    Cats is the only produc-tion in North Americasanctioned by AndrewLloyd Webber.

    With original directionby Trevor Nunn and cho-reography by GillianLynne, this is the CATS

    credited with the Britishinvasion of Broadway.The show celebrated its30th anniversary on May11, 2011, holding its placeas the longest continu-ously touring Broadwaymusical in history.

    According to Dave

    Webb, Three Stages mar-keting consultant, newfor the 2011-2012 season

    over 8.5 million audiencemembers later, Cats isstill one of Americas mostloved family musicals.

    Cats is iconic Broad-way, but also at its roots it

    is based in literature the poetry of T.S. Eliot,said Dave Pier, ThreeStages executive direc-tor. I think the showspopularity is a reflectionof its memorable tunesand cool staging, as wellas the amazing make-up,costumes and dancemovement that trans-form the cast intofelines. It probably also

    doesnt hurt that there areso many cat lovers in our

    world today perhapsthere will someday alsobe a musical Dogs.

    Cats performs at 3:30and 8 p.m. on Friday,

    April 6, and at 11 a.m.,3:30 p.m., 8 p.m. on Sat-urday, April 7. Tickets are$39 to $59, with premiumseats for $69.

    The Color PurpleContinuing with a

    Broadway theme, ThreeStages will also bring lightto the national tour of theBroadway play, The Col-or Purple.

    It was 30 years ago thisyear that The Color Pur-ple, Alice Walkers pow-erful novel, was originallypublished. It won the

    Pulitzer Prize and theNational Book Award forfiction; and went on to beadapted into a film bySteven Spielberg.

    As a Broadway produc-tion, originally producedby Oprah Winfrey andQuincy Jones, the musi-cal ran for two years and

    was nominated for 11Tony Awards.

    The national tour of

    that Broadway play, TheColor Purple comes toThree Stages at FolsomCollege for three per-formances next month.

    The Color Purple issuch a powerful, upliftingpiece of musical theater,Pier said. It translates

    beautifully into music,into stagecraft, into theBroadway motif and

    will be a special experi-ence in the intimacy ofThree Stages.

    According to Webb, partof the musicals power isbuilt from the epic scopeof the original work. TheColor Purple takes placeduring a 40-year period. Itbegins in 1911 as youngsisters Celie and Nettieplay a hand-clappinggame in a field. They leavetheir game, and join theresidents of their ruralGeorgia community,heading to church onSunday morning. Celie,

    14, is pregnant with hersecond child. The two sis-ters are separated by theircruel father; Nettie vowsto write to Celie, and onlydeath will keep her fromit.

    The Color Purple willperform at 7:30 p.m. on

    April 10-12 at ThreeStages. Tickets are $39 to$59, with premium seatsavailable for $69.

    Early surveying of thecommunity prior to theopening of the ThreeStages indicated thatBroadway shows were thehighest area of interest forour community, and ourfirst year of operations hasshown this to be the case,

    Pier said.For (our) grandopening, we had five sold-out performances of thenational tour of A ChorusLine, and this past fallboth STOMP and Spa-malot sold out quickly. Forthis spring, we scheduledthe national tours ofBLAST! and A Color Pur-ple, and then we were ableto add five performancesof Cats, which will alsolikely sell out.

    Pier said he is alreadyplanning next season.

    Im currently workingto book our Broadwayshows for next year, and Ithink people will bepleased with the offer-

    ings, Pier said. In addi-tion to the national tours,we also have El DoradoMusical Theatre perform-ing four musicals a year atThree Stages these fea-ture amazing young localtalent and are a great val-ue (see story on page A8).Three Stages is an excel-lent place to see Broad-

    way shows and best ofall, its only minutes from

    your house, parking iseasy, and there are lots ofgreat restaurants nearbyto choose from.

    FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

    Folsom isnt usually atown synonymous

    with movie pre-mieres, but this monththe town joins the ranksof New York, Los Angelesand Boston.

    On March 30, and run-ning through the fist

    week of April, LosingControl premieres atCinemaWest Palladio 16theatre in Folsom. Show

    times are 11:30 a.m., 1:50p.m., 4:10 p.m., 6:30 p.m.and 9 p.m.

