The Lake County Land Trust once again enjoyed a successful fundraising dinner at the Saw Shop Gallery Bistro in Kelseyville, thanks to owner, Marie Beery, and her wonderful staff. E
Eighty people enjoyed the delicious dinner on May 14, with proceeds going to help us operate our Rodman Preserve, continue working on our Big Valley Wetlands Project, and to further our other efforts in preserving the landscapes of beautiful Lake County.
The event raised almost $5,000 for the Land Trust.
The Lake County Land Trust is a charitable nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization dedicated to preserving Lake County’s natural resources through education, partnerships, and land conservation. The trust owns and operates the Rodman Preserve near Upper Lake, owns the Rabbit Hill Park in Middletown and is currently working on several land conservation projects in Lake County.
The annual spring dinner at the Saw Shop in Kelseyville is one of two major fundraising events for the Land Trust.
Marie Beery, owner of the Saw Shop Gallery Bistro has been presenting this dinner for the Land Trust for many years and her generosity and hard work on this event are greatly appreciated.
Also very much appreciated are: the staff at the Saw Shop, this year’s sponsor, Dennis Darling of Foods Etc. of Clearlake; wine donors: Sol Rouge, Six Sigma, Mt. Konocti Growers, Moore Family Winery, Steele Wines, Ceago, Shed Horn, Langtry Estates and Vigilance; and musician David Neft who donated his excellent piano playing during the event’s social hour.
Thanks also to local media including Lake County News for publicizing our event.
Also, thank you to everyone who attended – your support is very important to us!
Roberta Lyons is president of the Lake County Land Trust, based in Lake County, Calif.

Recent ads from candidate Joan Moss have implied that Supervisor Rob Brown is putting the public at risk by his business as a bail agent. We would like to respond by saying that this claim could not be further from the truth.
We as deputies and correctional officers have worked with Supervisor Rob Brown in his capacity as bail agent as well as county supervisor and can attest to his professionalism and utmost concern for public safety in each of his responsibilities.
As a bail agent, Rob Brown has successfully worked with law enforcement to return hundreds of fugitives to justice. Rob has done this at his own expense and often puts his own safety at risk to accomplish this.
As a county supervisor he has supported our law enforcement agencies. In fact, Rob Brown has donated his own time and financial resources to build a building that is now used to interview children that have been sexually and physically abused.
Hundreds of individuals who have chosen to harm our children have been convicted as a result of this state of the art facility that Supervisor Brown was instrumental in building.
The Lake County Deputy Sheriffs Association conducted interviews of both candidates for District 5 supervisor and, without question, the outstanding and most qualified candidate is Supervisor Rob Brown.
Both the Lake County Deputy Sheriffs Association and the Lake County Correctional Officers Association are proud to endorse Rob Brown for District 5 supervisor.
Mike Silva is president Lake County Correctional Officers Association and Gary Frace is president Lake County Deputy Sheriffs Association.
