    Jerry Ashburn, started in1973 and grew into a full-service rafting experi-ence. Today they haveabout 4,000 rafters comethrough EarthTrek every

    year.Depending on a rafters

    experience and skill level,people are offered differ-

    ent rafting trips separat-ed by river classificationsfrom Class 1 to Class VI.

    Class I and II arefriendlier to self-rescue,Stewart said. Class III-IVare best rafted with a pro-fessional guide.

    Still, for new rafters, aguide is always needed.

    At EarthTrek, we havesix full-time internationalguides, she said. Theseare professional guides

    who work year-round.They travel from Lotus toNew Zealand to CostaRica and other countries,guiding.

    Its a small communityworldwide as guides, shesaid. We have an inter-esting and uniquelifestyle. Its not abouthaving material things.

    professional career. Wedo what we love.

    Nick Wimsett is aninternational river guideat EarthTrek. He has beenguiding for 14 years.

    Guiding international-ly lets us live a life that welove, but we make sacri-fices, Wimsett said. Thisis a lifestyle. We are all one

    big family. We trust each

    we make amazing thingshappen and we create anatmosphere that makespeople happy, positiveand educated.

    He said river guides arealways working for theirnext adventure.

    Ride the river with these experienced guides

    KEN LARSON FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

    Janeen Stewart is a raft guide and EarthTrek Expeditions operations manager.

    How to be safe on the river Wear a life jacket. Dont go to the river alone, always bring a buddy. Never stand up in moving water that is above your

    knees. Dont swim into or near trees or bushes. Do not drink alcohol. Be aware that the river is cold, even in the summer.

    It can drain your energy levels quickly, and you need

    energy to be able to swim or self rescue. During hot weather, drink plenty of water to avoid

    dehydration. Dehydration can deplete your energy. The river can be deceptive. It may look calm, but a

    strong current is not always visible Wear water shoes that are secured to your feet. Do

    not wear flip flops.

    Lucy Santoriello, 8, front, and Jillian Sellarole, 8, create a masterpiece oftulips using acrylics.

    BY MARGARET SNIDER

    FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

    Those looking to beatthe summer heat this

    year can explore anew hobby at The PaintedCork.

    Tucked away at 801

    Sutter St. in Folsom, artistKimberly Godinho pro-vides a unique kind of artinstruction. She presentsclasses that are bothpainting lessons andsocial events, and thatend with each guestgoing home with theirown finished painting.

    All guests need to bringare themselves. For adultclasses, guests can alsobring wine and snacks fortheir breaks. Everythingelse is provided.

    Now Godinho hasadded parties for theunder-21 crowd, in theirown separate studio atthe same location.

    Classes for 7 years oldand up can accommo-date 20 guests, while theadult studio fits 36. God-

    inho hopes to furtherbreak out the age groupsinto family events thatinclude various ages, andseparate classes for ages10-15, and 16-20.

    Its new, Godinhosaid. So Im trying tomold it and make it com-fortable for everybody.

    Deana Sellarole of Fol-som recently booked aparty for her 8-year-old-

    daughter Jillians birthday.We did the tulips,

    Deana Sellarole said.Because that was whatmy daughter chose. Weall did that and I actuallyhave them hanging in myhouse, theyre very cute.

    Godinho said that the

    lesson process is simple.In the studio we do

    acrylic paintings on 14 x18 canvases, Godinhosaid. Acrylic is very for-giving, and it dries veryquickly and so by the endof the two or three hourclass, your painting isready to go home with

    you.Godinho readies every-

    thing ahead of time bychoosing a picture shethinks will work well forthe process.

    I make the paintingmyself first, and I take lotsof notes and photographsalong the way, Godinhosaid. There are a million

    ways to paint a painting,so its just a matter of

    which color are we put-ting on first, which brushstroke are we using first,the time periods of dryingbetween the layers.

    One regular is Tula Mat-

    tingly of Modesto, alongwith her husband Ted.

    Tula had the itch tolearn how to paint. Shelooked around for les-sons, and they all seemedtoo expensive, toolengthy, and besides that,she would be required to

    spend considerable mon-ey on supplies before sheeven knew if she wouldlike it.

