Quote Of The Day |
"Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value." - Albert Einstein |
Pumpkin Patch Season is Coming Soon! |
Only 3 DAYS LEFT until the gates swing open at Fog Willow Farms!
Everyone's favorite family fall tradition is almost here—pumpkin finding, hayrides, pig races, baby animals, and memories waiting to be made.
Mark your calendars→ Opening Day is September 27th!
Everybody seems to have favorite memories of visiting the country farm just outside of town. It is almost a rite of passage where the fall trip to the farm is passed down from generation to generation.
Some people long for the first sign of sweatshirt weather with the change in the seasons. Others love the hands on experience of all the animals, both large and small.
Many squeal with delight while enjoying the old fashioned hayride while eating homemade fudge and caramel apples. But nothing is looked forward to more than the family search for the perfect pumpkin.
That first sight of thousands of orange pumpkins in the pumpkin patch makes even the oldest of visitors turn into kids again. It is always one of everyone’s cherished family memories, year in and year out.

Maverick Fueling Station |
On September 18th the Elk Grove Planning Commission approved the proposed Maverick Fueling Station for the intersection of East Stockton Blvd and Grant Line Road. Project will be where the Wild Bill's gun shop and former John Deere buildings are currently. Those will be torn down.
The proposed development includes a ±5,951 square foot convenience store, two fuel canopies with a total of 25 pumps.
One canopy will have high flow dispensers for larger vehicles (i.e. trucks and recreational vehicles), which will have 5 pumps; and the second canopy will be for standard vehicles and will have a total of 20 pumps.
The intersection will be improved some for the development. A free flowing right turn lane from East Stockton to Grant Line will be added. It will be similar to the right turn lane from Elk Grove Blvd to East Stockton. Vehicles turning right will not have to stop.
A handful of people spoke at the meeting. Mostly against the project. Complaints were mostly about traffic, which will be an issue. Other complaints were about crime. EGPD reviewed the proposal and didn't have any issues with it. It will not a be a truck stop. There will be a 90 minute parking limit. No showers there.
