Blazer's Breakfast

Blazer's had a great breakfast on March which has been one of our busiest months so far. We had great healthy food and snacks. Everybody was happy. We had a great honor having Mike Wilson #85 from the San Francisco 49ers at our breakfast.

BLUES FOR CENTRAL AVENUE

The Blazer's youth had a night out to the theater to watch the play "Blues for Central Ave" on March 6. The youth enjoyed the music and educational story about Central Ave. I was the only parent there because they only allowed one. It was a very interesting story.

Blazer Family Dinner

All Blazer's parents with students enrolled at the center went to May's Cantonese Restaurant and the veggie chow-mein was..... the bomb! It was so delicious that I took some home.This gathering was part of Blazers efforts to empower our parents to recognize common issues and share responsibilities individually and collectively.

Garifuna Culture & Language School

Every Saturday the Garifuna Culture and Language School has classes at Center from 10am - 1pm, designed for adults, teenagers and children. The golas of the school are to teach the Garifuna language, culture and history. Rueben Reyes and Ronnie Figueroa are instrumental to maintaining and developing strengthening our relationship with Garifuna people both here, locally in the US and internationally, in Honduras.

Technlogy 2009

Well, I know we are a little late......but Happy New Year...Happy 2009...Just wanted to let you all kow that we are still here and still at work. our computr lab is getting a lot of use and the students are becoming tech All Stars. They are learing to use the internet, type documents and to use software and the programs online. We really want to give a special Thanks to a few of our primary tech sponsors: IBM, AT&T and the California Consumer Protection Foundation (CCPF). Their support continues to help our tech program provide quality programs, trainings and tech access in the community.

Piano, too?

With the end of the year quickly approaching we had both our end of the year celebration, and a piano recital for the students who have been taking classes with Bruce Howard. Mr. Howard has been teaching classes for the past several months at the center. The parents brought the food, the students had a blast and we look forward to getting back to work in the new year.

Blazer Breakfast

Well for all of those who were unable to make it, we wanted to send you a big....."you missed it!!" The Blazer breakfast was a success. We had Blazer's show up from the 1st team in 1969 through some of our most recent teams. The Kitchen Divas were in full effect and cooked a fantastic meal for the breakfast on Sunday. We had eggs, fruit smoothies, potatoes, oatmeal, fruit, turkey sausage.....it was delicious!!! We plan on having another get together in the next few months.
