Beat The<br />

Summer Heat<br />

Beat The Heat For Cheap With<br />

Water Slide Season Passes<br />

Beat the heat all summer<br />

long with new season<br />

passes available for Alpine<br />

Slide’s refreshing double water<br />

slide.<br />

Guests get all the wet, wild<br />

fun they can handle with new<br />

anytime water slide season passes<br />

available for just $69. Hit the<br />

twin flumes filled with cool, cascading<br />

water and plenty of twists,<br />

turns and straightaways anytime<br />

you want with Alpine Slide<br />

operating daily. The anytime pass<br />

pays for itself in less than five<br />

visits.<br />

Also available are Sunday<br />

through Friday season passes for<br />

only $49 (excluding <strong>July</strong> 4th).<br />

Either way guests get all the play<br />

in the spray they want as they<br />

whip through refurbished flumes<br />

before splashing into the solar<br />

heated pool at the bottom...a<br />

great way to beat summer heat!<br />

The water slide is always an<br />

Oil and Water dOn’t Mix.<br />

Used motor oil should NEVER be<br />

poured onto the ground, into storm<br />

drains or tossed into trash cans (even in<br />

a sealed container) because it contains<br />

toxins which contaminate the soil,<br />

groundwater, streams and rivers.<br />

Two easy ways to Safely dispose of used oil and filters:<br />

1. FREE curbside pick up is<br />

available to city residents for<br />

used oil. Call 1-800-698-4377<br />

to schedule an appointment.<br />

Funded by CalRecycle<br />

SLIDERS There are plenty of twists, turns and straightaways<br />

at Alpine Slide in Big Bear.<br />

affordable way to play anyway<br />

with all-day passes just $15, 10<br />

rides for $10, or single rides for<br />

$2. Parents who don’t play never<br />

have to pay, many choosing<br />

to sit on one of two spacious<br />

sundecks with a good book<br />

while the kids have a blast. Or,<br />

head to the recently expanded<br />

indoor base lodge to escape the<br />

sun where there’s video games<br />

and family-priced snack bar that<br />

includes an old-fashioned Breyers<br />

ice cream counter.<br />

Alpine Slide is famous for its<br />

Olympic-style bobsleds which<br />

are in season all year long. Snow<br />

is never needed since the sleds<br />

have teflon runners and ballbearing<br />

wheels, and the quartermile<br />

long tracks with banked<br />

turns and long straightaways are<br />

cement.<br />

Riders control their own<br />

speed with the brake, and unlike<br />

any amusement park ride, each<br />

Alpine Slide<br />

trip down is a completely unique<br />

and interactive experience. Lean<br />

into each turn and go into a tuck<br />

through straightaways to experience<br />

what it’s like to be an Olympic<br />

bobsledder, or use the brake<br />

to go slow and soak in views of<br />

the lake and mountains.<br />

For a relaxing change of pace<br />

enjoy a round on the Putt ‘N<br />

Around miniature golf course,<br />

laden with rolling greens, water<br />

hazards, even penalty-stroke<br />

“sand traps.”<br />

Then for more fast fun, ride<br />

the Putt ‘N Around Go-Karts,<br />

each equipped with 5.5 horsepower<br />

Honda motors and an<br />

array of safety features including<br />

three-point harness restraints,<br />

hydraulic disk brakes, rack and<br />

pinion steering and padded steering<br />

wheels. The tire-lined track<br />

sports hair pin and high banked<br />

turns as riders circle under the<br />

pines at 7,000 foot elevation. IER<br />

Alpine Slide is on Big Bear Blvd. in Big Bear, 1/4 mile west<br />

of the Village shopping area, home to 60 specialty stores.<br />

chance to know the performers before the show<br />

begins and it makes them feel like they have a<br />

family member to cheer for up on the stage.”<br />

Gospel Recording Icon Guy Penrod In Loma Linda Concert Aug. 20<br />

Popular gospel recording artist Guy Penrod will be<br />

featured in a live concert at Loma Linda University<br />

Church on <strong>August</strong> 20. Online and telephone ticket sales<br />

have opened for the appearance as part of the award-winning<br />

singer’s national “Pray About Everything” tour, sponsors of the<br />

Loma Linda event announced this week.<br />

Penrod is known to millions for his Grammy and Dove<br />

award-winning recordings and his many televised appearances<br />

with the Gaither Homecoming Tour and Gaither Vocal Band.<br />

His rare concert appearance in the <strong>Inland</strong> Empire is co-sponsored<br />

