Man gets 25 years to life in fatal firewood attack Tahoe Daily Tribune SOUTH LAKE TAHOE — A South Lake Tahoe man who beat his female roommate to death with a piece of firewood in 2019 will spend at least the next quartercentury behind bars. James Cleveland James Cleveland was handed a sentence of 25 years to life for first degree murder March 19 by El Dorado County Superior Court Presiding Judge Suzanne Kingsbury. He also received an additional year for a weapons enhancement charge. On Jan. 13, 2019, South Lake Tahoe Police officers responded to a report of an assault with a deadly weapon in the 1100 block of Carson Avenue at about 2:45 p.m. Initial reports said a man was hitting a female with a large object, according to police at the time. When officers arrived they found Valorie Turley, 65, in front of her residence in the driveway with significant head injuries, the Tahoe Tribune previously reported. Turley was transported to the emergency room at Barton Memorial Hospital and then flown via Calstar to Renown Medical Center in Reno where she was pronounced dead. The El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office stated that during the trial multiple witnesses testified they heard Turley screaming for help. When those witnesses responded to help her they saw Cleveland brutally and repeatedly beating Turley over the head with a fireplace log. Cleveland, 71 years of age at the time of the incident, testified and admitted that Turley had said something to upset him and he “snapped” and “lost control.” Cleveland was found guilty Jan. 26. The case was investigated by the South Lake Tahoe Police Department and prosecuted by deputy district attorney Casey Mandrell.

Supes divvy up more than $2 million in TOT funds Dawn Hodson Staff writer After a lengthy debate and some horse-trading the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors agreed on how to spend a portion of anticipated transient occupancy tax funding for the 2021-22 fiscal year. A 10% transient occupancy tax is collected by the county when visitors stay for 30 days or less in any lodging facility, except campsites. The tax was established in 2004 and the revenue can be used for anything but mainly has been put toward tourism and economic development. The county’s recent practice has been to direct 10% of transient occupancy tax revenue to the

Treasurer-Tax Collector’s Office budget to cover costs associated with administering the vacation home rentals program and collecting the tax, 5% of prior year transient occupancy tax revenue to fund El Dorado County Veterans Commission grants and activities, at least 51% of transient occupancy tax revenue goes to the county’s economic development budget and the remaining amount to the General Fund to offset other general, ongoing obligations. In the 2021-22 fiscal year county staff is projecting some $5 million in transient occupancy tax revenue, although staff said the amount could be higher. Last year revenue was projected to be $897,776 on the West Slope and

$1.94 million in the Tahoe Basin. An additional source of revenue was $2.46 million from Airbnb. Of the $5 million assumed to come in as revenue in 2021-22, the Treasurer-Tax Collector’s Office will receive $373,500 and the El Dorado County sheriff ’s search and rescue operations $265,000; $1,242,900 will go for economic development activities, including broadband; $63,252 to the Greater Sacramento Economic Council; $280,700 for the Veterans Commission; and $620,940 for the Wagon Train, local chambers of commerce and Tahoe Prosperity Center. That left $2.15 million remaining to be allocated. Requests for funding from the transient occupancy tax pot exceeded

the amount available with requests totaling $4.5 million, including one to fund a fire boat for the El Dorado Hills Fire Department, for snow removal equipment and road maintenance, to reimburse Lake Valley Fire Protection District for search and rescue service calls, code enforcement and other needs. Supervisor Lori Parlin argued to add to the mix $5,800 for rescue equipment for the Georgetown Fire Department and to use leftover money to fund creating design standards or community plans for some of the county’s rural centers. “We need to stop kicking the can down the road and get it done, especially in the rural

Betty Jo Davidson

Betty Jo Davidson (Schumann), loving wife of late Dave Davidson, peacefully passed away Feb. 19 at 91 years old. She was a longtime resident of Concord, Calif., where she raised her family while working for the Mt. Diablo Unified School District. Upon retirement, she moved with her husband Dave to El Dorado County and was an active member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Ladies Auxiliary. Betty Jo enjoyed square dancing, cooking and spending time with her loved ones. She was well loved by her entire family and will be dearly missed. She is survived by her four children; Mike Schumann, Sue Martin, Dan Schumann (Jeannie) and Tim Schumann (Janine); three stepdaughters Susan Rymer, Diane Cunningham, Wendy Wallace as well as 15 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.

Harry Hooper Jr.

