JUST A THOUGHT<br />
By Bob<br />
Chute<br />
Hey guys, this is your chance to make some points<br />
on this very special day for the ladies. I could wax<br />
poetic about this special time for couples but suffice<br />
to say: Please, don’t miss this opportunity. Treat<br />
each day with loved ones as the special gift it is...<br />
but especially on Valentine’s Day. We offer a story<br />
detailing area Valentine’s Celebrations on page 16.<br />
In this issue…<br />
I do believe we have an interesting collection of<br />
articles for your review.<br />
First of all a tip of the ol’ <strong>PASO</strong> Mag cap to Hugh<br />
Pitts for being honored as Roblan of the Year, and to<br />
The City of Paso Robles and REC Foundation for<br />
renovation of the Downtown City Park recognized<br />
with the Beautification of the Year Award. Both will<br />
be honored (see stories, pages 12 and 14) along with<br />
the installation of the New Board of Directors at the<br />
Paso Robles Chamber’s Annual Dinner & Awards<br />
Gala coming up <strong>February</strong> 11 at the Paso Robles<br />
Inn Grand Ballroom for a “magical evening” with<br />
Dinner & Entertainment, Silent & Live Auctions,<br />
and more…Rho and I will see you there!<br />
In our Education section (page 18) you’ll find<br />
a story about the new program, MICROS: a preprepared<br />
healthy family take-out meal program from<br />
PRHS Culinary Academy plus another about the<br />
new building completed for Paso Boy Scouts.<br />
The 17th annual BUZZ Marathon will be run this<br />
year on Sunday, Feb. 19 on the beautiful Camp Roberts<br />
course (page 35) and, on the Last Word page, the<br />
<strong>2017</strong> Mardi Gras Underground celebrates Fat Tuesday<br />
on March 4 with proceeds to benefit Hospice<br />
SLO County and Community Counseling Center.<br />
Wine Country Theatre presents a dinner theatre<br />
with “Kings of Cool,” returning on <strong>February</strong> 10 and<br />
11 (page 42) or you can catch the “Kings” at Hunter<br />
Ranch for a Supper Club Spectacular on Valentine’s<br />
Day, Feb. 14.<br />

BASEBALL IS BACK!<br />
Spring arrives Monday, March 20<br />
but <strong>February</strong> signals nearly Springtime<br />
when…Dodgers pitchers and catchers<br />
report to Spring Training on Thursday,<br />
Feb. 16, with the first full squad workout at Camelback<br />
Ranch-Glendale, Arizona on <strong>February</strong> 21, and<br />
the first Spring Training game on <strong>February</strong> 25.<br />
The regular season starts April 3 with the Dodgers<br />
home opener against San Diego Padres…or is that<br />
Los Angeles Padres?…oh yeah, that was a flawed football<br />
decision!<br />
Let the lunacy begin…GO BLUE!<br />