    First-time feature film-maker Valerie Weiss wroteand directed the inde-pendent romantic comedy.

    Losing Control is thefirst film to come out ofthe Catalyst Workshop atthe American Film Insti-tute (AFI) a U.S.Department of Defense-

    backed program designed

    to help scientists translatetheir work into stories forfilm, television and newmedia. Weiss was accept-ed into AFIs first Catalyst

    Workshop class in 2005and used the opportunityto develop her script andblend the practical ele-ments of science with theart of storytelling.

    According to HouseLights Media, the films

    marketing company anddistributor, it is the onlymovie ever shot on theHarvard campus.

    Considering Weiss wasonce a Ph.D. candidate at

    the school, its no wonderthe film received supportfrom the institution ofhigher learning.

    Weiss took a momentby phone recently to

    speak with the Telegraph.She said she loves 1980s

    romantic comedies suchas When Harry Met Sal-ly.

    She said showing themovie in towns off thenormal path for majorpremieres makes sense.

    I think its great, Weisssaid. Our movie hasplayed in about 30 filmfestivals across the coun-try and weve played inthe big cities. Audiences

    in smaller cities are freerwith their reactions. Incities like that, people arereal people and they justhave fun watching themovie.

    She said the idea cameto her while she was

    working on her Ph.D. atHarvard Medical School.

    I have a crazy back-ground because I used tobe a scientist. Movie

    making is like trial anderror. I came up with this

    idea at graduate school atHarvard, she said. Any-thing that made melaugh, I took notes on. I wanted to take my expe-riences and share thembecause not everyonegets to see that world.

    Many of the charactersin the movie are inspiredby real people from herdays at Harvard, accord-ing to Weiss.

    I wrote this moviebased on what reallytouched me as my timeas a scientist, she said. Ireverse engineered it, if

    you will, and put anec-dotes into the movie.

    Once again, theregion abounds

    with local theatricalofferings in April.

    El Dorado MusicalTheatre

    The local talent in thisyouth group shines andwhen they put on Okla-homa, expect to be daz-

    zled. Ive been veryimpressed by their effortslately so Im sure this willbe one more great pro-duction.

    It runs April 20-May 6on the main stage atThree Stages at FolsomLake College, 10 CollegeParkway, Folsom.

    Debbie Wilson, chore-ographer and director ofthe show, said its alwaysa scramble to put on thespring show because itcomes so close on theheels of their last show,42nd Street, which just

    wrapped March 4.We dont have a lot of

    time to put this showtogether, Wilson saidduring the second weekof rehearsals in mid-March. Between our

    Encore show and thisspring show, its alwaystight, but its OK. Wemake it work.

    Wilson is very familiarwith Oklahoma, thefirst play penned by thecollaboration of Rodgersand Hammerstein thatpremiered on BroadwayMarch 31, 1943.

    Ive done Oklahomamany times, she said.

    The fist time I choreo-graphed this show was in1975. Rick (Wilson), mybrother, was my DreamCurly. In this go around,his son (Andrew) is myDream Curly. This is thefirst time Ive directedand choreographed it. I

    just love it.If people arent familiarwith the show, or havenever seen an EDMT pro-duction, sit back andhave fun.

    They should expect agreat story and a lot ofhoopin and hollerin andgreat fun numbers in it,

    Wilson said. Theyshould expect some greatdancing and a beautiful

    love story.She said Oklahoma is

    a great date play.I think it appeals to

    both sexes, she said. Itssuch a classic and wedont do a ton of those. Itspart of our cultural litera-cy in America. The showchanged the face of

    American musical the-ater because it was thefist time that dance andsong also propelled theplot. Before, they hadbeen more separate fromeach other. This time itdrives it forward. There isalso a dream ballet they had not used dancein this way before whenits used as a psychologi-cal examination of thecharacter. Thats why somany shows had dream

    ballets after Oklahoma.Heather Clark, one ofthe leads playing Ado

    Annie Carnes, saidrehearsals are going pret-ty well, but there is still along way to go.