April 4, 1928 - March 17, 2021

Harry Hooper Jr. was born April 4, 1928 in Los Angeles, Calif. He passed from this life March 17 at home in Cameron Park, Calif. Harry was the third child born to Harry Hooper Sr. and Dorothy (Shimer) Hooper. His parents and his brother, Cassius Hooper, preceded him in death. He is survived by his sister Marylee (Hooper) Gilliam and sister-in-law Thelma Hooper. Shortly after returning from overseas service with the United States Navy, Harry married the love of his life, M. Eloise (Toney) Hooper. In 2013 Eloise passed away after 62 years of marriage. Harry and Eloise were blessed with two children, Daniel Paul Hooper (wife M. Lynne Hooper) and Judi Lynn (Hooper) Meadows (husband David Meadows). Harry and Eloise have three grandsons, Paul Hooper, Scott Hooper and Michael Meadows; three greatgrandsons, Miles Hooper, Finneon Hooper, Logan Meadows and “adopted” grandson Jason Corrie. Harry also leaves behind several nieces and nephews. Harry lived to serve. He loved Jesus and wanted everyone to experience the same relationship he had with Him. If there was a place to serve at church, he was there. He was a founding member of Foothills Church and especially enjoyed his role as greeter at the sanctuary door every Sunday. When Harry decided to go to Barber College he found the perfect combination of autonomy, providing a good living for his family and opportunities to share the Gospel. His decision to attend Barber College at night while working full time at Gladding McBean & Company was very impactful for him. His family members have all been the happy recipients of Franciscan Ware from his time there. Harry “retired” from barbering several times; with his final retirement coming three months prior to his death. Harry enjoyed backpacking, fishing, traveling with Eloise and running. In his ‘80s when he couldn’t run anymore, he still walked at least two miles every day. When someone would ask Harry how he was doing he would always reply, “Fantastic!” even if he was having a less than fantastic day. Harry loved ice cream, Turner classic movies, Bible study and prayer groups, as well as visiting with his senior luncheon and barbering friends. He will be missed by his friends and family until that great reunion in Heaven, where he will undoubtedly greet us with, “Welcome!!” A Celebration of Life and Memorial Service will be held at Foothills Church, 2380 Merrychase Drive, Cameron Park, Saturday, April 10, at 1:30 p.m. There will be light refreshments and a time of fellowship at the church following the service. A private graveside committal service was held Friday, March 26 at Green Valley Cemetery.

USDA Forest Service The seasonal closure of dirt roads in the Eldorado National Forest was lifted Thursday. Forest officials warn, however, damage to the land could still occur using dirt roads in wet areas and visitors will be responsible for damage caused by inappropriate use. Due to melting snow wet areas will be present in the forest for some time, especially at higher elevations. Many routes change in elevation over several miles. Visitors are encouraged to be aware of changes in the conditions of the roads they are using and to adjust travel plans if they reach a wet section. The seasonal closure is designed to protect roadbeds and watersheds from damage and to protect water quality. A minimum three-month closure period from Jan. 1 through March 31 was designated for the core part of the wet season in the Eldorado National Forest Travel Management Plan. This plan also allows the seasonal dirt road closure to start earlier or be extended based on actual conditions in a given year. The seasonal closure does not affect routes in the Rock Creek Area near Georgetown, which has its own wet weather route closure process. The Rock Creek off-highway vehicle area has three different seasonal closures:

TOT funds

Rock Creek trails are temporarily closed due to wet weather when 1.5 inches or more of precipitation is measured. The trails will open after a 48-hour period of drying weather. The eastern portion of the Rock Creek system is closed when 2 inches of snow is measured until the snow has completely melted from the Bald Mountain Staging area. From Nov. 10 to May 1 the southern portion of the trail system is closed for wildlife needs.

Other road conditions as of March 30 • Wentworth Springs Road is covered in snow between Uncle Tom’s Cabin and Ice House Road. • Ice House Road is covered in snow north of the Loon Lake turnoff. • Mormon Emigrant Trail/Iron Mountain Road has snow and ice and ice that gets thick beginning at Pilliken Road when travelling toward Highway 88 from Sly Park Road.

What Causes It?

