Copperopolis, CA...In 1895 James A. Tower was only 16 years old when, using barbed wire fencing, he strung the first telephone line for what was to become The Calaveras Telephone Company. As demands for the telephone service increased, the young Mr. Tower found it necessary to establish a central office in the small community of Felix near the town of Copperopolis. Then in 1899, Mr. Tower, now 20 years old, negotiated an agreement with Sunset Telephone Company that would connect his subscribers by telephone with the rest of the world.

Posted by: thepinetree on 03/17/2017 09:10 AM
Camp Connell, CA...I want to thank all those who have come into the store to welcome me. While I will try to remember all of your names, I may need a reminder (I've always been bad with remembering names).There is however one name that will not be forgotten, and that name is Bobby Abbott. In the history of Camp Connell, there is no one person that deserves more admiration, respect and our thanks! Bobby is the reason Camp Connell exists today. He has kept Camp Connell from being buried with snow over the years with his snowplow business, and has helped make us whole with his summertime business doing excavations. And more than anyone Bobby has always been there, for my parent's, for my sister, and for myself; THANK YOU BOBBY ABBOTT! You are a great man! In honor of Bobby Abbott, all locals (address Camp Connell zip code of 95223) will receive a 10% discount till the end of April 2017 (does not apply to tobacco, alcohol, or gasoline) And one last note - Camp Connell now has Happy Hour from 4pm to 7pm everyday and we will have Johhny Arrow here for Live Music on Friday Night 3/24. See you there! Best Regards, Dan Tulipani

Hey Good People!! Nickolay Dodov Slopestyle Competition Tomorrow
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/17/2017 01:53 PM
Bear Valley, CA....Hey Good People! Join us for the 4th annual Nickolay Dodov Slopestyle Competition! Registration starts at 9 AM in the Sun Room with practice runs beginning at 10 AM. Competition begins at 11 AM. Mostly Sunny today with a high of 57F on tap and ENE winds from 7-10mph. A Low pressure trough will arrive Saturday and bring a return of mixed precipitation which will start out as a mix of rain/snow with snow levels at or above 7500' through Sunday. As the model runs continue to disagree nailing down snowfall totals at this is out of the mix but currently the bulk of snowfall could occur North of I-80 with snow levels down into the 4500' range by Tuesday. At this point it's a wait and see so keep checking in and I'll have more info by Sunday. The lower Mtn will open around 11am as a conditions based time frame/opening & closing is driving that forward. Abundant snowfall this season has set us up for great spring conditions and having wrote that, we're extending our season for another week! April 23rd is now our official closing date so if you are thinking of coming up for your spring break we'll be open as most other Nor/Central Cal resorts will be closing a week earlier. Come up to Bear Valley and experience our local "Pure Mtn Fun" ethos and stay tuned..........
