Style Magazine - July 2023
When our team brainstormed cover ideas for this month’s issue, we debated between an actual dog, a hot dog, or the possibility of both (a dog eating a hot dog?!). It is the dog days of summer, after all. Each option had its advantages. Canines are cute, likable, and would make the featured pup’s owner pretty proud. Hot dogs, however, scream “summer in America!”—a timely choice for July. Plus, as my publisher likes to regularly remind me: “Food sells.” Clearly, you can see who came out as the top dog. We hope you agree it’s a fun, nostalgic nod to memories of backyard barbecues, ballgames, and (if your family is anything like mine) the Costco food court. Read all about the fiery frank (dressed to impress with homemade and seriously spicy condiments), plus nine more gourmet, grown-up dogs in The Hot List (page 88). Pet lovers won’t want to miss our adorable and informative article, “Incredible Pets!” (page 64), featuring a pictorial of furry friends who live locally (and some amusing anecdotes about them), plus a roundup of pooch-friendly patios, public “pet”iquette, area dog parks, and wonderful ways to honor a pet who has passed. While my family doesn’t currently have a pet at home (unless you count my two young kids, who—just like puppies—love snuggling, making messes, outdoor adventures, and constantly trying to get treats), I’m guessing it won’t be long until a fluffy (preferably potty-trained) friend joins our household. Animals aside, there are plenty more page-turning pieces ahead. In The 10 Spot (page 20), we talk about the region’s coolest consignment shops—where you can buy (or sell) everything from brand-name furniture and barely worn baby clothes to high-end handbags—and why this type of shopping isn’t only good for your wallet, but the environment too. Finally, check out “Get a Room” (page 76) to read about some of Nor Cal’s hautest hotels—from a four-star French-style château to an intimate, highly exclusive Edwardian-era inn. Stay cool out there, and don’t forget to “relish” the good times with your best friends…and man’s best friend. Cheers!

When our team brainstormed<br />
cover ideas for this month’s<br />
issue, we debated between<br />
an actual dog, a hot dog, or<br />
the possibility of both (a dog<br />
eating a hot dog?!). It is the dog<br />
days of summer, after all.<br />
Each option had its advantages. Canines<br />
are cute, likable, and would make the featured<br />
pup’s owner pretty proud. Hot dogs, however,<br />
scream “summer in America!”—a timely choice<br />
for <strong>July</strong>. Plus, as my publisher likes to regularly<br />
remind me: “Food sells.”<br />
Clearly, you can see who came out as the<br />
top dog. We hope you agree it’s a fun, nostalgic<br />
nod to memories of backyard barbecues,<br />
ballgames, and (if your family is anything like<br />
mine) the Costco food court. Read all about the fiery frank (dressed to impress with<br />
homemade and seriously spicy condiments), plus nine more gourmet, grown-up<br />
dogs in The Hot List (page 88).<br />
Pet lovers won’t want to miss our adorable and informative article, “Incredible<br />
Pets!” (page 64), featuring a pictorial of furry friends who live locally (and some<br />
amusing anecdotes about them), plus a roundup of pooch-friendly patios, public<br />
“pet”iquette, area dog parks, and wonderful ways to honor a pet who has passed.<br />
While my family doesn’t currently have a pet at home (unless you count my<br />
two young kids, who—just like puppies—love snuggling, making messes, outdoor<br />
adventures, and constantly trying to get treats), I’m guessing it won’t be long until a<br />
fluffy (preferably potty-trained) friend joins our household.<br />

(page 20), we talk about the region’s coolest consignment shops—where you can buy<br />
(or sell) everything from brand-name furniture and barely worn baby clothes to<br />
high-end handbags—and why this type of shopping isn’t only good for your wallet,<br />
but the environment too. In “(Don’t) Say Cheese”<br />
"With<br />
(page 24) photographers share their top tips for<br />
taking picture-perfect snaps, whether the subject<br />
freedom,<br />
is a colorful cocktail, cranky kid, or fidgety feline.<br />
books,<br />
Finally, check out “Get a Room” (page 76) to read<br />
flowers, and<br />
about some of Nor Cal’s hautest hotels—from a fourstar<br />
French-style château to an intimate, highly<br />

exclusive Edwardian-era inn. The best part about<br />
who could not all the properties? They’re located in destinations<br />

that typically boast temperate temperatures, so<br />
you can escape the mundane of home and the heat!<br />

removing dead cells and promoting the growth of new skin cells.<br />

Seasons of<br />
Folsom by<br />
Mandi Oliphant<br />
Don’t miss Heartbeat of Folsom<br />
(heartbeatfolsom.com), a whimsical<br />
public art event—presented by<br />
Leadership Folsom, in collaboration<br />
with Choose Folsom—that features<br />
multiple heart sculptures installed<br />
throughout the city (locations include<br />
Red Bus Brewing Company,<br />
Adrian Blanco Jewelry, Palladio,<br />
and Folsom Premium Outlets).<br />
Each sculpture was decorated by a<br />
local artist to showcase Folsom: “the<br />
best city to live, work, and play.” A<br />
portion of fundraising proceeds will<br />
benefit Powerhouse Ministries,<br />
a nonprofit that serves families<br />
and individuals struggling with<br />
addiction, abuse, and poverty.<br />
Placerville is exploring<br />
the potential of a<br />
program called<br />
Connect Placerville,<br />
which would<br />
deploy communityowned<br />
fiber optic<br />
infrastructure<br />
(lightning-fast Wi-Fi)<br />
throughout the<br />
city. If the initiative<br />
moves forward, it<br />
would significantly<br />
increase the speed<br />
and reliability, lower<br />
the cost of access<br />
for residents and<br />
businesses, increase<br />
competition between<br />
service providers,<br />
improve economic<br />
development and<br />
foster innovation, and<br />
improve city services<br />
like transportation<br />
and health care.<br />

by MELISSA STRAND<br />
It’s tempting to make fast fashion and household purchases<br />
with the click of a button, but utilizing local resources to buy<br />
a pre-loved item has positive impacts on the environment—<br />
and your wallet. Say goodbye to shipping boxes and premium<br />
prices by immersing yourself in some of our region's resale<br />
retailers, where you can find high-end, brand-name treasures<br />
at reasonable rates.<br />
Home Consignment Center<br />
sells furniture, accessories, designer<br />
handbags, and fine jewelry, with an<br />
emphasis on upscale brands. All<br />
inventory comes from area homes,<br />
manufacturer's samples, model homes,<br />
and factory closeouts. They keep<br />
costs transparent and none of the<br />
store employees are paid commission.<br />
They accept items every day, so you<br />
never know what new treasures will<br />
appear. 850 East Bidwell Street,<br />

RUBY'S BOOKS<br />
Ruby’s Books (rubysfolsom.<br />
com)—a treasured<br />
independent bookstore<br />
along Historic Folsom’s Sutter<br />
Street—carries a wide variety<br />
of curated new books as well<br />
as toys and gifts. Its namesake<br />
is Ruby, an eight-year-old<br />
golden retriever. “We’ve had<br />
Ruby since she was eight<br />
weeks old,” says Stacy Gould,<br />
owner of Ruby’s Books. “When<br />
I was planning the bookstore,<br />
I was worried about leaving<br />
[her] home alone all day.<br />
When I realized she could just<br />
come to the store with me, it<br />
quickly evolved into being all<br />
about her!”<br />
Ruby loves to play fetch,<br />
but don’t expect her to<br />
bring the ball back.<br />
“At best, she’ll bring<br />
it 10 feet in front<br />
of you and drop<br />
it expectantly,”<br />
says Stacy. “This is<br />
problematic when we<br />
throw the ball in the<br />
lake [and] the water is<br />
too cold for us; she’ll drop<br />
the ball several feet from<br />
shore and get frustrated with<br />
us for not going in to get the<br />
ball and throw it again.”<br />
On any given day, Ruby can<br />
be found hanging out waiting<br />
for snuggles and attention<br />
from customers. “One of<br />
her best qualities is how<br />
much she truly loves making<br />
people happy, which makes her a<br />
great bookstore dog!”<br />
DUELING DOGS<br />
BREWING CO.<br />
When Earl and Adriana Stephens<br />
began developing their familyrun<br />
Lincoln brewery, Dueling Dogs<br />
(duelingdogsbrewing.com), they<br />
knew their pups would play a<br />
major part. “Our dogs are behind<br />
everything, from the brewery’s<br />
name, logo, and apparel to the<br />
titles of popular brews,” says<br />
Adriana.<br />
Their yellow lab, Newton, and<br />
black lab, Rocco, are the<br />
stars of the logo. Sadly,<br />
Newton passed away<br />
before the brewery<br />
opened in 2016,<br />
but he was there<br />
from the beginning<br />
of the Dueling<br />
Dogs journey and<br />
“We love our pups,<br />
and life wouldn’t<br />
be the same<br />
without them;<br />
the brewery<br />
wouldn’t be the<br />
same either.”<br />

