cause. Read more inside.

Last, but definitely not

Folsom’s Historic District will be the

place cycling fans will want to be on

May 12 when the second stage of

the Amgen Tour of California is held.

Road racing opens May 11. The follow-

ing day, Folsom will host a time trial with

the starting and finishing lines only a short

walk from each other.

Page 5: Fle May2014

“The Historic District will be ‘ground zero’ so to speak,” Folsom Parks and Recre-

ation Director Robert Goss said. “The starting line will be by Snook’s Candies on

Sutter Street and the finish line will be on Leidesdorff near Wool Street. From Scott

Street to Reading, it’s going to be a festival. The team bus parking will be there and

it’s also where the riders will be warming up.”

Goss said when Folsom was a pass-through city for the Amgen Tour in 2011, the

race drew about 3,000 spectators on a rainy, chilly day. This year, Goss said he

expects the race the draw at least 10,000 fans.

The time trial will begin around 1 p.m.

and riders will leave from the starting line

one at a time, one minute apart. The last 10

riders to go, who will be the top-10 finishers

from the previous day’s road race in Sacra-

mento, will go out every two minutes.

Starting near Snook’s Candies, the riders

will turn left on Riley St. and cross Rainbow

Bridge before turning right on Folsom-

Auburn Road for the uphill climb to Folsom

Lake Crossing. After crossing the bridge,

which gives riders a great view of Folsom

Dam, the riders will proceed down E.

Natoma Street before turning left on Green

Valley Road. Riders will turn around near

Brown’s Ravine and make their way back

the way they came before pedaling over

Lake Natoma Crossing and turning left on

Leidesdorff and completing the 12.5-mile

course at the finish line near Karen’s Bakery.

Matt Colonius, general manager of Bicy-

cle Planet in Folsom, is excited for the

Amgen Tour to come to town.

“It’s a phenomenal opportunity to show cycling here in Folsom,” Colonius said.

“A lot of focus is on the race, but we have racing here in town because a lot of people

enjoy riding. A lot has been done to develop cycling opportunities in this city and

this will just build on it.”

Prior to the professional men’s time trial, the pro women will hold their own time

trial on the same course. An amateur time trial, featuring eight Folsom residents,

will be held prior to the women’s event.

“The Historic District will be ‘ground zero’ so tospeak. ... The starting line will be by Snook’s

Candies on Sutter Street and the finish line willbe on Leidesdorff near Wool Street. From Scott

Street to Reading, it’s going to be a festival. “Robert Goss, Folsom Parks

Folsom Symphonybeginning with the

2014-2015season.

FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER • MAY 2014 7

The end of a symphonic season will introduce a

new conductor for the Folsom Symphony. After

10 seasons, Maestro Michael Neumann will

retire to make way for a new leader.

Neumann will continue with the group as music

director emeritus.

Peter Jaffe, the conductor for the Stockton and

Auburn symphonies, will take over Neumann’s role

beginning with the 2014-2015 season. Jaffe will guest

conduct this season’s final performance, “Out of This

World,” May 31 and June 1.

“I’m very excited and supportive for Peter,” Neumann

said. “I was very involved in the process of who would

be following me as the symphony’s conductor. This is a

beautiful transition. I know the symphony is in good

hands with Peter.”

Neumann has been the symphony’s only conductor

since their first performance in 2004.

When he joined the symphony, Neumann was

already well known as the music director for the Sacra-

mento Youth Symphony, a position he will keep.

Neumann said his decision to retire from conducting

the Folsom Symphony came about because of a com-

bination of life events. He said he decided it was time to

step back and slow down.

“Folsom has been a significant part of my life, so this

decision was very difficult,” Neumann said. “But I think

in the long run this will be a positive decision for my life

and a positive change for the Folsom Symphony Orches-

tra. This will afford me more time with the Sacramento

Youth Symphony, which I began working with in 1979.”

