Main Street to Close for Winterfest Parade
The annual Winterfest Parade will take place this Saturday evening, bringing holiday cheer — and a temporary road closure — to downtown Alturas.
City officials announced that Main Street will be closed from Carlos Street to 12th Street between approximately 5:15 and 6:30 p.m. to accommodate the parade and ensure a safe environment for spectators and participants.
The closure is part of a coordinated safety plan involving law enforcement officers and local volunteers who will assist with traffic control throughout the event.

Harvey Pack Moves into Modoc County
Veterans Day guide to honor local service members
The Harvey Pack has spent the past week moving toward Modoc County, appearing on local radar after first registering near Termo. GPS collar data from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) placed the wolves on the Surprise Valley in the South Warners late Tuesday night before they moved west toward Jess Valley Wednesday morning.
Veterans Day is a time for reflection, gratitude and community. This November, Modoc Record is preparing a special guide dedicated to honoring the men and women who have served in the nation’s armed forces.
The guide will feature profiles of local veterans, community events, support resources and ways for residents to get involved. It will be printed and distributed throughout Modoc and Lassen counties. Stories will highlight resilience, sacrifice and
wintering cattle and sheep rest. Those locations signaled the pack’s access to the Warners and in to Modoc. The Harvey Pack has been involved in livestock depredations in the Sierra Valley and surrounding areas, incidents confirmed through state investigations, and their presence here has drawn immediate concern.

Ranchers have said that delay makes the system difficult to use when protecting livestock, especially during periods of active wolf movement.

Veterans Day is not only about honoring the past — it’s about recognizing the ongoing contributions of veterans in our neighborhoods, workplaces and families.

The guide aims to provide both inspiration and practical resources, ensuring local stories of courage and commitment are remembered and celebrated.

path and raise questions about the locations of any uncollared pack members.
Jess Valley was the area of last year’s confirmed wolf attacks, an incident that continues to shape local concerns as wolves move across open-range country. At the time of writing, the Modoc County Record has reached out to CDFW with questions about the recent movement and is awaiting comment. The collar data placed the wolf near Brooks Mill along the road to Blue Lake, a well-known area in the South Warners. Blue Lake is home to a longrunning children’s camp and sits roughly 10 to 15 miles south of Brooks Mill.
Looking Back
Looking Back
My wife and I just mailed off our ballots for the oneissue special election that will determine whether or not Modoc County and the other few far north counties are robbed of our political voices in Sacramento. The thought of being at the mercy of the far-left coastal population is way beyond unacceptable.
Many homes in Modoc and Lassen counties rely on wood heat, and the way a fire is built affects everything from indoor air quality to stove performance. Choosing the right starter makes fires easier to light and keeps smoke and soot to a minimum.
Newspaper is still a common choice, but it is one of the least effective. Modern newsprint burns too fast, creates a quick flare and sends light ash into the air before the firebox has warmed. That ash can drift into the room or settle in the flue, and the brief burst of flame rarely provides enough heat for larger wood to catch.
Dry kindling works far better. Thin pine sticks, juniper kindling, cedar shavings or small twigs burn long enough to raise the temperature inside the stove and support the next layer of fuel. Pine needles and other dry yard debris can be added
Let me tell you a true story from my childhood on the Monterey Peninsula. At age 10 just after my family moved back to Monterey from Lake Tahoe where we lived for two years while my dad helped develop Squaw Valley for the 1960 Winter Olympics, a family from New York moved in down the street from us. They moved to California because they thought the gold rush was still going on. Yep, I kid you not, that’s how ignorant they were of California history. This little true story
as well, as long as they are clean and fully dry.
Commercial fire starters made of wood fiber and wax provide a steady flame that lasts several minutes. They eliminate the flare-up of paper, produce minimal ash and give logs time to ignite without repeated relighting. They are useful during cold mornings when the stove is completely cooled.
folk who have no idea of the challenges and problems and issues of ranchers, farmers, loggers, and so on. I bet that if a survey was done on the coast that asked where their food comes from they’d think that their food grows on the shelves of grocery stores. If that same hypothetical survey asked coastal folk where the lumber comes from to build their houses they would not be able to answer that question.
A simple structure helps the fire succeed. Small kindling goes down first, followed by medium pieces, with larger logs added only after a steady flame develops. All wood should be kept dry and stored off the ground. Moisture is one of the most common reasons a fire struggles, regardless of starting method.
Some Modoc County folk were born-and-raised here so they had no choice in finding themselves here, but some of us came here from coastal urban areas and we came here to get away from all that madness. My wife and I are not clueless former coastal folk, and we cherish the unique character and issues of Modoc County.

