springITon We have a little extra spring in our step these days! We couldn’t have been more delighted (and humbled) to receive the Redding Chamber of Commerce’s Business of the Year Award last month. We’re so proud to illuminate the people and places that make our community such a special place to live, work and play, and it was a thrill to share the stage with the Chamber’s other enterprising and service-minded award winners. Thank you for your part in this magazine’s success – we share this honor with you.

And now, let’s march into our latest issue…

As days grow longer, we count on the sunshine to warm up our lakes and coax dormant plants into blooming beauties. Tom O’Mara and Alice Wilkinson, on the other hand, have harnessed the power of the sun to light up their lives. Their solar-powered Happy Valley dream home is designed to take full advantage of nature’s gifts.

Want to pick up a new hobby? The Shasta Mayflies are teaching women how to fly fish, and they’re building sisterhood along the way. If you’re looking to push your body to the limit, check out the first Slide Ride Run Glide Xtreme Mobility Event, where participants will ski, cycle, run and either canoe or kayak across the finish line.

Author Berthold Auerbach once wrote, “Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” This month, we introduce you to people who are playing, teaching and sharing the magic of music. Meet 16-year-old double bassist Katie Wallace, one of nine students who have earned the honor of traveling to China with their instructor, internationally acclaimed bassist Barry Green. They’ll be playing with China’s Youth Symphony and various conservatories at the Beijing Philharmonic Concert Hall.

Drum teacher Steve Joseph was awed by Ringo Starr in the 1960s, and is now paying it forward. “Steve is a double threat. He’s an excellent drummer and an excellent teacher,” says Foothill High School band teacher Mitch Bahr. “I’ve never had a kid take lessons from Steve and not be totally inspired.”

Musician and video producer Tony Armsdon’s passion for music prompted him to create “The Wright Sound,” a new music series at Pilgrim Congregational Church, designed by renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright. “The music jumps out of the walls,” Armsdon says. “There’s not another building that looks like this or sounds like this.”

Wherever life takes you this month, take a moment to listen to the music. Enjoy!

“Last Year over 350,000 people died from the same cause…

Don’t Let Your Luck Run Out!!!”

Dear Friend It’s hard to believe, I know, but it’ true. Last year, more Americans were killed by prescription drugs than by guns, AIDS, suicides and terrorists combined… But we will get to that in a minute.

Ten years ago something happened to me that changed my life forever. A long time family friend called and told me she had terrible pain shooting down her leg, not to mention headaches so bad she had to take eight Advil a day just to make it through work and she was beginning to have digestive trouble (probably due to all the Advil). After I did an examination and took some films, I adjusted her spine and put her on a corrective care plan. Immediately things began to happen. The pain in her leg was gone and within a few weeks she wasn’t having the headaches. And since Advil was a thing of the past, Mexican food was back.

But even more amazing was her cat allergies that had bothered her since childhood seemed to vanish and she hadn’t used an inhaler for symptoms of asthma in years! She could now live her life without the limits of pain and sickness. I say this experienced changed my life because this wonderful friend became my wife and mother of my children. Seeing the difference those simple, specific adjustments made in her life has made me confident and passionate in my profession which is chiropractic.

Now as for my children, Kennedy, Madison, and Patrick, they were adjusted within the first hour of birth. They obviously didn’t complain about neck pain or back pain, I adjusted them to keep them healthy…as with all the hundreds of children I care for in my office.

You see, it’s not normal for kids to get ear infections, asthma, allergies or a number of other illnesses we see clear up in my office everyday. When the nervous system is working correctly, your internal resistance and healing powers are enhanced.

A healthy family does not rely on medication to make them well. My family does not take medication to seek health and we don’t have a “medicine chest” in our home. Due to years of advertising saturation from the pharmaceutical companies, most Americans seek health from outside-in and most families have a “medicine chest” filled with an average of 16 different medications. In an average year, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports over 2.2 million US hospital patients experienced adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to prescribed medications. Approximately 7.5 million unnecessary medical and surgical procedures are performed annually in the US, while approximately 8.9 million Americans are hospitalized unnecessarily.

Last year, the WHO reported 783,936 deaths due to medications people took… and 160,000 were when the drugs were prescribed correctly. More people died last year from medication than at Pearl Harbor and Vietnam. Amazing, huh?

If drugs make people well, then those who take the most should be the healthiest, but this simply isn’t

Kremer Family Chiropractic Scott Kremer, D.C. Doug Faulke, D.C. 1615 Main Street Red Bluff, CA 96080 530-527-0220

the case.

Many people are beginning to understand that health comes from within. This is why chiropractic helps so many people. You see, GOD created a body that can heal itself. Your body doesn’t need any help: it just can’t have any interference. With Chiropractic, we don’t add anything to the body, or take anything from it. We find interference in the nervous system and remove it, thus enhancing the healing capabilities of the body. We get tremendous results…it really is as simple as that.

Here’s what some of our patients have to say: “I originally came in because of back problems. I told Dr. Kremer of my seizures-grandmal and petitemal.

I have had seizures for over 40 years. I had seen many physicians and neurologists with no results in 40 years.

The medications only covered symptoms and made things unpredictable. In seeing Dr. Kremer, I have had only 3 seizures, very, very mild ones, in 3 years and have found I have a normal life, to be able to do ordinary things without fear. I can ride a horse again and take long walks.”

(S. Cook) “I had back and neck pains. In the early 1990’s it was caused by hard work and old age. It was severe enough I couldn’t sleep at times. My results with Dr. Kremer have been great! Dr. Kremer’s treatments have kept me from having back surgery. It’s great not to have so much pain.” (K. Bennett) “I had back and hip problems for about four to five years after I slipped on some cooking grease and have had problems with my back going out disabling me from walking or even moving at all at times. I also had allergies and asthma that was making me prone

to ear infections and severe colds. I had never been treated by another physician or chiropractor. My mother-in-law referred me to Dr. Kremer. Over time, I have had an increase in mobility, my ear infections have stopped, and less intense allergies.” (D. Retzalf) Being a chiropractor can be tough because there’s a host of so called experts out there. They tell people a lot of things that are just plain ridiculous about our profession…usually it’s “My neighbor’s sister’s friend said…” Let me ask you, do you make your health care decisions based on honest facts or biased opinions?

Interesting question, isn’t it?

NOW… Find out for yourself and benefit from our AMAZING OFFER. Look, it shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg to correct your health. You are going to write a check to someone for your health care expenses, you might as well write one for a lesser amount for chiropractic. When you mention this article within 2 weeks of receiving this offer, you’ll receive our entire new patient exam for $17. That’s our full exam, with x-rays… the whole ball of wax. This exam would cost you $239 any other time. Further care is very affordable and you’ll be happy to know, that I have affordable family plans. You see I’m not trying to seduce you to come and see me with the low startup fees, only to make it up with high fees after that. Further care is very important to consider when making your choice of doctors. Hight costs can add up very quickly. By federal law, this offer excludes Medicare and Medi-cal beneficiaries.

Great care at a great fee. Plexase, I hope there is no misunderstanding about the quality of care just because I am offering a lower exam fee. I utilize several different adjusting techniques in my office to better serve you. If you prefer manual techniques or Activator, it makes no difference to me. I’m here to serve you and to make a difference in your life. I’ve been entrusted to take care of tiny babies to 98 year olds for over 10 years now. I’m just offering this low fee to help more people.

Our assistants are great and absolutely full of love.

Our offices are both friendly and warm and we try our best to make you feel at home.

We have a wonderful service offered at an exceptional fee with three different locations to serve you. We are open six days each week. Call today for an appointment! We can help you.

We Listen, We Care, We Get Results.