    Then she heard of ThePainted Cork in Folsom.

    I thought, now thatsounds like something Id

    like to try, Tula said. Itwas very affordable andyou just walk in. Youdont have to take any-thing, you dont have tobuy anything. You know

    what youre getting upfront, you pay a fee andthats it.

    She convinced her hus-band, Ted, to take her.

    I kind of went kickingand screaming, Ted said.

    Tula said they made aday of it, had breakfast onSutter Street, walkedaround the shops, thenattended the paintingclass.

    Not only did I fall inlove with her concept, butshe is a remarkable, posi-tive person, Tula said.She just makes you feelgood from the time you

    go in the door to the timeyou leave.Now Tula has painted

    14 paintings and Tedalmost as many.

    The first time I went, Isaid, holy moley, Ted said.When you come away

    with a painting at the endof each class and you sayWow, I did that, thats

    what puts chills in you.Godinho has been

    painting since she was 5.She has a Bachelorsdegree in fine arts, andhas taught art for 17

    years.

    S

    urrounded by walls

    full of colorful art, vis-itors can sip wine andlisten to poetry.

    Verse on the Vine isat 6:30 p.m. on the sec-ond Wednesday of eachmonth at The WineGallery, Petra Vineyardstasting room at 627 Sut-ter St., Folsom.

    When the presentationis done, everyone has theoption of five minutes to

    offer their own poetry inthe open mic session.

    The event began inFebruary of this year with

    Yvonne Norgauer, ownerof Petras Vineyard, pro-viding the venue. Thethought of somethingsimilar had been ferment-ing, though, for sometime in the thoughts ofpoet Shawn Aveningo,

    who puts on the event.Many of Aveningos

    friends who live in thearea wanted to hear

    Aveningo and other poetspresent their work, but

    were unable to attendmore distant events.

    Petras Wine Galleryapproached me inDecember, she said.They asked me if I

    would be interested in

    hosting a poetry nightthere once a month. I

    said, Ive actually alwayswanted to.

    Verse on the Vinenow provides Folsom

    with an artistic compo-nent that was missingpreviously. The venueprovides opportunity togather with other poetsand poetry connoisseursin a setting of wine tast-ing and visual art.

    Aveningo kicked off thefirst event in February

    with a sampling of herown poetry. Jovan Mays,part of the championDenver National SlamTeam, happened to bepassing through town and

    joined Aveningo. A poetryslam is a competition in

    which poets read or reciteoriginal work.

    He just wowed the

    crowd, Aveningo said.Those are the kind of

    youthful vibes were alsotrying to attract, so we getthe fun, diversifiedcrowd.

    March featured Sacra-mento Poet Laureate BobStanley, who has beenactive on the California lit-erary scene since the1970s. He ran an autoparts business for many

    years and in 2003 earned a

    masters degree in Englishand creative writing,changed careers, and isnow a professor at Califor-

    nia State University, Sacra-mento.

    I write about peopleand I write about places,its a little bit political,Stanley said. I like tothink its poetry that kindof reveals who I am and

    what I think and I likepeople to like the poetry

    when I read it.He said that it is a com-

    mon misconception thatpoetry has to be difficult,it has to rhyme or it has to

    be complicated.A lot of the good poetswriting in America todayare really accessible andreally fun, Stanley said.You go to a poetry read-ing and you feel rejuvenat-ed, you feel enlightened.

    Telemachos Greanias,of Rescue, will be the fea-tured poet on July 11.

    I think a good chuckleor a good belly laugh is

    healthy, Greanias said.Greanias characterizes

    himself as a retiredshrink. He has beeninvolved for many yearsin human consciousnessresearch and has pub-lished extensively.

    I write about humanity,what we are, in depth, andwhat it means, and how itsurfaces into our everyday

    life, Greanias said.While Aveningo is pas-

    sionate about her poetry,

    she actually also has abusiness, The Poetry Box,associated with her owncustom poetry. Shebecomes acquainted

    with the specific personalsituation that occasions agift, and writes a poemaddressing the need thegift is there to fulfill.