Healthy Nerve Healthy Blood Vessels

Peripheral neuropathy is a result of damage to the nerves often causing weakness, pain, numbness, tingling, and may also lead to serious balance problems. Diseased Blood Vessels This damage is commonly caused by a lack of blood flow to the nerves in the hands and feet. If not properly treated this lack of blood flow may Nerves Shrivel when cause the nerves to degenerate. Blood Vessels Weak and Disappear As you can see in Figure 1, as the blood vessels surrounding the nerves become diseased they shrink and shrivel. This process hastens the flow of vital Figure 1 nutrients to the nerves required to remain healthy. When these nerves begin to “die” it could lead to balance problems, pain, numbness, tingling and burning symptoms in the hands and feet.

In order to effectively treat your neuropathy 3 factors must be determined.

Dirt roads open but damage still possible

What is the underlying cause?

How much nerve damage has been sustained?

How much treatment will your condition require?

Drug Free Treatment Method

Placerville, CA – Currently the most common method most doctor’s recommend to treat neuropathy is with the use of prescription drugs. Although these drugs may temporarily reduce your symptoms they may cause a feeling of discomfort and in some cases lead to a variety of terrible unwanted side effects. We have a different method!

Our advanced treatment method has 3 main goals

Increase Blow flow

Stimulate small fiber nerves

Decrease brain based pain

The treatment to increase blood flow utilizes a specialized low-level light therapy (not to be confused with laser therapy) using light emitting diode technology. This technology was originally developed by NASA to assist in increasing blow flow. The low level light therapy is like watering a tree. The light therapy will allow the blood vessels to grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. It’s like adding water to a tree and seeing the roots grow deeper and deeper. The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation. “My feet hurt so bad after sitting I could barely take the first few steps. I have had 11 treatments and no longer feel sharp or shooting pains and most of the tingling is gone. I now have full balance and can walk without pain. As Dr. Mooney explained the treatment is not painful, nothing uncomfortable, and is actually very relaxing.” – Neuropathy Pain Patient John Mooney, DC at Premier Healthcare will do a neuropathy severity examination to determine the extent of the nerve damage for only $47.

centers,” insisted Parlin. Parlin suggested hiring a person to work on such plans exclusively over a two-year period to ensure something gets done. Supervisor John Hidahl noted that El Dorado Hills also was interested in a community plan being prepared rather than just design standards. The discussion turned to whether El Dorado County Planning Services could accomplish what was being requested. Tiffany Schmid, the county’s director of planning, questioned the scope of what the board was advocating, saying the county has 29 rural centers and it already has a long list of statemandated projects that need to be completed. In particular, she questioned if two years of funding was sufficient as she didn’t know how long it would take to complete what the board was suggesting. In response Parlin suggested leaving it up to Schmid to decide the best approach to take in getting the pilot studies completed, saying that doing so would save a lot of grief on the part of different rural communities as well as developers. In the end supervisors agreed to spend the leftover transient occupancy tax funds to be included in the 202122 budget as follows: $1.3 million for road maintenance, $500,000 for snow removal equipment, $142,500 for an additional code enforcement officer and vehicle, $85,500 to hire an additional senior development

technician, $68,000 for El Dorado Hills Fire Department 2020 search and rescue impacts, $5,800 for Georgetown Fire Department rescue equipment, $222,000 for Lake Valley Fire to handle visitor calls for service and $350,000 to Lake Valley Fire for a quick attack fire apparatus. Any revenue in excess of $5 million will allow designated transient occupancy tax reserves to be used to fund up to $350,000 for staffing in order to prepare a certain number of community plans for rural centers in the county. In addition, staff was directed to negotiate funding agreements with the fire districts in order for them to receive funding. The board also extended a funding agreement with the Food Bank of El Dorado County an additional five months through Sept. 1. In other matters supervisors authorized the Chief Administrative Officer to enter into negotiations with the owner of the Best Western Stagecoach Inn on Pony Express Trail in Pollock Pines to purchase the property as a center for homeless services using homelessness grant funds. In closed session the board discussed the purchase price and terms of payment of acquiring the Best Western Stagecoach Inn as well as Hangtown Motel on Broadway in Placerville as centers for homelessness services. No action was reported out of the session by CAO Don Ashton.

