ME CONTACT THE GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCEMENTS: LOCAL
FARMER'S MARKETS are starting again this month! They are looking for
farmers, growers, bakers, canners, artists, and musicians. Join the
growing fun of local direct sales. Farmers markets are the local
sustainable way for us to all market ourselves. Do you love children?
They are looking for volunteers to help run a children's booth at the
Weaverville market. More info: call 623-6821. Do you have a junked auto/truck that needs to go away?
Or does your neighbor? For $50, that junker can be towed away by
Loralin at Douglas City Towing. She is doing this at the cost of her
gas. When she gets enough cars/trucks, she'll call the crusher. If you
have the pink slip - great, but she will haul the vehicle away as long
as it has a VIN (vehicle identification number). Maybe you'd like to
'sponsor' the removal of an unsightly vehicle? Just make arrangements
with the owner, pay Loralin $50 and it will be gone! Not sure how long
this great offer will last, but it's a good one! Also, if you have AAA
towing, you can have your junker towed to Douglas City garage for free!
This is a great way to get Trinity County cleaned up! WEAVERVILLE - Movies at Trinity Theatre. Admission: $7/adults, $5/children 10 & under and seniors 60 & older.

Let It Ride (2007) marks band's fourth full length LP, spanning themes of love and heartbreak, faith and despair, political corruption and hope.

Bob Littell, General Manager of Sierra Nevada Big Room: "I've had the pleasure of presenting over 40 artists that have been nominated for W.C. Handy Awards (the Oscar of da blues). When listening to Rube & The Rhythm Rockers, it quickly becomes apparent that these guys have spent quality time studying at the altar of the masters. Right off, you notice two things. First, they �get it.� They understand the language of the blues. And second, that Rube and his journeyman group of bluesmen understand that it's tone and taste that makes the blues touch the soul. I highly recommend you give them a listen. And even more, I recommend you see them live. Rube & The Rhythm Rockers live is where it's at."