by the host church and the nearby Calimesa Seventh-day<br />

Adventist Church, in collaboration with the Calimesa Community<br />

Concert Series.<br />

Tickets for the all-reserved seats can be ordered online from<br />

www.iTickets.com or by phone at (800) 965-9324, explains<br />

concert series coordinator Dr. Bob Soderblom. Prices range<br />

from $10 to $30 depending on location, he says, with primeseat<br />

VIP tickets $50 each.<br />

Early ticket buyers have access to preferred seat locations<br />

in each price category, Soderblom advises. Popular credit cards<br />

are accepted, and concertgoers will enjoy free parking in a<br />

structure immediately across the street from the church, he<br />

says.<br />

Tickets are not being sold at the church, and none will be<br />

available at the doors, which open at 6:30 for the 7pm concert.<br />

Visually striking for his flowing white hair, Penrod spent 14<br />

years as lead singer with the Gaither Vocal Group before launching<br />

his successful solo ministry in 2010. His 2012 recording,<br />

“Hymns,” became the top-selling southern gospel album, and<br />

this year’s January release, “Guy Penrod Live,” opened in the<br />

number two position on Nielsen’s Contemporary Christian Music<br />

chart. His first solo DVD, “Live Hymns and Worship,” was<br />

also released this year and debuted at number one in Billboard’s<br />

contemporary Christian music chart.<br />

He was named “Soloist of the Year” by the National Quartet<br />

Convention in 2013.<br />

Born into a Baptist pastor’s family in Taylor, Texas, young<br />

Guy showed musical promise at an early age. He recorded his<br />

first album as a high school student in New Mexico, singing all<br />

four parts.<br />

After graduation from Liberty University, Penrod pursued<br />

his musical career as a studio and back-up singer, working with<br />

many notable musicians. During this period he first met Christian<br />

recording mogul Bill Gaither, and accepted his position<br />

with the Gaither Vocal Band in 1994. With the Gaither musical<br />

groups he toured extensively in the United States and Canada as<br />

well as in Europe, Australia, and Africa.<br />

Today he lives on a farm in Tennessee with his wife Angie,<br />

their eight children, and an assortment of cows and farm animals.<br />

The children – seven boys and one girl (the youngest) – are<br />

all home-schooled.<br />

Sinfonia Mexicana Mariachi Youth Academy<br />

From San Bernardino Wins Top Honor<br />

Sinfonia Mexicana Mariachi Youth Academy of San Bernardino was<br />

awarded 2nd place at the San Juan Capistrano 12th Annual “Battle<br />

of the Mariachi.” The Academy competed against 10 top rated<br />

Mariachi Youth Groups from throughout California and Arizona. The San<br />

Bernardino group was the second most highly rated mariachi in the youth<br />

category and the best rated group from California.<br />

The performance to an audience of 4,000 people comes just one week<br />

after their Mother’s Day performance at Whitmer Auditorium at Colton<br />

High School.<br />

“We are very proud of our students who have worked very hard to prepare<br />

for this performance”, said Tony Bocanegra, the Executive Director.<br />

“These youth are goodwill ambassadors for the City of San Bernardino.”<br />

Oscar Tostado is the director of the Academy and Sinfonia Mexicana<br />

President, Maria Saenz is the assistant Director.<br />

The Academy is housed at Sturges Center for the Fine Arts and is partially<br />

funded by a grant from the San Bernardino Fine Arts Commission. The<br />

Mariachi Youth Academy, now in its 7th year, continues to provide students<br />

with a music education focused on mariachi music, and mentors students to<br />

excel academically and pursue a college education. IER<br />

For info and tickets check the CATS website<br />

Office at (909) 866-4970.<br />

Take Me Along opened on Broadway in<br />

October of 1959, during the “Golden Age of<br />

Broadway.” Originally starring Jackie Gleason,<br />

who won the 1960 Tony Award for his hilarious<br />

performance, and also starring Walter Pidgeon in<br />

his magnificent singing role, Take Me Along is a<br />

high spirited family musical filled with wonderful<br />

songs and delightfully funny scenes. The musical<br />

made a star of Robert Morse, and introduced a<br />

young dancer to Broadway by the name of Valerie<br />

Harper. The Music & Lyrics for the musical were<br />

written by Robert Merrill (Funny Girl) with book<br />

by Joseph Stein (Fiddler On The Roof) and Robert<br />

Russell. It was originally produced by David Merrick,<br />

with staging by Onna White.<br />

After closing on Broadway, the musical played<br />

National Tours and summer stock venues for several<br />

years. It was so popular that United Airlines<br />

adapted the title song for a massive ad campaign<br />

in the late ‘60s.<br />

CATS is reviving the musical again, having<br />

produced it 15 years ago. Director-Choreographer<br />