    Im enjoying them,she said. I was never abig fan of the show beforeI auditioned for it. Afterdoing call-backs andstuff, Im going to enjoy

    (Oklahoma) and appre-ciate it.

    The 20-year-old Fol-som Lake College studentsaid she is focusing onher education for nowand isnt planning to doany acting or theater afterschool.

    To all comedy lovers,prepare to seehumor taken to a

    whole new level.When Falcons Eye The-

    atre at Folsom Lake Col-lege opens their newshow, The King Stag,theater lovers wont know

    what hit them.Thats because Folsom

    Lake Colleges TheatreArts Professor and Pro-

    ducing Artistic Director,David Harris, is bringingan unusual form, com-media dellarte, to thestage.

    While some theaterlovers may not be famil-iar with the term, the the-ater style is anything butnew.

    Originally developed inItaly, the style includes

    masks, and each charac-ter represents an emo-

    tion like sadness, gaiety,confusion, or even mock-ery an over-the-topstyle that includes mad-cap mayhem and generalsilliness.

    The theatrical style is aspecial challenge foractors because of itsphysicality and humor.Thats why Harris hiredDirector Jamie VanCamp, whom he said is a

    master of commedia aswell as an amazing actor.

    Van Camp spent yearsstudying both commediaat a small school in thefar reaches of Arcata inNorthern California, andmime, acrobatics andensemble-based theaterin Vancouver.

    I have a Masters ofFine Arts from Dellarte

    International, where Istudied melodrama,clowning and directing,

    Van Camp said. I wasalways inspired by Char-lie Chaplin, and myfriends and I were alwaysgoofing, always lookingfor a reason to goof offand have lots of fun

    growing up.Van Camp said com-

    media dellarte translatesto comedy of the arts, orthe human comedy.

    The characters reallyinteract with the audi-ence. Its about compet-ing to get the audience tolaugh, he said. Its more

    about the audience andperformers interacting

    with each other, thanabout the story itself.But of course, there is a

    story to be told, and thestory, written by CarloGozzi, and adapted byShelley Berc and AndreiBelgrader, is a story thatcan be described as amagical fantasy, wheremen become creaturesand creatures becomemen. The show will

    include deceit, lies, magicand murder a sort of18th Century fairy tale but with a little dark edgi-ness.

    Students at FolsomLake College will act outthe comedy.

    The performers havebeen working hard theyre really going for it.The art form is very new

    to this area, Van Campsaid. Ive been a free-

    lance director in Toronto,Norway and elsewhere,but I am so excited todirect something here,

    where I grew up.Harris is also excited to

    bring the art form to stu-dents and the communi-ty.

    Commedia is one ofthe most importantforms it gives the clas-sic clownish style very

    exaggerated movements,and great characteriza-tion, Harris said. Its abeautiful form. Theactors work with stylizedmasks, and the show hasthe kind of humor that

    we dont often allow our-selves to experience. Anover-the-top, hugelyexaggerated style. Theshow is hilarious.

    Melted cheese,ground beef,parmesan cheese

    and a unique blend of fla-vorful spices says only

    one thing JimboysTacos.

    The corporate-ownedstore is reaching out tothe community throughsupport and activities

    with a new look and atti-tude starting in Folsom.

    We want to have com-munity involvement,said Karen KnudsonFreeman, Jimboys presi-dent. Folsom is a tight

    community and we wantto be able to work withour community. We areall here together anddepend on each other, so

    we want to include thecommunity, groups andother businesses. We areinvolved in the Folsomchamber and becomingmore involved.

    The restaurant has

    been in Folsom since themid-1990s.Its always been almost

    unnoticeable, Freemansaid. So in that vital area,

    we thought it would be agreat test store with a newlook, new technology andmore ... involvement. Weare (testing) some differ-ent ideas and draw atten-tion to the quality of ourfood to make Jimboys the

    best it can be.She said the quality of

    ingredients is very high,so they wanted to mar-ry that high quality withtheir look.

    This test store is tobring attention to Jim-boys and the attention to

    the quality of our food,Freeman said.

