The recent death of long-time
local educator and respected
school board member Ed Eveland
has created a vacancy on the
Board of Education of the
Long Beach Unified School
District. Eveland represented
District 4, which includes East
Long Beach, Signal Hill and
Catalina Island. The school board
seat was expected to be
announced last week and filled at
a special election on Tuesday,
June 10.
The Board of Education is
scheduled to act on a resolution
calling for thg&12f ckal election. If
apprGved, the deadline for
candidates to file for the office
will be Friday, March 14. In
order to do so, a candidate
must be a resident of District
4, a registered voter and at
least 18 years of age.
The election will be con-
ducted by the City Clerk's Office
of the City of Long Beach. City
charter provisions require
candidates to file nominating
papers that include the
signatures of at least 20 but
no more than 30 registered
voters who live in District 4.
Nominations forms were
available beginning Wednesday,
March 5, at the Los Angeles
-County Registrar's Office,
12400 E. Imperial Highway,
Norwalk. There is no filing
fee but there is a charge for
each candidate's ballot
statement. The cost is
estimated to be $1,950 for
printing the statement in
English and Spanish.
Since this is a special
election to fill the unexpected
portion of Eveland's term,
whoever is elected will need to
stand for election again in
April 2004 in order to be
considered for a full term.
Members of the Board of
Education are elected to four-
year terms at regular
elections.
Past pres
The past presidents and 50-
year members of the Santa

Thursday, March 13, beginning at
noon at Steve's Steakhouse on
Crescent Avenue.
The special guest for the
luncheon will be Lt. Patrick
Hunter and his wife, Martha.
Lt. Hunter will speak about
his experiences in law enforce-
ment and his plans for leading the
Sheriff's Department in Avalon.
Steve's is planning a special
menu with a choice of beef, fish
or chicken at a cost of $12.
Reservations are a must, so
please call Jeanie at 510-1707 or
Neva at 510-0852.
Museum telethon set for March
If you turned on Channel 3
Tuesday evening, Feb. 25, you
would have seen a sign saying
that the telethon was postponed
"due to the Casino Fire." Well,
the fire's out and the telethon has
been set for Thursday, March 20,
from 6 to 9 p.m.
Thanks to the quick thinking
and acting fire department and
staff at the Santa Catalina Island
Company, disaster was averted.
However, the building evacuation
and temporary power outage
caused the museum staff to delay
the telethon.
Don't miss out on all the
action. Be sure to tune in and
support the museum and their
50th anniversary.
For more information, contact
the museum at (310) 510-2414.
February 18- March 21
Beginning Tuesday, February 18th, the Chimes
Tower Road will be closed from the card key
gate down past the Chimes Tower for road
repairs. Construction should be completed
approximately March 21 st.
There will be two way traffic on Stagecoach
Road between Avalon and the card key
gate during this period.
Please use caution at all times
when traveling in this area.