CHAMPY'S CATFE<br />
Champy’s Catfe<br />
(fieldhavenmarketplace.com/<br />
champys-catfe) is no ordinary<br />
café. It’s Lincoln’s premiere<br />
destination for coffee<br />
enthusiasts and cat lovers to<br />
cozy up with adoptable felines<br />
from the nonprofit cat shelter,<br />
FieldHaven Feline Center.<br />
The Catfe is located inside<br />
FieldHaven’s thrift store, which<br />
benefits the nonprofit and is<br />
where you can find Champy,<br />
the shelter mascot, and other<br />
adoptable felines.<br />
In 2014, Champy, along with 60<br />
other cats, were rescued from<br />
a hoarding situation. Sadly,<br />
Champy lost both eyes due to<br />
an infection and is now blind.<br />
“It’s hard to tell he’s even blind,<br />
as he plays like any other cat,”<br />
says Joy Smith, FieldHaven’s<br />
executive director.<br />
“Everyone became so endeared<br />
to him that we couldn't adopt<br />
him out, so he became our<br />
shelter mascot,” says Smith.<br />
“When we opened our thrift<br />
store, we decided it would be a<br />
really great place for Champy to<br />
live full-time.” Champy lived in<br />
the thrift store for several years<br />
but came home with Joy prior<br />
to Covid and now lives with her<br />
family, along with their dog and<br />
four other cats.<br />
“If you fall in love with one<br />
of our adoptable kitties over<br />
coffee, we’ll help with the<br />
process to make it part of<br />
your ‘furever’ home.”<br />
GOATHOUSE<br />
BREWING CO.<br />
GoatHouse Brewing<br />
(goathousebrewing.com) in<br />
Lincoln isn’t your average<br />
brewery. It’s where the<br />
world of goats and craft<br />
beer collide.<br />
“Besides eating and<br />
resting, the goats<br />
love mingling with<br />
guests and are<br />
extremely social.”<br />
“It’s hard to tell he’s<br />
even blind, as he plays<br />
like any other cat”<br />
“GoatHouse was created<br />
as a farm-based business<br />
where hops were grown<br />
and brewing took place<br />
on-site. As a culinary school<br />
student who loved making<br />
cheese, I wanted to merge<br />
the two ideas,” says Cathy<br />
Johnson, who owns the<br />
brewery with her husband<br />
Michael. “Our original<br />
business plan included<br />
opening a small goat dairy<br />
to pair cheeses with the<br />
[farm-made] beer using<br />
all natural and sustainable<br />
processes.” The dairy never<br />
came to fruition, but having<br />
the goats as an integral part<br />
of the brewery did.<br />
“We wanted everything to be<br />
craft made, a la ‘House,’ so<br />
‘GoatHouse’ was the name<br />
we came up with—and the<br />
goats stayed!” says Cathy.<br />
“It’s a total farm-to-tap<br />
experience.” Currently, there<br />
are around 17 goats and a<br />
mini donkey protecting the<br />
herd. According to Cathy,<br />
they all have individual<br />
personalities and know<br />
their names. Besides eating<br />
and resting, the goats love<br />
mingling with guests and are<br />
extremely social. “They’re all<br />
so sweet and love nothing<br />
more than having their<br />
cheeks scratched by our<br />
amazing customers.”<br />

Tips for Taking Perfect Pics<br />
by JENNIFER MARAGONI<br />
Not so long ago, an amateur<br />
photographer with a compact<br />
camera could only point, shoot,<br />
and hope for the best. But these days,<br />
digital cameras and cell phones can make<br />
anyone feel like Ansel Adams or Annie<br />
Leibovitz. And while there’s decidedly<br />
more to taking great photos than pointing<br />
and shooting, shutterbugs can up their<br />
game by following some tips from the pros.<br />
First, let's address what is often the<br />
most common mistake. “Don’t make<br />
your subjects say ‘cheese,’” cautions<br />
Placerville-based photographer Karen<br />
Schmautz of Sierra Springs Photography<br />
(sierraspringsphotography.com). It<br />
stretches your mouth into an unnatural,<br />
frozen smile. The best way to get organic<br />
expressions is to put your subjects at<br />
ease, she says. Approach them rather<br />
than shouting instructions, joke around<br />
with them, have them shrug their<br />
shoulders to loosen up—and take lots<br />
of pictures, because the first few will<br />
probably be throwaways.<br />
Whether you’re photographing<br />
people or pets, get at eye level and try<br />
to capture natural behaviors, such as<br />
people laughing or animals at play.<br />
And don’t rule out a bribe. “I’ll hold<br />
a treat in my hand or use a squeaky<br />
toy to get my dog’s attention,” says<br />
Folsom-based photographer Terrie Gray<br />
(terriegrayphotography.com). “Make a<br />
noise to get their cute head to tilt and<br />
you’ll win every time!”<br />
START WITH A CLEAN LENS<br />
It sounds simple, but before you start<br />
snapping, make sure your camera lens is<br />
clean. Use a microfiber cloth or lenscleaning<br />
kit—never Windex or other<br />
harsh cleaners—to wipe off smudges or<br />
dirt. “I once had a student ask me why all<br />
her photos came out ‘soft focus,’” recalls<br />
Pollock Pines-based photographer Steph<br />
Gabler (stephanie-gabler.pixels.com), who<br />
taught photography classes for nearly a<br />
decade. “I looked at her lens and there<br />
was a thick film on it, preventing her from<br />
getting crisp, clear images.”<br />
GET TO KNOW YOUR CAMERA<br />
Even the best camera won’t produce great<br />
results if you don’t know how to use it.<br />
“Don’t go out and buy the most expensive<br />
camera,” says Folsom-based photographer<br />
Amber Shoop Felts of Shoop’s Photography<br />
(shoopsphotography.com). “Master the one<br />
you have now before upgrading. The best<br />
camera is the one you have with you when<br />
you need it.” When taking photos on your<br />
phone, experiment with different modes.<br />
For example, portrait mode, which blurs<br />
the background, is a great way to establish<br />
a depth of field.<br />
LOOK FOR GOOD LIGHTING<br />
Whether you’re taking a photo of your<br />
kids, a beautiful landscape, or a decadent<br />
meal, proper lighting makes a huge<br />
difference. “Try to avoid [intense], direct<br />
sunlight or overhead lighting, as it can<br />
create harsh shadows and blown-out<br />
highlights,” explains El Dorado Hills-based<br />
photographer Audrey Perez (audreyperez.<br />
com). “Instead, look for soft, diffused light<br />
sources, such as natural light coming in<br />
through a window. If you’re taking photos<br />
outdoors, consider shooting during golden<br />
hour—the hour after sunrise or before<br />
sunset—when the light is soft and warm.”<br />
“Doorways are great spots for selfies<br />
and portraits,” adds Felts. “Stand in<br />
a doorway facing out. The lighting is<br />
always nice there.”<br />

When taking landscape photos, don’t<br />
be afraid of the weather, says Gabler. “Fog,<br />
clouds, rain, and snow can add incredible<br />
drama to photos,” she says. Just make sure<br />
to protect your camera from the elements.<br />
And if you’re a budding food<br />
photographer, find a window. “Light can<br />
make or break a photo,” says Rosevillebased<br />
food photographer Taylor Gillespie<br />
of Food in Focus (foodinfocus.net), who<br />
describes photography as the art of<br />
painting with light. “Put your subject<br />
close to a window with natural light and<br />
turn off all artificial light in the area. The<br />
food will look a hundred times better!”<br />
DON’T RELY ON THE FLASH<br />
The pros agree that natural light produces<br />
the best results. The built-in flash on your<br />
phone or digital camera is harsh and can<br />
make subjects look washed out. Instead,<br />
when taking photos outdoors, have the<br />
sun behind you and have your subjects<br />
stand in the shade so they aren’t squinting<br />
into the bright light, suggests Gray. Just<br />
make sure there isn’t half shade and<br />
half sun on their faces, she adds. When<br />
indoors, try holding a small LED light to<br />
the side of your subject if the natural light<br />
is insufficient, suggests Schmautz.<br />
Like most rules, there are occasional<br />
exceptions. “If your subject is in a<br />
dark area and the background is very<br />
bright—for example, someone standing<br />
under a tree with a bright landscape<br />
behind them—pop your flash to even-out<br />
exposure,” says Schmautz. “The light is not<br />
very attractive, but it’s OK to use under<br />
that circumstance.” Adds Felts, “If your<br />
photos are coming out grainy or blurry,<br />
try your flash.”<br />
And when in doubt, take a photo<br />
both with and without the flash. “As the<br />
photographer, it’s up to you to decide<br />
which image you prefer,” Gabler says.<br />
SET THE EXPOSURE<br />
Exposure is the amount of light that<br />
reaches a camera’s sensor, resulting<br />
in how bright or dark a photo is. On<br />
a camera, this is determined in part<br />
by the shutter speed. On a phone, you<br />
can adjust the exposure manually<br />
by tapping the screen on the object<br />
you want to focus on and then sliding<br />
the sun icon up or down with your<br />
finger. “If your subject is darker or<br />
lighter than the surrounding area and<br />
you let your phone or camera decide<br />
the exposure, you’ll probably end up<br />
with a dark or overexposed subject,”<br />
Schmautz says.<br />
CONSIDER THE COMPOSITION<br />
Every amateur photographer has, at<br />
some point, taken what they thought<br />
was a great shot only to realize later<br />
that a tree or telephone pole was<br />
growing out of their subject’s head.<br />
Take a moment to survey the area to<br />
ensure it’s free of unsightly intrusions.<br />
Also, consider the composition of<br />
your photo—the arrangement of the<br />
various elements within the frame—<br />
and avoid dead-center shots. “Try<br />
using the ‘rule of thirds’—dividing the<br />
frame into thirds horizontally and<br />
vertically, and placing the subject at the<br />
intersection point,” suggests Perez. You<br />
can turn these gridlines on through the<br />
settings app on your phone.<br />
“Use unique angles!” adds Folsombased<br />
food photographer Jacob Cantu,<br />
founder of Voyage Creative Agency<br />
(voyagecreativeagency.com) and Folsom<br />
Eats (folsom-eats.com). “Don’t always<br />
photograph food from your normal<br />
perspective. Find new and creative<br />
ways to showcase what you’re eating.”<br />
Also remember the “rule of odds,”<br />
which states that a composition will<br />
be more interesting and pleasing to<br />
the eye if it contains an odd number<br />
of subjects.<br />
“Study composition,” Gillespie<br />
says. “The camera, the lens…none of<br />
it matters if a basic understanding of<br />
composition is not utilized.”<br />
EDIT YOUR PHOTOS<br />
Have you ever noticed that your<br />
pictures don’t accurately capture<br />
what you saw? Perhaps the stunning<br />
landscape before you appears flat<br />
or washed out in your photo. “That’s<br />
because you need to edit your picture,<br />
bring up the sharpness, color, etc., to<br />
what drew you to take the picture in<br />
the first place,” Gabler explains. There<br />
are numerous free, easy-to-use photo<br />
editing apps available, including<br />
Snapseed and Lightroom.<br />
PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT<br />
While all these tips will improve your<br />
photos, ultimately, the best way to take<br />
better pictures is to practice. “The<br />
more you practice, the more you’ll<br />
learn about lighting, composition, and<br />
editing, and the better your photos<br />
will become over time,” Perez says.<br />
“Experiment! Try different angles and<br />
different light,” adds Gabler. “Most<br />
importantly, have fun!”<br />

