North Country Fair at 52 - North Coast Journal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Overcast skies and even a few early in the day sprinkles served as a gentle reminder the change of seasons is underway for the large crowds attending the 52nd annual North Country Fair last weekend in Arcata.

The Good and Bad News at CPH’s Fall Welcome - North Coast Journal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After attending decades of welcome-back fall meetings at the former Humboldt State University, I found it interesting to watch President Richard A. Carvajal at Cal Poly Humboldt, the ninth president and first Latino to lead CPH after being president of Valdosta State University from 2017 to 2025, in his first ever Fall Welcome event on Monday, Aug. 17.

Annie and Mary and Ladies and Crows - North Coast Journal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Mad River Old Crows (aka the Old Crows), a Blue Lake men’s group/social club “with no hierarchy, agenda or rules,” emerged on the scene 13 years ago to enjoy each other’s company and to donate their skills, money and energy to community projects. In recognition of their many contributions, the Blue Lake Chamber of Commerce named them the grand marshals of this year’s Annie and Mary Day Parade held last Sunday, Aug. 9. This was only the second time in 58 years of the Annie and Mary Day Parade