Thank You. Dr. Scott Kremer Chiropractor for Children and Adults P.S. When accompanied by the first, I am offering the second family member this same examination for only $10.

benefit for remi vista and shasta disabled sports usa Spring in Mount Shasta brings warmer days and cool nights, resting in the tension between winter and summer. The Mount Shasta Ski Park is completing its final runs. Runners and cyclists emerge from their winter slumber. Lake Siskiyou fills with melting snow, welcoming boaters. The days are a confusion of snow, sun and water.

Taking advantage of this unique time is the first Slide Ride Run Glide Xtreme Mobility Event.

Hosted by Remi Vista, Shasta Disabled Sports USA and Mount Shasta Ski Park, this fundraiser helps the children of Northern California while providing a one-of-a-kind, multi-sport contest.

On April 17, participants will be skiing, cycling, running and then canoeing or kayaking across the finish line. “There is no other event like this with a winter sport component and a wider range of athletic activity,” says Leslie Finch, one of the event coordinators. “All the funds will benefit Remi Vista and Shasta Disabled Sports USA.” Remi Vista is a nonprofit organization that provides therapeutic services to children and families, with the goal of providing a safe environment and restoring families. Last summer saw its first wilderness program for youth and is expanding this year.

Shasta Disabled Sports USA is a group of outdoor enthusiasts who formed a nonprofit to help people with disabilities enjoy an outdoor experience. They are found camping, skiing, canoeing and taking advantage of the myriad of activities around the Mount Shasta area, year round.

“I started talking to the Ski Park and Shasta Disabled Sports USA about how we might work together,” says Finch. “We brainstormed coming up with something wholly different from other events and fundraisers. We chose the last day the Ski Park is open, and the day after its annual Pond Skim so people can make it a whole weekend excursion.”

The course is designed for individuals and teams. The first leg is skiing from the top of Marmot Ridge through the Nordic Center,

reaching then to County Road 31 until the snow ends. The bike leg loops one moderate hill to the Mount Shasta Resort, which is providing the facilities for the next transition. Runners will then travel down a trail from the resort over the dam, stretching for the final event at the Lake Siskiyou beach. Entering kayaks and canoes, contestants will then complete a one-mile triangle marked by buoys on Lake Siskiyou. Finch says, “The route is designed for the average individual, not just the expert. It’s meant to be fun for everyone, with every finisher receiving a T-shirt.”

Families may register as a team or choose to have younger children compete in the Munchkin division in front of the Ski Park Lodge.

Children 10 and under will have their own activities in the learning center. The children will ski, snow shoe, slide and throw snowballs.

Teams and individuals may register in person at Remi Vista or at the website. Volunteers are also needed and can contact Remi Vista to sign-up.

“I’m excited by the amount of collaboration and how our community can gather around families and children, “ Finch says.

“This is a one-of-a-kind event.”• www.slideriderunglide.com • www.skipark.com www.shastadsusa.org/mission • www.remivista.com Remi Vista: 1107 Ream Avenue, Mount Shasta (530) 926-1436 Gary VanDeWalker grew up in Mount Shasta, 12 years ago returning from the San Diego area with his wife Monica.

It’s your future...be there healthy with WellnessOne! “Dr. Meredith is first in class and his entire staff is amazing!! I had always heard about chiropractic care but I was always a skeptic. After several continuous months of lower back pain I knew I needed something besides all the meds my doctor was giving me. All I was doing was masking the pain. After talking with Dr. Meredith and discussing how chiropractic care could benefit me I decided to give it a go. It has been over four months since I have had any pain and I feel great!! He also has several nutrition support products to utilize in tandem with chiropractic care. Dr. Meredith believes that the human body was designed to heal itself and if you provide your body with the support it needs it will do just that. Take for example the common cold, with my wife running a day care from our home I was sick a lot. Since I have been in Dr. Meredith’s care I haven’t been sick once. Pretty amazing stuff. I am a believer now and I will recommend Dr. Meredith to anyone who is interested in becoming healthy. My quality of life has drastically improved and I owe it all to the good people of WellnessOne of Redding. You won’t know the benefits of natural healing unless you give it a chance. I am sure glad I did.”

solarPower A n energy- efficient, sola R - powered home

Destiny was fully charged when Tom O’Mara met Alice Wilkinson, a co-worker at the Shasta County Juvenile Justice Center, in 1985. This romance was built on a higher power. Both wanted to build their own home and were fascinated by solar energy. O’Mara had built a scale model of his “dream house,” complete with a functioning solar capability. “To my jealous amazement, Alice had a better collection of solar models,” O’Mara says.

Today, O’Mara and Wilkinson live in the energy-efficient, 3,200-square-foot Happy Valley home that they designed and built.

It includes 45 photovoltaic solar panels that generate enough power to supply all their electrical needs. Their living room has a passive solar window wall and tile floor that generate about 50 percent of their winter heat. The window orientation and landscaping keeps the inside of their home as much as 27 degrees cooler in the summer than outside air temperatures. For heating water, a rooftop solar collector in the summer and thermo-syphon coils in their wood stove

in the winter provide more than 75 percent of their hot water needs.

Wilkinson says, “To some extent, it is a way of pursuing security independent of the monetary system.”

O’Mara, retired from social service and education, and Wilkinson, a retired educator, refer to their passion for energy efficiency as a “whole house approach.” They talk about pursuing a lifestyle that is consistent with their attitudes about conservation. “I wanted to counter the impression that being energy efficient is ugly, doesn’t work and is too expensive,” O’Mara says. “ Most guests don’t notice our house is solar.” The solar panels are on the roof, and the glass wall acts as a passive solar heat collector. This creates a living room atrium that is filled with indoor plants and is awash in natural light. During the short winter days, it keeps the house bright and warm. During long, hot summer days, the sun arcs across the sky at a different angle and doesn’t shine directly into the house.

continued on page 22

March 2011 Enjoy 21

“The house is a living experiment and it works,” O’Mara says. The December that O’Mara and Wilkinson were building the house, the tile contractor called to let them know they had left the heater on.

O’Mara laughed; the heater hadn’t been installed yet. That was his first indicator the passive solar window wall was a good idea.

In addition to being environmentally friendly, their home has a transparency between its indoor space and the outdoor gardens.

The house is surrounded by two acres of irrigated and thoughtfully planted landscaping, with windows and plantings coordinated to take advantage of the light, solar opportunities and views. Wherever you are in the house, looking out a window provides beautiful views of the gardens and mountains. Water for irrigating the two-acre garden comes from a 406-foot-deep well powered by electricity generated from rooftop solar panels.

Bruce Blake of Power House Solar helped O’Mara and Wilkinson install the most recent set of photovoltaic panels on their roof.

“The cost of installing rooftop solar panels to PG&E customers is paid back by utility cost savings in about eight years, on average,” Blake says, estimating about a 17 percent return on investment.

“For Redding Electric Utility customers, it doesn’t pencil out.

Redding rates are lower than PG&E, they don’t use the tiered pricing system that PG&E uses and they don’t offer rebates to help offset installation costs,” Blake says.

O’Mara and Wilkinson spent $24,000 after rebates to install their solar panels. “It made more sense for us than buying an SUV,” O’Mara says. “I thought, maybe as an old man, solar electric might be affordable, but as energy costs rose, solar makes more sense.”

O’Mara and Wilkinson still have plenty of spark in their romance and the power they get from the sun is just one more way for them to shine. • 22 Enjoy March 2011

Music

Story: Phil Reser

the rhythmic , personal music of blame sally Pam Delgado was raised in a Latin family culture along the Central coast of California.

Her first musical performance was in the fifth grade, when she made drums and shakers out of coffee cans and sang John Denver songs for a class assignment.

After years of contributing rhythm and vocals as a side musician, along with Renee Harcourt and Jeri Jones playing guitars and basses and Monica Pasqual on keyboards, she’s part of the all-female folk rock band Blame Sally.

More than just a rhythmic supporter with the band, she’s an equal voice in the group’s music.

