SAVHA Fall Lecture and Annual meeting on November 18

 

Only a few seats remain available for the "Pearl's Diary" event planned on Saturday, November 18 by the San Antonio Valley Historical Association.


         The event is part of the Fall Lecture and Annual Meeting being held in the social hall of St. Mark's Church in King City at the corner of Bassett Street and South Third Street.  It will begin at 1 p.m. with a luncheon followed by a talk at 2 p.m.  The public is invited.


           Featured speakers will be Marvin Daniels of Pismo Beach, Dan Daniels of King City and Redding, and Marlene Daniels Thomason of Parkfield.   The siblings have been working for nearly four years to transcribe 45 years of entries in the diaries of their mother, Pearl (Rist) Daniels.   The writings are a fascinating glimpse into the life of a Southern Monterey County ranch wife including references to national and local events.

On July 5, 2024, Parks staff noticed that dead baitfish, mostly shad, began washing up on the shore around Lake San Antonio and immediately contacted California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to report the situation. At that time, the CDFW fisheries biologist stated the fish die off was most likely due to the high temperatures and low dissolved oxygen level in the water and that the situation most likely did not present a risk to the public.
