Free Movies, Books, TV Shows and More…Right in Your Community
June 3rd, 2010
I love to read. I love to watch movies. And I love to save money. With the cost of books and movies rising, these three loves rarely go together; however, I have recently found that all of these loves really culminate into one great love…a love for the library.
Not only can you borrow books (for FREE!) but you can borrow movies, television shows, even music. The online reserve system allows access to numerous library collections and, with it, almost everything is an option if you’re willing to be a little patient.
Going Out of Town for Memorial Day?
May 29th, 2010
As summer vacations are quickly approaching, it’s comforting to know that Folsom Police volunteers will keep an eye on your house while you are away. Trained Citizens Assisting Public Safety (CAPS) volunteers will check doors and windows and walk around your home and property to be sure everything is secure while you are away. They will maintain a written log and notify the Police Department if they see anything suspicious. Now you can stop worrying about your house and just enjoy your vacation!
Contact Rosie Kessell, the Police Volunteer Coordinator, to request this free service while you’re away, (916) 351-3409 or rkessell@folsom.ca.us.

You can enjoy music, ice cream and free bike safety checks on your lunch break. There will even be bike valet parking!
New Businesses Coming to Folsom
May 11th, 2010
Every time I drive past new commercial construction or a For Lease sign, I always think, “I wonder what’s going to be there?” As new developments seem to be popping up throughout Folsom, I decided I would look into what’s on the horizon for Folsom businesses and found a really useful site offered by the City of Folsom’s Economic Development Department. Every month, the Economic Development Department releases an updated list of all new businesses with proposals to come to Folsom as well as their current status. Check it out. I’m especially excited about the Sonic Drive-In and Whole Foods.
Be on the look out! New business is coming to Folsom.
Chelsey’s Top 5 Breakfast Places In Folsom
May 3rd, 2010
I love breakfast. The only meal I love more than breakfast is brunch, so I’m always on the lookout for good places to get a great breakfast. Here’s a list of my favorite five:
1. Karen’s Bakery
705 Gold Lake Drive #340, Folsom, CA 95630
Breakfast Hours: M-F, 6-11am, Sat 7-noon
A Folsom staple, Karen’s Bakery offers a huge selection of homemade baked goods and breakfasts. My recommendation is the Granola with Vanilla Yogurt and Fresh Berries, although it’s hard to go wrong with much on the menu. Slightly pricy and certainly not a traditional breakfast (they only serve eggs scrambled), Karen’s has a gourmet feel and plenty of charm. They even have great coffee and espresso drinks!
