there was music, he was dancing and was coveted as one of the best dancing partners. He also loved learning, traveling, watching PBS, and was eager to share facts and ideas about a variety of topics which made for fun and interesting conversations. Marvin was a strong advocate for education and volunteered as a grandparent in local schools. He drove awok Archie Thompson to the Klamath River Early College for nearly a decade to support the students with Yurok culture, language, and mentoring. He greeted us with, “what’s the good news?” and cared deeply about the well-being of children and families. He was proud that many Yurok children went to college. He wanted the Yurok Tribe to create job opportunities and childcare
for its members so all Yurok families could be self-sufficient. Marvin was preceded in death by his parents Geneva and Emery Mattz; twin Raymond, brothers Jack, Emery and Tony; sisters Betty, Janet, and Nadine; and daughter Tabitha. He is survived by his sister Lavina Bowers, his grandsons Darren and Daniel Harwood, great grandchildren Damien and David Harwood; and numerous nieces, nephews, and friends. Marvin loved his momma, was the youngest of ten children and was always the baby in the family. He reminded us all of his parents’ values and wishes for everyone to love one another and take good care of each other. He was loved by many people and will be greatly missed. Services took place Friday, December 10, 2021, per Marvin’s wishes.

Responsible gun owners need to be heard By Ben Long I own a closet full of guns. But nowhere in that closet is ammunition. That is locked up elsewhere, reflecting a rule I was taught in childhood. Guns are powerful, even deadly, tools. If you own one, it’s on you to keep it safe. That is what the parents of a Michigan teenager failed to do, and their son murdered four of his fellow high school students. Not long ago, safety seemed gospel for gun owners and the gun industry alike. But something has changed. Responsibility has been discarded in a twisted form of gun idolatry. That change is detailed in a new book, Gunfight by Ryan Busse. He’s a gun industry boss who walked away from the industry he championed and the company he helped build. His book documents a shift in America’s culture about guns and politics. Disclosure: Busse is a friend of mine. I bought one of my favorite rifles from him. We both live in the same town in Montana where the gun industry is a significant economic player. Entering our town of Kalispell, there’s a billboard from one of our local gun manufacturers that claims “We build the things they want to ban.” As an “open carry” community, you can sometimes see moms and dads packing semi-auto pistols as they push a swing on the playground. At a recent high school band concert, one parent wore a T-shirt featuring an AR-15 like a crucifix. The
shirt read: “Guns are my religion. I am the priest.” I don’t know what’s more weird, the T-shirt itself or the fact it barely raised an eyebrow. Back in 2019, some local high school kids here organized a rally in response to the police murder of George Floyd. About 100 vigilantes came to my town’s square, carrying high-capacity semiautomatic rifles. They said they were there to “keep the peace.” I carried a cardboard sign that borrowed a quote from the federal Supreme Court building: “Equal Justice Under the Law.” I looked around for a parked car to duck behind in case gunshots rang out. Busse was there, too, and we felt the change. As hunters, we understand the reality of even a single bullet traveling 2,000 feet per second. Clearly, our local vigilantes were no kind of “well-ordered militia” or even a sanctioned sheriff’s posse. Busse’s company sold tried-and-true rifles, shotguns and handguns, madein-America to a high standard of craftsmanship for legitimate, legal uses. That was the brand he tried to build, a standard he tried to live by. But Busse describes in Gunfight how guns have become political props and ideological symbols. Under this new narrative, any attempt or even discussion of limiting firepower in the hands of random people is denounced as tyranny. Industry spokespeople who dared question this narrative saw their careers ruined. The end result is the sale of rocket-propelled
grenade launchers in the public square. There are cultures on earth where you can find such an arms market, but they are in failed states, not democracies. Democracies draw a line between responsibility and unfettered liberty. Anarchy denies any line exists. You don’t have to look far for this toxic mix of anarchy and firepower. In Oregon in 2016, an armed band of disgruntled white men took over the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, taunting federal authorities until one man, LaVoy Finicum, was shot and killed by Oregon State Police. In Michigan in 2020, a group of armed men took over the State Legislature. Not that long ago, these gun owners would have felt a backlash from fellow gun owners. The idea is that irresponsible gun ownership anywhere is a threat to legitimate gun ownership everywhere. Yet some want to make Rittenhouse, who was acquitted of legal liability but still faces potential civil suits, a folk hero. The Missouri attorney is running for the Senate. The mastermind of the Oregon refuge takeover is running for governor of Idaho. I believe it is on responsible gun owners to keep our guns safe in our homes. It’s also on us to speak out for responsibility in our communities if we are to maintain our freedoms and our democracy. Ben Long is a contributor to Writers on the Range, writersontherange. org, a nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West.
DEAR ABBY By Abigail Van Buren DISCOVERY OF NEIGHBOR’S PAST SHOCKS NEW FRIEND DEAR ABBY: I recently learned my neighbor shot and killed her two young kids (14 and 2) more than 20 years ago and served only half of her prison sentence -- six years. The newspaper said she called the police herself, confessed and was arrested and incarcerated. I have only known her for two years. She’s very reserved and keeps to herself. She seems paranoid, but she has warmed up to me because we both dabble in art. Since I’ve learned this information from the internet, I don’t know how to feel about her. This was a horrendous act, and I’m having a hard time processing. What are your thoughts? -- PERPLEXED IN THE SOUTH DEAR PERPLEXED: Why did you find it necessary to research your neighbor? Did someone suggest it, or do you do that with all of your neighbors? If what you discovered is indeed true, there must be a good reason why she was freed after serving only half her sentence. I think, because you have questions, the person you should ask is her. DEAR ABBY: I have known my ex’s friend for more than 12 years. Long story short, we are now “friends with benefits.” When I stay over, he almost always portrays himself as a good catch, but when it’s time to act like one outside his home, he doesn’t. He says, “Dating is too hard,” and “We should take it one day at a time.” He constantly tells me I will make “someone” a good wife and that I should have no problem finding someone. Must I just enjoy the best benefits I have ever had, or should I move on? -- CONFLICTED IN MASSACHUSETTS DEAR CONFLICTED: Much
depends upon what you really want. If what you want is a husband, children and a future, you should take this man’s advice and find “someone” other than him. If it’s great sex and nothing more, you must decide whether you want to stick around for the (wild) ride. No one can decide that for you. DEAR ABBY: I have a dear friend of many years who makes a habit around her birthday of getting as much free food as she can from restaurants and stores. She collects coupons for birthday freebies and makes sure to cash them in, whether it’s a free soft drink or dessert or lunch. She brags to me about how much stuff she got free and put in the freezer for later. Her husband does the same thing around his birthday. Neither one works, and both of them live on Social Security. They are not poor; they travel often. Is this extreme resourcefulness or is it more like greed and gluttony? I’m leaning toward the latter. -- BITING MY TONGUE IN TEXAS DEAR BITING: I am leaning toward the former. This couple is taking advantage of what is offered. They are not harming anyone, many people do it. It’s common practice, and there is nothing wrong with it. Stores and restaurants make these offers available for promotional purposes. Your relationship with these dear friends will last a lot longer if you judge them less. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Letter to the Editor Please be careful On Wednesday, December 9, I was walking my doggie on one of the trails off of Point St. George by the airport, when I observed a woman ducking down behind my car and walking down the street yelling. I thought little of it until I tried to drive away and found that, without any provocation at all, she had stabbed my back left tire. It cost $222 to replace the tire, and insurance won’t cover that with the deductible. Do we need park rangers to patrol that area so that ordinary citizens can feel safe on our beautiful beaches? This woman was back there the very next day, I observed, perched on her bluff like it was all hers and no one else allowed as I observed from afar. I filed a police report, of course, but to what effect? If someone is displaying a hostile wrath toward the public at random, should not they be “picked up”? I have been told previously by a dispatcher that if people are just yelling at each other or at the air that it’s not a threat...well I beg to differ. I believe this is a small enough community that these few individuals could very well be remanded to a behavior health unit and get some help. Some of them do real damage to property and well being. People, please be careful out by Point St. George. Linda Stevens Crescent City