Jaffe comes to Folsom with a broad background in a

variety of musical arenas including conducting the

Stockton Symphony since 1995, the third-oldest sym-

phony in California, and took over as conductor of the

Auburn symphony in 2012. He will continue in both of

these positions.

“This is a very exciting time and I am so appreciative

of what the Folsom Symphony and Michael Neumann

have achieved so far,” Jaffe said. “My mission looking

forward is to continue the legacy that Michael has left

us and strive for an ever higher artistic goal.”

Symphony concerts are performed at Harris Center

for the Arts, 10 College Parkway, Folsom.

The Sacramento Ballet will present their 2014 Modern

Masters program, including three original choreo-

graphed pieces, at Harris Center for the Arts at Fol-

som Lake College.

The show will run May 15-17. The Thursday and Friday

performances are at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday’s matinee is at 1

p.m.

Under the direction of Sacramento Ballet’s Co-Artistic

Directors Ron Cunningham and Carinne Binda, the fourth

piece, which opens the program, is George Balanchine’s

“Apollo.” At its debut in 1928, “Apollo” was instantly hailed as

a masterpiece, which has been described as the wellspring

from which all subsequent contemporary dance was

derived, said Steve LaRosa with the Sacramento Ballet.

According to LaRosa, this edgy, contemporary collection

of works will emphasize the power and impressive physical-

ity of the dancers.

The Folsom Tap House opened at the old Sport’s Garage location under the new

ownership in early April, at 25005 Blue Ravine Road, in Folsom.

According to owner Jeff Back, also the owner of Back Wine Bar and Bistro, the Fol-

som Tap House will offer local beers as well as small batch beers from micro brew-

eries.

“This will be a family friendly atmosphere catering to kids and families,” Back

said. “The community needed this kind of family atmosphere ... Kid-friendly

foods with hidden nutrition include whole wheat pasta for spaghetti and meat-

balls, baked chicken strips, peanut butter and jelly sushi rolls and a piglet in a

blanky. ...We really wanted to keep our food options

good, simple and unique for the kids.”

The restaurant will also feature chalk-

board tables for kids to color on and stay

busy during dinner.

Back said he is excited to open the new

restaurant with a more family friendly vibe than Back

Wine Bar and Bistro, located in the same parking lot.

“This is a lot of fun because these are two

totally different concepts, one for a nice

quiet evening out and the other

has more of a kid-friendly

focus for a family,” Back

said.

Q. What makes your restaurant unique?A. The Folsom Tap House is family owned andoperated. We really care about both the qualityand preparation of our menu items. We also incor-porated a lot of beer into our menu items to follow

our “Tap House” theme. Q. What is your signature menu item?A. For adults, I would suggest our spicy porterburger with crispy onion strings, apple woodsmoked bacon, ghost pepper jack cheese andour house-made porter barbeque sauce. All ofour burgers are made with a half pound ofAngus beef.

COURTESY CRYSTAL BASIN CELLARS

Crystal Basin Wine Ambassador Bob Kershaw sitswith Dozer at Crystal Basin Cellars in Camino. This isjust one of the many dog-friendly wineries in ElDorado County.

El Dorado County wineries pour on dog-friendly

smilesby laura newell / entertainer

Vino and

Every dog lover knows a

day out is not complete

without bringing their dog

along for the day. El Dorado

County understands that

mindset, and set aside a few

dog-friendly locations for

wine enthusiasts.

The wine trail starts in the

city of Lincoln, at the fami-

ly-owned Davis Dean Cel-

lars. Nestled in a red brick storefront

from Lincoln’s turn-of-the-century

railroad days, Davis Dean Cellars

has a classic, earthy interior with

easy, friendly service. Winemaker

Marshall Davis has really made his

name lately with the 2011 “Zynthia,”

a special Zin varietal that hits with

an ultra-fresh oak tint over its intel-

ligent black cherry liquorish base.

Driving out into Lincoln’s open

farmlands, the first rustic destina-

tion on the Placer wine trail is Wise

Villa Winery.