“We have been with The Gift of Kids for<br />

chose this fantastic school for our two<br />
children. My oldest is now in the first<br />
grade and was more than prepared for<br />
her entry into kindergarten last year.<br />
She excelled!”<br />
—Kelly L.<br />
The school also offers on-site soccer and ballet which<br />
is wonderful! Our son joined soccer a few weeks ago<br />
and LOVES it! It’s so convenient. They also use a webbased<br />
app so they can share progress and pictures<br />
throughout the day. It gives you a glimpse into their<br />
day which I love. I can see him learning and growing<br />
everyday and he’s always happy when I drop him<br />
off or pop in for a visit. I definitely recommend this<br />
school! Our experience has been very positive.<br />

Small Changes,<br />
Big Results<br />
10 Powerful Health Habits<br />
by MELISSA STRAND<br />
With all the fast-fix health fads available, it’s hard to cut through the clutter<br />
and navigate what can realistically improve your well-being. One thing that's<br />
effective? Making small changes that can be implemented daily to create lasting<br />
habits that pay off. We reached out to local experts for ideas you can tackle<br />
today for big results you’ll see, and feel, instantly.<br />
1<br />
MAKE QUALITY SLEEP NON-NEGOTIABLE<br />
“Most adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every<br />
night. Create boundaries in your personal and professional<br />
life to make sure—at least one hour prior to sleep—all family<br />
[obligations] and work is done for the day and dinner has<br />
been eaten. Consider taking magnesium glycinate, turning<br />
off all light-emitting devices, and ensuring your bedroom is<br />
dark, cool, and comfy.” —Aly V. Johnston, FNP-BC, Well by AM<br />
Nursing, wellbyamnursing.com<br />

BLOCK OFF YOUR CALENDAR<br />
2<br />
“Think of your mental and physical health as if it was<br />
an appointment you couldn’t miss. You wouldn’t dare miss<br />
a dentist appointment or work meeting, so why would you<br />
skip out on your health? By simply putting it on your calendar<br />
(and getting a friend to join you), you’re more likely to lace up<br />
those shoes and go on that afternoon walk. Whether you use<br />
an old-fashioned planner or your smartphone, pick a time of<br />
day where you can sneak in even just 20 minutes of fitness.<br />
Your physical and mental health will both improve drastically.”<br />
—Heather Crivellone, Personal Trainer, Roseville Health &<br />
Wellness Center, rosevillehwc.com<br />
FIND YOUR BREATH<br />
3<br />
“The positive effects of deep, conscious breathing on<br />
your brain—typically involving an out-breath (through your<br />
mouth) that is longer than an in-breath (through your nose)—<br />
are well known and can provide an immediate calming effect<br />
on your central nervous system, making you less reactive [to<br />
stressful situations].” —Pamela Connor, Functional Nutritionist,<br />
Connor Wellness Clinic, connorwellnessclinic.com<br />
LOG OFF<br />
4<br />
“Observe your digital health by avoiding screens within<br />
three hours of bedtime to support the body’s natural<br />
rhythms, including sleep and appetite.” —Devon L. Gaston, DC,<br />

MOVE YOUR BODY<br />
5<br />
“Exercise—technically any<br />
activity that gets your heart rate up—<br />
has a positive impact on both mental<br />
and physical health and allows you<br />
to better handle stressful situations.<br />
It can be hard to get started, but<br />
even going for a walk will help you<br />
reap the benefits.” —Melissa Lao, MD,<br />
Dignity Health Mercy Medical Group,<br />
mymercymedicalgroup.org<br />
PRACTICE BEING<br />
6<br />
PRESENT<br />
“When you’re constantly striving for<br />
perfection, you miss out on all the<br />
little moments that can potentially<br />
bring joy. Practice staying in the<br />
moment by observing and describing<br />
it with your five senses: watch, touch,<br />
listen, smell, and taste.” —Holly<br />
Spotts, PsyD, Full Cup Wellness,<br />
fullcupwellness.com<br />
SNEAK IN ACTIVITY<br />
7<br />
THROUGHOUT THE DAY<br />
“Intentional exercise is great, but it's<br />
the little things that make the biggest<br />
difference—parking a little farther<br />
away at the grocery store, taking<br />
the stairs, and getting up from your<br />
desk for a lap around the office or<br />
your neighborhood. Aim for 7,500-<br />
8,000 steps per day. These things<br />
add up big time!” —Anna Schoener,<br />
Head Performance Coach, ISI Elite<br />
Training, isielitetraining.com<br />
FIND MINDFUL<br />
8<br />
MOVEMENT<br />
“Movement should be mindful. Yoga<br />
is an opportunity to connect the<br />
breath—easily and effortlessly—to the<br />
mind, body, and spirit. It means letting<br />
go of the daily grind of all outside<br />
experiences and journeying inward<br />
to your own true self. When the body<br />
moves without engagement of the<br />
brain, only muscles are nourished.<br />
When the body moves with the mind,<br />
injury is prevented, due to the proper<br />
posture and skeletal alignment, while<br />
coordination and skills are increased.<br />
When breath, mind, body, and spirit<br />
all work together synergistically, you’ll<br />
feel more connected, stronger, and<br />
exude more joy.” —Tammie Fairchild,<br />
Founder & CEO, Serenity Spa | Soul Yoga,<br />
serenityspaonline.com<br />
PLAN & PREP MEALS<br />
9<br />
“Whether you want to lose weight,<br />
reduce your blood sugar levels, sleep<br />
better, or simply have more energy,<br />
planning and prepping meals [has myriad<br />
benefits], including less overeating, since<br />
meals are portion-controlled; eliminating<br />
headaches and blood sugar drops from<br />
not meal skipping or waiting too long<br />
between meals; and weight loss from not<br />
grabbing unhealthy food when hunger<br />
hits.” —Paula Hendricks Padla, Nutrition<br />
Consultant, Hendricks for Health,<br />
hendricksforhealth.com<br />
PROTECT YOUR SMILE<br />
10<br />
"Oral health is linked to overall<br />
health and well-being. Taking care of<br />
your mouth [brushing and flossing]<br />
generally leads to the entire body being<br />
[taken care of] in a healthy, disease-free<br />
manner. Scheduling two dental visits per<br />
year could end up lowering your risk of<br />
several general health-related illnesses,<br />
so make sure to stay on top of your<br />
teeth.” —Amar Pawar, DDS, Pawar Dental<br />
Corporation, folsomfamilydental.com<br />

Take a Hike<br />
Tahoe Rim Trail to Picnic Rock<br />
by RYAN MARTINEZ<br />
LOCATED NEAR:<br />
Kings Beach.<br />
DISTANCE:<br />
3.1 miles out-and-back.<br />
DIFFICULTY LEVEL:<br />
Moderate.<br />
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:<br />
Arrive early to snag a parking<br />
spot. No water is available on<br />
the trail, so pack accordingly.<br />
Though part of the route<br />
is shaded, come prepared<br />
with sun protection and lots<br />
of layers. Leashed dogs are<br />
welcome. As always, wear shoes<br />
with traction and leave no trace.<br />
WHY WE LOVE IT:<br />
Considered the “best bang for<br />
your buck” for the effort, this<br />
short hike offers amazing views.<br />
The best part? You’re on the<br />
Tahoe Rim Trail—a 165-mile<br />
route that winds through a<br />
variety of terrain—so can easily<br />
extend your hike for a full- or<br />
multi-day adventure.<br />
FUEL UP:<br />
For modern Italian cuisine (fried<br />
cheese curds, mushroom mac<br />

