Kudos for Adopt-A-Road Volunteers. If Tanque Verde Road appears to be unusually clean today, you can thank the following 49ers residents who gave their time Saturday Morning to help clean up the road: Glenda Phipps, Brenda Seeliger, Stephanie Grimes, Ruth Stockdale, Karen Noble-Roehm, Herb West, Gary Grimes, Robbie Bourguet, Pat Liebenberg, Larry Daggert, Cheryl McKenzie, Carol Gotaas, Ferroll Elmer, and Parralee Schneider. When you see any of them, give them a big thank you.
49ers Adds Another Member to TVUSD Board. Claire Place (Wagon Trail Rd) has joined Jeff Neff (Barbary Coast Rd) as a member of the Tanque Verde Unified School District Board. Kudos to both of these 49er residents for their volunteer work.