roposition 19, The Home Protection for Seniors, Severely Disabled, Families and Victims of Wildfire or Natural Disasters Act, was passed by voters last November, enacting significant changes to California’s property TED GAINES tax law. One provision of the measure — that concerning “parent-child” and “grandparentgrandchild” exclusions — triggered a massive property tax increase that took effect Feb. 16. Unfortunately for homeowners, the statute in its current state is a confusing mess. As a State Board of Equalization member and dedicated taxpayer advocate I continue to work closely with state legislators and county assessors to provide clarity and answer as many questions as possible for taxpayers affected by these provisions. While Proposition 19 has some serious shortcomings — increasing taxes on tens of thousands of California families and making it more difficult and expensive to pass on property and family farms to children and grandchildren — it does offer noteworthy tax benefits to homeowners who are nearing retirement, severely disabled or victims of natural disasters. As of April 1, qualified homeowners can now transfer their low Proposition 13 tax base-year value to a replacement I support the home of any value in any of California’s 58 base-year transfer counties. Homeowners provisions of who want to downsize, move closer to family or Proposition 19 relocate for any other because they allow reason can blend the taxable value of their more homeowners old house with the purchase price of a new, to take advantage possibly more expensive of Proposition 13 home and reduce the protections ... property tax burden they would otherwise face. When voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition 13 in 1978, it was to rein in property tax rates that had spiraled out of control as county governments routinely raised property taxes, in many cases forcing families from their homes. The landmark ballot initiative placed restrictions on how much a homeowner’s taxable value could increase every year, even if a home’s market value grew substantially. California voters later passed Propositions 60, 90 and 110, which extended Proposition 13 protections to homeowners 55 or older and people with severe disabilities by giving them a one-time opportunity to retain their Proposition 13 tax base if they moved to a home of equal or lesser value within the same county or to one of the 10 counties with an intercounty agreement. Proposition 19 further expands Proposition 13 benefits by allowing eligible homeowners to transfer their base-year value up to three times. It also gives property owners whose homes were damaged or destroyed by a wildfire or other natural ■

Letters to the Editor Bridge debacle EDITOR: would like to applaud the El Dorado County supervisors and Department of Transportation, past and present, on the totally misplaced spending of $80 million taxpayer dollars on their illustrious Mosquito Bridge project. I have attended bridge meetings on and off for the last 30 years and never once to my memory was it disclosed that the road and bridge would be open to all-sized vehicle traffic. County government has doggedly and stubbornly pushed through a project that will haunt them for years to come from the standpoints of public safety, disaster access and county economics. Congratulations, the next time you deposit your paychecks perhaps you should pause to reread your mission statements and oaths of office. RON SPEAKE Mosquito

The reality of attacks on Asian Americans EDITOR: ecent tragic shootings in Atlanta have brought to the forefront hate crimes against Asian Americans. While the book is still out whether this particular attack was racially motivated it is undeniable the increase of attacks across America toward Asian Americans. The media has per usual blame former President Trump. How much truth is there to their claims? Absolutely none. VOA reported an increase of 150% in major U.S. cities, looking at 122 attacks in 16 of our country’s most populous cities: New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Seattle, San Jose, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Dallas, Washington, D.C, Phoenix, Houston, Denver, Chicago, San Diego and Cincinnati. The mayors in every one of these cities are Democrat. Each of these cities hold a Democrat voter majority, seven of which rank with the highest number of Democrat registered voters: Boston (1st), San Francisco (5th), San Jose (7th), Philadelphia (8th), Chicago (9th), Los Angeles (10th) and New York (11th). Of the 10 states where these cities reside, only Texas has two Republican senators. Ohio and Pennsylvania senators are split: one Republican and one Democrat. The rest have two Democrat senators. What does all this translate to? Attacks are occurring in major cities or their surrounding urban

areas that hold a Democrat voter majority and thus statistically there is a high probability that those individuals committing these crimes against Asian Americans did not vote for Trump. So why are these “Democrats” attacking Asians if they didn’t support, like or even listen to a Trump rally or speech and hear him say China virus? These attacks are happening because the media — the Trump- hating, liberal democratic media — has been telling everyone he’s a racist and hates Asians. They are the ones our Asian communities need to condemn and hold accountable. Only then can we stop hate against Asian Americans. If one sees everything via racism, you’re not woke or progressive; news flash: you are the racist. From an ethnic Asian American minority. RYAN FORD Placerville

Keep our name

EDITOR: often see articles written about the name Hangtown and wanting to drop the name and the rope. I agree it is our history. It is so silly just changing the name won't make things different. Why do they want to remove statues and smooth over the facts? Things happened. That's how we learn and change. I am not good at expressing myself but I want to try to help keep Hangtown the wonderful area it has always been. I'm almost 84 and I moved here in 1960. I raised three children here. We all love Hangtown and its history. Please don't change it. NORMA ANDREWS Placerville