Sixteen Alturas residents had their cars stored there for the winter and only five were saved from the blaze. Beside the garage, the businesses of Armstrong Saloon, Warren Saloon, Rochford barbershop, and Arabold and Pit River Hardware warehouses and the Exchange Restaurant were either destroyed or badly damaged in the blaze. The fire started when Mr. Renshaw lighted a gasoline torch in a repair pit and set fire to nearby gasoline. Mr. Renshaw barely escaped with his life.

5 Tips for Strengthening Social Bonds During the Holidays
By Dr. Nicole Brady, Chief Medical Officer, UnitedHealthcare Student Resources
For many, the holiday season provides a unique opportunity to pause from daily responsibilities and focus on the people who matter most. While giftgiving and festivities are often the center of celebrations, the true value of the season lies in nurturing meaningful connections with friends, family, and community. Research shows that strong social ties are associated with improved mental and physical health, making connection powerful and lasting gifts we can share.
Additionally, UnitedHealthcare’s recent College Student and Graduate Behavioral Health Report found that 60% of college students reported that they or a peer encountered a behavioral health concern over the past year, far more than most parents believe. This gap underscores why intentional connection may matter now more than ever.
Here are a few ways to help foster connection during the
holidays: Engage in Intentional Conversations: Highquality conversations, actively listening, asking open-ended questions, and validating feelings, may reduce stress and build resilience. Research finds that strong communication supports both emotional well-being and strengthens relationship quality. For young adults especially, data highlights that those who talk more frequently with their parents about mental well-being report feeling more supported, understood, and connected. Taking time to ask thoughtful questions and truly listen may make a lasting difference this season.
Revisit or Create Traditions: Shared rituals and traditions, whether large or small, may help promote belonging and strengthening of family bonds as routines and traditions may provide structure, enhance resilience, and support children’s mental health. Therefore, consider reviving old traditions or creating new ones, such as cooking together, storytelling
or neighborhood walks. Reach Out to Those Who May Feel Lonely: Loneliness and isolation are linked to increased risk of depression and anxiety. The holidays can be particularly difficult for those living alone or far from friends or family. A phone call, card or small gesture of inclusion may help someone feel remembered and cared for.
Move Together: Physical activity supports both body and mind, and it’s even more powerful with friends. Research shows that exercise in general reduces stress, boosts mood, and strengthens focus, while group activities, such as walking with others, may also sharpen memory and thinking skills. Whether it’s a walk, run, or casual game, shared movement creates space for conversation, laughter, and healthy connection during the holiday season.
Utilize Support Resources: If you or a loved one finds the holiday season overwhelming, remember that help is available. Talking with a primary care provider or a mental
health professional can be an important first step in addressing stress, loneliness, or other concerns. For everyday support, digital tools and virtual resources through your health plan may also provide convenient ways to help boost well-being. For example, some insurers such as UnitedHealthcare offer Calm Health, virtual behavioral coaching, and 24/7 in the moment support lines. Checking in with these resources can help you or your family members
feel more supported and connected throughout the season.
The holidays are about more than gifts or busy schedules. They are a reminder of the power of human connection. Whether through meaningful conversations, family traditions or leaning on available resources, even small acts of connection can leave a lasting impact and help make this season brighter for ourselves and those around us.
We provide support and opportunities for people to attain safety and well-being in our community. Modoc County Department of Social Services (MCDSS) has the following employment opportunities available: ● Eligibility

Magical Country Christmas to Light Up Historic Uptown Susanville on December 6
Historic Uptown Susanville will host its annual Magical Country Christmas celebration on December 6, bringing families and visitors together for an evening of holiday activities.

