Nonprofit to host gala benefiting local children
Paso Robles Daily News
September 9, 2026
Mark your calendars, Paso Robles — Central Coast Funds for Children is bringing back its All for the Kidz gala this September, and it’s shaping up to be a night of big hearts and even bigger adventures. The annual fundraiser, which supports local kids in need across northern Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties, will feature auction items that’ll make you want to pack your bags: think trips to Belize and Dubrovnik, along with other one-of-a-kind experiences. It’s the kind of event where the North County community comes together to sip, bid, and make a real difference for our youngest neighbors.
What’s especially meaningful is that every dollar raised stays close to home — helping with everything from school supplies and sports fees to basic needs that can otherwise slip through the cracks. The Paso Robles Daily News shared the initial details, and we’re already excited to see the local wineries, businesses, and families rally around this cause again. Whether you’re a longtime supporter or new to the area, this gala is a wonderful way to connect with the generous spirit that makes the 805 so special. Watch for ticket info soon — and come ready to raise a paddle for our kids.

Paso RoblesLocal Scouting America troops to host open house Sept. 28
If you've got a kid between 11 and 17 who's been curious about scouting, mark your calendar for Sept. 28. Paso Robles Scouting America Troops 60 and 1602 are throwing open their doors and inviting both boys and girls to come see what it's all about — no pressure, no commitment, just a chance to meet the troop and ask questions. What I love about this is how much scouting has grown here on the Central Coast. Troop 1602 is one of the newer girl-inclusive troops, and it's a reminder that the outdoors, leadership skills, and that whole "learn by doing" spirit belong to everyone. In a town where we're lucky enough to have places like Lake Nacimiento and the Santa Lucia foothills practically in our backyard, getting kids outside and building confidence feels like a natural fit. Big thanks to the Paso Robles Daily News for getting the word out. If you know a family who's been on the fence, this open house is the perfect low-stakes way to check it out. See you there.
Paso RoblesLocal youth boxing program searches for new home
Impact Boxing Outreach has been a fixture in Paso Robles for eight years, giving local kids a free place to train, burn off energy, and find mentors who actually show up. Now the program is looking for a new home, and that's a big deal for the families who've come to count on it. In a town where youth sports and after-school options often come with a price tag, this program has been the rare free lifeline — no dues, no equipment costs, just a gym and people who care. Losing that space isn't just about boxing; it's about the routine, the discipline, and the relationships built inside those walls. If you know of an available space or can help, this is one of those moments where Paso Robles can show up for its own. Thanks to Paso Robles Daily News for keeping this on our radar.
Paso RoblesPaso Robles police, fire departments to host open house Oct. 7
Mark your calendars, Paso Robles — our police and fire crews are opening their doors on Oct. 7 for a free open house at the Public Safety Center. If you've ever wondered what goes on inside those walls, this is your chance to peek behind the scenes. Expect vehicle displays, live demonstrations, and tours of the departments. It's a relaxed, family-friendly way to meet the folks who show up when we need them most — and honestly, that connection matters in a town like ours, where neighbors still know neighbors. The Paso Robles Daily News has the details, so keep an eye out and bring the kids. These are the people who keep our corner of the 805 safe, and a morning spent shaking their hands beats anything else on the calendar that day.
