Library invites kids to fold paper at Origami Jam
Paso Robles Daily News

Got little ones who need something to do after school? The Paso Robles City Library is hosting an Origami Jam on Monday, Oct. 26 — a guided paper-folding session just for kids. The Paso Robles Daily News shared the news, and it's exactly the kind of low-key, screen-free fun our library does so well.
If you've ever watched a kid turn a flat square into a crane, you know the magic. Origami builds focus, patience, and fine motor skills, and it costs nothing but a piece of paper. Our library has long been a hub for families here in Paso, and free programs like this matter — especially with so many activities these days carrying a price tag.
Mark the calendar, bring the kiddos, and let them fold, crumple, and try again. It's a Monday afternoon well spent.

Paso RoblesLetter: Councilmember Kris Beal reflects on two years of service
District 1 residents, you may remember casting a ballot two years ago for a fresh face on the Paso Robles City Council. Councilmember Kris Beal recently took a moment in the Paso Robles Daily News to look back on that time in office — the wins, the lessons, and what it's meant to serve our corner of town. Local government can feel like background noise until it's a pothole on your street or a decision about growth near your neighborhood. That's why reflections like this matter: they remind us who's making the calls and why. Whether you agree with every vote or not, having a councilmember who communicates with residents keeps Paso Robles feeling like a small town, not just a growing city. Worth a read, neighbors.
Paso RoblesSchool board to consider $429,800 tennis complex design Tuesday
Paso Robles parents and tennis fans, keep an eye on Tuesday's school board meeting. Trustees will weigh spending $429,800 on a design for a new tennis complex at Paso Robles High School — and that price tag is just for the blueprints, not the courts themselves. The whole project hinges on Measure G-26, the bond local voters will decide on. So this vote isn't really about tennis; it's about whether the district gets shovels ready now so construction can move fast if the bond passes. Our Bearcats deserve facilities that match their grit, and a real tennis complex would be a win for students and the wider community that uses these courts. As Paso Robles Daily News reports, the board meets Tuesday. If you care about school funding or youth sports, this is one to watch — and maybe show up for.
Paso RoblesPaso Robles celebrates 96th annual Pioneer Day
What a weekend for Paso Robles! Spring Street was packed Saturday as our town turned out for the 96th annual Pioneer Day — nearly a century of honoring the folks who put down roots here. Grand Marshal Steve Hansen and Queen Cheryl Wilshusen-Savage led this year's parade, and if you've ever watched the crowd light up when the horses and vintage tractors come down the street, you know exactly why this tradition sticks. Pioneer Day is more than a parade. It's a reminder that Paso isn't just wine country and tourist stops — it's a real community with deep agricultural roots and generations of families who've stayed. Big thanks to everyone who organized, marched, and cheered. The Paso Robles Daily News has the full recap, so give it a read and mark your calendar for next year. See you on Spring Street in 2027!