    Aveningo, along withphotographer and graph-ic designer Robert

    Sanders, creates an artis-tic blend of the clientsphotos and Aveningospoetry as gifts.

    Bienvenidos a bordo,or welcome aboard.Blanca Lawton will

    welcome kids to a newweek of summer camp Los Piratas! Or Pirates

    Week, on July 9, and kidscant wait.

    Lawton started herSpanish Immersion pro-gram eight years ago in

    response to her own kidsneed to further theirSpanish skills.

    I created the wholeprogram for the need ofmy own children, shesaid. I knew there wasno other place for mykids to experience a fun

    language program.After friends and

    neighbors encouragedher to teach a program, as

    well, she got started, cre-ating a curriculum that ismusic and movementbased, and most impor-tant, its fun.

    With locations in bothFolsom and Sacramento,the Mexico City nativeknows how hard it is tolearn a language as anadult.

    Im a good example ofnot knowing a language

    and having to learn it asan adult. I really know thestruggle of learning a lan-guage as an older person.Thats why I put so muchlove in to the classes Iteach, Lawton said.And, I get to be a kidagain when Im teaching

    the kids.While Lawton learned

    English basics in school,she said that if you dontuse a language conversa-tionally, you will never

    really get it.I thought, if I was tolearn a second languageas a child, I would wantto learn it with songs andgames kids learn iteasily if it is done in a fun

    way, she said.Many area parents

    agree.Not only do I want for

    my children to be able tocommunicate with their

    grandmother, (who pri-marily speaks Spanish),but I also understandthat being bilingual is avital tool for their future,said Estella Juarez-Pisi,

    who has 4-year-old and7-year-old children in theprogram. I am a regis-tered nurse, and I useSpanish at work almostdaily. I searched all overfor a program where chil-

    dren would only receiveinstruction in Spanish. Inmy research, I found thatpreschool programs onlyoffered small blocks ofinstruction in Spanish. Icould not find a true

    immersion program.That was until I cameacross Blancas school.Her program was exactly

    what I was searching for.An added bonus,

    according to Juarez-Pisi,

    is her children are inter-ested in Spanish culture,as well.

    Lawton teaches kidsages 2-and-a-half and up,both pre-school, andafter-school programs,

    which included moreadvanced, conversationalSpanish. The summercamps are geared towardkids ages 3 to 11. Kids aregrouped according to

    their skills, and the three-hour class consists ofeight to 10 children andone teacher.

    Los Piratas will beginwith lessons on pirateclothing and sea animals,and kids will read Span-ish and role play. Kidsalso create ships and oth-er props.

    We bring all the imag-ination so children can

    experience the fullimmersion of the lan-guage, including musicand lots of movement,Lawton said. Its veryactive, and they doeverything using Span-ish. After one week theylearn vocabulary, andthey lay the foundationfor learning the secondlanguage.

    Lawton knows how

    important it is for kids tolearn a second language.

    The benefit of havingtwo languages at an earlyage is it helps kids withcognitive learning. It

    makes us smarter, really.Kids do better on tests,and have better cognition and it doesnt matter

    what the two languagesare, Lawton said. Ithelps kids reach theirgreatest potential.

    Though the SpanishImmersion summer pro-gram is short, after one

    week, Lawton said kidswill know all the sounds

    of letters, they will beable to count to 100,know their colors, and beable to express what theylike and dont like inSpanish.

    They will be speakingin complete phrases, andit really increases theirconfidence, Lawton said.

    10 JULY 2012 FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINERRECREATION

    BY MATT LONG

    FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

    Growing up in SanRamon, Todd Dry-bread knew every

    year before setting offfireworks on the Fourthof July that hed get agood run in earlier in the

    day.Years later in Folsom,

    Drybread realized thataside from the annualrodeo in the evening there

    wasnt much going on inFolsom. Through hisefforts, Drybread startedthe Folsom FirecrackerFamily Fun Run in 2009.This years event will bethe fourth annual run.

