At their Board of Directors meeting in February, members of the Feeney Park Foundation board unanimously voted to keep per player field use fees affordable for local families. The all volunteer board approved a modest 20% increase, from $12.50 per player to $15.00 per player. This was the first increase in five years despite skyrocketing maintenance and upkeep costs, and loss of revenue due to the pandemic, over the same period. The last increase of field use fees before this came in 2019, when use fees were increased from $10.00 to $12.50 to help defray the tremendous costs of maintaining the fields.

Sender’s Market Weekly Ad & Grocery Specials Through April 30th! Shop Local & Save!!
Posted by: thepinetree on 04/24/2024 04:04 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. Click on images below for larger versions
