 The gym has being erected high. Roof beams are being added. December 2015, we show you the construction stages because next year we will see a brand new cafeteria in 2016. One major change is that the old bakery from earlier CSDR days is converted to additional dining space. The front entrance is grander now with taller doorways. The additional window columned panes treat students to a luxurious view of the mountains. Let's click on the image for the VIDEO. Posted on January 10, 2016
 See how fast all this has been built! Mike Anderson has some words about this campus construction. Behind him is the CTE building which will include administrative office, culinary arts, graphic arts, art, technology, TPP, and work ability. The more he shows is the gym and the pool.

 Good Old Days! Bobby Skedsmo found a picture among many in his vast collection of pictures that is priceless. It is a fantasy of which he also made fun by comparing the personalities of his classmates from the CSDR Class of 1963 with the outlaws from the lawless days of the Wild West during the 19th Century. Remember Paul Newman and Robert Redford as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in the movie classic? Without a doubt, we remember the movie. Standing in the group picture with them and other famous outlaws is Kid Curry, aka Kendall "Ken" Doane who sadly passed away on September 24. In honoring Ken Doane, Linda Cummings, Sue Cameron, Carol Visser, Walter Cook, Ed Rogers, Gordon Johnson, Rusty Wales and Bobby wish to remember him with love. Posted on October 5, 2014
 Never too late! On February 26, Rusty Wales with his friends made time to visit with Ken Doane at the California Home for the Adult Deaf (CHAD) in Arcadia. They had a great moment. Arleen Dobravolskis who works there owns the Harley-Davidson bike. She let him sit on it for posing some pictures. He was overwhelmed. They could not imagine how he handles this big bike.

Salute, My Fellow WineLovers and Friends of CSDR!
It is beautiful Summer Time! Below is the link to the new 2012 summer edition of Deaf Grapevine: When hot weather hits in the Pacific Northwest where it is normally cool, I would be tempted to bypass on the wine and grab a cold beer. Wait! I realize my drinking too many beer could get me a beer belly from this high-calorie beverage. A wine cooler is a great summer drink which can easily be made with little or no effort. The recipes shown in this eNewsletter are flexible; for example, you can use ginger ale instead of club soda (yes a few more calories) and also you can substitute orange/lemon with other fruit that is available in your fridge. Breaking news: Deaf StompFest (Sept. 29 as in the flyer) is almost sold out! You truly will regret it if you couldn't get a ticket for this exciting event. It is so exciting to know that there are so many wine enthusiasts, more than we could have ever imagined!
Toast to your health! Posted on July 10, 2012