Where will it end? EDITOR: ne has to wonder where the left's headlong race into culture canceling insanity will end. A recent victim of their wrath is Dr. Seuss, whose books are being pulled from shelves as we speak. What's next, canceling Hansel and Gretel because leaving a trail of breadcrumbs is wasting food and therefore environmentally unsound? In the '60s some on the left found LSD to be a gateway to the world of wacky. Now it seems they have found a way to reach the pinnacle of lunacy without the aid of drugs. GEORGE ALGER Placerville

Line warming 101; what I learned so far

ntil a couple of days ago, if you’re like me, you never saw or heard the term “line warming.” I read it while doing a little research on the new Georgia laws governing election policies and procedures. The popular CHRIS information can be a tad incomplete at best and pretty misleading at worst. The best known and most controversial element provides misdemeanor charges for anyone giving food or water to citizens waiting in line to vote. Thus line warming means giving aide and succor to help potential voters withstand the rigors of standing in line to vote, often for hours on end, in any and all kinds of weather. Inhumane, barbaric, medieval and unconscionable were my first several

thoughts when I heard about that part of the new law. They remain stout thoughts with the very slightest caveat after learning a bit more about the issue. First, of course, I spent some otherwise “Covid-chill-time” finding a dozen or more glaring holes in the DALEY anti-line warming laws. Suppose a senior citizen (not unlike myself ) fainted after waiting in line under a brutally hot Georgia sun on a day with 106% humidity. Would you be indicted for sharing your water bottle with him or her? If you helped the victim to move into the shade of a large, sprawling oak tree just off the sidewalk, could you be charged with election tampering or unlawful electioneering? Could the would-be voter be excluded from voting that day for “abandoning” his or her place in line

and disrupting the standing-in-line protocol? If you shared a handful of your almond/raisin trail mix with the person ahead of or behind you in the voting line, would that constitute an act of “misdemeanor line warming” or would it only apply to someone not in the voting line? If the person a place or two ahead of you suddenly tripped on some uneven concrete and sprawled across the sidewalk, would you be expected under the new law to step over him/ her or step off the line, walk around the victim and continue to wait your turn to vote? Would rendering first aid be a form of line warming? I think a case could be made for it — maybe not in California or Massachusetts — but in Georgia? I wouldn’t bet against it. We volunteered to be observers last November at El Dorado County Building C the week before the general election. We learned about electioneering, that it could not be done closer than 100 feet from a

polling place, and if we observed any such thing we were required to alert the election supervisor onsite immediately. Electioneering could be anything from intimidation or bribery to carrying a partisan sign or banner promoting or denigrating a particular candidate. We weren’t told about variations of line warming before our two-hour shift. Likewise, we never heard the term at the time. A couple of trucks cruised the parking lot displaying huge Trump banners, but none came within 100 feet of the voting booths. Reading a little deeper into the law, it becomes more clear that the antiline warming issue is rather more targeted than is typically reported in the media. Example: If you were handing out hundreds of water bottles with a picture of Gov. Kemp smiling and looking for all the world like

disaster the ability to transfer their Proposition 13 base-year value to a new home. These provisions of Proposition 19 that took effect April 1 give homeowners two years to transfer their base-year value to a replacement residence in any county. I support the base-year transfer provisions of Proposition 19 because they allow more homeowners to take advantage of Proposition 13 protections that continue to be widely supported by California voters. While some of Proposition 19’s provisions hurt California taxpayers at a time when they need economic security the most, it’s always nice to have a silver lining.

Visit my website at boe.ca.gov/gaines for more information on Proposition 19. I encourage all homeowners to check with their county assessor for specific county regulations, policies and any paperwork associated with base-year transfers. Sen.

During the Sprint Car Challenge Tour opener in 2019 Lincoln’s Tanner Carrick jumped out to a large lead only to have things end after going over the edge of the track in turn one. Fast forward two years and the 19-year-old found a little salvation Saturday night, claiming the $3,000 top prize at Placerville Speedway’s Spring Fever Frenzy. It marked Carrick’s second career victory at the quarter-mile after earning his first this past September. “We always love coming to Placerville Speedway and to get a win with the Sprint Car Challenge Tour in front of these fans is pretty special,” Carrick said. “It took a lot of patience to run that

feature. It seemed like every time we would get in a groove there would be a yellow or red. I just focused on hitting my marks, especially in those closing laps and luckily we ended up here on the front stretch.” In the opening stages of the main event it was Carrick and Roseville’s Sean Becker running closely together up front before the first red flag waved on lap eight for Chico’s Michael Ing. The 35-lapper was plagued by slowdowns that didn’t allow drivers much time in lapped traffic. Early on two-time Forni Classic winner Justyn Cox was a show in himself running the ragged edge of the bullring as he made his way forward. The Clarksburg driver jumped to second and then challenged Carrick n

HistoriCorps volunteers remove worn siding. HistoriCorps offers on-the-job training while preserving historical places.