Holiday Stress Busters By Bryan Golden
41% of those polled are stressed by the holidays. Fortunately, there are many ways to bust holiday stress. Set realistic goals. Your expectations should correspond to your circumstances, time, and money. Don’t try to outdo family and friends. You don’t have to impress anyone. A wonderful holiday season doesn’t have to be expensive. Set a manageable budget and stick to it. Determine before you go shopping how much you will spend on food and presents. Entertaining doesn’t have to cost a lot. Sumptuous meals can be prepared without expensive ingredients. Use your imagination and creativity. If there are lots of people on your gift list, contact them and agree to a maximum cost for each gift. They will probably appreciate a pre-set spending limit as much as you will. Consider making your own gifts, such as baked goods or crafts. A variety of free or low-cost activities are available. Many communities provide holiday programs such as parades and winter carnivals. Informal gatherings with friends and family can be lots of fun without obligating anyone to host a big party. Accept relatives and friends for who they are. Put aside differences; don’t try to resolve them during gatherings. Bringing up past issues will not add to the seasonal joy. Divorced parents need to be extra sensitive to their children’s emotions. Make children’s needs a priority and avoid using them as pawns. Children want to spend time with both of their parents so work together to facilitate reciprocal visitation.
If you are hosting a meal or party, ask each guest to bring a dish. Delegate responsibilities to your spouse and children. Everyone will feel included and no one has to carry the full load. Don’t snap at others. Have rules and guidelines for older children returning home for the holidays. Ask guests to supervise their children if they get too rambunctious. Plan ahead for what you want to accomplish before the holiday rush starts. You can pace yourself if you have enough time. Spreading out activities leaves you calmer and more relaxed. Prioritize what you want to accomplish. Organize your time to allow for the most important tasks. Say no to requests that don’t fit your plans. Be flexible. Make time for yourself. Maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating properly, exercising, and getting enough sleep. It’s normal and ok to feel sad during the holidays. Life is unpredictable and brings many changes. Don’t compare today with the good old days from your past. Take charge of your life. Don’t act like a victim. Spend time with supportive and caring people. Help others by volunteering. Whenever you bring a smile to someone’s face, you will feel better too. Make realistic resolutions. Set goals you can accomplish. Don’t abandon your resolutions after a few weeks. After the holidays, actively working towards your goals will keep you positive and focused on the good in life.