KNOW<br />
BEFORE<br />
YOU GO<br />
Hiking<br />
the Tahoe<br />
Rim Trail<br />
The Tahoe Rim Trail—with<br />
its 165 miles of pristine<br />
alpine wilderness—is<br />
arguably one of the best<br />
trails in the U.S.<br />
The entire route takes<br />
most people between<br />
10-15 days. <strong>July</strong> through<br />
September is the time to<br />
go, and most people tend<br />
to hike it clockwise (but<br />
your total elevation gain will<br />
be the same either way).<br />
Planning is key, and here<br />
are six considerations:<br />
➊<br />
Get your permits. You’ll<br />
need up to three permits,<br />
depending on how you do<br />
the hike.<br />
➋<br />
Water. There is, oddly, not<br />
much water available. Plan<br />
on carrying plenty, having<br />
a filter, and knowing where<br />
you can refill.<br />
➌<br />
Plan your food drops. You<br />
can either send yourself<br />
packages at USPS offices in<br />
surrounding towns or hike<br />
into town to refuel.<br />
➍<br />
Bring bear canisters to<br />
store food.<br />
➎<br />
Plan your campsites.<br />
➏<br />
Plan for contingencies.<br />
What happens if you’re<br />
injured? If you run out of<br />
food/water? Have a plan A,<br />
B, and C for all scenarios.<br />
Do<br />
you have a<br />
favorite trail in the<br />
region you’d like to see<br />
featured? Tell us all<br />

reen burial is a meaningful, affordable and<br />
G sustainable way of interment. Set amongst the<br />
rolling foothills of Placer County, a 160-acre nature<br />
preserve is home to meandering trails and old oaks. This is<br />
Morgan Oaks Eternal Preserve, a serene area for green<br />
burials, complete with exquisite natural beauty to honor a<br />
loved one’s memory.<br />
Green burial has been a popular alternative to conventional<br />
burial that allows you or your loved one to return to<br />
the earth naturally after passing. “Although an age-old<br />
tradition, it has become better known for reducing the<br />
use of toxic materials and preservatives that may pollute<br />
the earth”, says Mark Heintz, co-founder of Morgan Oaks.<br />
“Our green burial services include full-body interment,<br />
cremation remains burial, remains scattering and memorial<br />
tress so we can meet the needs of all those that are<br />
environmentally conscious.”<br />
Morgan Oaks doesn’t look like a traditional cemetery.<br />
Visitors won’t see rows of tombstones but rather Interment<br />
Gardens surrounded by walking trails, oak trees and riparian<br />
areas throughout the preserve. As you move along through<br />
this deeply personal journey, we at Morgan Oaks want you<br />
to know that we’re here every step of the way. For more<br />

the unpredictability of life. Seasons Law P.C. is here to<br />
help you plan for an uncertain future so you can put your<br />
mind at ease. We guide our clients through the important legal<br />
processes of estate planning and administration throughout life’s<br />
many seasons.<br />
Our firm offers decades of experience in creating first-time<br />
estate plans and updating existing plans as our clients’ lives<br />
change. We prepare Advance Health Care Directives, Durable<br />
Powers of Attorney for Financial Management, Wills and Trusts.<br />
At an initial consultation, we will ask you to tell us your story and<br />
your wishes for the future. We design plans across the spectrum<br />
of client needs, to include aging parents, special needs children<br />
and blended families. Once the planning is done, we strive to<br />
write documents using language that you will understand, so you<br />
have confidence that your plan reflects your wishes.<br />
In addition to preparing estate plans, we can also assist with<br />
administering estate plans. While trusts are typically favored<br />
because they do not usually require court involvement, there is<br />
a formal process for administering a trust. Our attorneys will<br />
explain the trust administration process in plain English and<br />
guide you, step by step, through to final distribution.<br />
We can also help if no estate plan was created. Our attorneys<br />
are experienced in court processes such as ‘conservatorships’,<br />
‘guardianships’ and ‘probate petitions’ to resolve those<br />
challenging situations when there are no documents in place.<br />
As a client of Seasons Law P.C., we commit to giving you the<br />
attention you need and the expertise necessary to help you<br />
weather life’s seasons with confidence. We welcome you to<br />
contact us and schedule an initial consultation. We hope to be<br />

COOL STUFF<br />
Amp It Up<br />
Retro Audio Gear<br />
by TERRY CARROLL<br />
Just a few years ago, turntables<br />
seemed to be the retro flash in<br />
the pan—yeah, not so much. Soon<br />
enough, those weaned on, and<br />
iPod users came to realize that<br />
listening takes a significant leap<br />
when you find vinyl and good<br />
speakers. Well, if you’re wanting to<br />
“amp” it up another notch, and do<br />
it with cool vintage style, here are<br />
a few integrated amplifiers with<br />
turntable capability and knockyour-socks-off<br />
sound (and looks!).<br />
NAD C<br />
3050<br />
The NAD brand<br />
has been<br />
synonymous<br />
with great sound and cool Euro design since their<br />
inception in the ’80s. The recently released C 3050,<br />
with its two power meters, wood accents, and killer<br />
sound may be one of the best values in audio today.<br />
Find it locally at paradyme.com.<br />
LEAK 230<br />
Next up is the<br />
LEAK 230.<br />
Based on a<br />
British brand<br />
of the ’70s, LEAK offers everything you need for<br />
a terrific system: power, plenty of inputs, and<br />
head-turning looks that anyone in your den will be<br />
drawn to. Find the LEAK line at musicdirect.com.<br />
MCINTOSH<br />
MA252<br />
The McIntosh<br />
MA252 takes<br />
things up a notch.<br />
This is a hybridintegrated<br />
amp,<br />
meaning the preamp is controlled by vacuum tubes<br />
while the power is solid state. Some think this<br />
combination offers the absolute best experience.<br />
My two cents? Worth. Every. Penny. Check it out at<br />
performance-audio.com.<br />

ASK THE<br />
EXPERT<br />
by BELLA NOLEN<br />
Q: What are the dangers of<br />
accumulated pet waste?<br />
A: Dog waste contains harmful,<br />
infectious bacteria such as<br />
E. coli and salmonella, as well<br />
as parasites like roundworms.<br />
Accumulated dog waste can<br />
lead to health hazards and wash<br />
into rivers, beaches, and other<br />
waterways as a contaminant when<br />
it rains. It’s important to remove<br />
and dispose of dog waste weekly<br />
to prevent adverse health effects<br />
on your family and pets.<br />

Restored<br />
to Glory<br />
Mid-Century Modern<br />
Remodel<br />
by EMILY BEST<br />
Before<br />
F<br />
ew projects are as ambitious<br />
as a whole-home remodel.<br />
From reimagining the layout to<br />
upgrading every nook and cranny, the<br />
process of breathing new life into an<br />
entire home is a testament to creativity,<br />
vision, and dedication.<br />
Summer Y. and her husband had a<br />
very clear vision for their El Dorado Hills<br />
remodel: create a beautiful, updated<br />
mid-century modern-style home that<br />
provides them with functionality and<br />
a harmonious design. To help them<br />
achieve their lofty goal, they enlisted the<br />
services of Jenny Levitsky of Ultimate<br />
Designs (ultimatedesignkitchens.com), a<br />
Placerville-based business that specializes<br />
in interior architecture, overall home<br />
remodeling, kitchen and bath design, new<br />
home design/build projects, as well as<br />
commercial and hospitality design.<br />
For Levitsky, it’s all about the client<br />
and designer collaborating as creative<br />
partners, designing a space that’s truly<br />
personalized and unique. “We allow<br />
clients to dream about the big picture<br />
while we stay focused on detailed issues,<br />
such as scale, proportion, style, longevity,<br />
Photos courtesy of Summer Y.<br />
60 stylemg.com | JULY <strong>2023</strong> | /stylemediagroup /stylemediagroup /stylemediagroup /stylemags

color, balance, and functionality.”<br />
The architecture of this home<br />
was true to the mid-century style<br />
that Summer and her husband love,<br />
but the finishes were more 1980s<br />
in design. “We were looking for a<br />
home with good bones [that needed]<br />
some help so I could try my hand at<br />
supervising a remodel, and this house<br />
fit that bill. We weren't looking for an<br />
updated home with someone else's<br />
style built in,” says Summer.<br />
The 1969, two-story, mid-century<br />
house with four bedrooms and<br />
three baths underwent an extreme<br />
transformation of bathroom<br />
and kitchen remodels, structural<br />
changes, new flooring, and interior<br />
design upgrades.<br />
The house was entirely gutted,<br />
and everything but the framing was<br />
completely changed. To bring the<br />
kitchen and dining room back to their<br />
original mid-century roots, a wall was<br />
removed to open up the area, and the<br />
previous eight-foot kitchen ceiling<br />
was re-vaulted to create a light, airy<br />
space. With the complete overhaul of<br />
the kitchen layout, space was created<br />
for an indoor laundry room.<br />
With a mid-century modern<br />
vision at the forefront of this<br />
project, Levitsky sourced tile,<br />
flooring, hardware, and interiors<br />
that were sympathetic to this<br />
much-loved era of design. Striking<br />
a delicate equilibrium between<br />
functionality and aesthetics, she<br />
created a kitchen island with a sleek<br />
stainless steel island range hood<br />
and incorporated luxury appliances<br />
to complement the modern design.<br />
The island is a masterpiece in<br />
functionality with alcove seating for<br />
three as well as discretely housing<br />
the microwave, oven, and cooktop.<br />
The kitchen is now a chef's dream,<br />
with modern appliances, ample<br />
counter space, and a large island<br />
that doubles as a gathering spot for<br />
family and friends.<br />
The open living concepts of<br />
the remodel create a casual feel,<br />
while the blend of color palettes,<br />
furniture, lighting fixtures, and<br />
decor infuse character and<br />
personality into every room.<br />
Levitsky chose a bold geometric<br />
tile for the entryway, creating an<br />
inviting atmosphere; and with the<br />
large expanse of walls, Summer and<br />
her husband can hang their curated<br />
collection of artwork.<br />
What advice does Summer<br />
have for anyone considering a full<br />
remodel? “Find a designer and a<br />
builder with whom you communicate<br />
well. It's important that everyone is<br />
available to answer questions as they<br />
come up, and it's always best when<br />
making design decisions to try to<br />
think things through to the end—<br />
changing your mind halfway through<br />
is sometimes just fine, but more often<br />
it's a huge problem!”<br />
“We try to minimize the ‘struggle’<br />
of a remodel; however, remodels<br />
do have more surprises than new<br />
builds, because you never know<br />
how well the home was built to<br />
begin with and sometimes you<br />
find the unknown surprise of bad<br />
construction, wiring, or plumbing<br />
that must be fixed,” says Levitsky.<br />
On this particular project, the<br />
discovery of a leaky foundation<br />
increased the time frame slightly,<br />
as new joists and stem wall work<br />
needed to be repaired. “Our goal<br />
was to make the process as easy as<br />
possible for our clients; despite the<br />
‘surprises’ we found along the way, we<br />
kept the project on track. Once it was<br />
time for finishes, it took about three<br />
months to finalize,” says Levitsky.<br />
“Jenny was key in designing a<br />
kitchen that functions perfectly for<br />
the way we live. She helped with<br />
aesthetic choices all over the house,<br />
too—from tile and grout to the<br />
color on the walls,” says Summer.<br />
“She was great at giving me space to<br />
make design decisions but gently<br />
stepping in when I was running off in<br />
the wrong direction. She helped us<br />
create a warm, beautiful home and<br />
was also just really fun to work with!”<br />
From the initial spark of<br />
inspiration to the final reveal,<br />
Levitsky and her team at Ultimate<br />
Designs turned a dated house<br />
into the functional and beautiful<br />
mid-century modern home of<br />
Summer’s dreams.<br />

