This is not a debate, rather your
chance to ask questions and get answers.
• What is the Sustainable Groundwater Management
Act (SGMA), which was signed into law
effective January 2015?
• Who will manage the basin and what are the
details of the special election happening in February

Parks4Pups fundraiser: Sit Stay Ride
Parks4Pups will host a special film showing of the
documentary “Sit Stay Ride: The Story of America’s
Side Car Dogs” on Wednesday, February 10 at the
Park Cinemas as a fundraiser for Sherwood Dog
Park of Paso Robles.
The event kicks off at 6 p.m. with “Yappy Hour
and Wine Social” with wines by the glass available
for purchase as well as popcorn and soda. The film
shows at 7 p.m. The wine is being donated by J Lohr
Vineyards.
Across America, dogs of all breeds ride in the
open air of motorcycle sidecars, whether on short
trips around town or extended adventures on the
highway. “Sit Stay Ride” is a delightful and inspiring
documentary film about motorcyclists and their beloved
canine co-pilots.
Entertaining and engaging, Sit Stay Ride follows
a number of sidecar-riding duos, trios, and foursomes
as they travel together– sharing the experience
of being out and about on a machine as unique
as its passengers.
Tickets for the event are $12 in advance through
February 9 and $15 at the door. Advance tickets are
available through the website at sherwooddogpark.
isn’t water my property right?
Moderated and facilitated by the League of
Women Voters, the forum will kick-off with a
presentation by John Diodati, San Luis Obispo
County Public Works Department and include
rural resident and land owner representatives
who are both for and against a locally controlled
water district. Attendees will have an opportunity
to submit their questions, hear perspectives
from those who are in favor of a locally controlled
water district and those who are against and
gather facts to make an informed decision about
water.
CWA thanks the League of Women Voters for
their involvement to ensure civil discourse is exercised
properly understanding we all have varying
opinions on sensitive issues like water.
