Sender's Market's Weekly Ad & Grocery Specials Through August 25th
Posted by: thepinetree on 08/20/2020 02:16 PM
Mountain Ranch, CA...In 1950, we started out as a family operation with Erich’s father and mother, August and Freida Sender, in a century-old adobe building. The upstairs was home to the Sender family, and the first floor included groceries, a meat market, a bar, and a small eating place called Opa’s Smokehouse. On Christmas morning in 1968, the old store was destroyed by fire. But in June 1969, Sender’s Market, Inc. was opened. Since that time, there have been many changes, including remodeling, expansion, and the addition of many employees. That’s also when we added the truss plant and purchased Sender’s Market Ace Hardware in Valley Springs. Today, we're still family owned and still working hard to stock everything from pantry essentials to power tools. Whether you've got questions about the perfect cut of meat or the right kind of paint, our helpful, knowledgeable staff has you covered.

Posted by: thepinetree on 08/17/2020 11:28 AM
San Andreas, CA...The Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office would like to announce the reinstallation of the Special Enforcement Team (SET). SET is a unit within the Sheriff’s Office that was formed to heighten police presence, conduct extra enforcement, and utilize problem-oriented/community-oriented policing strategies. General patrol deputies are sometimes unable to conduct extra patrol or proactive enforcement due to consistent call volume during their shift. Having a team specifically able to follow up in high crime areas or in areas with trending crime patterns is very beneficial to the safety of Calaveras County. The Calaveras Sheriff’s Office works as a large team with members assigned to different functions. These teams, in cooperation with information, tips, comprehensive data collection, and general communication from the community lead to a safer Calaveras for all. Below are the results of special enforcement efforts.
