Charles Spinetta and Family, owners of Charles Spinetta Winery, recently kicked off the holiday season by
donating $25,000 to an assortment of worthy non profit organizations that serve Amador County.
Two fire departments that serve the Shenandoah Valley area received a total of $10,000. These donations will
be used at the discretion of the fire chiefs to purchase items that will make the fire stations more comfortable
for firefighters.
“Firefighters work hard, and they need to feel at home when they’re assigned to a fire station,” said Spinetta.
“More comfortable quarters leads to better morale, and we want to take care of the firefighters who take care of
us.”
The Future Farmers of America chapters in both Amador Hi and Argonaut Hi Schools also received a total of
$10,000 in donations. These donations will purchase an assortment of jackets for FFA members to wear at
public events as well as tools and equipment used in agricultural education.
“FFA covers every aspect of agriculture - from manual labor to advanced science,” said Spinetta. “As
viticulture and agriculture grow in importance to our county, the need for vibrant, modern FFA clubs also
grows.”
Earlier this fall, the California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom received $5,000. The donation paid
registration and lodging expenses for nine Amador County teachers who attended a three day conference
focused on enhancing education with real world agricultural examples.
“Our students learn about math, science, and home economics as they learn about agriculture. Our teachers
enjoy learning about agriculture from experienced farmers, and we all win when our young people
understand more about their food and the people who grow it.”
The Amador Community Foundation assists the Spinetta Family by administering the funds that were
distributed by this project.

Park restoration-Catholic Cemetery Update

As many of you may have heard, last week the Jackson Rancheria park restoration crew began the cleanup efforts at the Catholic Cemetery in Jackson.   Weather permitting, workers will be onsite Monday thru Friday from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. and will continue through winter until completion.  Restoration efforts will be focused on the surrounding areas only and will not include grave sites.  We will ensure to work carefully so not to disrupt the graves of those laid to rest. 

 

It is important to us that we proceed with utmost respect and are asking residents of Amador County who have family buried at the Catholic Cemetery to join us in rejuvenating the area by cleaning up your family’s private plot.  Come see us during work hours and you will be supplied with lunch, beverages, gloves and any tools needed to get the job done.   

 

If you have family members buried at the Catholic Cemetery, but cannot do the work yourself, we would be honored to clean up for you, with your permission. Please contact Suzie Reynolds at the St. Katharine Drexel Catholic Parish at (209) 223-2970 to grant us this approval.

 

For additional information, feel free to contact the park restoration committee at (209) 223-8405.