SIDEBAR: What a Brady Violation Means
A Brady violation occurs when prosecutors fail to give the defense evidence that could help a defendant. The rule comes from a 1963 Supreme Court decision that requires the government to share any information that is favorable to the accused. The evidence can be many things. It may call a witness into question, reveal doubts about how an investigation was handled or support the defense in a way the court should know about. A violation can happen even when the omission is unintentional. If the missing information could have changed the outcome of a case, courts may overturn convictions or order new trials.
“The most effective way to do it is to just do it.”
December’s Roman Roots
The name “December” carries a reminder of an older way of keeping time.
In the earliest Roman calendar, December was not the twelfth month, but the tenth. Its name comes from the Latin decem, meaning “ten,” a holdover from a calendar that once ended in mid-winter rather than beginning a new year on January 1.
The early Roman year, traditionally traced to the eighth century B.C., began in March, when farming cycles resumed, and ended in December. Winter was considered a quiet, dormant stretch that stood outside the calendar entirely. Only later were January and February added, shifting December to the end of the year while leaving its original name in place.
Though the Roman calendar may feel far removed from presentday Modoc County, the logic behind it can sound familiar. Much like ancient Rome, many in Modoc still recognize December as the point where the working year slows down and winter settles in. Cattle are moved off higher ground, irrigation is long finished, and the agricultural pace gives way to maintenance, planning and waiting for spring moisture. Even local traditions, from holiday gatherings to the winter pause in outdoor events, echo that sense of a year turning inward.
The Romans eventually updated their system through the Julian and later Gregorian calendars,
but the name “December” survived every reform. Today it marks the close of the modern year for Modoc residents, yet its meaning still connects back to a world where the calendar followed the land more closely. For a county defined by its seasons, open landscapes and agricultural footing, that older rhythm remains easy to recognize.

16th Annual Modoc Turkey Trot
TEACH Inc. held the 2025 Modoc Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning at the Modoc Wildlife Refuge. It was a beautiful morning and a huge success. We had a great turn out for the 3 mile walk/run and raised nearly $2,600. Funds raised this year will benefit the TEACH Inc. Senior Services Program.
For many older adults in our community, the “golden years” are anything but golden. Rising costs of food, utilities, gas, and medical care are hitting fixed incomes hard. Social Security, the primary source of income for many seniors, was never designed to cover today’s cost of living. Too many elders are forced to make impossible choices each month: Do they pay for prescription medication or keep the heat on? Do they cut back on groceries so they can cover rent?
So what can we do? First, we can support the local programs already working to fill the gaps—whether that’s senior services, or the food bank. Every donation, every volunteer hour, makes a difference. Second, we can advocate—at city council meetings, with our county supervisors, and to state representatives—for policies that protect and support seniors in rural communities like ours. And finally, we can return to what Modoc does best: caring for each other. A ride to the doctor, a bag of groceries left at the door, or simply checking in on a neighbor can lighten someone’s burden more than we realize. Our seniors should not be forced into poverty after a lifetime of work. They built the foundation of the community we enjoy today.
It is our turn to ensure they are not forgotten. In Modoc County, no one should have to grow old alone—or in financial despair.
We want to thank our sponsors and their generous support who made this event possible. Thank you to Modoc Insurance Services, Cates and Company CPA, Ed Staub & Sons, Four Seasons Supply Center, Holiday Market- Alturas, Grocery Outlet- Alturas, Lazy B Grill, Alturas Tire Center, Flex 1 Yard Care, Hoang Chinese Restaurant, Saddleback Sanitation, Completely Customs, Double

