This commemorative exhibit will be located in the heart of the California Building. It will run for the duration of the fair, which began Friday and will last through Monday, Sept. 7.
Under the guidance of, and with contributions from the California NAACP, this exhibit will highlight 12 civil rights pioneers that have been immortalized by the U.S. Postal Service through a special series of postage stamps commemorating their courage, commitment and achievements.
These stamps will be presented as enlargements with an accompanying text. The history of the NAACP will be told through a timeline detailing historic and significant events from the last 100 years. Within the exhibit, Fairgoers will be able to see inspirational quotes, resolutions, a compelling DVD and more.
Founded in 1909, the NAACP is the nation's oldest, largest and most widely recognized grassroots-based civil rights organization. With more than a half-million members and supporters throughout the United States and the world, the NAACP is the premier advocate for civil rights. Celebrations highlighting the significant role that the organization has played in leading social change over the past 100 years have been occurring all across America , and will continue until 2010.

UPPER LAKE – A two-day Lake County Vehicle Amnesty is scheduled on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 28 and 29, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Last Mile Auto, 1205 W. Highway 20 in Upper Lake.
Lake County residents are encouraged to dispose of old cars and noncommercial trucks of one-ton or less capacity.
“This program is for all Lake County property owners including those in the cities of Clearlake and Lakeport,” said Voris Brumfield, Lake County Code Enforcement Manager.”
The local California Highway Patrol, Department of Motor Vehicles, Code Enforcement and salvage yards are helping people clear their yards, garages, fields and barns of vehicles and parts they are not using. Property owners and tenants are encouraged to dispose of abandoned, inoperable vehicles and parts, at no cost to them now. Extra tires and trash must be removed from the vehicles before being taken to the salvage yard, Brumfield said.
“We want people to know that if the vehicle is not currently registered, a no-fee one-trip permit per vehicle is available from DMV in Lakeport,” Brumfield concluded.
A title is not required to dispose of vehicles; CHP officers and volunteers, as well as Code Enforcement staff will be on site to assist with the necessary forms to release ownership.
Extra motors without oil and other vehicle parts and batteries may be brought to any of the sites for free disposal. Motor homes, school buses, and travel trailers, extra tires or garbage will not be accepted during Vehicle Amnesty Days.
Vehicle Amnesty Days for Middletown Towing, in the city of Clearlake, is scheduled Sept. 11 and 12 and Kelseyville Auto Salvage is scheduled Oct. 2 and 3.
