County Planning is working on a community plan update for San Miguel. In the process, they are asking residents to participate in the "Complete Communities Survey." As part of the Survey, the County would like to find out which public facilities residents feel are lacking in their community and what priorities residents give to these facilities. This is also part of a larger project for San Miguel, Templeton, Oceano, and Nipomo that looks at what infrastructure and public facilities will be needed in the future and how to fund and finance them. The on-line survey is just one part of the Complete Communities Survey project. You may take the survey online and add your comments.
Lillian Larsen Students Visit Tech Museum
The Lillian Larsen 2nd graders in Mrs. Strobridge’s class joined their reading buddies in Mrs. Granados’ 6th grade class on a hands-on adventure to the Tech Museum in San Jose on February 29.
The “adventure” began at 7AM. Thirty-four excited students and 15 adults were off to experience hands-on, interactive activities that were second to none!
All the exhibits were perfect for young learners. The exhibits, in the themed galleries, focused on such things such as the evolution of computer technology, green technology, solar, light, and water energy, force and motion, and the natural world around us. The highlight of our day was attending a movie in the IMAX Dome Theatre where students watched “Hubble.” Students were amazed and delighted to see our universe close up and personal—just like they were astronauts on the space shuttle.
The day ended at 4:40PM with smiling students excited to share their day with their waiting parents.
