CLEARLAKE, Calif. – U.S. Cellular associates are inviting the local community to their Clearlake store on Friday, Aug. 11, and Saturday, Aug. 12, for the store’s inaugural Customer Appreciation Celebration.
The store is located at 14896 Olympic Drive.
Store hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
There will be a variety of giveaways for anyone who visits the store and a mobile prize wheel where customers can use their smartphones to spin to win prizes that include accessory discounts, bill credits and other items.
With the sometimes crazy back-to-school shopping season in full swing, everyone is invited to stop by for a fun and unique shopping experience.
“At U.S. Cellular, we truly appreciate our customers, and we want to take this opportunity to express just how much we value them and want them to have a great wireless experience,” said Erryn Andersen, director of sales for U.S. Cellular in the northwest. “We encourage the entire community to visit our store, talk with our associates, and have an enjoyable time while checking out all of the latest technology and great deals available.”
The back-to-school season has historically been one of the busiest shopping periods of the year, and a time when parents think about getting their kids their first cellphone.
According to the National Retail Federation’s 2017 Back-to-School Survey, spending for back-to-school and back-to-college combined is projected to increase 10 percent over 2016 to $83.6 billion.
Additionally, the survey found that 35 percent of back-to-school shoppers intend to purchase a tablet, while 28 percent of back-to-college shoppers plan to purchase a tablet and 21 percent plan to purchase a smartphone in preparation for the school year.

SACRAMENTO – Gov. Brown has signed into law AB 1572, authored by Assemblymember Cecilia Aguiar-Curry (D-Winters).
This bill gives the California Department of Resources and Recycling Recovery, or CalRecycle, greater flexibility in ensuring locals comply with sustainable waste management law while reducing burdens associated with oversight for areas that exceed state requirements.
“California just took a stand against climate change by passing a landmark a Cap and Trade extension,” said Aguiar-Curry. “Sustainable waste management strategies are another way Californians can continue to fight global warming. When we reduce waste and divert organic material from in landfills, we reduce greenhouse gas emissions. AB 1572 ensures CalRecycle is implementing these waste management programs in the most effective way possible.”
Legislation passed in 2016 asks locals to divert 50 percent of all organic waste from landfills by 2020 and 75 percent by 2025.
These ambitious goals are in addition to other existing laws asking local governments to reduce waste at the source, increase recycling efforts, and safely handle hazardous waste.
Collectively, these laws will produce environmentally conscious waste management strategies at the local level.
AB 1572 is an important step in determining how to consolidate state review processes while achieving these sustainability goals.
“Our local partners are committed to sustainable waste management,” said Aguiar-Curry. “We need to make sure compliance review processes are not duplicative or overly burdensome, especially for those who far exceed state goals. I look forward to building on these successful efforts in the future. CalRecycle has been a great partner in achieving these goals.”
This is the second of two bills by Aguiar-Curry that were presented to and signed by the governor.
Aguiar-Curry hopes to keep up this momentum as the 2016-17 Legislative Session heads into its final few weeks.
Aguiar-Curry represents the Fourth Assembly District, which includes all of Lake and Napa Counties, parts of Colusa, Solano and Sonoma Counties, and all of Yolo County except West Sacramento.
