Huntington Beach Beaches:

A Big Thank You to The Vuncanon Family of Huntington Beach for donating money to put new nets on all of The Basketball Courts at Hope View Elementary School. They are Unsung Heroes.

I'd like to start this Newsletter wishing the following people a Very Happy Birthday. They are:
Jenny Shipley-Buettner from Shibue Couture, KTLA Morning News Anchor Megan Henderson, Long Beach Vice Mayor Suja Lowenthal, Long Beach City Council Man Gary DeLong, A Good Man Telly Ntzouras and Bolsa Chica Land Trust Activist Carrie Thomas.

The Huntington Beach Police Chief Ken Small's Adminstrative Assistant Karin Reed asked me to mention this Item:
The California Highway Patrol's Start Smart program is a FREE driver safety education class which targets new and future licensed teenage drivers between the ages of 15 - 20 and their parents/guardians. CHP officers will discuss traffic collision avoidance techniques, collision causing factors, driver/parent responsibilities, and seatbelt usage. Our goal is to help young drivers and their parents/guardians understand the responsibilities associated with driving a motor vehicle, show how a poor choice behind the wheel can change the lives of everyone involved, and to reduce the number of teen-related injuries and deaths due to collisions.
Please call and RSVP to reserve your seat.
WHO: Students and Parents
WHAT: Start Smart Class
WHEN: Monthly (next class on Tuesday, February 21st at 6:30 PM)
WHERE: California Highway Patrol
13200 Goldenwest Street
Westminster, CA 92683