    Growing up in San

    Ramon, the Fourth of Julyrun was huge and the

    whole city would show upand it was a lot of fun,Drybread said. It was agreat thing and I realizednothing was going onhere in Folsom in themorning so I thought arun would be a goodopportunity to bringmore awareness to chari-

    ties, much in the sameway we do for the TurkeyTrot. Its something fun todo as a whole family andthats the purpose, to geteveryone out together.

    The run is held pre-dominately on the biketrails surrounding LakeNatoma, making for ascenic run on top of itbeing good exercise forthe participants.

    This is my favoritecourse, Drybread said.Its beautiful to runalong the trails of LakeNatoma. Its a differentatmosphere than theTurkey Trot. Its warmand people stick aroundafterwards and have a

    good time.The run consistently

    draws about 700 runnersand Drybread hopes withthis years run, being inthe middle of the week,might increase that num-ber a bit. An increase inthe number of runners

    would also increase the

    amount of money raisedfor the beneficiaries.

    About $4,000 was raisedlast year.

    This years beneficiar-ies include The GraceFoundation, P.A.R.T.Y.(Prevent Alcohol andRisk-Related Trauma in

    Participants in the runcan decide where their

    money goes.I think the run is fan-tastic, said Jeanne Warr,director of operations atThe Grace Foundation.With the crush of theSusanville horses wetook on earlier this year,

    weve had 11 foals so farwith four or five left to goand were in the throes ofbeing here 24/7. Everyextra dime we have is

    going to care for thosehorses. The communityssupport means the worldto us because without it

    we wouldnt be able to dowhat we do.

    The Folsom HistoryMuseum is pairingvintage with modern

    in the Then and Nowantique quilt and vintageclothing exhibit.

    The exhibit is from 11to 4 p.m., Tuesday to Sun-day, through Sept. 2 atthe Folsom HistoryMuseum, 823 Sutter St.,

    Folsom.The 32nd annualantique quilt and vintageclothing exhibit will fea-ture pieces and stylesranging from the Civil

    War era to present day.We really want to

    show how the styles haveevolved over the yearsand how the traditionalquilting patterns areinterpreted today, said

    Melissa Pedroza, muse-um education and tourcoordinator.

    A variety of clothingwill also be shownincluding womens andmens vintage acces-sories, womens vintageundergarments, womens

    wedding and prom dress-es from then and nowand a pair of Levi Strauss& Co. mens jeans from1915.

    This exhibit shows

    how the joy and art ofcreating through fabricevolves, but continues,Pedroza said.

    Pedroza said quiltstoday have many differ-ences than quilts previ-ously, which are shown atthe exhibit.

    One big differencebetween quilting thenand now is quilting then

    was all hand stitched,she said. Hand stitchinggave a geometric aspectto the quilting. Now, a lotof quilting is stitched bymachine and with com-puterized longarmmachines. So this quilt-ing is much more fanci-ful.

    All the pieces shown inthe exhibit were donatedto the museum or are on

    loan from a collector.Ann Barrow of Folsom

    has been a quilter for 20years. Her patriotic quiltis on display near theentrance of the exhibit tohighlight the patrioticstyle now compared toone from years ago.

    The creativity in quilt-ing and construction is

    what I appreciate aboutquilting, Barrow said. Ilove patriotic things and I

    am inspired by thattheme. I hang my Red,

    White and Blue quilt in

    my home from Memorialday to Labor day to cele-brate the summer holi-

    days.This year her quilt will

    be displayed as part of

    the exhibit.

    I was honored to bechosen to have my quiltshown at the exhibit,Barrow said. Quiltinghas been a craft of

    women for centuries andhas developed more inthe last 20 years. Peopleare appreciating thecrafts from our ancestorsand expanding on it.Today, much of our cloth-

    ing is not being crafted byhand anymore, so quilt-ing is a way to hold ontothat tradition.

    Warmer days andevenings will bringpeople outdoors,

    and Folsom has a fewnew additions on SutterStreet with outdoor bal-

    cony dining.The Lockdown BrewingCo. tasting room, 718 Sut-ter St. Suite 200, Folsom,is now offeringBeach HutDeli sandwiches, salads,nachos and snacks.