Karen Sargent Rachels, who once toured<br />

with the musical along with Dan Dailey, has fond<br />

memories of the show. She says: “Along with a<br />

terrific score, the musical has a wonderful script,<br />

based on Eugene O’Neill’s classic comedy, Ah,<br />

Wilderness!. Teenagers as well as Senior citizens<br />

fall in love, come of age and try to stay out of<br />

trouble, all with delightful singing and dancing.<br />

If you liked The Music Man, you’ll love Take Me<br />

Along.”<br />

Take Me Along is set on <strong>July</strong> 4, 1906, and is<br />

the perfect family musical. Once again, CATS’<br />

Set Designer, Joanne McMaster, has designed a<br />

lovely period set for use on the Performing Arts<br />

Center’s revolving stage. Costumes are designed<br />

by Priscilla Anderson, with Bob Perry in charge of<br />

Set Construction. Karen Bergmann is Associate<br />

Producer, Adam McDonald is Production Coordinator<br />

and Joe Sellarole is Musical Director. The<br />

cast includes several of CATS’ star performers including<br />

Steve Mangels, Adam McDonald, Diana<br />

Hintergardt, Nancy Walker, Timmy Brasher and<br />

Jessica Brasher.<br />

Tickets are on sale now. Tickets and information<br />

American Kestrel<br />

ZOO TIME!<br />

Big Bear Alpine Zoo<br />

Strives Towards<br />

New Heights<br />

High in the mountain region of Big Bear Lake, a<br />

gaze of raccoons (that’s what you call a group of<br />

raccoons) is scurrying across branches foraging<br />

for food items while other members of the gaze are<br />

busy at a nearby water source involved in their dunking<br />

ritual, rinsing their food through the water. What at<br />

first appears to be both food and hand washing is actually<br />

the technique used by raccoons to heighten their<br />

sense of touch, giving them precise information on<br />

what they are about to consume.<br />

Not far away, a male black bear tilts his head up<br />

and with a rapid succession of airflow through his<br />

nostrils, determines that a tasty food source is close by.<br />

His sense of smell, 100 times more powerful than that<br />

of a human’s, picks up a scent of an edible possibility.<br />

With massive arm and shoulder strength to accompany<br />

the incredible sense of smell, the 400-pound omnivore<br />

moves massive logs in an effort to find each morsel of<br />

hidden edible treasure.<br />

Known for their expertise as an ambush predator,<br />

two mountain lions blend in with their surrounding<br />

mountain flora, hiding between bark and branch.<br />

Above the ground, the brown, black, and grey hues of<br />

their fur makes them almost invisible allowing them to<br />

scan the activity on the ground beneath them.<br />

A perfect match for the surrounding bark of forest<br />

trees, their stealth-like behavior makes them almost<br />

undetectable.<br />

California has some of the most diverse wildlife<br />

in North America. But you don’t have to camp out in<br />

the wilderness just to catch a glimpse of some of our<br />

state’s amazing animals. In fact, the animals described<br />

above are actually animals at the Big Bear Alpine Zoo.<br />

Founded in 1959, the Big Bear Alpine Zoo is the only<br />

Alpine Zoo of its kind in the United States. Situated at<br />

almost 7,000 feet above sea level, the Big Bear Alpine<br />

Zoo serves as a rehabilitation facility for both mountain<br />

and nearby communities. With a nearly 80% success<br />

rate, animals are nursed back to health or weaned onto<br />

solid foods and then released back into the wild. If an<br />

animal is too injured or if it has lost its fear of humans,<br />

it cannot be released and has a home for life at Big Bear<br />

Alpine Zoo.<br />

“Our goal at the zoo is to connect our guests to<br />

wildlife, to demonstrate both the uniqueness of our<br />

animals and their habitat in the wild,” says Curator<br />

Bob Cisneros. “As for our animals, we focus on their<br />

natural behaviors, providing them with opportunities<br />

to thrive. I think this combination of connecting<br />

guests to wildlife and meeting the welfare needs of our<br />

animals makes us very successful at what we do.”<br />

If you are planning a trip to Big Bear, get your wild<br />

on! A visit to the zoo is the best way to see representatives<br />

of our mountain ecosystem. Located on 2.5 acres,<br />

Big Bear Alpine Zoo brings the wild to you, housing<br />

over 100 animals, mostly native species.<br />

The zoo is open daily from 10am through 5pm and<br />

is located at 43285 Goldmine Drive in Big Bear Lake,<br />

right across the street from Bear Mountain Ski and<br />

Board Resort.<br />

Each day at noon there is an animal presentation<br />

done by one of their keepers and three animal enrichment<br />

talks at 1pm, 2pm, and 3pm.<br />

If you want to know more about the facility and<br />

the animals in their care, check out the website at www.<br />

bigbearzoo.org or like them on their facebook page. IER<br />

California<br />

has some<br />
