Support your peers in the dance field by serving as a grant review panelist Roseville Transit set to improve commuter service in April This week in Placer County history On May 22, 1976, Tom Dayton celebrated his 110th birthday at the Auburn Convalescent Hospital. Dayton was born in San Francisco in 1866, less than a year after the U.S. Civil War ended. He enlisted at the end of the Spanish-American War but saw no action. He worked in the government shipyards during World War I and it was there that he lost three sons, his only children, to the 1918 Flu epidemic. After the war, he became a coal miner in Pennsylvania. The July 21, 1976 Auburn Journal reported that: “In the early 1920s, he contracted silicosis, the ‘black lung’ ailment common to the mining industry, and returned to California in the hope of spending what he believed to be his few remaining years in the Sierra Foothills.” He moved to Colfax in 1928 and got a job with Pacific Gas and Electric Company. His few remaining years turned out to be almost five decades. He often said “there is nothing like nature for healing.” Dayton played the piano and wrote many songs. At each of his birthdays after he hit the century mark, he played a few tunes on the piano, including his last birthday marking 110 years of life. He is one of the longest-living Placer County residents on record. Tom Dayton died in his sleep on July 18, 1976, and is buried in the Colfax Cemetery. He outlived two wives and three sons but was survived by many “step-relatives.” Photo: Detail of the March 21, 1973 Auburn Journal of Tom Dayton playing the piano ahead of his 107th birthday.

    More information about "Scams Happen Can you identify them?"
    Scams Happen Can you identify them? By: The Roseville Police Department Tackling fraud and scams takes more than posting warnings about suspicious links and online shopping gone wrong. Everyone needs to do their part by identifying and reporting fraud/scams and telling authorities if they fall victim or become aware of one. The FBI identifies common scams you need to know: Charity and disaster fraud — Unfortunately, not all donation campaigns are legitimate. To protect yourself when donating to a charity or disaster relief fund, give via checks or credit cards and research the organization by examining its history through the FTC. Elder fraud — If you’re a senior, you may be more likely to become a target of fraud due to scammers hoping you’ll be a homeowner, have a good credit score, and have retirement/savings money. To protect yourself or a loved one, talk with family before making significant financial decisions, such as getting a substantial amount of gift cards or giving to someone who claims they need to help your relative out of a tight spot. Tech support scams — Impersonators can scam you via false tech support services by charging you a fee before they fix the issue, demanding payment immediately, or asking you to share your bank info before they continue. These scammers initiate contact through unsolicited calls or texts, Internet pop-up windows, or fake tech support websites. Skimming — “Skimmers” are devices illegally installed on pay terminals, ATMs, or other points of transaction for cards. When you enter your PIN, they can record your info and use it to create fake accounts, open cards, or make unauthorized and illegal charges. Look for pinhole cameras on ATMs, use tap-to-pay, and carefully inspect terminals before using your card. Healthcare fraud — This type of fraud can be committed by medical providers, patients, and others. For example, Providers could double bill or phantom bill their patients, Patients might let another person use their insurance, and Others might impersonate health care professionals by providing a service without a license. To keep yourself and others safe, do your research and be a responsible patient. To test your knowledge and learn to identify a wider variety of scams, visit www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/scams-and-safety/common-frauds-and-scams. Roseville PD takes fraud and scams seriously, and we need you to do your part in keeping yourself AND others safe by reporting to the FBI, FTC, and local law enforcement (that's us!).

According to the March 21, 1974 Lincoln News Messenger: “Police Chief Robert Jimenez said calls began coming into the police dispatcher about 10 p.m. Tuesday night that there was a male streaker on Highway 65 between Fifth and Sixth streets. A police unit responded and apprehended a male nude subject who was quickly placed in the police car.” Streaking was a popular phenomenon in the 1970s, especially in the United States, and 1974 was a high point. On April 2, 1974, a streaker interrupted presenter David Niven at the 46th Academy Awards. In May of 1974, the song “The Streak,” written and performed by Ray Stevens, reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. In 1974, thousands of streakers caught people's attention worldwide, and Placer County was not immune. The March 21, 1974 Lincoln News Messenger said it best: “It had to happen sooner or later!” Photo: Ray Stevens, c. 1971 Did you know This is National Agriculture Week (April 16-22), a great time to recognize and celebrate our local farmers and ranchers in Placer County.

Thomas shot Dr. J.P. Dickson of San Francisco in a duel outside of the city of Sacramento. A week prior, Thomas made disparaging remarks about J.B. Rutland, a clerk in the state treasurer’s office. Rutland wrote a letter challenging the district attorney to a duel and had his friend, Dickson, deliver it. However, Thomas did not accept the challenge because he did not recognize Rutland as a gentleman. Dickson then submitted his own challenge, which Thomas accepted. The duel was set to take place March 10, 1854, in Sacramento County. The Sacramento County sheriff caught wind of the duel and sent a deputy to stop the affray. The dueling party had two men set up a mock duel to fool the deputy. H.O. Ryerson and Hamilton Bowie took 10 paces, turned and fired, purposely missing each other. The deputy arrested Ryerson and took him back to Sacramento while the true dueling party met near a place called Oak Grove. Both men agreed to take 15 paces before turning to fire. Thomas fired a fraction of a second before Dickson and his bullet was true, entering the doctor’s right side and passing through his lung. Dickson’s shot hit the ground just in front of Thomas. Dickson died the following morning. On April 28, 1854, Thomas was arrested by the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office for violation of the Dueling Law. He posted $5,000 in bonds and was released. He was never tried, and he continued to serve as Placer County district attorney until 1861.