    The history of Jimboysdates back to Freemanschildhood. Freeman, 54,of El Dorado Hills, is thedaughter of Jimboys

    founder James Knudsonand Margaret MargoKnudson, 91. Jamespassed away last year andlived to be 91 years old.

    My mother and fatherowned several restau-rants before Jimboys,she said. One night afriend invited them overfor traditional tacos attheir house. So, my fatherbeing a restaurant owner,

    saw the universal poten-tial of tacos.

    She said he then got towork creating a taco thattasted good to him,

    which didnt necessarilyfollow traditional recipes.

    He had a very goodpallet and used hisknowledge of spices andflavors to make thisunique taco, she said.

    He has a Norwegianbackground. So he didnttry to make an authentictaco, just something thattasted good to him.

    She explained that hefirst had trouble sellinghis tacos. He literallyparked a trailer outsideand hoped for the best.Then eventually, he wroteJimboys Spanish Tacoson the trailer. Soon, busi-

    ness picked up.James parked his taco

    trailer in Kings Beach LakeTahoe. After meeting JoeKing, beach owner, Kingbuilt James a permanentlocation in Kings Beach tosell tacos during the sum-mer seasons. More recipes

    were also added to theJimboys menu.

    It was an interestingchildhood because we

    would always live inTahoe during the sum-mers to run the restau-

    rant, Freeman said. Wealso had frequent famousvisitors including mem-bers of the Rat Pack.

    She said long hours anda strong work ethic werealways steady in theirfamily business though.

    I can remember mymother waking up veryearly to prepare the food,from 7 a.m. to midnight,

    with one break in the

    middle of the day, shesaid. And my dad did thesame thing everyday.

    In the 1960s, Jamesopened a restaurant inSacramento.

    Today we have 41 Jim-boys Tacos in Sacramen-to and the surroundingareas, Freeman said.We also have some inReno, Sparks and Carson

    City, Nev.Freeman said morerestaurants are planned.

    We want to expand,nationally and interna-tionally, we have a lot ofinterest, she said. We areon an aggressive scheduleat this point in having thishappen within the next

    year or two. We are defi-nitely ready to expandand we are very excited.

    Still, the family restau-rant will remember itsroots.

    We have a very uniquehistory, not many Norwe-gians open a successfulMexican restaurant, Free-man said. So we are thrilled and I still love our tacos.

    Meet Sarah Boudjakdji of Willow Caf & Sweeteryarah Boudjakdji has been cooking for as long as I can remember

    and have been working in restaurants for years. Sarah is Chef/Owner of Willow Caf & Sweetery located at 13405 Folsom Blvd.Sarah has been on the job here in Folsom for only two months andsays the whole creative process, playing around with textures,

    flavors and colors to come up with something people will like. Isthe best thing about being a chef. Cooking for me is my creativeoutlet. She goes on to say she likes being able to access some of thebest ingredients, including grass-fed beef, free-range organic eggsand cage-free chickens.

    One of her favorite things to do at Willow Caf & Sweetery is toexperiment with gluten-free recipes. It is possible to be gluten free and still eat amazing baked goods,so I try my best to get it right so people dont have to feel like they are missing out.

    For Sarah the most challenging part of the job is the technical, behind the scenes parts of the job.Things like ordering, inventory, scheduling, anything that takes me out of the kitchen and out of thatflow is hard. My heart is in the kitchen and being able to get to know my guests.

    As far as interests or hobbies Sarah admits that she doesnt have much time for anything else thesedays. She also has two young sons so the new restaurant and the kids keep her plenty busy.

    Warm spring-like

    weather has somethinking picnics

    and Pinot Grigio andCielo Estate is just theplace for an afternoon of

    wine and fun.The Shingle Springs

    winery, owned by BillManson and Carrie Nave-Manson, encompasses 41vine-filled acres; a

    foothills paradise, locatedjust minutes from High-way 50 and Green ValleyRoad.

    According to Manson,people visit the estate forboth the wine and theatmosphere.

    We had people play-

    ing Frisbee on the lawninto the afternoon on Fri-day, he said.

