San Lorenzo Valley Area:
We are pleased to welcome three new members to
the SLV Sheriff's Center: New volunteers Penny Alvey and Bobbee Myers Rigby;
both bring a wealth of life experience and enthusiasm to our staff. The third

rescued by the SPCA in Watsonville and "adopted" our volunteer, Carol
Pavalina. Lola has obtained the proper Sheriff's Office colors (tan fur and
green jacket). She is beloved by the public and the staff!
Several new Neighborhood Watch programs have started.