Pratt named 2021 responsible transportation champion The Coalition for Responsible Transportation Priorities has named Humboldt Transit Authority General Manager Greg Pratt the 2021 North Coast Responsible Transportation Champion. Pratt is being recognized for his remarkable efforts to keep public transportation running in Humboldt County throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, while at the same time preparing for a rapid transition to zero-emission buses and initiating work on a much-needed downtown Eureka transit hub. “HTA oversees almost all of the public transit in Humboldt County, and Greg has done an incredible job at the helm for
many years,” said CRTP Executive Director Colin Fiske. “Even with all of his accomplishments and many years of service, though, nothing could have prepared him for the last couple of years. Running an effective public transit system during a global pandemic is a near-impossible task, but Greg has somehow managed it. Not only that, but at the same time he has been working behind the scenes to plan for long-term transit improvements, like a major hub in downtown Eureka, and to ensure that our local bus fleet hits zero-emission targets ahead of schedule.” “HTA is in the process
of applying to the state for a grant that will replace 10 diesel buses with 10 zero-emission buses,” Pratt said, “effectively removing 600,000 miles per year of greenhouse gas emissions in Humboldt County. And that’s only the beginning.” The North Coast Responsible Transportation Champion award is given each year to a leader who furthers CRTP’s mission of “promoting transportation solutions that protect and support a healthy environment, healthy people, healthy communities and a healthy economy on the North Coast.” Past recipients include State Senator Mike McGuire, former McKinleyville Community Services District Director Mary Burke, and

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO
sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 683-2468 or visit this Internet Web site www.servicelinkasap. com, using the file number assigned to this case FHAC.277-852. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. For sales conducted after January 1, 2021: NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (800) 683- 2468, or visit this internet website www. servicelinkasap.com, using the file number assigned to this case FHAC.277-852 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Candlelight Walk Auction benefits Redwood National and State Parks, Sue-Meg and More The A 32nd annual Candlelight Walk had a virtual audience from all over the country this Saturday. But the Candlelight Walk’s fundraising for local parks is not over. The event’s auction is now also online and will run through Saturday, December 18, at 9 p.m. The auction features more than 130 items ranging from getaways to local gift certificates. Since the draw of the virtual walk event is now much larger than the local community, organizers sought out experiences and retailers that would appeal to people both here in the North Coast of California and Southern Oregon. “That meant getting national retailers to donate like Costco, CVS and Starbucks,” said Debi White, Redwood Parks Conservancy’s support services manager, “but we also got attractions
like Dollywood in Tennessee and flights from Contour Airlines.” The greatest draws could be the local art and jewelry that will appeal to anyone from Holly Yashi, Fire and Light and others. The auction also features several national park and outdoor themed items. The auction is at https://app.galabid. com/candlelightwalk21 or can be accessed at https://www.facebook.com/ Redwoodparks/ Proceeds from the auction benefit Redwood Parks Conservancy, a local nonprofit organization that supports the interpretive, educational and preservation mission at Redwood National and State Parks, Smith River National Recreation Area, Tolowa Dunes State Park, Sue-Meg State Park, Fort Humboldt State Park and other state parks along the north coast.

What Should I Know About COVID-19? Two of a series of four
How are we stopping COVID-19? There are several ways to prevent spread of COVID-19, but the best tools are vaccines. The US Government worked with the pharmaceutical companies to develop, manufacture, and quickly distribute vaccines across the country. There were no shortcuts in this process; the vaccines are safe and effective, based on years of research into similar virus types.
Why is there conflicting information about masks? Before the pandemic, there was little real-world research into the effectiveness of masks. Last year we learned that wearing masks and social distancing really help prevent the spread of COVID-19,
