Chamber website
wins gold award for
best business site
It's been just short of a year
since the Catalina Chamber of
Commerce & Visitors Bureau
launched a brand-new website,
but all the hard work has paid off.
Last month, the American
Advertising Federation's Coastal
California chapter hosted the
2017 ADDY awards luncheon.
Searle Creative, the company
hired by Chamber Secretary/
President and CEO: Jim
Luttjohann, received gold awards
for Consumer Website and
Business-t0-Business Website.
The Searle team nominated
www.CatalinaChamber.com,
which they developed, so win-
ning a gold award is also a win
for our chamber.
The March 19 event was
chaired by Mark Landon, chair
of the American Advertising
Awards Coastal California chap-
ter.
Tell your Island friends that
our Catalina website is literally
gold.
The salt water valve replace-
ment project has caused some
minor disruption, but continues
on track. The City of Avalon says
they are on schedule with plans
from last week. Excavation work
along Front Street and upper
Tremont will continue to expose
the valves for replacement.
The tentative schedule for salt
water shut off next week, April
10, is as follows:
Monday April 10: Clarissa to
by Dixie Redfearn
Metropole/Crescent to Tremont.
Tuesday April 11: Tremont,
Banning Drive, Upper Metropole
and Country Club Drive.
Tuesday April 11: Clemente to
Eucalyptus/Tremont to Beacon
Thursday April 14: Catalina
to Metropole/Crescent to Beacon
On Monday, April 10, offi-
cials hope to .have the salt water
service back on by 5 p.m. It is
anticipated that Monday may go
longer into the evening, however,
this will prevent the need for shut
off in those zones Tuesday for
valves #1, 2 and 3.
The Green Pier and Cabrillo
Mole restrooms will be in ser-
vice during any salt water shut
off times.
We will keep you posted on
any updates, and be sure to check
www.city0favalon.com/roads for
more details, including a pdf map
highlighting the expected areas
impacted by each shut off.
Claudia J. Davis writes, "I'm
looking for a copy of a 1947 high
school newspaper.
"My father graduated from
Avalon High School in 1947 and
I was wondering if you had any
copies of The High School Sugar
Loaf, Volume XXI, Number 35,
dated Thursday, June 26, 1947. I
have an old photocopy of Page 10
which has photos of the graduat-
ing students and I was curious if
there was any more to it. Thank
you for whatever information you
can give me"

From page t
process. There were many reser-
vations prior to the event on how
well some of the individuals thought
they could do but with some great
guidance from Porschia and her
staff, the group was able to take a
nice piece of art work home with
them. Special thanks goes out to
Mayor Anni Marshall for joining
us; the Sandtrap for providing lunch;
Kathleen at the M Restaurant for the
wonderful desserts; Yoli and Sana
for the use of the Conference Room
at the Metropole Market Place; and
of course Porschia Denning for host-
ing the wonderful afternoon. On
April 19, the Prime-Timers will be
going into the interior for an Airport
In The Sky Tour and lunch.
They look forward to seeing the
green hills and the beautiful wild-
flowers along the way. For more
information and registration, con-
tact the Avalon Community Services
Department at 310-510-0220.
