NEW BRIDGE STREET TURNAROUND – We are profoundly grateful to County Sanitation District-1 (CSD-1) for allowing the public to use the turnaround just north of the pumping station. We are also thankful for the amazing cooperation folks from the Department of Transportation, who have completed the Bridge Street roadwork in record time, including removing the old turnaround. Thanks also to the office of Supervisor Roberta MacGlashan and to County Parks, who have facilitated the process. As a result, we now have an unbroken, serene area for the Bluff Donor Plaza.
NEW SIGN ON BRIDGE STREET -- While you’re admiring the roadwork on Bridge Street, come check out the beautiful new 4’ x 6’ sign, which was donated by Images Outdoor. It features a full color image of the Bluff Donor Plaza and has a box for flyers. Thanks to Tracy Shearer for designing the flyer and to Marilyn Pearce and Hedda Smithson for keeping the flyers stocked.
LET’S FINISH THE DONOR PLAZA! – We only need to raise another $15,000 for the Donor Plaza (estimated cost $30,000). If you can help, please make your check payable to the Fair Oaks Recreation Foundation and mail it to:
Marty Maskall, P.O. Box 1765, Fair Oaks, CA 95628
Please write "Bluff Donor Plaza" on your check. All contributions are tax-deductible and are cumulative toward a higher level of recognition. For more information, contact Tracy Shearer at (916) 961-1729 or Marty Maskall at (916) 967-2472 or mmaskall@pacbell.net.
