Metro TALK
A community service of the Greater Orange Communities Organization
Orange Public Library Foundation Postpones Ambriz Fundraiser
The Steve Ambriz Memorial Golf Tournament scheduled for August 7th, 2006, at the Alta Vista Country Club in Placentia has been postponed until spring of 2007. The postponement was needed to give organizers more time to get more golfers involved. The fundraiser is being organized by the Orange Public Library Foundation and will benefit the Steve Ambriz Storytime Room at the new Orange Main Public Library. For more information please contact the event hotline at (714) 288-2404. For Steve Ambriz Memorial Website CLICK ON: http://www.steveambriz.org/ .
Orange Public Library Issues Plea
Orange Public Library officials have issued a plea to local residents and businesses in the Greater Orange Communities to help locate old fixtures from Orange’s original Carnegie Library. The Carnegie Library was demolished in 1959 to make way for the current Orange Main Library, which opened in 1961. Library officials are looking for the old library’s fixtures or furnishings might have ended up in someone’s home, office, or store. If you have something, they hope that you will consider donating the items back to the non-profit City of Orange Public Library Foundation in exchange for a tax deduction.
To donate items from Orange’s original Carnegie Library, or for additional information, please contact the library at (714) 288-2471. For more information, CLICK ON: http://www.cityoforange.org/news/displaynews.asp?NewsID=200 .
Orange Communication System Election Coverage Kudos
The early local election coverage of the Orange Communication System’s (OCS) eLECTION Watch 2006 has garnered some highly deserved praise in the Orange County Blogsphere (O.K. full disclosure here in case you don’t know- Metro TALK is part of the OCS family of news services). The influential OC Blog took note of the “dogged reporting on who's pulling papers to run for various Orange local elected offices” and the Orange County Register’s political blog Total Buzz also mentioned the almost daily updates posted on the Greater Orange News eBlog. The Liberal OC Blog wrote "I wish there was somebody in every city doing what the people over at the Greater Orange blog are doing".
In addition, local blogs Orange Politicos and Orange Councilman Jon Dumitru’s blog Around Orange gave a nod to OCS’s coverage. To see the updated reports visit the Greater Orange News eBlog at http://greaterorange.blogspot.com/ .
