Issue: September 13, 2018
Morning, readers!
Are you ready for some beer? Well, we have a few offerings for you. It's Chico Beer Week! Check out this week's feature package for a walk through the city's up-and-coming booze/beverage/fermentation district, along with a full schedule of events to satisfy your beer-loving taste buds.
In other news: We take a look at the number of homeless students at Chico Unified School District (hint: there are a lot of them!); we check in on Bidwell Presbyterian Church for its 150th birthday; and I got to make beer cheese with Foodie Cafe's head chef, Boyd Atkin—fun stuff!
Until next week,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