    The property was

    developed by a realvisionary in the 90s,according to Manson.Originally 110 acres, thetwo purchased the prop-erty a piece of land thatthey grew to love, as theypassed on their wayhome each day - just a

    half mile away.We had been driving

    past the property foreight years, and we just

    fell in love with it. Whenthe previous ownerdecided to sell, we

    community, too.With vineyards already

    in existence, the estatefeatures 22 acres of vines,

    with 22 different varietals,mostly focusing on Italy

    and the Rhone Valley.Our problem is that

    we havent met too manygrapes that we didntlike, Manson said.

    According to Manson,recent warm weather ismaking the vines want togrow, and the couple islooking forward to a latespring release of five newestate wines.

    Until then, Cielo offersplenty of nectar of theGods, in both reds and

    whites, with the CabernetFranc, a Yolo 2009, a topseller.

    The Cabernet Franc isa real favorite also theCabernet SavignonReserve, said SuzieBertram, who mans thetasting room. And every-body loves the (sparkling

    wine).Its easy to see why the

    Cabernet Franc is a fanfavorite. With hints of vio-lets, blueberries and can-died fruit, the wine fin-ishes with a small spurt ofdelicious flavor.

    The Pinot Grigio, a Sier-

    ra Foothills 2010, is deli-cious, and perfect for a

    warm spring picnic, aswell. Tangerine and citrusnotes create a subtle flavorthat refreshes beautifully.

    The estate is gearing upfor warm weather.

    We already have 15weddings booked for theseason, Manson said.

    And Friday night con-certs will start aroundMemorial Day. We have abeautiful outdoor setting

    with a gazebo for wed-dings, and we use our

    Victorian home on theproperty for private din-ners and as a weddingstaging area.

    Manson and Nave-Manson have created anart gallery in their tasting

    room, which featuresthree artists a painter, aphotographer and aglassworks artist, andthey plan to install a brewpub in the spring, as well,

    with master artisan brew-er, Andrew Van Zant.

    According to Manson,

    a typical spring weekendwill bring two kinds ofpeople out the winelovers, and the folks whoare looking for a pictur-esque day trip.

    People are cominghere to sit at the picnictables, to have theirlunch, its a destinationfor people, he said.

    Cielo will offer coldcuts and sandwiches forpurchase, as well assodas, water and snacksthis spring.

    We are a very kid-friendly winery, and apet-friendly winery,Manson said. Familiescan play on the lawns,and roam the vineyards ifthey would like.

    Contact the winery for

    information on upcom-ing events like Easter

    weekend brunch, ElDorado Winery Associa-tions Passport Weekend,and the Fork and Corkevent, which will pair

    wines with grilled foodsand sauces.

    State Historic Park, locat-ed only eight miles east ofJackson on Highway 88 inthe Sierra Nevadafoothills. Its really closeand an adventure for

    people of all ages becauseit includes a museum,hiking trails, and interest-ing collections.

    The park is named aftera great outcropping ofmarbleized limestone

    with some 1,185 mortarholes, which is the largestcollection of bedrockmortars in North Ameri-ca, according to park offi-cials.

    Nestled in a little valleyfilled with quiet mead-ows, about 2400 feetabove sea level, the parkalso contains large valleyoak trees. These onceprovided the Miwok peo-ples ample supplies ofacorns.

    Chawse is the Miwokword for grinding rock.

    On this rock, NativeAmericans ground acornsand other seeds intomeal, slowly forming thecup shaped depressionsin the stone that can stillbe seen today. Along withthe mortar holes, themain grinding rock with-in the park also features anumber of decorativecarvings, known as petro-glyphs, as well as circles,spoked wheels, animaland human tracks, and

    wavy lines.Some of these carvings

    are thought to be as old as3,000 years. This associa-tion of rock art andbedrock mortar pits isunique in California andhas the only knownoccurrence of mortarsintentionally decorated

    with petroglyphs.But the historic rock is

    only one part of an excit-ing visit to the historicpark.

    free light rail passes forthat day, which we giveout to Historic Districtmerchants beginning

    April 1, Berry said.The Antique Answer

    Man, Gary Cox of ElkGrove, will be on handnear the Folsom HistoryMuseum to offer verbal

    appraisals of items for afee of $7.He can also arrange for

    a formal appraisal of indi-vidual items or estates.