PEOPLE & THEIR PETS<br />
compiled by MEGAN WISKUS<br />
Our pets hold a special place in our<br />
hearts—and these pictures prove it.<br />
Paws for a moment as you peruse this<br />
pictorial of local animal companions.<br />
“Belle enjoys her daily walks,<br />
especially if they involve water.<br />
She loves taking dips in the<br />
American River, Folsom Lake,<br />
and Lake Natoma whenever she<br />
gets the chance!”—Carol Ritter<br />
Sunny<br />
Nani<br />
“Nani is a five-year-old mini-Australian<br />
shepherd who loves hiking and camping,<br />
especially when there's a big group<br />
of kids. She makes it her job to keep<br />
everyone together! She’ll talk your ear<br />
off (if she doesn't lick it off!). When it<br />
comes to water, she gets a 10/10 for<br />
diving and swimming and can even<br />
paddleboard. We love her huge smiles<br />
when she's romping around in nature,<br />
and she's the best companion to our<br />
active kiddo. They're two peas in a<br />
pod!”—Jaymie Smith<br />
Legolas & Gimli<br />

“Brothers Legolas<br />
and Gimli are<br />
10-year-old West<br />
Highland white<br />
terriers. They’re<br />
big loves with<br />
lots of energy and<br />
even howl like<br />
wolves!”<br />
—Jill Phifer<br />
“Sunny will do all her tricks from puppy<br />
school at the same time (and without<br />
any commands!) to get a treat. She’ll eat<br />
just about anything but pears and hates<br />
getting into cars but loves the destination<br />
(especially sunrise hikes). She’s incredibly<br />
smart and enjoys being with her human<br />
family. We love her so much!”—Diana Loo<br />
“Princess Willow Ann (the kitty<br />
between the two stuffed toys) is a<br />
purebred Bluepoint Siamese. She<br />
likes sitting on the back of the couch<br />
and looking out the window at the<br />
hummingbirds feeding. She usually<br />
sleeps most of the day, but tries to<br />
keep me up all night by playing and<br />
jumping on my bed.”—Jonnie Froyd<br />
Willow Ann<br />

Annie<br />
Rocco<br />
“Rocco is a very energetic<br />
Maltipoo who identifies as a<br />
schnauzer. He loves sitting<br />
on the laps of all humans<br />
who are in his presence,<br />
and also enjoys watching<br />
Rumble videos and dice<br />
games. We’re thankful to<br />
have him as our fur baby.<br />
In this photo, he’s modeling<br />
a handmade sweater from<br />
Esther at Pure Barre El<br />
Dorado Hills.”—Jeni Angileri<br />
“Annie is a four-year-old standard poodle<br />
who’s in training to be a PTSD service dog.<br />
She had five homes before she was two<br />
years old but finally has her forever family.<br />
When not working, she can be found chasing<br />
squirrels and hanging with her RRUFF Dog<br />
Park friends.”—Vicki Curtis<br />

Harper Mae<br />
“Mavie is a<br />
two-year-old<br />
rescue who is<br />
finally living his<br />
dream life. His<br />
favorite things<br />
to do are play<br />
the ‘one, two,<br />
three cookie<br />
game,’ shred<br />
paper towel<br />
rolls, and go on<br />
snuffle walks.<br />
We love him so<br />
much!”—Bonnie<br />
& Gary Wagner<br />
Mavie<br />
“Harper Mae is a twoyear-old<br />
rescued pitty.<br />
She’s very attached to<br />
her toys and bounces<br />
around like a goat! Her<br />
best friend is our blind<br />
Siamese cat. They play<br />
every morning upon<br />
waking up. We adore<br />
everything about her<br />
funny personality and<br />
are lucky she rescued<br />
us.”—Kathy & Terry<br />
Raymond<br />
Charley<br />
“Charley is a three-year-old labradoodle. We<br />
saw her baby picture—and her soulful eyes—<br />
and it was love at first sight. She’s perfectly<br />
imperfect, spoiled rotten, and loves long car<br />
trips (where I even ride in the backseat; her<br />
human dad says it’s like Driving Miss Daisy).”<br />
—Pam & Rick Copeland<br />
“Biscuit Banana is<br />
a seven-year-old<br />
West Highland<br />
terrier. Her special<br />
trick is clapping,<br />
and she also<br />
knows how to<br />
catch a stray fly<br />
when it’s trapped<br />
indoors. She<br />
loves bananas<br />
and snuggling,<br />
and we love her<br />
sweet, gentle<br />
personality.”<br />

Bella<br />
“Bella is a 10-yearold<br />
border collie.<br />
She’s incredibly<br />
smart (she knows the<br />
names of over 20 of<br />
her stuffed animals!),<br />
loves playing<br />
Frisbee, chasing<br />
bubbles, hiking, and<br />
swimming at the lake<br />
and ocean. When we<br />
go to the park, she’ll<br />
go up the stairs and<br />
down the slide at<br />
the playground. She<br />
travels everywhere<br />
with me, helps me in<br />
so many ways, and<br />
is so loved.”—Kelli<br />
Ashcraft<br />
Dolly Sue<br />
“Dolly Sue is a two-and-a-half-year-old Pommy-poo (half<br />
Pomeranian, half poodle). She loves stealing things she knows<br />
she’s not supposed to have, then appearing right in front of me<br />
with it in her mouth. As she waits, she hopes I’ll say, ‘Drop it!’ so<br />
that she gets a treat! Funny thing is, when her brother, Peanut,<br />
hears those words, he comes running hoping for a treat as well.<br />
Both Dolly Sue and Peanut have saved me, keeping me going after<br />
my husband passed away last year. “—Mary Murphy<br />
Michael<br />
“Michael, our fluffy ragdoll<br />
cat, is full of personality!<br />
He loves attention, playing<br />
hide-and-seek, and watching<br />
the birds from his window<br />
perch.”—JoAnn DeLise<br />
Polly<br />
“I got Polly as a rescue,<br />
and she was a typical mini-<br />
English bull terrier—always<br />
making me laugh. Sadly, she<br />
passed away about a year<br />
ago at 14-years-old.”<br />
—Barbara Hotchkiss<br />
“Josie loves hanging out<br />
(and eating everything,<br />
but especially carrots)<br />
in our garden. She also<br />
enjoys movie night<br />
because of her other<br />
favorite food: popcorn.<br />
One of her other favorite<br />
things is chasing<br />
squirrels in our backyard.<br />
She runs our house and<br />
knows it. She’ll turn 11<br />
this year, and we cherish<br />
every moment we can<br />
with her."—Hale Family<br />
Blue<br />
&<br />
Inka<br />
Josie<br />
“Blue, our husky, had two previous homes before<br />
being rescued from the streets and saved by El<br />
Dorado County Animal Services. She ran right to the<br />
fence when we got out of our car and did well when<br />
introduced to our much older black Lab at the time.<br />
Almost a year and a half later, we drove to a shelter<br />
in Apple Valley and met Inka, who had been rescued<br />
from a hoarder of 40 dogs. It took months for her<br />
to adjust to us and her permanent home, but as the<br />
photo shows, she and Blue are fast friends and the<br />
four of us are a very happy family.”<br />
—Sharon & Steve Caputo<br />
“Corkie was rescued from El Dorado County Animal Services 14 years ago.<br />
She loves her squeaky toys and even though the puppy trainer told us, ‘No<br />
more than five,’ she has 30 and plays with them all. When we even think<br />
about removing one, it’s like she has ESP and it becomes her favorite from<br />
then on! She’s the reason I wake up in the morning—not just because I love<br />
her, but she insists on a 5:15 a.m. dental chew. She was Miss <strong>July</strong> one year<br />
in the ‘Canines on Main’ calendar put out by The Bookery. She loves the<br />
daily walks SHE takes ME on and has her favorites on the walking trail. I<br />
struck gold when she agreed to come home with me!”—Judy Geister<br />

