At the Fair, Feb. 14-17
The Cloverdale Citrus Fair couldn’t have been welcomed in with better weather last weekend. The fair, which was held from Feb. 14 to Feb. 17, celebrated its 128th year.
Cloverdale’s Cooling Center
The Cloverdale Senior Multipurpose Center served as a cooling station opened by the county of Sonoma on Aug. 17 and 18. As temperatures reached local highs, Cloverdalians were able to spend some socially-distanced time at the center to cool off.
Aspiring to be tobacco free
Imagine that you’re sitting with a friend, they’re vaping, and suddenly they start to choke on the aerosol they’re inhaling. In an effort to save them, you go through a door that transports you to “smoke city,” an alternate reality where tobacco rules. From there, you have to complete a series of tasks and tests in order to find your friend, who’s still having a negative reaction to the vape. That’s the premise of ASPIRE (A Smoking Prevention Interactive Experience), a game developed to help educate young people on the impacts of tobacco and nicotine.