Says Delgado, “I use hand drums, playing with brushes, cymbals and a stomp box. I give you the illusion of a drum kit in some ways, and it works well with us because it doesn’t really step on anyone’s melody or vocals; it’s not that loud. I can blend into the diversity of sounds that we develop around our songs.”

Poised for greater national attention, they’ve performed for audiences across the United States, sharing festival stages with the

likes of Los Lobos, Ani DiFranco, Richard Thompson, Roseanne Cash and Greg Brown.

“We’ve got a lot of musical influences in this band,” Delgado says.

“Jeri and I grew up listening to a lot of the same kinds of music. My mom was into country music and her dad played a little country stuff on the guitar, so we had country, gospel and rhythm and blues in our childhood backgrounds. Monica is a classical trained pianist and that’s her strongest influence. And Renee’s father was a jazz musician, so she has a lot of that influence. We all had some bluegrass and rock ‘n roll stuff along the way, so somehow, it all came together with all of us in a sort of mishmash of music that on some levels is a little bit hard to define, but to our audience, it’s recognizable and familiar.”

The group has been playing together for 11 years now, and in 2008, it got a five-year, three-album contract worth half a million dollars with Bay Area Opus Music Ventures, backed up by generous creative and tour support that has enabled them to finally become full-time musicians. 

All four women have had successful careers outside of music as a photographer, graphic designer, soundtrack producer and ranch manager, but Delgado says none of their friends or family were surprised that they leaped at the chance to pile into a bus and rock out like kids.

They came together in 2000, with the goal of just creating music together for fun. They all had solo as well as other group projects going on, and they wanted to be able to play together and write music without the pressure of commercial interests.

“Monica and Renee had both been in the Bay Area as singer/ songwriters for years and years,” explains Delgado. “Both of them individually wrote songs, worked with bands and made records for many years on their own. They actually used to go head to head with one another in national songwriting contests, competing against each other. They both always loved and respected each other’s songs and it was very ironic when they ended up working and collaborating in Blame Sally. Jeri and I have backgrounds as side musicians and being hired for recordings. That’s how we worked our way up and became involved with Monica and ultimately Blame Sally.”

Blame Sally began by playing small venues like the Bazaar Cafe in San Francisco. “We produced a few shows – basically, made up our own venues when none existed,” Delgado says.

After a year or so, San Francisco radio station KFOG picked up on them and began playing the band’s music on the popular “Acoustic Sunrise” show, leading to more gigs and bigger venues.

They got national attention through XM radio, when what would become the Starbucks channel picked up some of their songs.

Although they got a late start in pulling together their dream band, they now are making sophisticated music and they bring a lot of life experiences into their lyrics.

The band uses personal and topical issues to fuel their powerful songwriting and jubilant ensemble musicianship.

Whether through the anguished voice of an Afghan war veteran, the cancer survivor finding humor in New Age bromides or the woman whose passion comes on like a summer thunderstorm, the songs they write and perform are rich with authenticity and emotion.

“Storytelling is probably the most important element to us,” says Delgado. “It’s a beautiful way to produce songs with emotional content that’s able to hit people deeply. Telling truthful stories is very important to us, whether it be about our politics or what’s going on in our lives. People come away from our shows having a very intimate experience. It’s because of the story content, to a large degree, and we like that.” • Phil Reser has written stories on major American rock and music acts for newspapers, magazines and radio stations since receiving his journalism degree from San Francisco State University. His media contributions include the New York Times, San Francisco Examiner, Chico Enterprise-Record, KCHO & KFPR Public Radio, Blues Revue, and Rolling Stone magazines.

“One of the finest Americana bands in the country right now... like a folk– based U2.”

thewrightsound pilgrim congregational church welcomes A new music series

Great architecture tends to resonate in the creativity it generates in human beings. In this regard, it’s not surprising that Pilgrim Congregational Church has long been a focal point for such inspirations.

Designed by the renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright in the late 1950s, the building is home of the United Church of Christ and has long been the venue for Shasta High School’s extravagant Madrigal Dinner.

Starting April 2, it will serve as a performing arts venue for a new music series called “The Wright Sound.”

Musician and video producer Tony Armsdon formulated the idea not long after experiencing the church for the first time.

“It’s totally inspired by the space,” Armsdon says.

“When I came in here, it just floored me. The music jumps out of the walls. There’s not another building that looks like this or sounds like this.”

The first event (set for 6 pm April 2) will feature jazz vocalist Joe Catanio backed by a combo that includes bassist Bruce Calin (“A Prairie Home Companion”), pianist John Gonsalves, trumpet player MacKenzie Hughes and Armsdon on drums and percussion. The event will include two sets of music and an intermission with wine and hors d’oeuvres.

The church was designed by Wright just before his

28 Enjoy January 2011

death in 1959 and was one of his last designs. He agreed to the project, saying (according to church literature), “If I like the ‘feel’ of a job, I take it.”

Built by members of the church, the project had its setbacks. Limited funds delayed the work and forced changes to the original design. Only the fellowship hall of the original design was completed.

Still, the building serves as a beautiful worship space for its congregation and the members enjoy inviting others to experience the space for artistic ventures, says minister Ann Muir.

Pilgrim is a “joyful, faithful Body of Christ that happens to have a beautiful building designed by a famous architect,” wrote Muir in an e-mail interview from Cairo, Egypt, where she’s been living for a portion of the winter. “We love and celebrate the arts in Redding and are interested in sharing our building in order that the community has another beautiful and unique venue for artistic events.”

The church members see the new series and similar events as a way to serve the community.

“Other than the Madrigal Dinner, the building is not so well known,” Muir says. “The acoustics are wonderful and the venue is beautiful and unique. We’re interested in expanding community use for artistic ventures which 

are consistent with our ministry and spiritual presence in Redding.”

After the first concert, future shows are being planned for July, October and December 2011. Armsdon wants to film the upcoming events to produce PBS specials similar to the well-established “Austin City Limits” program, a public television mainstay.

“I like the idea of this intimate vocal storytelling where the artist really communicates with the audience,” Armsdon says. “It should be a wonderful experience and something totally unique to the North State.”

The first concert will feature Catanio, who has performed throughout the Bay Area alongside premier jazz musicians such as Dick Hindman, Mary Fettig and Grammy Award-winner Marc Russo (Yellow Jackets, Kenny Loggins, Doobie Brothers). Catanio has also performed in Las Vegas with the renowned Milton Berle.

“What a privilege to do an intimate concert in a venue like this,” Catanio says. “I’ve played a lot of big venues and some intimate venues, and the opportunity to play a venue where the audience is right on top of you with the acoustics and design of the church is so wonderful. I feel like the music is going to really be channeled through musicians and myself.”

Catanio is promoting his recent album, “Stories” (Ten K Records), which features songs that reflect many of the watershed moments of his life. Catanio co-wrote one of the songs on the CD and it features Grammy-winner sax player Ernie Watts on four tunes.

“Every song has a profound meaning to me and I’m going to give a little bit of a story behind each of the songs,” Catanio adds.

In addition to the four main concerts, Armsdon hopes to produce in-between shows that might include anything from theatrical performances to spoken-word poetry. For the concerts, he foresees a mix between top area artists and professionals from beyond the region.

“It’s the only Frank Lloyd Wright building in the State of Jefferson,” Armsdon says. “It’s a visceral experience to perform in here. This building might make you a better musician.” •

shasta mayflies fishing club

The Shasta Mayflies were founded 10 years ago by former fishing guide Rachael Andras in response to her encounters with women who needed help with all things fly fishing. Begun with only a dozen members, the club now numbers almost 100 fly fishers—novice to expert—from throughout Northern California and Southern Oregon.

Mayflies Vice President Linda Slater says many women feel more comfortable fishing with other women because they tend to share information. While the club is largely female oriented, many of its members have husbands or other family members who fly fish, and Slater says their participation is welcome. “We’re here to promote fly fishing, conservation and friendship for everyone,” she says. “And food! We love to cook.”

