I couldn’t attend the Board of Supervisors meeting because I was in Virginia for the first half of the week. The purpose of the trip was to meet with the General over Air Combat Command at Langley AFB and share why Beale, Yuba County, and the Sacramento region are the best choices for a new collaborative combat aircraft (CCA) mission.
This week, community events on my calendar included the Yuba County Airport’s 75th Anniversary celebration, the National Pumpkin Weigh-Off (including the grower’s reception and the awards dinner), the Wheatland Vendor Fair, and a gathering to make yard signs in support of Plumas Lake school bonds (BCDEF)..
