To celebrate Martin Luther King Day on the Coastside, a group of volunteers from the Coastside Democrats, Community United Methodist Church and others will be gathering at Bloom Lane in Half Moon Bay to help make life a little easier for Low Income Seniors.
We have about 20 seniors who need help with light gardening, house cleaning, and small repairs.
How can you help? If you can spare a few hours on Monday, January 19th, we can put you to work. We’ll be meeting at 11:00am at the Bloom Lane Community Center to match volunteers with Seniors for a few hours of TLC. The event will run from 11:00am to 3:00pm and each senior will need just a few hours of help. This event will include our usual Monday Brown Bag food distribution, as well as our service effort.
If you can’t attend, but still want to help, we can certainly use donations of cleaning or gardening supplies.
If you are interested in helping, please contact Cheri Parr, who can be reached at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) or via phone at 650-576-8991. Email is best , but if you call and get voicemail, please leave a message.

Congresswoman Jackie Speier in Pacifica, Saturday, Mar 16 2:11pm, Barry Parr — I’m not interested in debating the issue here, but Kevin’s use of the quotes around the word “need” reminded me of these awesome charts from http://fivethirtyeight.com Gallup provided the verbatim responses of the rationales given by people who ...
Congresswoman Jackie Speier in Pacifica, Saturday, Mar 16 1:46pm, Kevin Barron — This should be interesting. I’m guessing she’ll pull her best Ginger Rogers, dancing in synch with the “need” for health care reform, and sashaying skirting around the “way” Obamacare is being pushed by Congress. I’m curious where she REALLY ...
Pacifica examines widening part of Hwy 1 to six lanes, Mar 15 9:49pm, Carl May — No, Route 1 does not become a freeway north of Reina del Mar in Pacifica.
