Good Afternoon All,
We lift up our hearts and prayers
for the family of Rhunia Moore.
Rhunia passed last week. Her
celebration of life will take place
Thursday, July 21st at 11:00 am.
The services will be held at the
Reseda Church of Christ, 7806
Ingomar Street, Reseda, CA.
(South of Roscoe Blvd and North
of Saticoy).
The wake is scheduled for
this afternoon at Rucker’s Mortuary
from 4:00 pm until 7:00 pm.
Rhunia is a life time member of the
San Fernando Valley NAACP. She
last served as a member of the
Executive Committee, we resolve.
We also want to be prayerful for
her grandson Russell Baldwin who
has cared tremendously for her in the
past years and her great grand daughter
Jetaya who also lived with Rhunia.
Cards and condolences can be sent to:
The Moore Family
12436 Claretta Street

We can only hope that the 405 Freeway closure that has received national news, will be opened on the 18th in spite of the $12,000 per hour penalty that is being fined to the contractors (if not done on time).
It isn't that there isn't enough traffic already, Friday for me was an hour and 1/2 drive from Stocker/Crenshaw to Oakdale Drive in Chatsworth and that was a regular Friday.
We can only pray that Caltrans and their crew members can encourage the contractors completion of the Westside bridge.
Please thank Rosemarie Sanchez Frazier for the posting.

ASPIRE STIPEND PROGRAM 2011-12
Do you aspire to be the best Early Childhood Educator that you can be? The ASPIRE program will put you on the path to improving your practice and furthering your education by providing you with financial and advisement support.
What is ASPIRE?
ASPIRE is a new statewide First 5 CA professional development program for early childhood educators, also known as CARES Plus. Participants will complete a free on-line training regarding the CLASS observation tool, academic and career advisement, and 3-6 semester units of coursework. By doing so, they can earn a stipend of at least $1,000 in August 2012.
Why ASPIRE?
Working with small children is a joy-filled, yet challenging job. You need all the skills that you can get to be your best. Unfortunately, wages in the field are low and it may not be easy to pay the costs of further training and education. That's where ASPIRE comes in. Not only will you receive free training and advisements sessions, but you will get a nice financial boost on completion!
Who is Eligible?
ASPIRE is open to people currently working in the ECE field who are looking to do coursework and training to improve their practice. For more details on eligibility, visit this website after July 8th for an application. Applications will be due in October 22, 2011.
PLEASE NOTE: Teaching staff who qualify for L.A. County's "Investing in Early Educators" Stipend Program (AB212) are not eligible for the ASPIRE Stipend Program. The ASPIRE Stipend Program Application will provide details on who is eligible for the County program. To visit the website for the L.A.

405 Freeway try Metrolink Trains
On Friday, July 15, ramps along the 10 mile closure will begin to be shut down as early as 7 p.m., and closure of freeway lanes will begin at 10 p.m. to ensure full freeway closure by midnight. The closure will continue until 5 a.m. Monday morning, July 18. Ramps and connectors will be reopened by 6 a.m.
Metro will provide free rides on the Metro Red/Purple Line subway, as well as on the Metro Orange Line and select bus lines during the closure weekend to further spur transit trips between the San Fernando Valley and downtown Los Angeles. Valley residents are encouraged to park at available park & ride lots at North Hollywood, Van Nuys, Sepulveda, Balboa, Reseda, Pierce College and Canoga Stations, that together offer more than 4,000 parking spaces, and ride Metro to reach their destinations. Walking, bicycling or taking transit to access stations is also encouraged.
Metro will also add a total of 61 buses to normal Saturday and Sunday schedules for eight major bus lines and up to 16 buses to protect late night and owl services serving key San Fernando Valley/Westside routes to accommodate increased travel times. Both the Metro Red and Purple Lines will operate weekday peak period service levels, or approximately every 10 minutes all weekend, with six and four car trains, respectively. The Metro Green Line will also run every 10 minutes throughout the weekend.
Metro will closely monitor traffic congestion on all routes in the I-405 construction area and will make needed adjustments to bus service based on the current traffic conditions. Transit patrons should, however, anticipate longer trip times to reach their destinations and plan accordingly.
Metrolink will supplement its current weekend schedule by offering seven round-trips on its Ventura County Line and nine additional trips on its Antelope Valley Line during the closure weekend. Metrolink will also offer its $10 Weekend Pass, which enables passengers to ride any Metrolink train, as many times as they would like between Friday night at 7pm and Sunday night at 11:50pm for one low rate.
More information on Metrolink service and affordable ticketing options can be found at www.metrolinktrains.com.