Teddy<br />
Hershey Kisses<br />
& Coca Cola<br />
“Eleven-year-old Hershey<br />
Kisses and three-year-old Coca<br />
Cola love swimming, playing<br />
together, and spending time in<br />
the great outdoors. Both girls<br />
make me laugh every day.”<br />
—Wendy Lowes<br />
“Teddy likes chicken<br />
but not Taco Bell sauce.<br />
She’s a fashionista who<br />
loves to dress up and<br />
wear different outfits. She<br />
won’t go to bed without<br />
pajamas!”—Annie Puska<br />
Paisley<br />
"Paisley is our two-year-old<br />
‘super mutt’ that lives for fun<br />
in the sun. As soon as our<br />
screen door opens, she darts<br />
for her Big Joe floaty to ride<br />
the waves. "—Nate Fistner<br />
Piper & Indigo<br />
“Piper is a pure English Lab who’s eventempered,<br />
gets along with all people<br />
and animals, and loves to hike (she’s<br />
probably logged over 100 miles in her<br />
lifetime!). She’s not much of a lovey,<br />
cuddly dog but always wants to be near<br />
her pack. Considering how she loves to<br />
graze in the grass and could care less<br />
about playing fetch or swimming, she<br />
acts more like a goat than a Lab! Indigo<br />
is a mutt (a chihuahua mix of some sort)<br />
and the opposite of Piper, personalitywise.<br />
She can’t get enough love and<br />
snuggles, doesn’t mind other animals<br />
(but would rather be with her humans),<br />
and could play fetch and swim all day<br />
long.”—Emily Roberson & Simon Wiesner<br />
Vinny<br />
& Enzo<br />
“Vinny is older so, naturally, way more relaxed than<br />
Enzo, who often gets the zoomies, tearing around like<br />
a Tasmanian devil. Enzo also likes to burrow and bury<br />
himself under blankets, and Vinny tries to uncover<br />
him. They get along fabulously, and their best trick is<br />
singing/howling together. Enzo visits our elderly friend<br />
at the care home next door every day.”—Kelly Leitzell<br />

“After four pedigreed shih tzus, Dolly is our<br />
first rescue (we adopted her from Foothill Dog<br />
Rescue after her extensive one year ‘rebuild’ and<br />
recovery after being hit by a car). She had one<br />
eye removed and reconstruction of her hips and<br />
pelvis necessitating dedicated therapy by a foster<br />
caregiver. She now bears no sign of her nearfatal<br />
experience and is a devoted, loving, sweet<br />
reminder that dogs can teach us so much about<br />
strength and courage.”—Karen Bookey<br />
“Henry and Frannie Lou are my snuggly,<br />
rambunctious beagles. They’re mostly known by<br />
friends and family for their silly personalities.<br />
Frannie can be very jealous and protective and<br />
talks with a lot of fiery emotion! Henry, on the<br />
other hand, is a big cry baby for snuggles and<br />
often uses his heartbreaking beagle bay howl to<br />
get what he wants.”—Dana Fedor<br />

“Hank is a German shorthair pointer that<br />
loves all food, but especially bacon. He’s<br />
active, loves the beach and swimming,<br />
and can always be found with his people.<br />
He also snores like a human. We adore<br />
him, because he’s incredibly sensitive and<br />
loving.”—Shaunn & Danielle Petrosine<br />

PUBLIC<br />
PET-<br />
IQUETTE<br />
By Kourtney Jason<br />
Not all dogs will love the dog park<br />
or being out and about in public;<br />
some get triggered around too<br />
many humans or other dogs. Here<br />
are some tips and reminders to help<br />
you manage your dog’s personality<br />
when you’re out of the house.<br />
“Lenny Bruce is a two-year-old silky<br />
terrier who loves his ball but hates<br />
car rides. He’s super cuddly and<br />
especially loves neck kisses. He’ll<br />
wake us up in the morning throwing<br />
his neck on our mouths trying to get<br />
some loving.”—Nico Bonvouloir &<br />
Michael Park<br />
Lenny Bruce<br />
Be present. Always keep an<br />
eye on your dog, paying attention<br />
to their comfort level, and look<br />
for signs of stress and bullying if<br />
they’re overstimulated. Make sure<br />
you know when to take your dog<br />
home.<br />
Be considerate of others.<br />
Understand the leash rules/laws<br />
wherever you go. Be cautious<br />
as you enter and exit dog parks,<br />
practicing proper techniques at<br />
double-gated parks.<br />
Be proactive. We all know dogs<br />
get excited, will bark, and can jump<br />
on people. Make sure you know<br />
how to communicate with your pup<br />
to dissipate the excitement level.<br />
Pick up their poop. Don’t be<br />
that person who isn’t prepared with<br />
baggies to clean up after your dog.<br />
Pack supplies and treats.<br />
Made in Rocklin, Campfire Treats<br />
(campfiretreats.com) are all-natural,<br />
bite-sized dog training treats. Nongreasy,<br />
odor-free, and small enough<br />
to fit comfortably in your hand or<br />
pocket, they’re perfect for training<br />
(or praising!) on the go.<br />
Coco<br />
“Coco loves the beach,<br />
taking hikes, and playing<br />
ball. She’s a rescue and is<br />
a very happy and devoted<br />
girl.”—Deb Doyle<br />
Sheldon & Harper<br />
“Sheldon and his big sister, Harper, are the most loving family<br />
members and particularly enjoy snuggling (a lot!). Sheldon likes<br />
to go on Facetime and moves his head from side to side to let you<br />
know you have his full attention. Harper is the understanding and<br />
mellow big sister, who thinks all problems can be solved by a ‘toy.’<br />
She’ll quickly bring you one if she thinks you’re hurt or ‘crying.’”<br />
—Maryann Martinez Lansangan<br />
Finnegan & Lilywen<br />
“Finnegan and Lilywen (Lily) are the best of<br />
friends. They’re ambassadors for local nonprofits<br />
by participating in 5K walks. Although they’re not<br />
actually siblings, they act like it. If you ask, Lily will<br />
say she’s the boss. They bring immense joy to my<br />
life.”—Margaret Ervin<br />

“Benny James is a friendly cat who will approach anyone, adores<br />
attention, and often purrs when being pet. He’ll let anyone dress<br />
him up, whether it be in sunglasses, a hat, or a shirt. He likes<br />
sleeping, eating, looking out the window, and spending time with<br />
family, but dislikes perfume, lollipops, deodorant, and sitting on<br />
people’s laps.”—Gabby Montes<br />
Gucci & Doyle<br />
“Gucci and Doyle became<br />
brothers last year, and their<br />
special tricks are jumping<br />
on a boogie board in the<br />
pool to be together, running<br />
around the yard while both<br />
holding the same stick,<br />
and welcoming anyone<br />
they see with kisses. Their<br />
favorite foods are sprinkled<br />
dog cookies and pig ears.<br />
They’re incredibly quirky,<br />
make everyone laugh at<br />
their goofiness, and are<br />
both a bundle of joy.”<br />
—Angie Elliott<br />
Benny James<br />
“Ten-year-old Hadley and two-year-old Riley are my<br />
rescue Keeshonden and amazing companions. They<br />
love going for walks and food, but most of all getting<br />
lots of love and belly rubs!”—Linda Rodenspiel<br />
Trixie<br />
Sunny<br />
“Trixie’s favorite things are homemade fried<br />
rice, car rides, and outdoor adventures.<br />
She has a unique way of greeting each<br />
member of our family, gets jealous when<br />
I talk to people during Zoom meetings,<br />
and is a world-class squirrel chaser.<br />
Delivery drivers and big dogs are her worst<br />
enemies, and she’s the best at knowing<br />
when you’re sad (she’ll come right over<br />
and deliver her best loves!).”—Jaime Berry<br />
“Sunny is our four-year-old, almost<br />
80-pound, quiet, sweet, lovable golden<br />
retriever. She’s picky about her food, but<br />
for certain treats she’ll do all her tricks to<br />
get them. There’s no person or animal she<br />
doesn't like. She sleeps much of the night<br />
with us and will watch us until we wake<br />
up and then put her face next to ours to be<br />
pet.”—Mila Allen<br />

Sweetie Pie, a<br />
Maltese/Yorkie<br />

dog is near, and<br />
she thinks she’s a<br />
rottweiler and goes<br />
crazy.”—Sherree<br />

Whether you’re drawn to historically hip hotels, beautiful beachfront inns, or sumptuous<br />
stays with high-end hospitality, the properties featured here will make you want to pack<br />
your bags, pronto.<br />
Hotel<br />
Drisco<br />
2901 Pacific Avenue,<br />
San Francisco,<br />
415-346-2880,<br />
hoteldrisco.com<br />
With an off-the-beaten-touristpath<br />
location in posh Pacific<br />
Heights, a stay at the four-star<br />
Hotel Drisco feels miles away from<br />
the hustle and bustle of the city’s<br />
more notorious neighborhoods. And<br />
though the renovated rooms (48<br />
in all), luxurious linens, and lavish<br />
interiors are all reasons to cozy<br />
up at the elegant 1903 Edwardian<br />
inn, it’s the impeccable service,<br />
hotel’s commitment to sustainability<br />
(rooftop beehives provide the<br />
hotel’s honey) and ample amenities<br />
(like complimentary e-bikes for easy<br />
exploring) that make a stay here<br />
extra special. Inclusive of your room<br />
rate is a gourmet buffet breakfast<br />
that rivals any restaurant (expect<br />
a generous spread of still-warm<br />
scones, smoked salmon, local jams,<br />
just-baked breads, made-to-order<br />
omelets, and espresso drinks) and<br />
an evening reception with unlimited<br />
artisan cheeses, charcuterie, and hearty<br />
hors d'oeuvres, plus fine California wines<br />
and craft brews. For travelers seeking<br />
upscale accommodations with serious<br />
staying-put appeal, Hotel Drisco checks<br />
all the boxes, and beyond.<br />
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: Though<br />
the property predominately attracts<br />
couples and a more mature clientele,<br />
kids are also warmly welcomed and will even be pampered with some<br />
age-appropriate amenities upon arrival.<br />