    We were only a beertasting room featuringbeers, handcrafted alesand ciders. Soon wine

    will also be offered, saidAndrew Mering, Lock-

    down co-owner. Now,Beach Hut offers foodtoo. This is a family loca-tion with TVs, pool tables,darts and an outside bal-cony.

    Mering co-owns Lock-down Brewing Co. withhis business partnerRobert Whistler. The tast-ing room opened in Fol-som last November.Beach Hut opened in

    May.This is a great location

    because its located rightin the middle of HistoricDistrict. We are overlook-ing all of Sutter Street,Mering said. We alsooffer live music on Fri-days and special eventsincluding open micnight on Wednesdays.

    We feature a lot of local

    musicians from the area.Hours for both loca-tions are 11 a.m. to 10p.m. on Monday throughThursday, 11 a.m. to mid-night on Friday and Sat-urday, and 11 a.m. to 6p.m. on Sunday.

    For a more culturedand fancy balcony din-ner, Bistro La Petite Franceis now open on SutterStreet directly next door

    to Lockdown.The French bistro at718 Sutter St. in Folsom,offers a true French expe-rience to customers, saidexecutive chef and ownerChristophe Ehrhart.

    We are a family busi-ness and we take time totake care of our cus-tomers, Ehrhart said.We want people to know

    we are here.

    The bistro recentlymoved to Folsoms His-toric District from Gran-ite Bay. Now they can alsooffer customers a view ofSutter Street while dining.But for those who want aquick meal in less than 30minutes, Ehrhart said thisis not the location for

    you.Food is the most

    important part of our cul-

    ture. We want to enjoy lifeand food, he said. InFrance you come to enjoy

    your time and your expe-rience. We encourage youto take your time here.This is not a restaurant tocome to if you are in ahurry. This is an experi-ence. We cook to order.

    He said after the meal,customers will not be

    rushed out either.Ehrhart said customersare encouraged to sitback, chat and drink acoffee or glass of French

    wine after the meal.We have a different

    approach to food here atour restaurant, Ehrhart

    said. We give you theopportunity to discovernew and different things.

    While the balcony isopen for all meals servedat the bistro, Ehrhart sug-gests joining them forSunday brunch this sum-

    mer for the best outdoorweather.Sunday morning

    brunch is a wonderfulatmosphere, he said. Itscool outside and peoplecan just enjoy their foodand the scenery.

    He said one of the topfood lunches offered ishis unique grilled cheesesandwich.

    I cook with produce

    thats in season, he said.So this summer I willoffer the seven cheesesandwich with freshpeaches and lavenderbutter.

    For people still learningabout French culture,Ehrhart said to come withan open mind and lethim teach about Frenchfood and life.

    Its about being adven-

    turous and open to learn-ing about French cul-ture, Ehrhart said. Ourphilosophy is to havepeople understand whatFrench culture is and

    what it means. We live toeat.

    which began June 21 andruns until just after LaborDay.

    We wanted to bringsomething fun to thearea, and music wassomething that we hadntdone before. We started

    jazz. This year it will be a12-week concert series,said Natalie Buerki, mar-keting director for thecenter. The amphithe-ater was designed withsomething like this inmind, and its just anamazing venue.

    The family-friendlyconcerts, which takeplace from 6 to 8 p.m.Thursday nights through-

    out the summer at thecenters Steven Young

    Amphitheater, offer avenue where families canset up blankets andchairs, sit back and relax.

    It started as a concertwhere people came andrelaxed and listened, butnow we have a fullamphitheater and a lot ofpeople dancing, as well as

    relaxing. We have a widerange of visitors of allages, Buerki said. Wedefinitely have a lot offamilies and groups, as

    well as couples and indi-viduals.

    The center is filled withrestaurants and mer-chants who love theexposure that the sum-mer events bring.

