Issue: April 21, 2016
Morning, readers,
I hope you're all handling allergy season better than I am! We here at the
CN&R are excited for the warm up in weather, so much so that we put
together an entire issue dedicated to getting outdoors--and onto two
wheels. This week is our annual Bike Issue, and in celebration of the 35th
year of the Wildflower Century, we put together a nice selection of stories
about that beloved ride. But look beyond the feature stories to other
sections, including Greenways and Healthlines, where we tell other
bicycle-related tales.
In other news: Two events this month highlight the importance of
collaboration when it comes to reaching the local homeless population; Cal
Water is proposing a 30 percent rate increase; and the City Council takes
on street vendor licenses.
One more thing: The CAMMIES are here! Check out our special pull-out
section in the paper this week for a full schedule--or log onto
www.newsreview.com/cammies, where you can also vote for your favorite local
act. Hope to see some of you out on the town this week!
Until next week,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