Santa Cruz<br />
175 West Cliff Drive,<br />

Step inside a lively, coastal<br />
oasis and wake up to the waves<br />
crashing at Dream Inn Santa<br />

is just steps from the sand and<br />
the town’s top tourist attractions.<br />
From the light-filled lobby; to the<br />
surf-inspired, retro-chic rooms<br />
outfitted with tinges of turquoise<br />
and accents of orange; and the<br />
oceanfront pool that often hosts<br />
exciting activities (yoga! taco<br />

a stay here is<br />
what vacation<br />
dreams are made<br />
of. Harking back<br />
to 1963, the hotel<br />
still holds tight to<br />
its mid-century<br />
heritage, but<br />
thanks to a multi-million-dollar renovation, has all the modern amenities<br />
and creature comforts discerning travelers crave.<br />
aplenty) and on-site restaurant, Lola—where<br />
glamour and good food collide. Set in Nevada<br />
City’s charming, mom-and-pop-shop-filled<br />
downtown district and surrounded by Sierra Foothill<br />
scenery, a stay here is akin to striking gold.<br />
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: While Wi-Fi is available (and fast!), you<br />
won’t find a TV tucked away in rooms—the hope is that guests will<br />
tune into each other and the natural surroundings instead.<br />
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: Avail of the “California Dreamin’ 60th<br />
Anniversary” package (offered through December) and receive a dinner<br />
credit (the on-site restaurant, Jack O’Neill, is a must for breakfast, lunch,<br />
dinner, and all the eats and drinks in between), welcome bottle of vino<br />
and celebration glasses, discounted room rate, and more.<br />

Step into a piece of the past at<br />
Nevada City’s National Exchange<br />
Hotel (aka, the Nash)—one of<br />
the oldest continuously operating<br />
properties West of the Rockies—whose<br />
storied (and now boldly wallpapered)<br />
walls were erected in 1856. Though<br />
a lot has changed since the hotel’s<br />
inception (the property recently<br />
underwent a massive top-to-bottom<br />
restoration), the Victorian-era<br />
opulence—along with much of the<br />
original architecture—remains. Upon<br />
entering the registered historical<br />
landmark, your eyes won’t know where<br />
to land first. The funky-tiled floors?<br />
Richly hued, velvet sofas? Brass<br />
accents and antiquities sprinkled<br />
throughout? After geeking out on the<br />
interior’s perfect blend of old and new,<br />
you’ll be equally impressed when you<br />
step inside the grand guest rooms<br />
(each with carefully curated vintage furnishings and modern amenities<br />
Lafayette Park<br />
Hotel & Spa<br />
3287 Mount Diablo<br />
Boulevard, Lafayette,<br />
855-382-8632,<br />
lafayetteparkhotel.com<br />
If a trip to the French countryside isn’t<br />
the cards this year, worry not. You can<br />
experience joie de vivre (minus the jet<br />
lag) with a visit to Lafayette Park Hotel &<br />
Spa—a four-star regal retreat that greets<br />
guests with its cheerful yellow façade,<br />
well-groomed grounds (full of fountains,<br />
secret gardens, and beautiful blooms), and<br />
serene setting. Luckily, its luxe looks aren’t<br />
deceiving either. The interior is equally<br />
impressive, thanks to genuine service that’s<br />
professional without being pretentious,<br />
tastefully classic decor, and light, bright<br />
bedrooms that boast all the comforts<br />
of home. Spend the day relaxing at the<br />
on-site spa or sunning poolside with a<br />
good book. Hungry for elevated California<br />
cuisine with a French flair? Book a table at<br />
The Park Bistro & Bar for farm-fresh flavors<br />
in a classy yet casual setting. Should you<br />
feel the need to peel yourself away from<br />
the premises, tree-lined Lafayette—whose<br />
downtown is dotted with everything from a<br />
brewery and bistro to boutiques—is within<br />
close proximity.<br />
in<br />
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: The<br />
property—part of the Woodside<br />
Collection portfolio (a distinctive group of locally owned, independent<br />
hotels and resorts in Northern California) is preparing for a substantial<br />
refresh of its guest rooms, meeting spaces, spa, and restaurant. The<br />
revamp is scheduled to debut in 2024.<br />

istoric Folsom is widely known as a place that perfectly blends the charm<br />
of the past with a modern, urban vibe. While a stroll down Sutter Street<br />
takes us back to simpler times, the shops and restaurants are at the forefront of<br />
contemporary trends—including the newly reopened Hacienda Real, which offers<br />
a stunning patio, welcoming atmosphere, and refreshing drinks.<br />
Situated near Lake Natoma, the eatery is an ideal spot for unwinding postpaddleboarding<br />
or enjoying a relaxed evening overlooking the downtown district.<br />
Previously Hacienda del Rio, a long-standing favorite among Folsom's culinary<br />
scene, the rebranded, modernized establishment is “committed to the highest level<br />
of integrity in the ingredients and preparation when making their food.”<br />

HOURS: 11 a.m.-10 p.m. (Friday-Saturday); 11<br />

p.m. (Tuesday); closed Monday<br />
TRY THIS: Ceviche, Mezcal BBQ Sliders, Pozole<br />

N-Totchos, Sparkling Watermelon Margarita,<br />
Churros with Ice Cream<br />
DRINKS: Full bar; beer, wine, & cocktails<br />
TAB: $$<br />
HEADS-UP: Happy hour from 3-6 p.m.<br />
Wednesday-Friday and all-day Tuesday; entrées<br />
include rice and your choice of beans (black,<br />
pinto, or refried; can also substitute Mexi-Tots);<br />
kids’ menu; extensive cocktail and mocktail<br />
offerings; spacious upstairs deck with views of<br />
Sutter Street; vegetarian and gluten-free options<br />
Upon our arrival, we were promptly<br />
taken care of, and our server struck the<br />
perfect balance between being attentive<br />
and giving us space to chill.<br />
Once seated, we enjoyed<br />
complimentary chips and two types<br />
of salsas while perusing the menu. If<br />
you're a fan of margaritas, you won't be<br />
disappointed by the generous size and<br />
delightful taste of the house (“classic”)<br />
margarita. Thirsty for something more?<br />
You’re in luck; they offer “build-yourown”<br />
margaritas with a choice of fun,<br />
fruity add-ins, like watermelon, spicy<br />
peach, prickly pear, or pineapple; plus a<br />
lengthy list of craft cocktails, mocktails,<br />
and cervezas.<br />
For appetizers, we opted for the<br />
ceviche, a refreshing choice on a hot<br />
day (or any day, for that matter) that met<br />
our expectations. It was a solid start.<br />
Moving onto the mains, we ordered<br />
the vampiro asada taco plate, whose<br />
description (marinated steak topped<br />
with avocado salsa, cabbage, radish,<br />
Oaxacan cheese, and lime) was<br />
mouthwatering, along with the combo<br />
steak-and-shrimp fajitas. Even though<br />
the tacos didn't quite live up to the<br />
hype, they were still an enjoyable<br />
entrée, especially if you appreciate fresh<br />
ingredients and pops of color on your<br />
plate; the side of house-made beans and<br />
rice were a nice touch, too.<br />
Ceviche<br />
The fajitas were quite tasty, thanks to<br />
flavorful steak, shrimp that was cooked<br />
to perfection, fresh vegetables, and ample<br />
accoutrements (rice, beans, guacamole,<br />
sour cream, pico de gallo, tortillas).<br />
For diners worried about putting<br />
a dent in their wallets (some recent<br />
reviews have criticized prices), the<br />
eatery offers a weekly happy hour—<br />
Wednesday-Friday from 3-6 p.m. or<br />
all day on Tuesdays—where drinks<br />
(margaritas and beers) and appetizers<br />
(like the Carnitas Street Tacos and<br />
Nachos Supreme) are generously<br />
discounted.<br />
If you're seeking a lively dining<br />
destination with an impressive patio,<br />
Hacienda Real won't disappoint. It boasts<br />
a remarkable staff, friendly<br />
service, delightful drinks,<br />
and a diverse range<br />
of Mexican and Tex-<br />
Mex dishes.<br />
We can only<br />
hope that they<br />
continue to make<br />
progress, as they<br />
have since reopening.<br />

8675 Auburn Folsom Road, I found the best dim sum. Literally. It’s tucked inside a shopping center<br />
Granite Bay, 916-791-7990 along Auburn Folsom Road near Douglas Boulevard, and it’s called<br />
bestdimsum.net Best Dim Sum. I took my mom for lunch (she’s a self-proclaimed<br />
dim sum expert), and we ended up ordering more than we could<br />
eat in one sitting, which just meant one thing: leftovers! We had BBQ Pork Buns,<br />
Siu Mai, Fried Shrimp Balls, Shrimp Dumplings, and Honey Walnut Shrimp.<br />
(They offer more than just dim sum!) The BBQ pork buns were soft and fluffy<br />
and steamed to perfection. The siu mai, a dumpling filled with ground pork and<br />
shrimp, also had a wonderful texture and flavor. We saw an interesting-looking dish<br />
heading to another table and asked what it was, then ordered what turned out<br />

to be fried shrimp balls. The shrimp was formed into a ball then rolled over<br />
spring roll strips and deep-fried. They arrived with the strips sticking up<br />
haphazardly and somehow tasted crispy and soft at the same time.<br />
Oh, and the honey walnut shrimp? It was one of the best renditions<br />
I’ve had. I highly recommend it. Finish your meal with an order of Egg<br />
Tarts—a yummy, sweet custard inside a flaky pastry that was seriously<br />
scrumptious. My mom and I are already planning our next visit!<br />

