    Bullipedes & Cattle!

    The first annual Running of the Bullipedes was a big success, as a few hundred runners ran down Sutter Street in costumes, to the delight of the big crowds. Later, the annual cattle drive made its way down Sutter Street after a bit of anticipation. A few dozen steer ended the annual event which included marching bands, floats, and horse-drawn carraiges.

    Got Extra Fruit?

    If you have fruit trees or grow veggies, chances are you have more than enough to go around. Next time you are looking for somewhere to take them, give Twin Lakes Food Bank a call. They get lots of canned food donations but need fresh food as well. They'll even come and pick your trees if you can't!
