Turning 18?

There is no denying it; turning 18 is a milestone. On your 18th birthday you become responsible for yourself. No more asking mom or dad to sign your permission slips! Tattoos, piercings, lotto tickets, cigarettes… it’s your decision now (choose wisely). There is one more decision you get to make as well, and it’s a decision that will affect more people than just yourself. It’s deciding how to vote.

The next election will be on June 5th, and all voters in Solano County will be asked to decide whether or not to continue funding the library with Measure L. If haven’t registered to vote yet, make sure to get your voter registration form turned in before May 21st (that’s 15 days before the election). If you’re turning 18 between May 21st and June 5th, you still have to turn in the form before the 21st for this election. Getting your form in early is important because the Registrar of Voters will be sending out the vote by mail ballots on May 7th!

While deciding on how to vote for Measure L is important for our libraries this June, there are many more things you will get to vote on that are important too – you just have to register first. For more info about voting check out http://www.rockthevote.com/ and watch the video of John Legend, Perez Hilton, Darren Criss, and Bridget Kelly! You can even find music, interviews with bands and artist, and much more from rockthevote.com. Have fun!

Meet Miranda of Rio Vista.

By Susan Reeve

Seventh grader Miranda has lived in Rio Vista all her life with her large extended family. One great thing about her Mexican heritage is being bilingual. Another is her family’s Mexican restaurant that is popular with Rio Vista locals. Miranda greatly respects her mother for running the restaurant and raising such good kids.

Miranda loves being part of the family business. But right now this comes second to doing homework. Her parents often say “Do your homework first.” She tries to, all of it, no skimping or delaying. She would like to be a leader in high school, such as class president.

Saying “A sport is a good activity to put on your college application,” Miranda plays AYSO soccer. She has traveled to Concord and Tracy for away games. She also plays basketball for fun. Miranda loves music and dance and having waist length hair.

Miranda’s message is: Set goals, stay in school and avoid drugs.