The Shasta Mayflies fish streams, still-water lakes and alpine lakes

as well as private waters. The mandatory fees collected from the latter support the club’s charitable involvements. Favorite destinations include the Trinity River in April and Hat Creek in May, but Slater says, “We will go anyplace we can find a fish mistress. “ The club’s monthly meeting features programs on casting and fly tying, as well as presentations by guides on the best places to fish.

Usually the Saturday following the monthly meeting, the group organizes an outing either in Northern California or Southern Oregon.

While fishing is recreational for the Mayflies, it’s also a means to help others. “Our passion beyond fly fishing is really women and children,” says longtime member Marsha Caranci, who also chairs the FishCamp Scholarship Committee. Annually, the club awards $750 scholarships for the best essays written by kids age 10-15 on 

why they want to go to Fish Camp and learn to fly fish. Funded in collaboration with the Shasta Trinity Fly Fishers, the award covers the costs of the Redding Fly Shop’s summer camp at Antelope Creek Ranch in Siskiyou County.

The five-day program includes instruction in casting, fly tying, basic entomology, safe wading and a leave-no-trace conservation philosophy. Last year, the fund awarded six scholarships and Caranci says, “They come back to our meetings after camp and tell us about their experience. Our goal is to get at least two kids a year involved in fly fishing.”

The Mayflies also participate in Casting For Recovery, which provides fly-fishing retreats for women who have (or have had) breast cancer. The club supports the program through contributions of time and money, and encourages members to volunteer at the annual onstream events held in Mount Shasta and Fall River Mills.

After being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004, Mayflies Board Member Cris Hartman attended the no-cost, three-day Casting For Recovery program at Clearwater Lodge in Fall River Mills. It was there that she learned about the Shasta Mayflies from a volunteer.

Hartman says, “I had fished all my life, but I had never fly fished.

(At the lodge) you learn the techniques, what kinds of flies to use and about the real insects that fish eat. They have you practice and then you get out on the water on the last day.”

The program is open to women in all stages of breast cancer recovery. Hartman says that in her group, “There were women who still had drains in, who were still going through chemo. There was a guide for each woman. For those who couldn’t stand, they were given chairs to sit.” She says it was a bonding experience with other women sharing the same struggle. It was also an opportunity to learn about

fly fishing while reconditioning muscles that had been lost through cancer treatment.

Although the club is passionate about its good works, it’s the fishing that brings them together. “Placing that fly on the water and watching a fish come up and take it, the ambience of that is wonderful,” says Slater. Hartman, who says she found a new hobby as the result of her Casting For Recovery experience, adds, “I would encourage anyone who has an interest in fly fishing to attend a meeting or two and to go on one of the outings.” • Claudia Mosby is a writer and educator in Northern California where she also facilitates a writing workshop for incarcerated women.

Nature Hike

SutterButtes the smallest continuous mountain range in the united states The Sutter Buttes introduce themselves somewhere south of Orland as you’re traveling along Interstate 5 through some of the flattest land imaginable. You glance to the east and there they are, looking like leftover props from a North State production of “The Land That Time Forgot.”

Odds are you take a look at them whether it’s your first pass or your 500th. There’s something so improbable about a mountain range popping up smack-dab in the middle of the Sacramento Valley that it’s hard to resist a glance or two.

Michael Hubbartt didn’t even bother resisting. He became familiar with the Sutter Buttes in the early 1970s when he was stationed at Beale Air Force Base near Marysville and worked as a weather observer. “From my site I looked at the Buttes every day for three years,” Hubbartt says. “I met a gal out here and got married, found a place to live on the north side of the Buttes in 1977 and that was the beginning of my love affair.”

A few years later, in 1980, a neighbor invited Hubbartt along for a hike in the Sutter Buttes and the affair became a permanent relationship. “We walked in on New Year’s Day. We walked and walked and ended up on top of North Butte. As we climbed up, we broke through the fog and into the bright sun, and there were six peaks poking out of the clouds. It’s just an incredible memory.”

Poking up from the valley floor amid carefully cultivated fields and rice paddies, Hubbartt says the Sutter Buttes are both “out of place and out of time. The fascinating thing to me is they are much the way they were 150 years ago. That essence is still there. You get a sense of the way California used to be; a sense of peacefulness.”

Hubbartt and others are working to ensure others can enjoy the Sutter Buttes for years to come—and that they will retain the very qualities that can create memorable experiences.

“We would like to see future development frozen, but we recognize that families work around here. We just don’t want to see speculative building and subdivisions,” says Hubbartt, adding that it is an ongoing balancing act involving numerous stakeholders.

Toward that end, Hubbartt volunteers his time as a board member of the Middle Mountain Foundation, a non-profit organization established in 1989 to work with private landowners and local, state and federal agencies to preserve the Buttes’ natural and cultural resources.

According to the foundation, the indigenous Maidu people, who lived in the vicinity for thousands of years, revered the Sutter Buttes as a source of both spiritual and physical sustenance. Maidu Indians 

called the peaks “Histum Yani,” which, depending on the source, translates as either The Middle Mountain or Spirit Mountain.

Prior to the development of dams and levees for flood control and irrigation, the Sutter Buttes would serve as an inland island refuge for the Maidu, early settlers and wildlife when winter storms and spring runoff would flood the Sacramento Valley.

“The Middle Mountain Foundation recognizes the spiritual heritage of the mountains,” Hubbartt says. “The Indians lived in concert with the mountain and the landscape. That’s the memory we want people to take away when they visit the Sutter Buttes.”

The Sutter Buttes are the remains of a volcano that erupted about 1.6 million years ago, Hubbartt says. From the interstate, it looks like an elongated mountain range but it is almost exactly circular, measuring about 10 miles across. Its highest peak, South Butte, clocks in at 2,117 feet—a full 117 feet above the geologists’ minimum elevation to qualify as a mountain.

That distinction gives the Sutter Buttes a unique claim to geologic fame: It is the smallest continuous mountain range in the United States.

Land within the Sutter Buttes is almost all under private ownership. However, the Middle Mountain Foundation has worked out agreements that allow the foundation to offer guided hikes. Karen Morrison, a foundation board member and the hike coordinator, says about 2,000 people, including schoolchildren from Sacramento, Yuba, Colusa and Sutter counties, go on hikes each year.

“We offer all kinds of hikes so people have a chance to choose their level and come in and enjoy the Buttes,” Morrison says.

Margit Sands, the foundation’s president, grew up with the Sutter Buttes. Her grandfather purchased a cattle ranch in the center of the Buttes in 1898 and her family continues to operate it.

“We want to see the Buttes preserved,” Sands says. “They stand out because they’re the only relief on the valley floor. People see them as a landmark. It’s kind of an icon.” • Jon Lewis has been a writer for the past 31 years, working at newspapers in Woodland, Davis, Vacaville and Redding.

Story: Terrie Salvagno-Barr

when the showing appreciation for orland ’ s volunteer firefighters A child of the ‘60s, I was born and raised on the west side a firefighter’s daughter. Back then, Orland was a little smaller, life was a little slower, and for certain, Orland was a “Mayberry RFD” little town. Even so, there was always an instantaneous sense of urgency when on a clear, warm afternoon, you heard the resonating pitch of the Orland Volunteer Fire Department’s fire siren – at first a slow, low groan, then quickly rising to a near-deafening roar if you were near its source.

And near I was. My dad was a volunteer fireman from as far back as I can remember, and his workshop was within a block of the siren that produced that familiar noise. At the first recognizable tone, all five of us kids would run to Dad: “The fire whistle is blowing! The fire whistle is blowing!”

(As though he couldn’t hear it himself !) Dad would drop what he was doing, pull off his work apron and charge to the firehouse across the street like a Sprint Cup driver on his final lap. Every second was precious – the passing of a careless instance could make a difference.

