"A-TCAA Central Sierra Connect needs your help with mapping broadband in our region (Amador, Alpine, Calaveras, Mariposa and Tuolumne counties). Please follow this link to the “crowdsourcing” module, created by Solstice Geospatial, to help map our area’s broadband footprint. On this site, you can put in your address (for home and/or business), take a speed test to see how fast your service is and, after pinning your location on the map, tell them who your provider is, how much your service costs, and any comments you have about your service. All information remains completely confidential." (NetworkSierra.org, February 8, 2010) |

"ational Mentoring Month, January, is nearly over, but it’s never too late to get involved, local mentoring program coordinators say. Programs for children needing a little added guidance, or for adults who want to share their life experiences, are offered in both Calaveras and Tuolumne counties. Mentors and their charges participate in activities ranging from reading to recreation. And just a few hours a week can make a big difference." (UnionDemocrat.com, January 29, 2010) |
