The Estrella War Birds flew overhead to start the 20th Annual Sagebrush Days Parade on April 26th! Parade entries included fire engines, military vehicles from Camp Roberts, classic cars, the Sheriff's Posse, the Sagebrush Fillies, rocking country music from The Ranch float, Heritage Oaks Bank group and numerous walking entries. The parade is hosted by the Friends of the San Miguel Library working with the San Miguel Native Sons, the San Miguel Fire Dept. and the San Miguel Resource Connection. San Miguel School Superintendent Dean Smith and parade coordinator Mary Kalvans announced the parade entries from the emcee booth as they passed along Mission Street. The San Miguel Volunteer Firefighters hosted a tri-tip BBQ in front of the fire station after the parade. The parade was at risk to be held this year as for the first time a significant fee was to be imposed for a CHP officer to be on duty. Historically, San Miguel parade organizers have had very little money to work with and have relied heavily on volunteers; with the Native Sons of the Golden West handling road closure duties. The new costs threatened the continuation of both the Sagebrush and Christmas Parades in San Miguel. The problem was presented to Supervisor Harry Ovitt's office and they were able to identify a different section of the Vehicle Code that spoke more directly to parades. In that section of the code, the use of volunteers is an available option if the County adopted an appropriate enabling resolution. Negotiations on that basis allowed the CHP to reconsider their original position and to agree to San Miguel's continued use of volunteers. To see photos from last year's parade click here. |

The scholarship committee hosted a take-out Homemade Enchilada Fundraiser on April 24th at Lillian Larsen School. Volunteers rolled and sold nearly 800 enchiladas! The Lynda Stamps Community Scholarship was established in 1998 to benefit Lillian Larsen students and to commemorate Lynda Stamps. Lynda worked at Lillian Larsen School for thirteen years and was very active with the students. She died in September 1998 from cancer. Each year the scholarship committee's goal is to fund a scholarship of $1,000 to a graduating senior of Paso Robles High School who is also a graduate of Lillian Larsen School. Paso Robles High School hosts an annual Senior Awards Night boasting over 60 scholarships awarded to graduating students. Please send your tax deductible donation to: Lynda Stamps Community Scholarship PO Box 299 San Miguel, California 93451 |

The new branch of Heritage Oaks Bank in San Miguel celebrated their grand opening with a Week Of Welcome. For the first 50 new checking accounts opened during that time the bank donated $10 per account to an education program at Lillian Larsen School. School Superintendent, Dean Smith, accepted a $500 check at the San Miguel bank branch on Friday, March 14th. Funds will go to the LEAP and Masters At Their Trade after school programs. Funds are especially appreciated at a time when deep budget cuts by the state mean deleting programs, teachers and staff for the upcoming school term. |