IOOF Hall

Continued from A1

Some volunteers like Carroll came prepared to take in all the on-the-job training required while others came with a ready set of skills like Doug from Nevada City and Paul from Truckee, who went right to work measuring the new siding for the walls. The two did not wish to share their last names. There was also a woodpecker busy burrowing into the walls with no instructions needed. Nearby, Bobby Joe Evans, 73, went to work cutting the siding. An old hand at HistoriCorps, he said he’s been volunteering with them for 10 years, lending his woodworking skills. Almost a part-time job, between March through November he volunteers on different projects around the country and in between goes home to Fruita, Colo. A man who lived to hitchhike when he was only 14 and living in California, he said as he hitchhiked he saw the old west dying as buildings were bulldozed. “I love this country and hated to see history going one board at a time. People worked so hard to build a life out here. We honor them by saving it. I love the history. I love the effort people put into it and don’t want to see it disappear. This is our shared history.” The Coloma Lodge No. 27 of IOOF was originally organized Aug. 21, 1854. The property for the hall was deeded to the Odd Fellows by James Johnson and his wife and the lodge was built in 1854 under the guidance of J.C. Brown. The state acquired the property in 1959. The Greek-revival-style building is

among the oldest IOOF halls in El Dorado County and stands as one of the oldest fraternal halls in the state. The IOOF Hall in Diamond Springs was built in 1852 and the IOOF Hall in Georgetown, originally serving as the Balsar House Hotel, in 1859. In addition to being a meeting place for IOOF Coloma Lodge No. 27, the Rebekah’s (a fraternal order and service organization affiliated with the IOOF), the Masons and the National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, the lower floor of the building was once used as a Baptist Church as well as a Baptist and Methodist Sunday school and served as a schoolhouse in 1915 when the county’s first courthouse, which housed the school, was destroyed by fire. In more recent times the hall played host to community breakfasts and meetings and accommodated Santa during Christmas in Coloma. The building has been closed for several years for safety reasons. Recently State Parks allocated funding to begin the process of cleaning up and restoring the building. In fall 2020 a hazardous waste contractor removed unhealthy and unsafe materials, mitigated mold and sanitized the building. Park officials say they hope to again use the building once repairs are completed. HistoriCorps volunteers are also taking on restoration projects at Sly Guard Station and the Harvey West Cabin in the Eldorado National Forest.

for the lead until things got a little too close for comfort in turn three between the pair. It resulted in Cox sitting idle in the turn to bring out the caution and suffer heartbreak after looking like one of the competitors to beat. Then Hollister’s Ryan Bernal carved his way up to second before getting over the edge and dropping spots on lap 24. T. Carrick, Becker and Redding’s Chase Madjic went at it in lapped traffic much to the delight of the solid crowd on hand. That all came to a stop though when Bernal got off the corner again to bring out a yellow. A red flag on the restart for several drivers then created an open red and following that it was all Carrick, who drove off to take the checkered flag over Becker and Madjic. Carrick earned his best career Sprint Car Challenge Tour finish. Colfax racer Willie Croft had a strong run in fourth with Mather’s Kalib Henry rounding out the top-five. Jodie Robinson had a fine run and was the Hard Charger in the main event. The 18-year-old out of Foresthill carved her way from 22nd all the way up to finish sixth. Completing the top-10 were Cox, who rebounded nicely, Bubba Decaires, 23rd starter Tristin Guardino and Colby Copeland. Joel Myers Jr. captured the B-main while Stephen Ingraham took home a $100 award for being the first nontransfer. Heat wins went to Bernal, Andy Forsberg, Cox and Justin Sanders. The companion Bay Cities Racing Association Lightning Sprint feature was all about Palmdale driver Eric Greco Jr., who had his way with things out front to earn the victory over Craig Holsted, Dakota Albright, Greg Dennett and Harlee Aguilera. Heat race wins went to Hunter Kinney and Albright.

