San Andreas, CA...Winter is over and summer is finally out of storage; it’s time to liberate your lawn chairs and shake out your beach blankets, pack a picnic lunch and get ready for Music in the Parks. Music in the Parks, presented by the Calaveras County Arts Council once again celebrates summer on Wednesdays with 10 admission-free concerts throughout the county. The shows range from blues to bluegrass, rock and roll, and zydeco; the music is high-quality and the bands are popular, but the music series’ charm rests on community vibes. It’s a “little bit of Norman Rockwell,” according to Kathy Mazzaferro, executive director of the Calaveras Arts Council, “when neighbors get together with neighbors, sit out in the grass, dance, talk and listen to music.”

|
Arnold, CA...Our bears have been especially active in Calaveras these days, and it's our duty as citizens to protect them from harm. The most important way to minimize human-bear conflict is to prevent bears' access to trash. Once a bear gets a taste of human garbage it will routinely approach homes in search of food.
