Two trees will be planted on Tuesday, December 15th in Lower Scholl Canyon park in honor of Don Rector and Sharon Kelly Lee, both long-time residents of our canyon. The trees were donated by GOCHA in honor of Don and Sharon’s dedicated commitment to our community.

The ceremony for Don’s tree, a California Sycamore, will take place on Tuesday at 10:50am, immediately followed by the dedication of Sharon’s tree, a Toyon tree, at 11am. We hope to see you there.

Ghouls Night Out

This past Halloween, canyon trick or treaters received an extra something special when local residents and a generous contribution from GOCHA allowed for a stretch of Hollister Terrace between Edwards and Tryon to be closed to automobile traffic, making this popular area safe for our youngest goblins and super heroes to ply their candy grabbing skills. In addition, magic shows and costume contests rounded out the festivities making this past Halloween one of the most memorable in some time.

Special thanks to  Eileen Young for getting the ball rolling.
