Rotary BBQ Review, 2014

Good things going on in the community! I was at Marna O'Brien park today and not only did I and my daughter have a good time I saw lots of people enjoying themselves(I saw Supervisor Kevin Jeffries there!)!
These days it is often easier to find out what is going on in other countries than it is to keep informed on what is going on in our own cities.
I have lived here since 1992 and I can tell you our city has a lot going on that even I never knew about! With great people who have been doing things for years(decades even) to better the community.
 I invite you to go to the city website to "stay connected" and I also invite you to join a local FB group(one of which is https://www.facebook.com/groups/Wildomar.CA/) there are others out there for specific areas in the city(Windsong and The Farm each have one). I now invite you to please enjoy Joseph Morabito's blog on todays event(for more of his blogs go to http://wildomarrap.blogspot.com/ ):


Rotary BBQ Review, 2014

I wasn't sure what to expect from today's event. I was hoping for an overflow crowd, where limos were dropping off people and the line up to the porta-potties were twelve deep... but this isn't Coachella. ☺

It was one of those days that you needed sunscreen, even if you didn't think you did. It started off overcast, which was terrific for an outdoor event, but by noon the clouds parted to sunshine though it never got hot.

—(o)—

When I see four of the five city council members at an event it makes me wonder two things.

First, it makes me wonder, if when I was a kid, whether those city council members came to the local events. Somehow I doubt it.

Second, it makes me wonder why the fifth council member of Wildomar never seems interested enough to attend such things. To each his own I guess, but I'd like to thank Council Member Bridgette Moore and Tim Walker, Mayor Pro-Tem Ben Benoit and Mayor Marsha Swanson for demonstrating that they care, once again, for the community that thought highly enough to elect them to office in the first place. 

Among those that came were the political hopefuls Bonnie Garcia, Jeff Stone and Glenn Miller (all vying for the Senate District 28). I would have loved to have seen them mix it up but I'm not even sure they were all present at the same time. Being that I'm an independent that leans Libertarian I don't care which one of them wins. The real election isn't until November anyway.

Also present was Ashley Fox, the girl scout that is raising money for a wheel chair swing. She most likely will eclipse her goal and might even raise enough for a second park toy for special needs residents of Wildomar.
Like I've said before, we have a great community and if you haven't discovered that fact yet, let me invite you to join the official website of the city so that you can be alerted to all sorts of things, including community events.