    Meet Chef Michael Johnof Back Wine Bar & Bistro

    Michael John is the chef at Back Wine Bar and Bistro located at 25075 Blue RavineRoad, #150 in Folsom. He has a great deal of work experience under some great chefs.Sometimes chefs that have practical work experience can be more creative thanstructured training, says John, adding that he worked under Chef Ron Garrido ofAvalon Restaurant for six years, which I give credit for most of my accomplishments.A chef for 12 years the best thing he says about being a chef is, being able to teachmy cooks new techniques and dishes as well as creating and experimenting with newpreparations and composing new specials. He loves the satis faction of someoneraving about his dishes. We have a lot of regulars at the Back wine Bar & Bistro,and getting them to love something new is a great feeling.His favorite things to make are fresh pasta and gnocchi. They are extremelyversatile ingredients, a blank canvas if you will, to experiment with a myriad of

    ingredients. Plus its fun getting elbows deep in flour and egg, he adds.The most challenging part of his job is staying inspired through the slow timesof the year and keeping all the creative wheels turning.Being a chef and having two wonderful small children keeps him very busy

    with little time for himself. I do enjoy painting and spending time out innature to relax and decompress.

    27/32

    BY KEN LARSON

    FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

    Day tripping is a spe-cialty of mine andevery weekend I am

    busy exploring our region.Judging by the calls of ourreaders, these columnsserve as ideas and inspira-tion for people to pack upa picnic lunch and headout for another adventure.This month I am taking

    you to San Francisco todiscover three of ourNational Parks, locatedless than two hours awayfrom Folsom Lake.

    The Golden Gate Bridgerecently celebrated its75th anniversary andmakes the perfect backdrop to visit three of theNational Parks in the SanFrancisco area. I havehiked and photographed

    over 120 of our NationalParks and the areasaround the Golden Gatebridge have incrediblehistorical significance.

    According to theNational Park Servicebrochure, the natural his-tory of the Presidio is a sto-ry both of change andconstancy. The lands atthe Golden Gate wereforged over millennia by

    powerful geological eventsand shaped by wind andfog. Grasslands, sanddunes, and woodland

    were rimmed with saltwa-ter marshes, lakes, and

    creeks. The wonderful

    thing about The Presidio,despite being minutesaway from skyscrapersand urban development,it is virtually an island pre-served by time. Much ofthis status to keep it a his-torical site is due to thefact that it was an Armypost for many years. Thenatural beauty is every-

    where as it is home to over350 species of birds, mam-mals, reptiles, insects andfish.

    In 1994, the Presidiobecame a national parksite and its lands are pre-served.

    Another incredible areajust across the bay isPoint Bonita Lighthouse,

    which has aided shipsnavigating these watersfor more then 150 years.

    With the discovery ofgold in 1848, San Francis-co became the main portof these gold seekersfrom around the world.The lighthouse, which isbeing renovated, is thethird lighthouse on the

    West Coast and was com-pleted in 1855. The areanear Point Bonita is oneof the regions gems.

    With the historic bridge

    looming in the back-ground, another NationalPark site just across thebay is Fort Baker. It sits on335 acres and is at thenorth side of the bridge.

    This beautiful historic

    area includes over twodozen military buildingsdating from the early1900s. From the lushgreen hillsides to therocky shorelines, this areacontains numerous habi-tat and offers an exten-sive trail system.

    Fort Baker is named forEdward Baker, a formerU.S. Senator from Oregon

    who was active in 1850sCalifornia politics. He waskilled leading a regimentof Union troops in the Civ-il War. He is buried in theSan Francisco NationalCemetery at the Presidio.

    There is so much toenjoy around the GoldenGate Bridge but theseNational Parks are a mustif you enjoy beauty andhistory.

    Publishers note: Lastmonth in the Entertainerwe featured the incrediblehike up Horsetail Falls, astory that also ran in the 50Things To Do. I gatheredsome of the information

    from the National Forestwebsite and also used a

    great deal of material froma website belonging toLeon Turnbull Photogra-

    phy, not realizing this sitewas not associated withthe National Forest site. Iapologize for using thematerial without givinghis site credit.
