A celebration of Bob Dunning's unprecedented career at The Davis Enterprise.    In addition to the Virtual Celebration, our vehicle parade (car & bike) took place on Saturday, April 24 at 11 a.m., and was a huge success.

Over a hundred vehicles took part in the parade.  Footage was recorded by The Davis Enterprise on Facebook live, and a great video was compiled by the Yolo YoYo's here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2B5h-S5Ng4

This video by Davis Media Access serves as an archive of the event.

YED stands for Yolo, Education and Discovery and is a name play borrowing from the well-known TED-Talks. It’s an evolution of the Yolo Leaders summits that have been organized with local school, city and county elected officials and executive staff for over 10 years to gather and learn about issues of common interest.

On March 5, the Vanguard had a discussion panel on Yolo County Ethnic Studies Public Forum.

The discussion covered:

– What Ethnic Studies (ES) is and is not, from historical and academic perspectives;

– Why Ethnic Studies is needed in our schools and consequently in our communities;

– Updates on efforts to bring ES to schools in the county;

– Challenges in the work to bring ES to schools, and suggested solutions or steps to take (from the perspective of the panelists, including DJUSD educators);

If San Francisco were an hour closer to Davis, how would that change life in Davis? We might find out in the next 10 to 20 years, thanks to a program that is starting to take shape now. Link21, sponsored by BART and the Capitol Corridor, would add a second transbay rail crossing as part of an ambitious, expensive plan to extend rail connections throughout the 21-county megaregion that stretches from Yuba County to Monterey. The program’s components include faster Capitol Corridor train service between Sacramento and San Francisco, among other changes.