Moments later, I would see my dad, the shiny red fire trucks, sirens wailing and horns blasting. I would watch them rush by, the firefighters bravely hanging on to the back of

42 Enjoy March 2011

the engine. In the eyes of a child romantic, firefighters were heroes who rode like fiery knights on “steeds of red.”

For a child, there is little understanding of the urgency that accompanies the whistle. But as years go by, life fills your memory with visions and sounds you will never forget.

Some are good and some are bad, and like the sweet smell of freshly mowed grass on a summer’s day, some will always be associated with a time, a place, a moment.

There were times the whistle blew in answer to a dark, rising cloud of smoke in the sky; there were times the whistle blew moments after the power went out; there were times the whistle blew in harmony with the siren of an ambulance, and other times the whistle blew for who knows why. No matter what the call, the sounding of the whistle meant someone was in distress, someone needed help, and thank heaven, someone was on their way. Even in the middle of the night, I could hear my dad’s untied boots hit the floor and rush to the door.

Time passed, and I grew up and moved away. One day I came back, and the Orland I saw was no longer the Orland I had left. The kids no longer “cruised” Fourth Street on Friday nights, my old alma mater had been replaced and many of

the bustling shops of the downtown district were but empty storefronts. I was saddened until I heard an old familiar friend… at first a whisper, than a wail. The fire whistle blew, the volunteers charged for the firehouse and the engines went rushing by. Once again, I felt the old spirit of a small town come alive.

The town is coming back, and the streets are busy again.

Orland’s hope for the future is bright. For this volunteer fireman’s daughter, Orland would not be the same without the fire whistle, and for this small town, life would not be the same without the volunteer fire department. A new generation of volunteers has replaced the old, but we, and they, are still the same. We still see smoke fill the skies, and we still see people in need. The families of firefighters still see their heroes rush to the call of dispatch. We still watch the trucks rush by, and though we may not know for whom or for what, we take a deep breath and rest assured in knowing someone is on the way “when the whistle blows.” •

Terrie Salvagno-Barr is the granddaughter of the late Honorary-Exempt fireman Ernie Salvagno, the daughter of retired fireman and Past Chief Bill Salvagno, and the sister of third-generation fireman and current Department Secretary Craig Salvagno.

The Orland Volunteer Fire Department’s CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION Saturday, March 19 A parade will kick off the event at 9 am The parade route will run from downtown to the fairgrounds, where a host of activities are planned for the day from water polo and bucket brigades to fire suppression techniques and a special program for kids.

The 100th Annual Fireman’s Ball will be preceded by the “Chief’s Dinner,” a semi-formal affair honoring the Department’s historic milestone. Dress to impress as Flaherty Hall will be transformed into a gala dining hall to host the event with cocktails from 5 to 6 pm in the “Fahrenheit 451” Lounge... the fireman’s hot spot! A prime rib or riesling chicken dinner will be served at 6 pm. All tickets for the cocktail party and dinner will be presold and are available for $45 online or by contacting Terrie Salvagno-Barr at (530) 865-4717.

The Fireman’s Ball begins at 9 pm with the North State’s hottest band, “Northern Heat,” playing until 12:30 am. You must be 21 to attend the Ball, and tickets will be available for $5 or donation from any OVFD Fireman or Terrie Salvagno-Barr. Tickets for entry to the dance and happy hour beginning at 8 pm may also be purchased at the door.

lustrouslocks get fuller hair with laser therapy

Everywhere you look, beauty seems to be defined by someone’s hair, and how long, thick and lustrous it is. But what about the millions of people who have thinning hair? Thanks to Elana Hay, a hairstylist at The Velvet Loft, there is now a machine—right here in the North Sate—that can help create a fuller looking head of hair.

Laser hair therapy has been around for years. Not to be mistaken for a hair transplant, which helps to re-grow hair, laser therapy uses a non-thermal (cool) laser at a low level to bathe the scalp and hair in a therapeutic red light. It is the light that produces a fuller-feeling and thicker-looking head of hair.

Hay has been a hair stylist for 10 years and noticed that her clients’ number one complaint was having fine, thin hair. “People who are losing their hair have lower self-esteem, and I got into this business to help make people feel better about themselves,” Hay says. “Just giving someone a product doesn’t get to the root of the problem.”

She researched hair loss for three years after her own hair began thinning as a side effect of medication she began taking after she was in a horrible car accident. She moved to Redding in 2006 and began looking into buying her own laser. She finally bought it last November, and instantly began her own treatments. She shakes her bob and shows off the new hairs, asserting that her own hair has been growing in nicely, thanks to the laser.

Because she is not a doctor, Elana cannot claim to re-grow hair; however, the laser she uses is the same strength as the ones found in doctors’ offices, but no license is required.

Initially, Hay recommends her clients come in twice a week, for 30-minute treatments for about a year. After that, because hair grows at different rates (usually around a half-inch per month), maintenance is done on a personal basis.

Science has shown that natural light is beneficial to the body in many ways. Whereas hot lasers will remove hair, as in laser hair

removal, cool laser light helps to stimulate the follicle. The light increases the blood flow and oxygen to the scalp so the hair coming in is stronger. As the hair cell is among the fastest growing cells in the body, the effect of laser light treatments on the scalp and hair is beneficial in creating an energizing effect that enhances the appearance and feel of the hair.

Hay says that while she loves being a hair stylist and doing hair, her ultimate goal is to go further into other methods of hair restoration.

She says she can’t help wanting to help people achieve fuller, thicker hair.

“I like how it makes people feel,” she says. “A good haircut can make someone’s day. I just like making people feel good.” • Melissa Gulden returned to Redding four years ago, just in time for Enjoy!

She has a master’s degree in English and a bachelors degree in journalism.

She is a teacher at University Preparatory School and a member of The Dance Project, as well as a certified MAC makeup artist.

Business

ahhhh....

NUTS!

north state businesses aim to help us eat local

Taking a cue from local agricultural bounty, two North State business owners are doing their best to make sure we all go nuts – as in walnuts, almonds, pecans and pistachios.

Maisie Jane Hurtado, owner of Maisie Jane’s California Sunshine in Chico, and Larry Carper of Taste of Tehama in Red Bluff are on a mission to make local food more readily available to local people. In the case of nut crops, most local residents are familiar with the glorious blooms of almond trees each spring and can appreciate the symmetry and grandeur of old majestic walnut orchards. But the crops themselves are primarily exported to areas where they are more commonly incorporated into primary dishes.

For Hurtado, the idea to raise the local profile of almonds started as a Future Farmers of America project at Chico High School. She’d already had a strong breeding sheep project, but she wanted to explore her family’s almond business, noting that her brothers “had their tractor time.” Plus, “I always liked cooking and always enjoyed my mom’s roasted nuts.” She sold some sheep and market animals, worked at the farm for money and bought her first ton of almonds. “That was big money for a 17 year old,” she laughs.

She immediately got to roasting in her mom’s kitchen, perfecting flavors such as her mom’s famous tamari (“she always made those when I was growing up”) to orange spice to richly covered dark chocolate. Before long, she was selling her creations at S&S Produce and farmer’s markets in the Chico area. Not long after, she received a thick stack of rules and regulations from the Butte County Health Department. Not to be discouraged, she decided to move 

March 2011 Enjoy 49 Maisie Jane & Family

forward, inspired by her joy in connecting with the community through her products. She rented a commercial kitchen, though she had to use it in the off hours, which meant she was roasting and flavoring late into the night and early morning.

Now, 16 years later, Maisie Jane’s has grown into a thriving family business with its own processing facility, a large retail space and internet presence.

Her branded products, including flavored almonds, almond butters, almond butter cookies and caramel nut corn, are available at retail outlets throughout the region. She has expanded her retail business to showcase the products of other North State farms, including her brother Berton Bertagna’s Son Kissed Vineyards, Lucero Olive Oil of Corning and Chico Chai. As for her own products, she says, “We are the grower, processor, packer – which is so rare these days.”