Surprise Valley School District is very proud to announce that our Agricultural teacher, Maigen Scritchfield received the Teacher of Excellence Award for the Intermountain Section and also for the Superior Region. Mrs. Scritchfield attended the CATA fall meeting back in October, where she was presented with these two awards. Maigen is completely in charge of our ag department as she is the only teacher for this program and in her tenth year teaching in Surprise Valley. She is a very active participant in the school community, in the community of Surprise Valley, but also takes on leadership rolls among regional and state ag teachers. She attends conferences every year, and for 2024-2025 she was on the governing board for the state committee. She was a sectional office for four years and is currently a regional officer among the ag teacher community. In 2023-2024 school year Mrs. Scritchfield received Intermountain
Outstanding Single Person Agriculture Program and Outstanding Single Person Agriculture Program for the Superior Region, Maigen moved on and won the state award and in December of 2024 Mrs. Scritchfield was the winner of the NAAE National Program Award. During these 10 years of teaching, Mrs. Scritchfield has had 21 students receive their California State FFA Degrees, four students receive their National FFA Degree, has had 2 Regional Officer candidates and one student selected as a Regional Officer. Mrs. Scritchfield has had a student selected to be a National FFA Delegate, students have competed and placed in many regional and sectional speaking contests. Students have also participated on Farm Power, Livestock and Welding teams under Mrs. Scritchfield supervision. Mrs. Scritchfield has 3 state approved pathways for students at Surprise Valley, Agriculture Mechanics, Agriculture Business, and Agriscience.
Our small rural school has provided opportunities for students through a school farm (raising turkeys and chickens), greenhouse and now a hoop house full of opportunities, a welding shop and a wood shop.
Maigen is the first teacher in the history of the ag program at Surprise Valley to bring animals to the school to raise and sell. Maigen along with the 8th and 9th graders plant and grow plants and host a plant sale in May. Many opportunities are created and provided by our only ag teacher, Maigen Scritichfield. Congratulations on your Teacher of Excellence Awards.
I was born in Long Beach, I am a native Californian. I grew up in Orange County when there were strawberry fields and orange groves, and, oh yeah, lots of dairy cows. We lived in the rural country where we could play football, skateboard and surf. California thrived and everyone enjoyed freedom. We were a fairly poor family, didn't have new cars or fancy clothes, but life was good.
Modoc County is very much like the lifestyle my family enjoyed in Orange County sans the ocean. Life here in Modoc is simple, we have reasonably priced homes, good schools and a great community. Modoc has the 3rd smallest population of the 58 counties in California, but we should NEVER be misconstrued as a small populace. We ARE LARGE IN HEART and IDEALS.
For our citizenry to be LUMPED TOGETHER in the same voting district WITH MARIN COUNTY in the Bay Area is CRIMINAL!
WE SOUNDLY REJECT the ONEROUS TRAMPLING of our RIGHTS as DICTUM by the whims of an EGOTISTICAL Governor. WE WILL NEVER FORGET that during COVID, our Governor, FEASTED at THE FRENCH LAUNDRY IN NAPA!...."RULES FOR THEE, BUT NOT FOR ME".was his rallying cry!
WE WILL NEVER COMPLY TO PROP 50! "WE WILL NEVER, NEVER, EVER SURRENDER"! Winston Churchill
We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair. II Corinthians 4:8

