Local Updates and Weird State Stuff - NEW

* this post has been modified since it's original release*


Let's start with the feel good stuff first...

Our local Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory at the Lake Elsinore Outlets is sponsoring a"Fudge for Troops" campaign. For every pound of fudge a customer purchases, Rocky Mtn Chocolate Factory will donate a pound to our troops serving overseas. So please consider the fact that your dentist needs the business, and go buy a pound of fudge! It's for the troops!

Second, if you are a Facebook user, there is a new page called Elsinore 365, started by one of our very own residents, Elizabeth Dana. This Fan Page is dedicated to informing residents of local events, many of which are not listed in the local paper (they can't list everything!) So go check it out, it's a really great way to keep up on what's going on in town!

Construction on Diamond Drive is scheduled to start this coming Monday, July 25th. Thank God! Please be aware of this when considering your travel route when you're pressed for time. To those of you so inclined, please do not send me emails complaining that you were late to your Zumba class because of construction. You know who you are :)

Our planning commission has a new Chairperson, Shelley Jordan and a new Vice Chairman, Mike ONeal.

The council took the Public Safety Advisory Commission off hiatus, so look for them to be back on track next month.

And finally, because I know you're hungry for some news that will make you scratch your head in wonder...there are efforts in place that would make it ILLEGAL to circumcise a male under the age of 18 in San Francisco and of all places, Santa Monica. (as if any male over the age of 8 would even consider it)

Seriously, they're discussing making circumcision illegal.

So more construction on Diamond Drive, how about Heald, Ellis, Lakeshore, Main St and every other road in this town that are in need. I drive a big Dodge Ram truck and the roads in this town beat the crap out of it. So where is the money allocated for road improvement???? They sure aren't using it for what it is intended for, our roads are ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!