While her business started out with the family she grew up in, it has since expanded to include the family she’s created, including husband Isidro and daughters Isabela, Natalia and Lilia Jane. Isidro and Maisie Jane met at True Value Hardware on Park Avenue in Chico while Maisie Jane was getting paint and supplies for her first retail location. Prophetically, their first date was to have him help her paint the store’s sign. “I wanted to test out his work ethic,” she laughs. That original sign has since moved to their expanded location and Isidro is busy farming 80 acres of almonds for Maisie Jane’s and overseeing the manufacturing facility. Maisie Jane’s mom, Mary Jane Bertagna, and aunt Bobby Henry are chief basket makers and gift box fillers. They all delight in the fact that Maisie Jane and Isidro’s daughters are growing up in their family business.

In Red Bluff, Carper’s Taste of Tehama is a much more recent endeavor. His business opened up next to the State Theatre in September 2010, transitioning him from house painter to retail entrepreneur. While taking a small business entrepreneurship class through the Tehama County Job Training Center, he looked to Maisie Jane’s for inspiration. While not directly from an agricultural background, “I’ve always hung around agricultural people,” he says. His niche is creating candies from local products, his biggest seller being chocolate-dipped dried apricots. Taste of Tehama also features an array of local food products, from Pacific Sun Olive Oil to Larson Apiary Honey to various styles of olives.

His business gained a following early on when he began firing up a grill at the lunch hours for burgers made from Tehama Angus Ranch Beef of Gerber and Great American Buffalo Company patties from Corning. “The hamburgers have gotten pretty famous here,” he says.

Shop local and eat local have become familiar rallying cries of economic development and Slow Food movements. Thankfully, these two North State businesses are making it easier – and tastier – than ever to do right by the community. • Melissa Mendonca is passionate about adding stamps to her passport and just as enthusiastic about her hometown of Red Bluff. A graduate of San Francisco State and Tulane universities, she believes in mentoring and service to create communities everyone can enjoy. Her favorite words are rebar, wanderlust and change.

wales – born drummer steve joseph teaches with passion

H

is students rarely know what to expect when they sit down for a lesson, but one thing they quickly learn—with Steve Joseph, they’re dealing with a drummer’s drummer.

“He’s unique,” admits Jesse Ajamian, a senior at Foothill High School who has been taking drum lessons from Joseph for five years. “He flows. He’s just got a great style. He really knows his craft, that’s for sure. He’s just a

great all-around player. It could be any style of music and he knows what to do.”

Jesse, who is focusing on jazz fusion drumming, pays Joseph a compliment that is music to any teacher’s ear: “Every week, I look forward to my lesson.”

Joseph’s enthusiasm for drumming began when he, too, was a boy. He grew up in the city of Swansea on the southwest shore of Wales, and by age 13, he was a continued on page 56 March 2011 Enjoy 55

The Joseph Family from left to right Dylan, Sian, Steve, Wendy

member of the Swansea Sea Cadets marching band, banging out a two-quarter march on the snare drum and picking up pointers from his uncle, who was a drummer.

However, as with most teenagers growing up in the United Kingdom in the early ’60s, Joseph fell under the spell of a certain mop-topped quartet out of Liverpool that was raising a fuss with tunes like “Love Me Do” and “I Saw Her Standing There.”

“I wanted to be a rock drummer like Ringo Starr. He had a big influence on me,” Joseph, 61, says of the former Beatle. “He was one of the most influential drummers ever. He was very significant in getting young kids to drum.”

It wasn’t just the Beatles that had Joseph setting up a drum kit in his parents’ parlor and playing along to Rolling Stones and Hollies records—or driving his teachers crazy by using his pens and pencils as drumsticks—it was the whole emerging scene. “The ’60s was the most incredible time to be living in the UK with all the new bands.

Everybody wanted to be a musician,” he says. “I wanted to leave school and be a drummer in a band.”

His parents had other ideas. “They said this isn’t a proper job, but it was what I was doing—how do they say it over here, ‘24-7’? I would play for nothing, but after a while you realize mother wasn’t going to buy you another pair of drumsticks…”

So Joseph embarked on a career as a professional musician, first as the drummer for a six-piece soul band called Lott 13 —“I’d like to have a pound for every time I played ‘Mustang Sally,’” Joseph says— and later in a band called Liquid Umbrella.

Outfitted with a Ford Transit van—the must-have mode of transportation for any serious rock ‘n’ roller—Joseph and his bandmates hit the road, often making the 250-mile drive from Swansea to gigs in London’s thriving club scene.

“We traveled all around the country like the Beatles,” Joseph recalls. “It would be cold and we’d stop for a bit of tea and a burger or something.” Joseph’s band began making inroads and getting noticed.

Early highlights included opening for Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames (whose drummer, Mitch Mitchell, went on to play with Jimi Hendrix) and more significantly, on a personal level for Joseph, the chance to play the Cavern Club in Liverpool, the small basement venue where the Beatles made their mark in the music world.

“It was a very big thing for us at the time,” says Joseph, recalling that the young musicians were more determined than starstruck when they found themselves on the same stage that spawned John, 56 Enjoy March 2011

“I’ve never had a kid take lessons from Steve and not be totally inspired.”

George, Paul and Ringo. “We were strong and hard-headed—we thought we were going to make it, too.”

The steady gigs and his obvious talents started to get Joseph noticed, and soon he was sitting in with big names like Dave Edmunds and Joan Armatrading. A big milestone was the chance to open for the Graham Bond Organization, a rock band that featured Ginger Baker on drums. (Baker went on to star in Cream and Blind Faith and is considered one of the most influential rock drummers of the 1960s.)

“That really changed my life. He was a massive influence on me, and I got in a few lessons from him as well,” Joseph says. Later in his career, Joseph signed with Charisma Records as a composer and session musician and worked with members of Genesis and Monty Python’s Flying Circus.

Joseph and his wife, Wendy, moved to the United States in 1984 and settled in Redding 10 years ago. He still mixes gigs into his teaching schedule, but it’s his role as an instructor that has students singing his praises these days.

“His stories are amazing,” says Scott Davis, a drummer who played with The Myriad and recently toured with the Christian rock band Project 86. Davis says Joseph uses a unique, free-flowing style of teaching. “He’s just an incredible guy. He’s very generous, just great people.”

Foothill High band teacher Mitch Bahr says Joseph is a rare combination of performer and instructor. “He’s a consummate professional and one of the most polite individuals I’ve ever been around. There are a lot of musicians you come across in life that are really talented but kind of abrasive and not really willing to pay it forward. Steve is a double threat. He’s an excellent drummer and an excellent teacher.

“I’ve never had a kid take lessons from Steve and not be totally inspired,” Bahr says. • www.welshdrummer.com (530) 223-3943

sixteen –year – old double bass player katie wallace

ong and lithe, athletic and energetic, with an engaging, outgoing charm, Katie Wallace might seem best suited for basketball or volleyball courts at a local high school. But when she had to make a choice, it was music that won her devotion. She is equally suited for the instrument that is so much a part of who she is becoming – a recognized budding talent with world-class tutelage from none other than internationally acclaimed bassist Barry Green.

Sixteen-year-old Katie plays the double bass, the largest stringed instrument found in any symphony orchestra. Her instrument sings the deep, soulful notes that give body to a piece of music such as “Shenandoah,” one of several compositions she is learning before leaving with Green and eight of his other students for a 10-day trip to China at the end of this month.

Katie’s body language expresses her passion for each musical composition, one of the reasons she continues to walk through the doors of opportunity opening before her as a young musician.

A member of Shasta College’s Symphony Orchestra and the principal bass in the Shasta Youth Symphony Orchestra, Katie experienced a hallmark year in 2009. She attended the International Society of Bassists Convention in Pennsylvania at the urging of her mother, Kathy Scheer. Later in the year, she participated in the Golden Gate Bass Camp in Oakland where she was tapped by Green to receive private instruction, a surprising gift that has now opened doors for her future, with several music conservatories showing interest in her talent.

