Lucerne FLOW (Friends of Locally Owned Water) volunteers celebrated World Water Day (3/22) by holding a bake sale as a fundraiser for the organization. A big thanks goes to Kenny Parlet (Lakeview Market) and Larry Montgomery (Sentry Supermarket) for graciously allowing us to use the space in front of their stores.

Thanks to all the FLOW folks that contributed time, money, talent, and other resources – not to mention cookies, cupcakes, brownies, cheesecakes and Easter baskets.

A special thanks goes to donors from the Queen of the Rosary Catholic Church in Lucerne. The diverse array of sweet treats were sold out before the end of Saturday, making the two-day sale a great success.

Thanks also to the many people who stopped by the table to sign our petition to the California Public Utilities Commission regarding California Water Service Co.'s pending rate hike for the new treatment plant.

Dallas Cook is president of Lucerne FLOW.
