Parking Lot Project Begins

Plumas District Hospital

Attention community members! Please see the letter below regarding the parking lot project that is beginning at Plumas District Hospital. Please note that as of Thursday, July 21st, the North Fork Parking lots will not be accessible for parking (Section B in the attached map). The Main Hospital parking lot and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints parking lot will be available during this time for patients to park in.
---------------
“The parking lot project is set to begin today (Tuesday, 7/19). We will work hard to communicate often with our community in as much detail as we can provide. This project is massive and will be disruptive to our normal operations for staff and patients. In the end, we will have a much safer parking lot- free of tripping hazards; drainage systems that will prevent localized flooding; ADA compliant parking spots. We will have around 55 new parking spots as well! We thank you, our community members, patients, and staff for your continued patience during this process.

The construction crew will start on Valley View Drive north of the North Fork Building. Half of the North Fork parking lot along the east end, nearest the creek, will be removed on Wednesday (7/20) and the remainder of the lot on Thursday (7/21).

The attached map shows the areas of work broken down in five sections (A – E). Generally speaking, area B will be the first part of the project completed. It is projected that area B will be completed by Monday, August 15. The main hospital parking lot (Areas D & E) are expected to be completed near the end of the project. We will continue to provide updates and detailed parking instructions as timelines are modified.

This project is paid for by our hospital bond and not from operations. We greatly appreciate the support from our community for this."

Sincerely,
Darren Beatty, COO

FRC's Jake Christianson Recruited By the Tampa Bay Rays

Feather River College

FRC's Jake Christianson selected in 15th round of MLB draft by 'Rays!

A former catcher turned Feather River College pitcher will now have the opportunity to continue his baseball career at the professional level.

Golden Eagle’s closer, Jake Christianson, was selected in the 15th round of the Major League Baseball draft recently by the Tampa Bay Rays. Christianson was the 464th player taken overall and just the fifth player selected from the California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA). He was the second player chosen from a CCCAA Northern Division school. The 6-foot-5 right-hander had pitched just two college innings prior to the 2022 season, coming to the program from St. Paul, Minnesota as a catcher.

"We are all super excited for Jake and his opportunity to compete at the highest level," said FRC coach Terry Baumgartner. "This just proves that you can achieve your dreams if you are willing to put in the work to get better."

Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship

The SBTS Pro Trail Crew utilizes many resources when building and maintaining trails. One of those resources is our new 85S portable fire suppression/water unit, donated by our good friends at QTAC Fire based in Chico California. This extraordinary piece of equipment allows our crews to work safer in dry summer conditions, while also providing moisture for proper soils management when digging in the dirt. SBTS Trail Boss Henry O’Donnell had this to say, “The QTAC 85S allows our crews to extend our work day and season by giving us soils moisture control and fire safety measures, especially during the dry months.” Thank you QTAC Fire for supporting SBTS trail programs and helping create Dirt Magic.