Shasta Secondary Home School has thrown its wholehearted supported behind Katie’s efforts, she says. The freedom to earn some of her high school college credits concurrently and

“ Music and rhythm find their way into the secret places of the soul.” ~ Plato through enrollment in Shasta College classes also allows her to set a schedule that works with her practice and travel schedule. She takes most of her lessons from Green through Skype contact, but meets with him in person at his studio in Oakland when his schedule allows. She has also taken jazz lessons from Greg D’Augelli, an instructor at Chico State University.

Katie credits her early music instruction at Manzanita Elementary, Sequoia Middle and Shasta High schools with giving her a first taste of the joy she feels in playing music. She began with the violin, but the opportunity to try out the bass in middle school cinched it for her. She loves music, playing with a group or playing solos. She says she often loses herself in the music. Katie has earned awards for both her solo and orchestra performances in school competitions. When Sequoia Middle School Orchestra and Chamber Orchestra attended the San Francisco Heritage Music Festival, Katie received one of three Maestro Awards for overall best player. It was the inspiration she needed to continue playing in high school.

During a practice while attending Shasta High, the neck of Katie’s instrument broke completely off. With a concert just days away, Katie and her mother traveled to Eureka, where Robert Daugherty of Daugherty Repair and Restoration customized his repair of her bass so the strings were better spaced and set closer to the neck to suit her hand size. He made it better than before, she says, just in time for the California Association for Music Education state competition, where she took gold with a command performance. Katie’s mom says, “Good things happen to Katie” – not a surprise to those who know her well.

Katie leaves March 31 for China. Green’s group will play with China’s Youth Symphony and various conservatories at the Beijing Philharmonic Concert Hall, as well as other locations. She has been raising money for the trip since late 2010, but still needs a bit of help.

The 10-day trip will cost between $4,500 and $5,000. Information about how to contribute to her trip is available by calling (530) 3655125 or e-mailing mail@chameleonphotographix.com. •

Back Pain Relief–The story of my recovery After a horrible low back injury I spent three months in bed using pain killers, muscle relaxants, and even pain shots. Although physical therapy, acupuncture, and medications helped, I found that I was still far from pain free and functional.

At Adamsons, Carl designed a program specific to my medical needs. He patiently worked one-on-one with me each session for several weeks; teaching me what I was supposed to do, demonstrating how to do it, and making sure that I correctly performed each movement.

I now feel that I’m REALLY on the road to recovery! Painful flair-ups are less frequent, and recoveries are much quicker!

Medical exercise training has absolutely been the most beneficial treatment that I’ve had!

Becky Quigley

Exercise is vital to regaining your health, strength, energy, independence, and mental clarity! You WILL feel vibrant and productive again! You WILL reduce your pain and dependence on medications!

happy days comes to redding Poodle skirts and hula hoops, malt shops and sock hops will come to life during “Happy Days,” a high-energy musical presented

by WE Multimedia that opens on St. Patrick’s Day. Produced and directed by North State theater veteran Wade Riggs, the family-friendly show was written by Garry Marshall, who wrote the “Happy Days” television series. Audience members will step back in time to 1959 to hang out with Arthur “The Fonz” Fonzarelli (played by Ben Day), Richie Cunningham (Marshall Jones III) and the gang.

“It’s got all the characters that we grew up with,” Riggs says.

In the musical, the famed Arnold’s drive-in malt shop is in danger of demolition and can only be saved with a dance contest and wrestling match.

The cast includes familiar faces from numerous local performing arts groups, including The Dance Project, Redding City Musical Theater and Riverfront Playhouse. “We’ve pulled some unbelievable talent,” Riggs says. “When Savannah Harter walked on stage, she had that cocky swagger that I was looking for in Pinky Tuscadero. Bryan Storm (Howard Cunningham) is a phenomenal singer, and we have a couple of girls who sang with the opera – these classically trained singers are bringin’ it. These kids open their mouths and sing and I’m just floored.”

Riggs’ behind-the-scenes artistic dream team includes executive producer Lisa Collins, musical directors Bill Collins and Bill Ruess, choreographer Kristi Webber and vocal director Rebekah Pearson.

The show was fully orchestrated by North State musicians. “Bill Ruess spent hundreds of hours poring over sheet music, focusing on 64 Enjoy March 2011

every detail,” Riggs says.

WE Multimedia presented “M*A*S*H” late last year, and just wrapped up the two-person drama “The Last Five Years,” a more intimate dinner theater production staged at Leatherby’s Family Creamery. “These huge event-style shows like ‘Happy Days’ and ‘M*A*S*H’ help us do the smaller-venue, more artistic shows,” Riggs says.

The Happy Days cast will perform during the Shasta Family Justice Center’s sock hop on March 12, and Kool April Nites will bring a show-and-shine to the theater during the Happy Days run. Other local theater groups have been invited to set up booths in the lobby during the “Happy Days” run as a means of promoting the arts – a cause about which Riggs is palpably passionate.

“My goal was to bring elements of all our local theater groups together to produce these shows, and it’s happened beyond my wildest dreams,” Riggs says. • Happy Days: The Musical 7 pm March 17-19 and March 25-26; 2 pm March 20 McLaughlin Auditorium at Sequoia Middle School, 805 Sequoia St., Redding Tickets $15; available at www.wemultimedia.com Proceeds benefit the Shasta County Arts Council

What’s Cookin’

By: Lana Granfors

Bold Blue Cheese Blue cheeses tend to be sharp and a bit salty and are often considered an acquired taste. They’re typically appreciated at room temperature either alone or served with fruit, crackers and wine. A Blue Cheese Dip my best friend, Anne, makes is a signature dish that everyone looks forward to digging into, and while perfect as a dip, it’s also a great topping over a juicy steak or a hot baked potato. A spread was found during a trip to the Wine Country several years ago. Created by the chef at the Domaine Chandon Winery, it is best served with sliced apples and toasted sourdough bread while sipping their sparkling wine. Lastly, the two salads and blue cheese dressings always receive rave reviews at our house.

Chandon’s Blue Cheese Spread 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature ½ cup (2 oz.) crumbled blue cheese, room temperature 1-3 T toasted walnuts or pecans, coarsely chopped 1 T chives, chopped 1 T parsley, chopped Sourdough or French bread In a medium-sized bowl, mix together cream cheese, blue cheese, walnuts, chives and parsley, being careful not to over mix. Allow to sit for a few minutes, then serve with toasted thin-sliced sourdough or French bread.

Romaine Ribbons with Roasted Garlic & Blue Cheese Dressing 1 head roasted garlic (about 2 oz)* 2 T rice vinegar 2 T apple cider vinegar 2-3 tsp. honey 1 tsp. Dijon mustard ¼ tsp. freshly ground pepper 5 T olive oil PREPARE dressing ▶ To roast garlic, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice off top of garlic head to expose the tips of the cloves.

Place it, root side down, in a small ovenproof dish.

Drizzle 1 T olive oil over exposed head. A teaspoon of water can be added, and a dash of salt. Cover tightly with foil. Bake until tender and golden, about 1 hour. Remove from oven. ▶ Reserve oil from roasted garlic. Squeeze soft, golden cloves out of their skins and transfer to a processor. Add rice vinegar, apple cider vinegar, honey, mustard and pepper; blend until smooth.

Add olive oil and reserved garlic oil and blend until combined.

Chandon’s Blue Cheese Spread Prep time: 30 min.

Romaine Ribbons Dressing Prep time: 25 min.; Roast time: 1 hour; Salad Prep time 15 min.

