YOUR MONEY, YOUR COMMUNITY!
Continuing their annual tradition, Gary and Mary Vogt are giving a portion of their sales at American Valley Hardware on each of the last 10 days of the shopping season to local charities and worthy organizations. Beginning this Friday, Dec. 15, and continuing through Dec. 24, a different group will be the beneficiary of 5 percent of that day’s sales. The 10 groups Gary and Mary have picked to receive the funds are listed in an ad on page 7 in this week’s Feather River Bulletin and are also posted at the store. So, pick the groups you would like to help and plan your shopping accordingly. Better yet, shop the store daily and help all these worthy organizations!
LIVE MUSIC FOR SHOPPERS TO ENJOY
Matthew Kitchens, proprietor of The Toy Store, is featuring live holiday music on each of the next two Saturdays for all to enjoy at his Main Street Quincy store. This Saturday, Dec. 16, enjoy the sounds of Passive & Co. playing a variety of popular and original folk and bluegrass music. The following Saturday, Dec. 23, the Plumas Ukulele Society will be spreading Christmas cheer with a special collection of holiday songs.

LAUGH THE NIGHT AWAY
This Saturday, Dec. 16, the popular and entertaining evening of comedy returns to the Main Street Sports Bar & Lounge in downtown Quincy.
