Issue: April 20, 2017
Morning, readers!
And a happy 4/20 to you all! Instead of a pot issue this week, however, we're celebrating Earth Day with a special green issue focused on energy.
In other news: In addition to Earth Day, this Saturday also marks the March for Science. You can find out more about the two women spearheading the event locally. Also, Rep. Doug LaMalfa visited Oroville on Monday and it was, to put it lightly, a loud mess. We bring you a new installment of Eye on 45, and Arts Devo plans your weekend.
Till next time,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
PS--Make sure to swing by the Patrick Ranch this Sunday from 2-7 p.m. for the annual CAMMIES Festival, complete with 13 bands on two stages, food trucks, beer for sale and lots more.