PREPARE salad 1 large head romaine lettuce, leaves rinsed and patted dry ¼ cup coarsely chopped toasted walnuts or pecans ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese ▶ Stack 6 to 8 romaine leaves at a time and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide ribbons. Place ribbons into a large salad bowl, drizzle with half dressing and toss. Taste, adding additional dressing as desired. ▶ To serve four: Divide salad among four individual salad plates. Garnish each with a drizzle of dressing, 1 T walnuts and 1 T of blue cheese crumbles. 

Blue Cheese Wedge Salad dressing ingredients ¾ cup blue cheese, crumbled ¾ cup buttermilk 3 T sour cream ¾ cup mayonnaise 2 tsp. white wine vinegar ¼ tsp. sugar ½ tsp. garlic powder ½ tsp. onion powder ½ tsp. black pepper PREPARE dressing In a small bowl, mash blue cheese and buttermilk together with a fork until mixture resembles large curd cottage cheese. Stir in sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, garlic and onion powder until well blended. Season with pepper. Allow to sit for 30 minutes or more for flavors to meld. (Whole milk may be used in place of buttermilk for a milder flavor.) Dressing may be refrigerated in airtight container for up to two weeks.

Salad ingredients 1 head iceberg lettuce, cut into 4 wedges 2 cups grape tomatoes, cut into halves 1 cup red onion, chopped 12 slices cooked bacon, crumbled ½ cup blue cheese crumbles 1 cup pecan pieces, toasted PREPARE salad To serve four: Place lettuce wedge on a salad plate.

Anne’s Blue Cheese Dip 2 cups (8 oz.) crumbled blue cheese ¼ cup chopped red onion ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley ¹⁄³ cup olive oil 3 T red wine vinegar 2 cloves garlic, minced ½ tsp. black pepper Mix all together and serve with celery sticks, crackers and toasted bread slices.

name Georgia McNeil

occupation CORK ARTIST

WHAT’S IN STORE G eorgia M c N eil , W ine C ork A rt & A ccessories For some, a cork is simply an obstacle that stands between wine and a wineglass.

For Georgia McNeil, however, a cork is a miniature work of art, embellished with graphics and lettering that makes it unique and beautiful. Wine Cork Art & Accessories is a green business in which McNeil “upcycles” corks into beautiful, enjoyable and sometimes quirky art. She sells her wares on eBay and at wine festivals, and you’ll find some of her creations – including a shadow box that was her very first piece – at Enjoy the Store.

Tell us about your yourself and your business. I started in Texas about five years ago, and moved back to Redding about a year and a half ago. I run my business from home – I call it an office when it’s tidy and a studio when it’s messy.

How did you get into this, and how did it evolve into a career? I made a trip to North Carolina about five years ago, and a friend had a bulletin board made of corks. I was just fascinated by it. When I returned home, I started to think about what I was going to do with my wine corks. I made a shadow box for myself, and that started it all. I soon realized that I could not drink that much wine.

There are suppliers who put their used wine corks up for sale, and some wineries give me bags of corks. It helps me keep my prices down.

What is a “quality” wine cork? II use all real corks – I don’t use plastic corks at all.

I don’t consider “two-buck chuck” wine corks to be quality – but I might mix them in with other corks. There are few, if any, duplicate corks in anything 82 Enjoy March 2011

and n i e m Co day. o t p o h s VE. O L .

that I do. A large wreath takes 300 or more corks, and those are all different. I’ve used hundreds of thousands of corks.

Have you had a favorite cork? There are a lot that I get excited about when I see them. When one of my suppliers gives me a new batch, I get excited to go through them and see if there’s one I’ve never seen. And there are still corks that pop up that are brand new to me.

What’s your favorite product from your collection? The wreaths are very close to my heart.

They’re free form, and no two are alike. It takes me eight to 10 hours to make a large wreath (including sorting the corks).

Do you take special orders? Because I know that people love their own wine cork collections, and because I know they don’t always get around to making them into something, I’ll take their cork collection and put it into whatever product they want. I do quite a bit of those, and people are always very pleased with them.

What types of products will we find at Enjoy the Store? You’ll see bulletin boards, boxes, trivets, coasters, cork-lined trays, a Lazy Susan and wreaths.

There’s a brand-new wreath that I just created at the end of January in a heart shape. And I’m working on some three-dimensional pieces.

What is your philosophy? I just like to make people smile. They look at my work and it makes them happy, and that makes me happy. • Search for "Wine Cork Art and Accessories" on Facebook

cut above the rest mount shasta ' s keith and patricia cool Atop the meat counter at the Mount Shasta Super Market sits a flowering plant accompanied by a card that reads, “Thank you for continuing to be an anchor in our community.” It is signed, “From those of us in Mount Shasta taking notice.”

This sentiment is echoed by the scores of Siskiyou County residents who consider Keith and Patricia Cool to be pillars of their community. From coaching sports teams to donating to just about every cause that comes their way, the Cools say they’re just repaying the community that has given so much to them.

“It’s really important to give back. We’re part of the community – they’re the reason we survive and grow,” Cool says.

A stroll through the old-fashioned neighborhood grocery store is a step back in history – the guy at the meat counter (Cool’s brother, Bob) knows regular customers’ names and orders, and the owner of the store greets folks with a handshake or a hug. They feature a sizeable selection of locally produced products, and their popular catering and barbecue business has supported countless local fundraisers. And the community has taken notice, say Russ and Nancy Porterfield, who operate a State Farm office in Mount Shasta and have known Cool for 20 years.

“Keith and his family are very much appreciated by the many folks that know him in this community,” says Nancy Porterfield. “Over the years, we have seen Keith volunteering many hours to causes that improve our community. We are happy to know him and be one of his neighbors.”

Cool – a Siskiyou County native and Dunsmuir High School grad – has served on the Mount Shasta Chamber of Commerce board and the Siskiyou County Community Services Council for years. He coaches junior varsity basketball, and has coached baseball and soccer in years past. His wife of 18 years is a Girl Scout troop leader, a soccer coach and the keeper of the score book for basketball games.

The Cools sponsor three skiers on the high school ski team every year, and help with an array of sports programs. Until this past year, they ran the concession stand at home football games. When there’s a 86 Enjoy March 2011

Mount Shasta Education Foundation fund-raising event, you can bank on the Cools being there. “If someone asks us to help, we try to help,” he says.

Once a year, the Cools take their industrial-sized barbecue on the road and prepare lunch for each of their community’s schools “as our way of thanking them for all they do for our kids,” Cool says. In addition to Cool’s grown son (the father of his only grandchild), the Cools have three children still attending Siskiyou County schools.

Their extended family includes about 16 employees, most of whom are high school or college students gathering up job experience.

“It seems as though we get the cream of the crop from the high school,” Cool says. “We have a lot of (straight-A) students who are responsible and dependable, and their parents are terrific people.”

Not only does Cool employ teenagers, but he still mixes it up with them on the basketball court – and one of his most life-changing moments occurred in the high school gym. “I died of a heart attack a few years ago,” Cool says matter-of-factly, explaining that he suffered a heart attack and collapsed on the while playing basketball with his team. His fellow coaches revived him, and he was life-flighted to Mercy Medical Center in Redding, where he recovered against all odds.

Although he heeded his body’s warning to take it down a notch, he has no plans to retire anytime soon. Mount Shasta Super Market has been honored as the area’s Business of the Year, and Cool himself was named Citizen of the Year several years ago. But the spotlight’s not for him, he says – he’s simply doing what makes him happy.

“I’ve been doing what I do for 40 years, and I’m still here by choice,” Cool says. “I love waiting on my customers and visiting with them – they’re also my friends. I love to cut meat, I love to cook. I just still love all of it. I’m doing what I like to do. We don’t do much compared to what we get out of this - nice things happen to us all the time.” • Kerri Regan grew up in the North State and earned her bachelor’s degree in journalism from San Francisco State University. A freelance writer and editor, Kerri enjoys exploring the North State with her husband and three young children.