Set on a dynamic swirl of land-

waves draped in vines, the villa’s

modern Tuscan architecture looms

over a spattering of black oaks and

long stretches of golden grass.

Leaving Wise Villa Winery, a quick

drive east through the rolling coun-

tryside can bring you to Dono dal

Cielo Vineyard and Winery, Lone

Buffalo Vineyards, Mt. Vernon Win-

ery and a host of other vintner

havens.

Wine Trail maps are available at

each destination, or online at their

website, placerwine.com.

When an event is being held for the 31st time, it must be popular.

In the case of Folsom’s Run with Nature, the event continues to

draw nearly 2,000 participants every year. On May 17, the Run

with Nature will be held for the 31st time. One of the reasons the event is so

popular is because it’s something the entire family can

enjoy. There are 5k and 10K timed trail runs, the 10K which

takes participants through Folsom Prison property, a non-

competitive 5K walk, a half-mile youth run through the

Folsom Zoo Sanctuary and the Wild Way, a two-mile obsta-

cle course that continues to grow in popularity each year.

“The 10k trail run takes you through prison property,

which is the one time a year you can do that,” said Susanne

Stockton, Folsom’s Community and Cultural Services manager. “The run is

very green and there are a lot of rolling hills. The youth half-mile race

through the park and the zoo is popular with the kids. Anyone with a bib

gets free entry into the zoo on that day. The Wild Way is two-mile long

obstacle course geared toward families competing together. We’ve got sev-

eral obstacles planned including a foam machine area, hippity hops, a tire

obstacle, a mud area, under/over obstacles and more. The Run with Nature

is a family event; there’s something for everyone. You can do one of the runs

or the walk and then you can do the Wild Way as a family or as friends or

neighbors or co-workers.”

“It’s great to watch family members or neighbors or colleagues working

together to overcome the obstacles,” Stockton said. “It’s a lot of fun.”

Relay for Life is a grassroots movement that

brings communities together to “finish the

fight against cancer,” Spence said.

The event will also include a luminaria ded-

ication.

“Luminaria bags are transformed and illu-

minated after dark at every local Relay for Life

event,” Spence said. “Each luminaria is per-

sonalized with a name, photo, message or

drawing in memory or honor of a friend or

loved one who has been affected by cancer.

Luminaria can also be dedicated in support of

a Relay participant. Each luminaria candle

represents a person. They are our mothers,

fathers, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, nieces,

nephews, friends, coworkers and so many oth-

ers.”

Luminarias can be purchased for a donation

of $10.

“Everyone is invited to come see what Relay

for Life is all about,” Spence said. “If cancer has

touched your life in one way or another we

encourage you to join a team, start a team, or

just come for one of our moving ceremonies,

like luminaria. … There are many other ways

you can help us finish the fight against cancer

including donating, becoming a sponsor, join-

ing our planning committee or helping with

day of volunteer tasks. We also welcome any-

one who’s ever heard the words ‘you have can-

cer’ to join us for the opening ceremony where

we would love to honor you as a cancer sur-

vivor.”

they dig

You wouldn’t really

call it a ghost

town, because a

few people still live here.

And the town of North

Bloomfield does not sit in

a state of arrested decay.

“Here, it’s a state of his-

toric preservation,” said

Matt Green, with Califor-

nia State Parks. “It’s really

a dynamic piece of prop-

erty. For good or bad ... it’s

what defined California.”

The good he refers to is

Malakoff Diggins, the

State Park which features

not only the historic town

of North Bloomfield, but

the industry which it was

born out of — mining.

The Diggins Pit is a

7,000-foot long, 3,000-foot

wide, 600-foot deep testa-

ment to the marriage of

avarice and ingenuity.

“By shooting water

against the hillside, fun-

neled through (cannons)

and canvas tubing, they

were able to mine the gold

more efficiently,” Green

said, “But it took away the

hillside and created Dig-

gins Pit.”