    Among the moreunusual items hes seenare some of the medicalquackery pieces.

    One of the things theydid was make things that had radium inthem, Cox said. Very

    strong amounts of radi-um in some cases andthey were for your goodhealth.

    At one appraisal eventhe had one of these radi-um health aids broughtto him to identify.

    You would have to bevery careful with it, Coxsaid, because it would beso highly radioactive thatif it was ever examined byofficials theyd confiscateit from you.

    Every once in a whilesomething historicallyimportant turns up.

    Cox tells of a silversnuff box, a family piece,

    which carried an engrav-

    ing of the name of a cap-tain from the fire depart-ment in New York, retir-ing to go into the Civil

    War as a colonel.So you have this little

    snuff box that ordinarilywithout any engravingwould be maybe $50 to$100, Cox said. (With

    the engraving) you sud-denly had a historicallyimportant piece, worth$3,000 to $4,000.

    People love antiquesfor varying reasons, andBerry feels that itdepends somewhat onthe age group.

    With the BabyBoomers, I think thatthere is a huge kind offeel-good, comfort-food,

    nostalgia kind of a thingthat happens, Berry said.

    The younger genera-tion is looking more, gen-erally speaking, for thingsthat are exciting andunique to use for decora-tions.

    There are people, too,who have a passion forcollecting and they enjoysearching for it, Berrysaid. They dont find it allthe time, but the thrill ofthe hunt ... appeals topeople.

    There are those, Berrysaid, who are buying forthe value, looking for bar-gains.

    They are hoping to buy

    something for $5 that isreally worth $50 or $100.

    Theyre either buyingit for their own collec-tions or sometimestheyre buying it becausethey want to resell it,Berry said. Theyre get-ting a good deal. Its fairgame if its for sale.

    Vendors enjoy the fair,too.Lorraine Hannigan, of

    Roseville, will set up hershop, Sweet Lorraines,

    with vintage costumejewelry, bringing in atleast six cases of jewelry.Shell set up nine or 10tables.

    Its nice meeting peo-ple, its a lot of fun, Han-nigan said. You meet all

    the other sellers, too.There are as many rea-

    sons to come as there arepeople.

    Whats interesting isthe age group its a real-ly wide range at a fair likethis, Berry said. You seegreat-grandma walkingarm-in-arm with hergranddaughter, and peo-ple who are getting excit-ed about collecting some-thing. It isnt always thesame items, but its kind ofnice to be able to see sev-eral generations of peopleall out there having fun.

    FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

    Every spring RunRocklin cultureseems to embrace

    the city with bright ban-ners, team bonding andhundreds of folks train-ing on tree-lined streets.

    Nine years ago theevent got a running startduring a conversation

    between Rocklin neigh-bors who wanted topound the ground ontheir own city streets

    while breaking ground forcommunity fundraising.

    Kate Hay and Gary Daytook their grassrootseffort from a sidewalkchat to a Rocklin CityCouncil meeting in 2003.

    Rocklins Run for theGold the original name was created as afundraiser to save St.Marys Church in down-town Rocklin, said raceco-founder Kate Hay. Myneighbor Gary Day and Ithought that Rocklinneeded a run we were

    both runners andthought that a St. PatricksDay theme would be fun,plus it was original to havea run so early in the year.

    Planning a race thatput Rocklin on the mapfor area runners meantproviding a certifiedcourse with professionaltiming, plenty of race dayvolunteers and a solid

    marketing effort.It was very stressful for

    the committee to coordi-nate an event in four tofive months ... especially

    when it grew so large thatwe had to search for a newtiming company at thelast minute, rememberedHay, who served as thefirst race director. We had945 participants that first

    year (2004), which in therunning event world wasclassified as a large event.

    I formed a committeeof very experienced run-ners, recreation profes-sionals, track coachesand passionate commu-nity supporters, plus a

    whole lot of goodfriends, she continued.

