Mid-term agenda

July might as well be the official Dennis Agnos month. Last week, the Healdsburg resident and LGBTQ activist was the subject of a feature article about foster parents and the benefits of building a family through foster care. This week, Agnos is in the spotlight again — for his work as president of the volunteer board of directors at the Healdsburg Education Foundation (HEF).

At the mouth of the Russian River, which defines the watershed in which we all live, there is a mud and sand flat full of driftwood, large rocks and lots and lots of colorful items. These are soda bottles, lost toys, household containers, play balls, boat parts, piles of bottle caps, broken cases, bags, missing shoes and unidentifiable pieces of our modern life. They’re all made of plastic.

These news items are gathered from previous issues of the Windsor Times by volunteers of the Windsor Museum and Historical Society
