Community Partners Raising the Bathhouse
A Big Thank You to Gumba's Family Pizza for hosting our first Gumba's Community Fundraiser, September 26, 2018, to raise the bathhouse. Thank you Matt and Elizabeth for being such wonderful community supporters. The picture below shows the staff that night at the fundraiser, however, two important people were not able to make it in the picture, Chefs Mike Gallup and Allen Crandall.
LIVING HISTORY SCHOOL DAYS 2018
Third grade students from C. Roy Carmichael stepped back in time again by attending the 5th annual “School Days at White Sulphur Springs Ranch” field trip. Mohawk Valley Stewardship Council (MVSC) volunteers showed what it was like at the Ranch in 1858 when it was a stage coach stop on the way to Quincy. Teachers Alex Cone and Tenaya Kooynan used the trip as an opportunity to inject a little local flavor into their California history curriculum for the 44 - 3rd graders in attendance. The MVSC hosted the field trip as a part of its community outreach effort. The day was organized by Karen Fraser and assisted by a dozen volunteers manning six stations where hands on demonstrations were conducted.
A highlight of the day was a lunchtime music fest led by Ranger Pat O’Reilly who played the guitar and was accompanied by kids banging on washboards, string bases and other improvised instruments. All in all it was a great day for the kids and for the MVSC volunteers who were delighted to experience the energy and enthusiasm of the C. Roy Carmichael 3rd graders.

A great big shout out to PENHALL-RENO for donating their concrete drilling services at White Sulphur Springs Ranch. PENHALL drilled 9 holes through a 30" thick concrete wall at the ranch in preparation for the installation of our new water system that will service the ranch house, the bath house and most importantly the future swimming pool.
This was a huge help to our project and we thank Pat for his expert drilling services and Greg Howder with PENHALL-RENO for allowing this generous donation. Summerfest 2018

Preparing for the Bath House and Utilities
Grading work was completed for a small but important area at White Sulphur Springs Ranch yesterday, 6-27-18. The work was done by Curtis Hartwig. Curtis was assisted by Robert Ware and retired heavy equipment construction contractor Roger Hermsmeyer.
A Little Face Painting
Posted: June 22, 2018
Travelers along Highway 89 in the Mohawk Valley were surprised by the brightness of the newly painted fence at White Sulphur Springs Ranch in Clio. On Thursday, June 21, fourteen volunteers painted more than 100 yards of fence after the entire length was pressure washed singlehandedly by Mark Cowan. The old coat was peeling and after pressure washing, little of the old paint remained. Judging by the number of drivers honking and waving to the work crew, it was much appreciated. Painting the fence was just another effort to improve the property prior to Summerfest 2018, the annual fund raiser to benefit White Sulphur Springs Ranch. The fourteen hardy workers were only a small fraction of the more than 100 volunteers helping the Mohawk Valley Stewardship Council restore the history and heritage of White Sulphur Springs Ranch.
Thank you to Mark Cowan and all the volunteers that helped on the fence. New volunteers wanting to be a part of this community effort should call Judy at 530-836-0254 or click here.
This year Summerfest will occur on July 7. It is the 10th annual concert fundraiser and will feature two top entertainers and a hearty picnic buffet along with both live and silent auctions. Tickets are $50 per adult and only $15 for kids 12 and under, either online or at the door. Adult tickets are also available at Eco Centric in Graeagle.

Progress continues in January 2018, on the pool and bath house. January 13-14, construction crews set elevation staking and determined final locations for the pool and bath house. Some grading was done and the foundation and concrete pad for the bath house was prepared. Crews did additional work to shape the dirt walls of the new pool and removed small trees and old underground piping that is no longer needed.
Favorable weather conditions have allowed project manager, Kent Hanford, to continue work on site. Kent is donating his time as project manager to coordinate and oversee work on the pool, bath house, septic & leach field system, well and water infrastructure work and needed electrical upgrade for the project.