Featured story New fire station to receive World Trade Center beam as a memorial A beam from the World Trade Center will be installed as a memorial in front of the soon-to-be-constructed Bickford Ranch Fire Station in west Placer County. The CAL FIRE/Placer County Fire Department was awarded the beam for demonstrating leadership, courage and professionalism. The memorial program is being run by Sims Metal of Richmond, California, which held the contract to clear the World Trade Center site and recycle all the metal. This is the final beam in its memorial program to honor heroes of 9/11 and our first responders who risk their lives daily. Construction of the new Bickford Ranch Fire Station is slated to begin in mid-to-late 2026. The beam will remain in storage until then.

Frank of Dutch Flat were presented with a brand new 1941 model Buick automobile and 1,000 gallons of Texaco gasoline as winners of a Procter & Gamble radio contest. According to the March 7, 1940, Auburn Journal: “The company had been presenting ten Buicks every week to the persons who finish the sentence, ‘I like Ivory Soap because –’ in the best 25-word slogan.” Mrs. Frank submitted three entries in mid-February and was notified by Western Union Telegram that one of her entries was selected as the winner. Bud Duncan’s Buick Motor Company in Auburn provided the car to Mr. and Mrs. Frank with Bud himself making the presentation. John Swan, the local Texaco dealer, provided the certificate for 1,000 gallons of Texaco gasoline. Unfortunately, we don’t know what Mrs. Frank submitted as the winning entry. It appears that Procter & Gamble ran this promotional giveaway in 1940 and did not continue into 1941. Of course, after the United States entered World War II on Dec. 7, 1941, there would be no new cars until late 1945. Photo: Bud Duncan posing with a new 1953 Buick automobile Did you know? Placer County is home to approximately 25,000 veterans. Our free help netted them nearly $15 million last year. Don't let the veterans in your life fall prey to ‘claim sharks,’ or companies that charge veterans for help filing disability claims without Veterans Affairs accreditation. These companies often use aggressive or misleading tactics. By contrast, Placer’s Veterans Services Office is free of charge, accredited and all staff are highly experienced. The VSO offers free help with claims, healthcare, education and other benefits. This team is helping more veterans than ever, handling a record 21,491 requests last year. Veterans working with the VSO received $14.8 million in VA benefits last year, a 26% increase from 2022. Compounded, the economic impact of benefits attained through the VSO is $142 million since 2020. Learn more about the VSO's recent work, and make sure the veterans in your life are connected with their team: placer.ca.gov/Veterans.

    More information about "Protection from ID theft with a credit freeze"
    Identity theft is on the rise, and experts say there’s no end in sight. In 2024, data breaches exposed more than 1 billion records, a staggering 312% increase from 2023, according to the Identity Theft Resource Center. Major companies, including Change Healthcare, United Healthcare, and AT&T, experienced breaches, affecting millions of people. With cybercriminals constantly finding new ways to steal personal information, it’s important to take steps to protect yourself. One of the best ways to do this is by freezing your credit. How Does a Credit Freeze Work? A credit freeze stops lenders from accessing your credit report. When you apply for a loan, credit card, or bank account, lenders check your credit history before approving your application. If your credit is frozen, they cannot access your report, making it difficult for criminals to open accounts in your name. What to Know About Freezing Your Credit The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) provides these important facts about credit freezes: Anyone can freeze their credit. Freezing and unfreezing your credit is free. A credit freeze does not affect your credit score. You must contact all three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion—to freeze your credit. A freeze remains in place until you lift it. If you need to apply for credit, you’ll have to lift the freeze at all three bureaus. However, if you know which bureau a lender will use, you can lift the freeze only at that bureau. Should You Place a Fraud Alert Instead? In addition to a credit freeze, you might consider placing a fraud alert on your credit file. A fraud alert notifies lenders to take extra steps to verify your identity before opening a new account. There are three types of fraud alerts: Initial Fraud Alert: If you suspect identity theft, you can place this free alert, which lasts one year. It makes it harder for someone to open an account in your name. Extended Fraud Alert: If you’ve been a victim of identity theft and have completed an FTC report at IdentityTheft.gov or filed a police report, you can place this free alert. It lasts seven years and also removes your name from unsolicited credit and insurance offers for five years. Active Duty Fraud Alert: If you are on active military duty, you can place this alert to protect your credit while deployed. It lasts one year and removes you from unsolicited credit and insurance offers for two years. Take Action Now A credit freeze and fraud alert are powerful tools to guard against identity theft. You can place both on your credit file for added protection. If you believe your identity has been stolen, visit IdentityTheft.gov to report the incident and receive a personalized recovery plan. For more details, visit the FTC website to determine if a credit freeze or fraud alert is right for you. Taking these precautions now can save you time, stress, and financial loss in the future

