In partnership with the Del Mar Fair, the PQ Town Council will be releasing 40 new banners for its street banner poles, echoing the theme of next year’s San Diego County Fair– space and space exploration. The fair’s exhibits will center on astronauts, the space program, and science fiction pop culture.
The PQ Town Council is looking for 40 persons to feature on its banners who are somehow involved in the field of space. This is a very broad, loosely-defined category that includes persons working in science, engineering, research, the military, academia, writing, manufacturing, or any other space-related field of expertise or experience.
If you or someone you know is involved in any of these fields, please let us know! Nominate yourself or someone else to be honored on one of our banners. Professional photographers will be available to take photos for our banners from 4-8 pm on January 31, 2012, at Bad Ass Coffee on Carmel Mountain Road, opposite the Stater Brothers. Additionally, you can e-mail a photo – minimum size 1.0 MB – to us at our web site (www.rpcouncil.com), no later than January 20, 2012.
If you are interested in participating in this program or know someone who is, please contact us through our web site or call us at (858)430-9449 and leave a message.
Ralph Peters, Chair, RPTC Banner District

We are sad to announce that Gary Pehaim, our Town Council treasurer and good friend, passed away on Christmas Day. A memorial service to celebrate Gary’s life is scheduled for Saturday, January 7 at 2pm at Poway Bernardo Mortuary, 13243 Poway Road. Mrs. Pehaim plans to have an ‘open pulpit’ service so that anyone who wishes may share memories or stories of their life experiences with Gary. Words cannot express the loss. Gary was truly one-of-a-kind and one of the best people I have ever known. Please read more about Gary’s life here: Obituary

Getting ready to take down your Christmas tree? City curbside pickup is on your normal greenery recycling pickup day. Don’t forget– if your tree is over 4 feet tall, you must cut it in half. If you miss the curbside pickup, you can drop it off at Canyonside Park. The tree recycle area is clearly marked. Can’t miss it. Happy New Year!
