Issue: April 19, 2018
Morning, readers!
Are you ready for a full weekend of fun? I know I am … To get you in the mood, the CN&R puts out its annual Local Music Issue, with profiles on a few big names on the local scene. Plus, pick up a copy of the paper for our special insert with info on the CAMMIES Finale and Awards Show this Sunday.
In other news: The Mechoopda Indian Tribe gets a big win in court, allowing it to move forward with plans for a casino that have been waylaid for over a decade (unless the county appeals, again); after a walkout by three City Council members, talk of selling property to the Jesus Center will see the light of day; and there are interviews with the folks running a music fest and an environmental film festival this weekend.
If that's not enough for ya, there's always more.
Till next time,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