Four movies filmed in Placer County have won Academy Awards. Over the years, Placer’s stunning terrain has played a role in some of Hollywood’s most iconic films. Here are the Oscar-winners with local scenes: “The Gold Rush” (1925): Charlie Chaplin’s masterpiece was partially filmed at Sugar Bowl Ski Resort. It went on to win Best Original Score and Best Sound Mixing at the 1943 Oscars after its reissue. “A Place in the Sun” (1951): Filmed at Lake Tahoe, this classic starring Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift won Best Picture at the 1952 Oscars. “The Godfather Part II” (1974): Often celebrated as one of the greatest sequels in cinematic history, this film, also partially filmed at Lake Tahoe, took home Best Picture and a total of 11 Oscars in 1975. “Her” (2013): Directed by Spike Jonze and starring Joaquin Phoenix, parts of this visionary movie were filmed in Placer County. It won Best Original Screenplay, along with accolades for Production Design and Original Score, and was nominated for Best Picture at the 2014 Oscars. Placer County’s natural beauty and versatile landscapes continue to inspire filmmakers and create cinematic magic. Find a complete list of locally-filmed movies, TV series, commercials and more on our website. Following this year’s postponement due to the Los Angeles fires, the 97th Academy Awards will take place this Sunday, March 2, at the Dolby Theater. See all of the nominees here. This week in Placer County history At around 6:20 a.m. on the morning of Feb. 22, 1935, railroad workers in Roseville were startled by a fireball in the sky overhead. Some of the workers thought the object was moving toward Lincoln while others reported it was heading south. A Southern Pacific freight train crew reported they saw an airplane in flames that crashed somewhere between Lincoln and Roseville. But no one in Roseville or Lincoln reported any crashed airplanes—or anything at all unusual. G.M. Boles, a switchman in the Roseville train yard, said it was a meteor. But which direction was it going and where did it land? The answer was about 130 miles to the southwest in Monterey Bay. According to the Feb. 23, 1935, Santa Cruz Evening News: “Richard Rackerby of San Francisco and James Scott…parked in an automobile at the ocean cliff at the end of 41st avenue yesterday morning and saw a huge object drop into the waters of Monterey Bay…the object was three times the size of an automobile and it dropped into the bay about a mile from shore, causing a splash and huge waves. The belief of the boys was that it was a meteor.” About 17,000 meteorites fall to Earth every year with automobile-sized meteorites falling about once per year.

Schedule free tax prep WATCH: CAL FIRE/Placer County Fire Department Chief Brian Estes’s creativity found unexpected ways to shine throughout his remarkable career This week in Placer County history On Feb. 8, 1978, pilot Herman Crabtrey took off from Phoenix Field in Fair Oaks in his 1960 Comanche airplane heading east. After about 30 minutes, terror struck the pilot when his engine sputtered and died. Frantically, he searched below for a place to land and was able to glide his plane over Interstate 80. He was able to touchdown just ahead of a semi-truck near the Applegate exit. Within minutes, a California Highway Patrol Officer arrived and was able to tow Crabtrey’s plane off the highway. According to the Feb. 10, 1978, Auburn Journal, “The engine was pulled Thursday [Feb. 9] and will be sent to the FAA [Federal Aviation Agency] Lab in Sacramento to determine what happened. Crabtrey then plans to have it repaired by a Lincoln mechanic.” After the engine failure cause was identified, Crabtrey paid the Lincoln mechanic $2,000 to repair and re-install it in his plane, which remained near the Applegate exit. Crabtrey obtained a one-time permission letter from Caltrans, CHP and Placer County to make the westbound lanes of Interstate 80 his runway and on March 10, 1978, Herman successfully took off amid applause from onlookers. He landed safely at Phoenix Field in Fair Oaks about 10 minutes after takeoff. Photo: Detail of the Feb. 10, 1978, Auburn Journal.

The Placer Conservation Authority Board of Directors took action today to execute three purchase-and-sale agreements to acquire conservation easements on the Raccoon Creek Property, formerly known as the Teichert property. The Raccoon Creek Property acquisition would approximately double the 4,318 acres in the PCCP’s reserve system and represents the largest remaining concentration of prime farmland in Placer County.

The sound jolted homeowners and rattled windows as far away as Luther Road. The Auburn Fire and Police departments responded. According to the Feb. 7, 1982, Auburn Journal: “Pranksters fired off a Civil War cannon in the Old Auburn District Cemetery…The explosion knocked the ancient cannon awry on its cement base and flattened a flagpole located directly behind the cannon. Shreds of toilet paper were strewn all over.” Assistant Auburn Fire Chief Keith Lukens said that the pranksters loaded black powder into the cannon, then stuffed it with toilet paper before lighting it off. An unnamed culprit was apprehended by Auburn policeman Wayne Lankford, who made him agree to make restitution to the Cemetery District in lieu of arrest.
