AV Grange Mart
People have been asking if the AV Grange Mart will again be in operation this winter. The answer is YES. Several interested vendors have come together to make it happen.

Panther Soccer 2009
by Steve Sparks
Last Wednesday (10/21) the Point Arena Pirates were visitors to the Valley and AV hoped to make up for their poor performance on the coast a couple of weeks ago — a game the Panthers won 4-0 but in which they played well below par. Sure enough, after a slow start, the superior skills and [...]

Gowan’s Generosity
The Gowan family once again invited every kindergartener and first grade student to come on down and pick (for a tiny fee) their very own Halloween pumpkin right out of the field where they were grown. Teacher Linnea Totten invited me to come along so I tromped through the sticky brown loam with many chaperone [...]

If anyone out there knows where these students are now please contact me at tryder@mcn.org or call 895-2146. At the time W.T. Johnson was headed to Lassen Community College, [...]