Four divisions on tap Coming off a successful Sprint Car Challenge Tour opener Placerville Speedway now turns its attention toward a weekly reunion, with a fourdivision program set to be held for its Easter Eggstravaganza. With fans returning to the stands last week it brought back the atmosphere that has become a staple over the years at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds bullring. It certainly elevated the action and this weekend will be another “racing family reunion” of sorts, with a limited number of fans being admitted to the grandstands once again.

Tickets went on sale Monday and will be available on the placervillespeedway.com homepage until the maximum number of tickets have been sold. Pit passes are also available to watch from the hill and can be purchased ahead of time via the Pit Pay Mobile Pit Pass App. Divisions set to entertain the crowd Saturday include winged 360 sprint cars, pure stocks, mini trucks and wingless sprints. During the most recent full-time season track championships were pocketed by Andy Forsberg with the winged sprint cars, Nick Baldwin in pure stocks and Ryan Murphy with the mini trucks. Past champions and race winners are expected to be scattered throughout the entries. Last season saw seven different winners in eight events with the winged 360s. The pure stocks will get their campaign underway at the Easter Eggstravaganza. John Ewing last year was the only repeat winner in the division with other victories going to Ryan Peter, Dan Jinkerson, Jason Palmer and Les Friend. The mini trucks season in 2020 was the year of Mike Miller, albeit in a shortened slate. In the four events held Miller snagged three wins and Russ Murphy claimed the other. Sprint cars will bring an exciting brand of racing to the Placerville quarter-mile as the Hunt Tour opens its season. Its lone appearance last year saw Fair Oaks driver Jake Morgan pick up an entertaining win over Tim Sherman Jr. at the annual Forni Classic. The pit gate will open at 2 p.m. Saturday with the front grandstand gate opening at 3 p.m. Drivers meeting will be held at 4:30pm with cars on track for wheel packing at 5. Hot laps, qualifying and racing will follow. For those who can’t make it to the track, FloRacing.com will have flagto-flag coverage Saturday. The Placerville Speedway is located on the El Dorado County Fairgrounds in Placerville. For more information log onto placervillespeedway.com.

HOROSCOPE by Holiday Mathis ■ TODAY ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your work is complex, but there is no need to concern yourself with making a lot of logistical or aesthetic choices. Focus on catering to the needs of others, and your style evolves organically. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). This day’s agenda seems simple on its face, but what had to come together to make it just the way it is? Small parts made up of smaller parts, each turn relying on a hundred before. Ponder this and you’ll gain profound insight. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). This problem is like a maze. There is a higher vantage available, but it comes at a cost. To see your way out, you must give up what you want from the situation. Do this and your mind floats up and sees all. The route becomes clear. CANCER (June 22-July 22). What advice would you give to your former self? There are plenty of people in the same position you were in back there who could use the leg up. It will be heartening to realize what you’ve gained along the way. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Turn up the volume on your inner guidance system because you’re going to make the best decisions from your heart’s intuition. There is no button or knob for this. It’s like Siri. You just call out and ask. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Curiosity about others will begin with curiosity about yourself, your history and the history of your people. Your discoveries give you a strong sense of wonder about how things have unfolded for others.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ve a strong need to create a memorable moment, but you’re not sure what kind of scene you’re shooting for. Start with what you don’t want. That will bring you closer to a vision of what you do want. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When you share your stories with people outside of your usual circle, new themes and ideas will be raised. They will appreciate a different side of you, and you’ll be inspired to change the focus of your work, too. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Most people are far more likely to notice if they don’t receive respect than if they don’t give it. This poses a problem for the ungenerous, but it’s no big deal for you. You’ll overlook much in the name of compassion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It is an honor to be let into even the smallest sliver of someone’s world. Learning a new person can be like seeing a color for the first time; it brings on a strange and exciting brightening of the mind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The relationship seems fine from the “right-side-up angle.” But like an artist going for greatness, you like to turn the canvas and look again. This exposes the balance from all angles and shows you what could be improved. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The path to your purpose often emerges through a better understanding of your personal experience. Tell your story to yourself without the expectation of telling it to others. The clarity will come first. You’ll know when to share.

he Crocker Art Museum is delighted to announce its public reopening on Thursday, April 8. “We are eager to welcome the community back to the Crocker for new joyful, thought-provoking and engaging art experiences. I believe now more than ever that art has an enduring ability to bring comfort, respite, joy and a deeper understanding of ourselves and one another,” said Lial A. Jones, the museum’s Mort and Marcy Friedman director and CEO. “The safety of our staff and visitors remains our greatest concern and we are exercising caution through new health protocols and visitor limits, ensuring a safe environment for all.” The 150,000 square-foot museum at 216 O St., Sacramento, will be open four days a week, Thursday through Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. To help ensure health and comfort, entry will be by timed ticket. Tickets are available at crockerart.org or by calling (916) 808-1184. Each Sunday, April 11 through May 31, is Welcome Back Sundays with free admission sponsored by Western Health Advantage. Reservations are required. Visitor entry will be by timed ticket.

