Calaveras High Men's Basketball Coach Kraig Clifton is fighting Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer. Kraig and his family know for certain that they are not in this fight alone. In our area when someone faces one of life's battles they fight with not only family and close friends but in many instances entire communities behind them. Kraig who starred for Sonora High & Columbia College as a player before his Calaveas High Coaching career knows he and his family have Calaveras, Tuolumne counties and more are firmly behind them.
If you couldn't get a ticket to last night's dinner their is a GoFundme page set up and Well Fargo Bank can accept donations in Kraig Clifton's behalf. A few more details on Kraig's fight from the gofundme page are below. If you click any photo above it will take you to their gofundme page...

Cal Waste Recycles With Goats (You Have To Watch The End Of The Video)
Posted by: thepinetree on 01/29/2016 09:03 AM
Arnold, CA...Cal-Waste is on the cutting edge of recycling technology. Sometimes the best way to go forward in recycling is decidedly old school. They rented the 350 + goats to eat the Christmas trees that were collected throughout the areas they service. There were probably 300-400 trees at the ranch. IT’s just another way to recycle the trees and not have to landfill them. We have hopes to next year make it a destination for families to bring their kids and see the process. There is a man that stays with the goats while they are here. He stays to take care of them and also to deliver the kids. There have been 10-15 kids born since they have arrived. As you can see in the video they are fenced off with their mother’s in a little nursery.
