Downtown Hosts First Wine in the Pines

O
n September 15, 2016, Downtown Paradise hosted its first Art and Wine Walk, Wine in the Pines. The public was invited to enjoy everything downtown Paradise has to offer while sampling local wine, food and art. Ticket sales benefitted the Boys and Girls Club of the North Valley and its “giving kids the tools they need for back to school” program. Wine in the Pines took place at businesses located in the downtown area, generally Skyway between Pearson and Elliot. Paradise businesses outside the downtown area occupied booth spaces. Ticket holders collected a map of participating businesses, wrist band and wine glass. Tickets sold for $20 allowed attendees to taste wine provided by local wineries at 6 participating business locations. Ticket holders also visited participating businesses offering food and special promotions. In addition, local artists displayed their art in participating business locations. Representatives from select wineries were on hand to pour the wine and provide information on the wine provided. The goal of this event was not only to
canned goods. Please bring canned goods to the parade, and look for bins around town to donate non-perishable food to the Ridge’s hungry families. Trucks will stage at Thomas Ace Hardware beginning at 4:30p.m. on Saturday, December 3. The Clampers’ Weinie Wagon will be on hand for hot snacks. The parade will progress from Pearson up Skyway, turn around in the Holiday Plaza Parking lot, and then drive back down Skyway. Trophies will be awarded in the small and large truck categories. To enter your truck, contact Eric Hegenbart at 873-2692 or fishheadecv711@yahoo.com.

local and to introduce many residents and visitors to what Paradise has to offer. Wine in the Pines was made possible by generous support from Holiday Market, HeavenScent Candles and More, and A Stitch Above Embroider y & Shirt Printing. The first Wine in the Pines was a tremendous success due to the hard work and commitment of local individuals and businesses, and future events are in the works.

Johnny Appleseed Days 2016: By Mark Thorp Membership/Events Coordinator, Paradise Ridge Chamber of Commerce
B
y any standards, Johnny Appleseed Days 2016 was a rousing success. The fact that weather plays an important factor in any event didn’t escape the 128th annual harvest festivities. With a thunderstorm lingering on the horizon, residents and visitors came out in droves on Saturday, creating waiting lines at the Rite Aid Pie Pavilion and at popular craft and tasting booths. The 850 carefully crafted pies were gone in seven hours! The entertainment attracted a standingroom only audience; entertainment Co-Directors Frank Dodini and Sandy Miller were astonished by the number of attendees this year and declared to the event staff, “You’ve got to come see this!” Belly dancing, martial arts displays, acoustic and multi-piece bands entertained throughout the afternoon, much to the delight of young and old alike. In addition to showcasing Paradise, Johnny Appleseed Days provides a weekend venue for product and informational visibility, revenue generation, and outreach for our many community organizations. Paradise Chamber is proud to assist in the promotion of our community and all it has to offer. Apple pies sold out earlier than anticipated, but those who made the effort to attend early were not disappointed. White pie boxes held carefully as purchasers left the Pie Pavilion were coveted, and proudly displayed in an “I got mine” fashion. For three days prior to the festival, volunteer “Apple Corps” bakers with loving hands and generous spirits, gathered from the all parts of the Ridge, with some arriving from as far as Los Angeles, to participate in this year’s pie making party. Cooperative efforts from our numerous community organizations including Bare on the Ridge, De Sabla Guild, Pine Ridge Women’s Club, Paradise Rotary, Quota International of Paradise, Mr. Vixie’s Class at Paradise Adventist Academy, Paradise Moose Lodge, Magalia Beautification Association, The Ridgeview Rangers, and the California Conservation Corps converged upon the Paradise Moose Lodge to build, bake, and shuffle the golden treasures to the Terry Ashe Park Pavilion. A generous thank you goes out to the staff and members of the Paradise Moose Lodge for their facilities and welcoming spirit. If you’d like to join the Paradise Ridge Chamber of Commerce Apple Corps, call 877-9356 or email info@paradisechamber.com. It’s a party you don’t want to miss. Alas, we’d be remiss if we didn’t list the