The exhibits Legends from Los Angeles: Betye, Lezley, and Alison Saar in the Crocker Collection (through Aug. 15), the exhibition explores transformation, empowerment and the reuse of historical objects which characterize Betye Saar’s work as well as her two daughters, Lezley Saar and Alison Saar. Each artist has a distinct style and works in different media, yet they are concerned with similar subject matter: race, grief, disaster, mythology, hope and family. Country, City, and Sea: Dutch Romantic and Hague School Paintings from the Beekhuis Gift (through May 2), an exhibition featuring the unique towns, landscape and shoreline of the Netherlands, which have inspired artists for centuries. Dutch artists including Jacob Maris, Hendrik Mesdag and Jozef Israels, all admired by Vincent Van Gough, are just a few of the featured 19th century artists in the exhibition who were inspired by the techniques and subjects of the Dutch Golden Age, giving way in the 1860s to a direct, tonal style that was nature-based and favored by the Hague School. Spirit Lines: Helen Hardin Etchings with works by her mother, Pablita Velarde, and daughter, Margarete Bagshaw (through May 16). This exhibition examines the artworks of Helen Hardin, a trailblazer for Native American Photo by Agust Agustsson, courtesy of Walter Maciel Gallery women artists wishing to break free “Torch Song from the Copacetic portfolio” by Alison Saar, from tradition. Accompanied by 2019. Paper collage on photograph, Crocker Art Museum the work of her mother, who also purchase with funds from the Forrest and Shirley Plant Fund, departed from convention (pottery 2020. making) to paint narratives of pueblo life, and her daughter, whose vibrant, abstract paintings feature Native American iconography and push beyond the limits of previous generations to create art recognizably her own.

“Changing Woman” by Helen Hardin, 1980. Etching on loan from Helen Hardin #1’s LLC.

The Edge of Elegance: Porcelains by Elsa Rady (through Nov. 1) is an introduction to Rady and a focused look at the evolution of her work, exploring her transition from creating functional objects to the elegant, nonfunctional pieces she is best known for today. Rady’s insistence on the refinement of color, shape and surface pushes the boundaries of what is craft and what is sculpture, which in turn has made her porcelains icons of design. This exhibition is the first solo exhibition of Rady’s work in more than a decade.

Crocker Art museum Safety protocols The museum has developed new protocols and safety procedures for its staff and visitors, following guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control, the state of California and Sacramento County.

Popcorn Easter Basket Kids can help create these adorable popcorn Easter baskets. Yield: 12 baskets (basket base: 3-inches wide and 1 3/4 tall)

Ingredients • 3 quarts popped popcorn • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter or margarine • 3 cups miniature marshmallows • 3 tablespoons (1/2 of a 3-ounce box) strawberry, lime, or lemon gelatin dessert mix • 12 licorice twists (8-inches each) • 1/2 cup shredded or flaked sweetened coconut • Green food color, or color of choice • Small candy-coated chocolate eggs or jellybeans • Equipment needed: 12-cup muffin pan

Directions 1. Spray a large mixing bowl lightly with cooking spray and place popcorn inside. 2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in marshmallows and gelatin dessert powder until marshmallows are melted and mixture is smooth. Pour over popcorn and mix well until coated. 3. Spray hands with cooking spray and press firmly to form into 12 balls. Press each popcorn ball into well of muffin tin. Press firmly into muffin pan with the back of a spoon to form base of basket. Bend and press a licorice twist firmly into both sides of each basket. (If licorice seems thick, peel 2-3 strings from each piece). 4. Place coconut into re-sealable plastic sandwich bag. Sprinkle a drop of food color onto coconut and seal bag. Press bag to distribute color evenly. Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of coconut onto each basket. Place a few candy eggs into each basket. Allow basket to set about 1 hour before gently removing baskets from muffin pan. (Removal can be made easier with the tip of a small knife applied to pan edge). 5. Serve immediately or wrap individually in plastic wrap for storage. Add a ribbon tie to plastic wrap as a decorative closure.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
