This summer, the Sutter Creek Community Benefit Foundation (SCCBF) and the City of Sutter Creek began the restoration of the historic Sutter Creek Grammar School on Fullen Street. When completed, it will house a community museum, Sutter Creek archives, and will be available to the public for meetings, events and other activities.

The SCCBF is setting out to raise at least $150,000 for the overall restoration. First, they will begin with the removal and replacement of the front porch and stairs, as well as renovation of the steeple, and other public safety issues. The SCCBF is looking to raise at least $50,000 immediately to complete these tasks before winter.

The schoolhouse, now on lease to the City of Sutter Creek and no longer used by the school district, was restored by the Sutter Creek Women’s Club in the 1980s and used as a community center until it was closed to the public. A few years ago, a small group of concerned citizens came together to raise money to save the school. In the past three years they have raised nearly $10,000 by holding three Mardi Gras Party & Cajun Cook-Off fundraisers. Some of these funds have been used to seal the attic. Earlier this year a committee was appointed by the City of Sutter Creek, which includes the original group of concerned citizens, to do a feasibility study, scope of work and a cost analysis for the renovation of the school.

Donors may participate in the renovation of the stairs, windows, doors and other projects through sponsorships and cash donations. “All of us at the Foundation are very passionate about preserving the history of our community, and we know there are many others that would love to be a part of this exciting project,” said Frank Cunha, board chairman for SCCBF. “We are hoping that folks will once again come together to save this wonderful old historic building by making a donation or sponsoring a specific project.” Volunteer labor and materials will also be welcomed when the project is under way.

San Andreas, CA – The leading cause of death for Americans 15-20 years old is motor vehicle collisions, (According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) and the CHP’s goal is to reduce the death rate among teenagers as the result of these collisions.

In order to address this alarming trend, the CHP developed a program called Start Smart.  Start Smart is aimed at helping newly licensed and future licensed teenage drivers understand the critical responsibilities of driving and to understand that accidents do happen, but collisions are 100 percent preventable. 

The primary objective of Start Smart is to provide teens and their parent/guardians with an interactive safe driving awareness class which will illustrate how poor choices behind the wheel of a car can affect the lives of numerous people.

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) San Andreas Office is hosting free teen driver classes at the following location:

Wednesday, September 17^th @ 6:30pm – 9:00pm at Murphys Fire Department

RSVPs must be made via telephone or in person to the San Andreas CHP Office.  Space is limited and at least one parent or guardian is required to attend with their teen.

For more information or to make reservations for the class, please call (209) 754-3541.

***Some vehicle insurance companies have been reported to provide a discounted rate for teen drivers that attend this class.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – As the country readies for Labor Day weekend, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) is reminding motorists to employ lifesaving measures on the roadway. The final three-day weekend of the summer travel season is a national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

In anticipation of the holiday, the CHP is preparing for its annual Labor Day Maximum Enforcement Period (MEP), which begins at 6 p.m. on Friday, August 29, and continues through 11:59 p.m. on Monday, September 2. The Labor Day MEP also coincides with the ongoing national drunk driving enforcement crackdown, “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over.” If your Labor Day celebration involves alcohol, ensure those plans also include a designated driver.

“While many people will spend the long weekend celebrating with their friends and family, the law enforcement community will be on patrol working to keep the highways hazard free,” said CHP Commissioner Joe Farrow. “Our main goal through this high-visibility enforcement effort is to prevent tragedies from occurring.”

Last year during the Labor Day MEP, 49 people were killed in collisions on California roadways, which was a 40 percent increase from the same period in 2012. Tragically, more than 70 percent of those killed in collisions within CHP jurisdiction were not wearing a seat belt.

“Help us make the holiday weekend safe for yourself and everyone by thinking about safety,” added Commissioner Farrow. “Buckle up, drive at a safe and legal speed, avoid distractions, and designate a driver.”

Last year, CHP officers made more than 1,200 arrests for driving under the influence. If you see a suspected drunk driver, call 9-1-1. Be prepared to assist the dispatcher by giving a description of the vehicle, the license plate number, location, and direction of travel. Before you call, be aware of your surroundings, especially streets, highways, directions, city or nearest town within which you are calling. That phone call may help save someone’s life.

The mission of the California Highway Patrol is to provide the highest level of Safety, Service, and Security to the people of California.