‘Supermoon’ rises over Modoc Thursday
A supermoon will rise over Modoc County on Thursday night, offering one of the brightest and clearest fullmoon views the region will see this year. Because the moon will be at perigee, its closest point to Earth, it will appear slightly larger and noticeably brighter as it comes up over the mountains.
The difference is enough for many here to see without any special equipment. A supermoon can look up to fourteen percent larger than an average full moon and cast strong, silvery light across rangeland, hay fields, lakebeds and open sage country.
Weather models show a mix of cloudy and clear patches, but even thin breaks in the cloud cover can reveal the deep orange, larger-than-usual moon as it rises. The intense
color usually lasts only a few minutes. As it climbs higher, the moon cools to its familiar white but remains brighter than normal through the night.
Because Modoc County sits at high elevation with low light pollution, the supermoon often feels more dramatic here than in urban areas.Travelers along Highway 395, and early-morning workers will all see the effect well into Friday morning as the moon sets.
Supermoons occur several times a year, but each one is a chance for the region to show off the wide-open skies that make the high desert such a good place for night watching. For anyone with a clear view to the east on Thursday evening, the show begins as soon as the moon touches the horizon.
Federal Decision Deals a Blow to Future Nurses
A recent federal change to how nursing programs are classified for student loans comes at a difficult time for rural regions such as Modoc County. Local jobs data from the Northern California Economic Partnership shows that Health Care and Social Assistance is one of the county’s largest employment sectors. The report does not separate how many of these jobs belong to nurses or certified nursing assistants, but the size of the sector shows how much the area depends on the care economy.
National statistics underline that dependence. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports about 1.35 million nursing assistants working across the United States. These workers support hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities and rural health systems. In communities like Modoc County, these positions provide essential care and steady employment in a limited labor market.
Beginning in 2026, federal borrowing limits for graduate nursing students will change as the Department of Education phases out certain loan categories for programs that are no longer labeled as professional degrees.
Not included:
Nursing degrees (including MSN, DNP, NP programs)
Physical therapy (D.P.T.)
Occupational therapy (O.T.D.)
Students in nursing and other fields will have access to smaller loan amounts than those offered to traditional professionaldegree programs such as law or medicine. For rural areas, this could mean higher out-of-pocket costs for students, fewer residents who can afford to continue their training and more pressure on employers already working with small staff sizes.
These changes do not alter licensure requirements or the content of nursing programs. They do, however, create new financial obstacles at a time when rural providers often struggle to recruit and keep workers. In places where health care is one of the largest sources of employment, the cost of training future nurses may affect how well local services can be maintained.
Grizzlies’ Winning Streak Ends in Playoff Battle With Orland
The Lassen Grizzlies’ impressive postseason run came to a close on the 21st of November with a tough 2016 loss to the Orland Trojans. The matchup ended Lassen’s seven-game winning streak and capped a season defined by steady growth, strong leadership and a resilient roster that delivered week after week.
This playoff meeting was a
rematch of the teams’ earlier regular-season contest, when Lassen defeated Orland 49-35. Friday’s game had a different tone. Both defenses tightened, and Orland found just enough offense to slip past a determined Grizzly squad.
Despite the result, Lassen put together a performance that reflected the strength they displayed throughout
the year. Running back Dathen Moore was outstanding, rushing for 209 yards and a touchdown while averaging 9.5 yards per carry. His impact was clear all season. Lassen went 8-1 in games where Moore gained at least 80 rushing yards.
Lassen’s defense also battled to the end, but Orland leaned on strong
performances from Manny Martin and Luke Schager. Martin recorded 112 total yards and two touchdowns, while Schager added 152 rushing yards and a score. Their production proved just enough in a close postseason contest.
With the loss, Lassen finishes the season at 9-3. The Grizzlies entered the playoffs on a surge, including a commanding 49-9 win over Corning, and demonstrated throughout the fall that they could compete with the region’s best. A powerful ground game anchored by Moore and Dowan Stephens gave the team consistent momentum, and younger
players gained valuable experience along the way.
Although the postseason run ended earlier than fans hoped, the Grizzlies delivered a memorable season filled with highlight moments and hard-earned victories. The team now turns the page toward next year with a strong foundation and plenty to build on.
The Lassen community can be proud of the heart and effort shown each week. The Grizzlies gave everything they had, and their season will be remembered for its grit, growth and determination.
Modoc Braves Conclude Season After Playoff Battle
ALTURAS, CA –
The Modoc Braves varsity football team wrapped up their 2025 season on Friday, November 18, following a challenging playoff matchup against the undefeated Redding Christian Lions. The Braves fell 42-0, ending a year marked by steady effort and improvement.
The shutout was the only time this season Modoc’s offense was held scoreless, underscoring the strength of Redding Christian’s defense. The Lions also brought a commanding offense. Running back Conner Moore rushed for a career-high 158 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 8.3 yards per carry. Quarterback Wyatt Shaw added 300 passing yards and four touchdowns,
completing 80 percent of his throws.
The Braves continued to play with heart throughout the game, showing the persistence and sportsmanship that have defined their season. Modoc closes the year with a 4-7 overall record and the achievement of earning a place in the postseason. Players, coaches and supporters can take pride in the work that carried the team through the year.
Redding Christian advances with an 11-0 record as they continue their playoff run. The Alturas community extends its thanks to the Modoc Braves for an exciting and memorable football season.