    With Hays leadership,Gary Days organizationalskills and Rocklin residentLarry Osborne, owner ofElephant Ideas, as thetitle sponsor, Run for theGold 2004 raised $8,000.

    Funds allowed the relo-cation of Saint Marys ofthe Assumption CatholicChurch to its currenthome in Heritage Park.

    Year two of Run for theGold raised $12,000 forRocklin Friends of theLibrary. Larry Osborneaccepted the role of racedirector in year three andpoured his heart and soulinto the idea of a destina-tion run that beckoned

    runners from the greaterPlacer County area.

    I changed its namefrom Rocklin Run for theGold to Run Rocklin,said Osborne, who didnt

    want an event tied to aholiday, thus forcing atheme every year.

    In addition, the FleetFeet store in Sacramentohad started the Sham-rockn Half Marathon so

    we were going to be com-peting against a power-house situation, he said.I also wanted an eventthat was themed aroundRocklin. If you live inRocklin, lets run Rocklin.If you dont live in Rock-lin, lets come to Rocklinand run.

    In year three, Osbornealso planned to spreadrace proceeds betweenthe Rocklin Police andFire Departments andRocklin schools.

    Osborne has sincemodeled Run Rocklininto an event to benefitthe Matt Redding Memo-rial Scholarship Founda-tion in honor of fallen

    Rocklin Police OfficerMatt Redding.

    I wanted somethingpeople could relate tolocally, said Osborne.This is something localpeople can get their armsaround and I see no rea-son to change the benefi-ciary every year. Its likethe logo on our shirt. Itsgrown a little bit from yearto year, but essentially ithasnt changed. It all fits.

    Rocklin High Schoolsenior Ryan McCormick

    will run his fourth RunRocklin on April 15.

    The 12K is a nice breakfrom the usual 5K and10K race runners do,

    shared McCormick. Itsthe same distance as theBay to Breakers, so that isnice. I also enjoy thecourse. It goes throughmy favorite streets to runon, namely Rawhide andClover Valley Road.

    Hay is happy her com-munity event has growninto a regional run underOsbornes leadership,

    raising more than$48,000 to date for theMatt Redding MemorialScholarship Foundation.

    Community events,such as Run Rocklin,

    which are tirelessly coor-dinated and supportedby community membersand local businesses, giveus so much more than

    just a single day event,Hay said. These com-munity events give usshared experiences, anopportunity to volunteerand give back, and a des-tination to gather withfriends and family, whichin turn builds a strongand vibrant community.

    See classic LooneyTunes charactersthrough original art-

    work collections at oneFolsom gallery.

    The next exhibit at theGallery at 48 Natoma inFolsom, From Hare toEternity: the Enduring Artof Warner Brothers Ani-mation, features workfrom the private collectionof Eric Calande. Theexhibit is on displaythrough May 10.

    Famous Looney Tunescharacters such as BugsBunny, Daffy Duck,

    Yosemite Sam, ElmerFudd, Porky Pig, TweetyBird and others will beincluded.

    Whats truly amazingabout animation art isthat it was not created

    with the intention to sur-vive, Calande said. The

    art needed to last onlylong enough to be pho-

    tographed beneath thecamera. The finished car-

    toon was considered thereal work of art. Lucky forus, 60 plus years later, oldstashes of vintage anima-tion art are still being dis-covered intact.

    According to CindyAbraham, gallery coordi-nator, production art fromthe Warner Studios is par-ticularly special because atremendous amount ofthe original productionartwork was destroyed.

    After decades of makingcartoons, the Warner

    Brothers warehouse wasbecoming overcrowded

    with production art andthe studio wanted tomake more effective useof the space. This wasback in the late 1960s

    when it was thought theproduction artwork fromthese cartoons had little orno value.

    Consequently, Abra-ham said, the works weredestroyed. The art thatexists today comes fromthe actual animators, theink painters or wereitems gifted to studio vis-itors or VIPs, she said.

    Calande has spent thelast 20 years searching for

    what survived.He now has a signifi-

    cant collection of vintageanimation art from the

    Warner Brothers GoldenEra of Animation.
