Don remains active in the community and is the past President of the Livermore Rotary Club. Don's step-daughter married in to the Fallon family, one of Livermore's long time families who were heavily involved in the Rodeo. Don's Granddaughter, Tammy Fallon, was the 1987 Livermore Rodeo Queen, the 1988 Grand National Rodeo Queen and the California State Rodeo Queen in 1989. Don's wife, Isabel, has recently written a book about the Irish settlers of the Livermore Valley titled "The Early Pioneers in the Livermore Valley Were One Big Family". Don, his wife Isabel and Granddaughter Tammy, wish you all a great day and encourage you to continue support for the Rodeo and your public Library.

#114 - Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District

 

 
The Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District’s Board of Education which includes Board President Stewart Gary and Board Trustees Bill Dunlop, Chuck Rogge, and Anne White accompanied by Superintendent of Schools Kelly Bowers, Assistant Superintendent Mike Martinez, and Executive Director of Fiscal Services Susan Kinder. Joining the Board and Superintendent are students and parents from Rancho Las Positas Elementary School.

On Wednesday, September 16, the Governor’s Fitness Challenge named Rancho Las Positas Elementary School, California’s Elementary School of the Year. Rancho was represented in Sacramento by its entire fourth and fifth grade student body, teachers, office staff, principal and running club coordinators. Rancho school accepted the honor but chose not to accept the award of $100,000 in fitness equipment. Instead Rancho opted to give it away to another deserving school community less fortunate than its own. Rancho School is proud to honor its students and staff for their hard work but equally as proud to acknowledge the giving and caring spirit that makes up the school community.

Recognition of the Rancho community is a shining example of all the remarkable accomplishments seen throughout the entire District.