THE<br />
Hot<br />
LIST<br />
Top Dogs<br />
by NELLY KISLYANKA | photos by TAYLOR GILLESPIE<br />
Move over ho-hum hot dogs—fancy franks are popping<br />
up on menus all over town, and they’re nothing like<br />
the ones of yesteryear. Local eateries are revamping<br />
the comfort food classic with elevated ingredients and<br />
funky flavor pairings. Jump on the haute dog cart and<br />
sample these 10 versions with unique, mouthwatering<br />
twists. And the wiener is…<br />
flour-based batter to create a crispy<br />
outer shell that gives way to light, fluffy<br />
breading. The satisfying texture and fun<br />
flavors are likely why Korean corn dogs<br />
have become all the craze. The crispy<br />
ramen offering is one of Mochinut’s<br />
most popular and features a 100%<br />
beef hot dog coated in batter, rolled<br />
in dry ramen noodles, and deep-fried.<br />
It’s then drizzled with your choice of<br />
sauces (keep it classic with ketchup and<br />
mustard or go crazy with garlic aioli)<br />
and toppings. Did we mention you can<br />
also order your K-dog “half and half”—<br />
half hot dog, half mozzarella cheese<br />
center? 4191 Thrive Drive, Suite 120,<br />
Roseville, 916-771-2776, mochinut.com<br />
yes, there is: the Montecristdog from<br />
C. Knight's Steakhouse! It’s a fun<br />
re-creation of the much-loved sub that<br />
you won’t soon forget. The hot dog<br />
version of the classic sammie starts<br />
with a beer-battered, high-quality beef<br />
frank in a toasty, freshly baked bun.<br />
To create the flavor-layering a Monte<br />
Cristo is known for, C. Knight’s tops their<br />
dog with salty bacon, piquant white<br />
cheddar cheese, blackberry jam, and a<br />
dusting of powdered sugar, and serves<br />
it with your choice of house-cut fries<br />
or a green salad. 2085 Vine Street,<br />
Suite 101, El Dorado Hills, 916-235-1730,<br />
cknightssteakhouse.com<br />
Sun’s out, buns out! Hot dog buns,<br />
that is. The Barrel House Dog from<br />
Moksa Barrel House is not your<br />
run-of-the-mill ballpark frank. It’s the<br />
childhood classic all grown up, thanks to<br />
top-tier ingredients and a put-together<br />
presentation. The familiar favorite<br />
begins with a gourmet American wagyu<br />
beef hot dog from Snake River Farms,<br />
followed by dill pickles, diced red<br />
onions, sliced tomatoes, yellow mustard,<br />
and pepperoncini on a pillowy soft<br />
potato bun. Pair it with a pint of beer or<br />
a scoop of Straus Family Creamery soft<br />
serve, and you have a home run. 10007<br />
Foothills Boulevard, Suite 180, Roseville,<br />
916-783-1444, moksabarrelhouse.com<br />
The Crispy Ramen K-Dog from<br />
Mochinut is anything but the lackluster<br />
corndog you enjoyed in elementary<br />
school. Instead of dense (and sometimes<br />
soggy) breading, Mochinut uses rice<br />
If you’re vegetarian, there’s no reason<br />
you can’t also jump aboard the hot dog<br />
bandwagon. Dog Haus Biergarten has<br />
not one, but two delicious veggie dog<br />
options, including the Sooo Veggie<br />
Dog that’s “sooo” good and “sooo” very<br />
Californian (hello, creamy avocado<br />
and wild arugula!). Served in a grilled<br />
Kings Hawaiian roll, the plant-based<br />
hot Italian “sausage” is also topped<br />
with fresh tomatoes, crispy onions, and<br />
a drizzle of spicy basil aioli. 1501 Blue<br />
Oaks Boulevard, Roseville, 916-846-<br />
7699, doghaus.com<br />
Is there anything more decadent<br />
than the sweet, salty, and cheesy<br />
combination of a Monte Cristo? Well,<br />
If a hot dog and a Reuben sandwich<br />
were to have a love child, it would be<br />
the Reuben Dog from Shoestring. The<br />
Placerville mainstay since 1959 grills an<br />
eight-inch all-beef hot dog, tops it with<br />
melty Swiss cheese, tucks it into a soft<br />
bun with signature Rueben toppings—<br />
pastrami and sauerkraut—and drizzles<br />
it with Thousand Island dressing. Talk<br />
about a loaded dog! Just be sure to<br />
wash it down with one of Shoestring’s<br />
famous milkshakes. 1320 Broadway,<br />

hear. The all-beef hot dog in a toasted<br />
split-top bun is dressed to impress with<br />
pickled red onions, tangy relish, and<br />
sweet-spicy mustard (plus your pick of<br />
side: fries, salad, or onion rings) for a<br />
flavor explosion that’ll make your mouth<br />
water. Speaking of dogs, their patio is<br />
dog-friendly (and if your pooch is polite,<br />
they’ll likely give them a biscuit, too!).<br />

Parker’s Hot Dogs of Santa Cruz has<br />
been slinging dogs since the late 1940s,<br />
so they know a thing or two about a<br />
good one. Their Chicago Dog lives up<br />
to the motto that defines a memorable<br />
Chicago-style hot dog: “dragged<br />
through the garden.” Stacked on top<br />
of Parker’s 100% all-beef hot dog are<br />
the foundational mustard, relish, and<br />
fresh diced onions. Next, it gets loaded<br />
with fresh tomatoes and cucumber<br />
slices, crunchy pickle spears, and tangy<br />
pepperoncini. Now that’s a Chicago dog<br />
any Chi-town native would be proud<br />
to endorse! 1605 Douglas Boulevard,<br />

Round up the gang and head to<br />
Nubbin’s Drive-In for a fun experience<br />
and a dawg-gone good Chili Dog.<br />
Nubbin’s is a throwback to another era<br />
when drive-ins and poodle skirts were<br />
all the rage. The retro dive serves all<br />
your diner favorites, from malts and<br />
milkshakes to double-bacon burgers,<br />
but it’s the chili-topped dog that reigns<br />
supreme—thanks to a fresh hot dog,<br />
soft bun, and hefty helping of steaming<br />
hot, hearty chili. Order crinkle-cut fries<br />
on the side and a blue raspberry slush<br />
to complete your order! 308 Washington<br />

“What’s in a name?” Not to contradict<br />
Shakespeare, but it’s all in the name<br />
when it comes to the Atomic Dog from<br />
Roseville-based food truck Arlington<br />
Brothers. Be warned: This dog comes<br />
with a fiery kick. A smoked hot link<br />
sits nestled within a fluffy bun that’s<br />
loaded with fun, house-made toppings,<br />
like beer beans (organic pinto beans<br />
pressure-infused with a local pilsner<br />
and house-made veggie stock). Other<br />
toppings include fresh red onions,<br />
pickled jalapeños, “Killer Kim-chee”<br />
(traditional kimchi with hot chilis),<br />
and hickory-smoked bacon crumbles.<br />
Taking the heat (and flavor) up a notch<br />
is Arlington Brothers’ own Stinging<br />
Scorpion Mustard—yellow mustard<br />
infused with Trinidad Scorpion Peppers—<br />
and the hottest condiment they make:<br />
Haunted Ketchup (caramelized tomato<br />
ketchup with ghost peppers). Now that’s<br />
a flavor bomb for your taste buds!<br />
Roseville, 916-790-9055, instagram.<br />
com/arlington.brothers.sacramento<br />
It’s been said that the secret is in the<br />
pudding, but at Big Boss Café, it’s in<br />
the sauce. The house-made remy sauce<br />
that’s generously drizzled on their<br />
Denmark Dog is a mayonnaise-based<br />
condiment with fresh herbs, garlic, and<br />
black pepper that you’ll want to bottle<br />
up and take home. Sauce aside, you’ll<br />
also bite into an all-beef Polish dog<br />
and locally baked bun, plus Big Boss’<br />
house-made pickles, stone-ground<br />
mustard, and crispy fried onions. Do<br />
yourself a favor and try the peach<br />
sweet tea made with real peaches to<br />
accompany your order. 2756 Sunrise<br />

Terry Carroll, publisher of STYLE <strong>Magazine</strong>, and CASA El Dorado Executive<br />
Director Amy Pooley<br />
CASA El Dorado provides<br />
support, empowerment, and<br />
a voice for abused, neglected,<br />
and at-risk community youth and<br />
families. The heart of their program is<br />
the Court Appointed Special Advocate<br />
(CASA), a specially trained and<br />
supervised community volunteer who’s<br />
appointed by a juvenile court judge.<br />
CASA advocates make a difference<br />
in the lives of children by researching<br />
and monitoring cases involving<br />
children in foster care and the juvenile<br />
justice system. The advocates build<br />
caring, consistent relationships with<br />
their “CASA kids” by spending time<br />
with them and gathering information<br />
about their life so they can report back<br />
to the judge.<br />
By elevating the child’s voice in<br />
court, the judge can make more<br />
informed decisions<br />
as to what services and support are in the<br />
child’s best interest—decisions that can<br />
have life-altering ramifications.<br />
“We’re incredibly grateful to serve in a<br />
community that unites over like-minded<br />
goals. Working with our local partners,<br />
we can more effectively help break the<br />
intergenerational cycle of child abuse<br />
and neglect, help stabilize families and<br />
homes, and improve the lives of our most<br />
vulnerable community youth,” notes<br />
CASA El Dorado Executive Director Amy<br />
Pooley.<br />
Since CASA El Dorado’s inception in<br />
1992, the organization has served over<br />
3,500 children.<br />