DA Discusses Leak After Confidential Brady Letter on Former Chief Is Published
Lassen News on Monday published a September 24, 2025 letter written by Modoc County District Attorney Nina Salarno regarding former Alturas Police Chief Marc Muller. The letter was not released publicly by the district attorney’s office, and Lassen News did not disclose how it obtained the document.
The Modoc County Record was not provided the letter prior to its publication elsewhere. The Record routinely obtains government communications through formal California Public Records Act requests to ensure accuracy and legal compliance.
The letter, addressed to local defense attorneys, informed counsel that Muller had been designated as a “Brady officer.” Under state and federal law, prosecutors must disclose information that could be used to challenge the credibility of a peace officer who may testify in court.
According to the letter, the Modoc County District Attorney’s Office issued the designation after
reviewing an administrative investigation conducted by the City of Alturas. The City released its findings to the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training, or POST, as required by state law.
The Brady letter specifically states that it was the City of Alturas investigation which concluded that Muller had committed Dishonesty. The document also stated that the investigation involved “alleged ‘Gross Misconduct’” in September 2025.
Because the investigation included confidential personnel material and witness information, Salarno wrote that the district attorney’s office was deferring to defense counsel to file any appropriate Pitchess motions. These motions are required under California law for accessing certain peace officer records.
The letter also said the district attorney’s office was conducting a records search to identify cases that may have involved Muller as a witness which then required Salarno to evaluate the cases for Brady consideration.
Salarno advised defense attorneys to conduct their own review of the case as part of their due diligence and to notify the office of any issues that may require evaluation under Brady obligations.
The letter additionally referenced a March 2021 ruling by Superior Court Judge David S. Hart that found Muller had “shown dishonesty during official duties.” That finding came from a prior, unrelated search-warrant matter.
After the letter was published, the District Attorney’s Office issued a press release stating that it “disapproves of the leak of an internal document concerning former Alturas Police Chief Marc Muller.”
The press release said the document was considered “confidential and sensitive information” and that it had not been publicly released by the district attorney’s office.
“Our office did not publicly release what we considered to be confidential and sensitive information concerning former Chief Muller,” Salarno said in the statement. “Matters of this
nature are subject to the rules of evidence and should only be released in judicial proceedings as governed by law.”
The press release said the letter was issued to defense attorneys to meet legal and ethical obligations, noting it was Salarno’s duty under state and federal law to notify defense counsel of information that could impact testimony.
Salarno said she “does not condone the release of the document or the actions of
the individual who leaked the document to the press.”
The district attorney’s office also stated that Lassen News did not contact the office for comment or clarification before publishing the letter.
The district attorney’s office said it is continuing to identify any cases that may be affected by Muller’s Brady designation. The office directed further inquiries to the Modoc County District Attorney’s Office.
Policies in 2025: A Quick Review of Federal Decisions Affecting Rural California
Several major federal policy shifts in 2025 carried direct implications for rural communities, including Modoc and Lassen counties. Here are the key changes residents may notice going into 2026:
• U.S. Forest Service Logging and Management Expansion:
The USDA directed the Forest Service to increase timber production and speed up thinning, fuels work and project approvals. Supporters say it may reduce wildfire risk. Critics warn about habitat and watershed impacts.
• Federal Layoffs and Hiring Freeze:
A government-wide hiring freeze and agency layoffs reduced staffing in land-management roles, including trail maintenance, restoration work and conservation programs. Rural counties may see slower response times and fewer field personnel.
• Uncertainty Around the 2025 Farm Bill:
With debates ongoing and no full
bill passed, farmers and ranchers face questions about long-term conservation funding, grazing support and drought-resilience programs. Temporary extensions remain in place.
• Proposed Fix Our Forests Act: Introduced in Congress to speed up wildfire-risk reduction projects in high-fire zones. If adopted, it could accelerate thinning and controlled burns on nearby federal lands.
• National Climate Assessments: Federal reports showed rising wildfire, drought and heat risks across the West. These assessments influence emergency-management funding and long-term planning for rural counties.
These policy shifts shape everything from forest work and grazing access to conservation assistance and wildfire preparedness. Modoc and Lassen residents may see more visible effects as the changes continue into 2026.

WARNING – PROPERTY OWNERSHIP INFORMATION (ADVERTENCIA –INFORMACIÓN SOBRE PROPIEDAD)
If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call or (888) 902-3989 or visit these internet websites or www.nestortrustee. com, using the file number assigned to this case 202515755-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
California law provides that property acquired during marriage or domestic partnership in joint form is presumed to be community property. If one party dies before the property is divided, the form of title (e.g., joint tenancy, tenants in common, or community property) will control. You should consult an attorney if you wish to have the community property presumption reflected in the title.
La ley de California
NOTICE TO TENANTS: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil
establece que los bienes adquiridos durante el matrimonio o la pareja de hecho en forma conjunta se presumen como propiedad comunitaria. Si una de las partes fallece antes de la división, la forma de titularidad (por ejemplo, tenencia conjunta, en común o propiedad comunitaria) prevalecerá. Consulte a un abogado si desea que la presunción de propiedad comunitaria figure en el título.

Santa’s Magic Garden Opens for the Holiday Season
Families looking for a cheerful holiday outing will again find it at Santa’s Magic Garden, a free community event held throughout December at 100 East 14th Street in Alturas. The garden opens every Saturday and Sunday from 3 to 7 p.m., offering children a chance to visit Santa and his crew in a welcoming outdoor setting. Hot chocolate and candy canes are available while supplies last, and weekday visits may be scheduled by reservation. Organizers encourage families to plan ahead by emailing
santassecretgarden25@gmail. com, especially if they want Santa to know their child’s name, age and Christmas wish before they arrive. Because the event is outdoors, visitors may be asked to take a number and wait in their vehicles if the weather turns cold. The goal, organizers say, is to keep the experience warm and comfortable for children while keeping the line moving smoothly.
Santa’s Magic Garden is held in memory of Addilynne Schibbelhut, whose family created the event as a way to
bring joy to the community and honor her life. The garden has continued to grow each year, supported by volunteers and local families who look forward to the tradition as the holiday season begins. The event is open to everyone at no cost.
